[upbeat music]

[Announcer] Live! Well, animated from the studios of the Garfield Show.

It's the first annual Golden Lasagna Awards.

And here's your host...Garfield Cat.

[applause]

Thank you, thank you. Thank you.

How about a little more?

-[applause] -Thank you.

Thank you.

Tonight, because excellence must be recognized,

we're saluting superior work on the best show on television.

This one.

Each winner will receive one of these handsome trophies.

[audience] Oh!

It's hard to believe.

What's hard to believe, Nermal?

I don't have one of those.

But I will.

Without further ado,

our first award is...

"Best Performance by a Character in a Scene Involving Food."

And the nominees are...

Eddie Gourmand in the episode,

"Yankee Poodle Dandy."

I'll just try one of these, whatever they are.

I don't think you want...

Mmmm. This is exquisite.

Madam, what do you call this tasty treat?

Dog food.

"Dog food"?

Dog food.

[screaming]

I ate dog food.

But with a little parsley, it wouldn't be bad.

[applause]

Our next nominee in this category is

Vito Capilleti for his role in "Mozzarella Madness."

Please...you must forgive me. You must.

I was foolish, I admit it.

If you could somehow find it in your heart to spare me,

I would be grateful for all eternity.

Well, just this once.

But next time, don't forget the black olives.

[applause]

And our final nominee in this category is...

it seems to be me,

Garfield Cat in "Camping Out."

We're going to be out here in the middle of nowhere for two weeks.

We're miles from any restaurants, miles from any markets.

We'll be making do with just the supplies we brought.

Do you understand?

Uh uh.

And you're okay with that?

Well. I apologize, Garfield. I misjudged you.

Okay, I'm going to unpack the car.

[barking happily]

[intriguing music]

[knocking]

Here you go, little pussycat.

One hot, steaming dish of sausage lasagna, just as you requested.

[gobbling]

He had to do that to make up for forgetting the black olives.

[gobbling]

[applause]

And the winner is...

Come on. Come on.

Well, how about that? It's me.

[solemn music]

Rats.

Why are you disappointed? You weren't nominated in this category.

I was hoping for a massive write-in vote.

[victorious music]

Thank you all for this award.

I'm not sure which of you voted for me.

-I didn't vote from him. -I didn't vote from him.

Well, I sure didn't.

But it doesn't matter to me.

What matters is that I got the award

and somebody else didn't.

The next category, "Best Performance by an actor

in a role involving sleeping."

The nominees are...

Jon Arbuckle in "What Time Is It?"

[dramatic music]

[yawning]

No, Garfield. I will not get up and make you raspberry waffles for breakfast.

I'll settle for French toast.

I just got to bed an hour ago.

I'm going to sleep until that alarm clock goes off in seven hours...

at noon.

Good night, Garfield.

[soft music]

[cackling]

[snoring]

Three, two, one...

[clock ringing]

Ah, a good eight hours of sleep.

I feel like a new man.

I'm going to go make you raspberry waffles and French toast, Garfield.

Last July, I convinced him it was Christmas.

-[laughing] -[applause]

And the next nominee in this category is Odie the Puppy.

-[cheering] -[whimpering]

Please, hold your applause.

Odie the Puppy for "Fetching Fido."

[snoring]

Odie! I'm gonna throw the stick so you can fetch it.

[cheerful music]

[yipping]

There it goes, boy. Go get it!

[whimpering]

[tired bark]

[whining]

And the last nominee in this category is...

Well, what do you know? Me again.

[audience booing]

It's for my stellar performance in "The Snooze Reporter."

Wait! I think he's finally waking up.

Garfield, congratulations.

You've been asleep for over eleven weeks.

What do you have to say?

Just five more minutes.

And the winner is...

[drum roll]

It's me again!

[booing]

Fixed. This contest is fixed!

Nermal! Behave yourself.

I'm sorry. This is how I behave.

Our next category is "Best Performance by a Mouse."

Oh, that's great.

Garfield can't win in this category.

Wanna bet?

And our first nominee is...

Irv the Mouse

in "The Dangerous Mission."

This is a dangerous mission, Irv.

You don't have to do it.

Somebody's got to. It might as well be me.

Well, I wish you all the luck in the world with it.

Thanks, Squeak.

[dramatic music]

[buzzing]

We were right, Squeak. It's limburger!

[Garfield] The next nominee is Squeak

as the Newsmouse in "The Snooze Reporter."

He's finally...

Ok, we just saw this. We don't need to show it again.

And our final nominee for the "Best Performance by a Mouse" is...

Wow. You're not gonna believe this!

It seems to be me

for my performance in "Rat Cat."

Here's a piece of cheese for you

and one for you and one for you and...

Hi. I'm a mouse. What do you have for me?

And the winner is...

oh no, not again!

[booing]

I can't take any more of this!

It's a travesty of justice!

Excuse me. Excuse me. Pardon me. Cute cat coming through.

And the next category is,

"Best performance by an overweight orange pussycat

with stripes whose name is in the title of the show."

Gee, I can't imagine who's going to win.

[producer] We don't have time for clips.

What's that again?

We don't have time for clips.

Oh. I am informed we don't have time for the clips

so we'll do this the fast way.

The nominees are me, me and me.

And the winner is...

-Hey! It's me! -[booing]

Thank you! I couldn't have done it without me.

[angry muttering]

[entering phone numbers]

[Nermal] So, Bruno, you and your friends weren't invited to the ceremony?

Yeah, we weren't nominated for anything and we're angry about it.

Hey, who is this?

Oh... [coughing]

[low voice] Just a friend.

I happen to know this award ceremony is rigged.

One cat wins every award.

You should come down here and take care of him.

Good idea. We'll be right there.

Come on, guys. We're going to go down to that award ceremony.

[barking]

[ominous music]

When we get there,

we'll take care of that cat who keeps winning all the awards!

You see?

You can learn valuable information watching "The Garfield Show."

The commercial's over? Great.

I'll go present the last award.

[drum roll]

Thank you, thank you!

And now, the award you've all been waiting for!

The award for "The Most Fabulously Terrific Super Performer Ever!"

And the nominees are...

Odie the Puppy.

[cheering]

Thank you, Odie. And the next nominee is Nermal the Cat.

That's about the response Nermal deserves.

And the last nominee is...

Guess who?

[victorious music]

[applause]

[loud cheering]

[suspenseful music]

[intriguing music]

Okay. And the winner is...

And the winner is Nermal Cat.

Did you say "Nermal Cat?"

You did say "Nermal Cat!"

I'm Nermal Cat!

Thank you, thank you for that wonderful ovation

I'm sure I'd be receiving if anyone was here.

I can't tell you how much this award means to me.

I need to thank all of the people who've supported me

and helped me over the years.

And I would if I knew any of their names.

But I have to admit you like me.

You really like me almost as much as I do.

Hey! Can't you see I'm accepting an award here?

You're the cat who rigged these awards so he always wins.

[Nermal] Oh no, no, no!

That's not me. That's... No, no!

-[screaming] -[growling]

[panting]

[screaming]

Leave me alone! I'm an award-winning pussycat

and I haven't finished my acceptance speech yet!

[screaming]

Here, Odie. You can have this one.

[whimpering]

Awards are great. They make your relatives real happy

and you can sell the trophies for pretty good money.

[whimpering]

For that one?

You ought to be able to get enough for it to buy a real lasagna.

It's a lot better than gold.

[upbeat music]
