Explanation[edit | edit source]

This strip essentially substitutes any mention of the names of Garfield characters with the first names of their corresponding voice actors in Garfield and Friends; to further the allusion, the original Garfield strip used fell within the run of Garfield and Friends. The author's notes initially make an allusion to the nature of the editing done to the original Garfield strip, and also make note of other roles Gregg Berger and Thom Huge did in Garfield and Friends; the same was not done for Lorenzo Music primarily due to the fact that his other roles besides Garfield himself were very minor roles.

The author writes:[edit | edit source]

For those who know their voice actors, the name in the final panel is about as subtle as Garfield's little reminder here. But I'll start with the first one.

Gregg is Gregg Berger, the voice of Odie. He's also Floyd, Orson, and the Announcer in the opening sequence.

Thom is Thom Huge, the voice of Jon. He's also Binky the clown, Bobby Buddy Bear, Roy Rooster, and Gort.

And, of course, Lorenzo is the late Lorenzo Music.

Original strip: 1988-12-16.

Transcript[edit | edit source]

{Garfield opens a box as Odie stands with his arms out.}
Garfield: That's right. Stay just like that, Gregg.
Garfield: {musically, to Jon} Oh, Thoooom.
{Jon looks at Odie, who has Christmas decorations hung on him}
Jon: I get the hint, Lorenzo.
Garfield: Subtle as it is.
