Garfield, With or Without Friends Quiz

Answer: 1982

Garfield mentions that the movie was underappreciated. As he put it, "A cinema classic! To think they gave the Oscar that year to Gandhi." Therefore, the film came out in 1982, the same year that Gandhi did.

Answer: No state here

When the great explorer Arbuckle Vespucci was designing the map of the United States, he accidentally left a blank square in the middle right after running out of states. His helpful cat assistant wrote in the word "Wyoming" to denote the lack of a state in that space.

Answer: Elm Avenue, two blocks down

Garfield inherited the Klopman Diamond from Jon's third cousin twice removed, whom Garfield ate out of house and home on multiple occasions. Bundled with ownership of the Klopman Diamond came a terrible curse, causing bad luck to befall him wherever he went, including being whacked with an ottoman, having an entire bookshelf fall onto him, and getting covered with cement.

Nermal doesn't live across the street. If he did, he would probably visit more often. Garfield would not be thrilled.

Answer: The Doodah Bros. Circus

The Schwartz Brothers were attempting to set the world record for "standing on your brothers' shoulders". Their previous record was eight Schwartzes, but while trying to stack a ninth, Binky screamed (as Binky is wont to do) at the bottommost Schwartz, startling him and causing the entire tower to topple.

Answer: East Moline

A milkman from East Moline, Illinois was the last person in America who didn't have his own talk show, so they (whoever "they" are) gave him one. This was during Garfield's "2001: A Space Odyssey"-esque dream sequence in "Video Victim", when Jon bet Garfield that he couldn't go for 24 hours without watching television. Unfortunately, the TV had other plans.

Answer: Thermy

Thanks to a company called Lobsters on Wings, Jon received a lobster to cook that, he later discovered, he couldn't bring himself to boil alive. He tried sending it to an aquarium, but the aquarium was swamped with donations from hundreds of other people who received lobsters from the same company and didn't want them either. Eventually, Jon, Garfield, and Odie took a trip to the Atlantic coast and set Thermy free.

Answer: Airplane!

While the entire episode stuck pretty exclusively to parodying "Star Trek", including inscrutable technobabble from Bo (as a science engineer) and villainous Porkons (analogous to Klingons), there was a running gag that Orson's crew would frequently start sentences with, "Surely..." and Orson would respond with, "...and don't call me Shirley!"

Answer: Go

Cactus Jake met his wife, Annie, in 1945 while trying to make a name for himself in the Wild West. After feeding a cat that suspiciously resembled Garfield, the cat stuck around, becoming his go-to farmhand. Due to not-Garfield's enormous appetite, the cat was thrown out of multiple establishments, forcing Jake to shell out quite a bit more money than he had.

At this point, some of the town's riffraff started making fun of Jake for his so-called worthless cat. When Jake defended him, the bullies attacked, but Jake stuck to his guns (so to speak). Annie was so touched by this noble gesture that she agreed to go steady with him and, eventually, she became his wife.

Answer: The mashed potato ice cream bar

While camping with Jon, Garfield didn't know how to cook a TV dinner over a campfire, so he decided to try eating it while it was still frozen. Suffice it to say, he was unimpressed.

Garfield did mention, in "The Legend of the Lake", that E. Leopold Witznitzki wasted over six million dollars trying to perfect the inflatable scratching post, but he didn't say that no one would get rich off of it.

Answer: Cats are poisonous

After telling his studio audience that dogs don't have brains, the audience (being entirely composed of dogs) retaliated in full force. In another attempt to stop from being devoured whole, he also mentioned that all cats know karate. It didn't work.
