* UnintentionallySympathetic: In ''Garfield on the Town'', when Jon calls Liz out of concern for Garfield being missing and potentially getting injured somehow, Liz's only response is to say in an annoyed tone, "Well, in that case, you don't need a pet hospital. You want a tow truck!" and hang up on Jon. Even if Jon ''does'' annoy her with his flirting (which he [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness doesn't do once in this scene]]), you'd think a veterinarian would be at least a ''little'' concerned about an animal being missing and possibly hurt.

*** Also when Garfield shuts off the TV, it's not on the same channel when he turns it back on. [[AluminumChristmasTrees Televisions used to reset to channel 3 when turned off]], [[TechnologyMarchesOn back then.]]

*** Blinky is also a reference to the real life [[Series/TheBozoShow Bozo the Clown]], who had various local TV shows produced across the country from the mid to late 20th century. The last Bozo show went off the air in 2001 and the character hasn't been relevant in kid's media since.

** The Christmas special has the very heartfelt, emotional scene where Grandma fondly, wistfully recalls her late husband and says how much she misses him. This scene has only become more iconic in the wake of the death of Creator/PatCarroll in 2022, with this scene being cited as the other highlight of her career second only to [[WesternAnimation/TheLittleMermaid voicing Ursula]].

** ''Garfield in Paradise'' features Jon staying at a motel where "the bathroom's down the hall". Nowadays, even the dumpiest motel would have an ensuite bathroom. Granted it only helps the joke as the whole point is that the motel is a slum.
