Customer reviews:  Really funny stuff! One of Jim Davis' best!, 2006-03-17
This holiday special was really good. I had never even seen or heard of this until it came out on dvd, so I picked it up. Oh my gosh. Funny! Especially Grandma. She never fails to disappoint in the humor department. And what's Jon thinking, trying to cook a fully-frozen turkey at 500 degrees for about an hour? It's clear Mom never taught him to cook. Garfield goes to the vet once again, if only for Jon's benefit. Can Jon keep Liz from being bored to death on their Thanksgiving date? Can Garfield survive his new diet? Can Grandma pull a miracle recipe out of the hat and save Thanksgiving? Buy this great cartoon and find out!
P.S. I agree with the previous review about storing food in the lower shelves. Didn't know people kept fridges down that low. Only in a cartoon.
 Turkey Day is coming but Garfield is forced to go on a diet, 2003-11-24
If there is one thing that kids are going to pick up from animated Thanksgiving specials featuring their favorite cartoon and comic strip characters it is going to be that cooking a Thanksgiving dinner is hard work (which would explain why the kids are parked in front of the television watching parades and animated Thanksgiving special featuring their favorite cartoon and comic strip characters while mom is in the kitchen doing the hard work and dad is staying out of the way watching football). This lesson is amply illustrated in "Garfield's Thanksgiving," where Jon (voice of Tom Huge) is in charge of doing the turkey with all the trimmings, which, you know, is never going to work (even with the magic counter). Meanwhile, a bad situation is made even worse when Garfield (Lorenzo Music) is forced to go on a diet just as Turkey Day is approaching. Throw Odie (Gregg Berger) and Dr. Liz Wilson (Julie Payne) into the mix and it is a good thing that Grandma (Pat Carroll) will be around to save the day. All things considered, this is one of the funnier Thanksgiving animated specials and is a good bet to make the kiddies giddy. However, as always, parents will have to watch this one at least once to explain who Orson Welles was and other jokes that are going to go right over the heads of the kiddies. Note: Actress Julie Payne is the daughter of John Payne ("Miracle on 34th Street") and Anne Shirley (formerly Dawn O'Day, who changed her name to Anne Shirley to play Anne Shirley in "Anne of Green Gables").
