Garfield: The Meme, The Myth, The Lasagna (ft. Quinton Reviews) | Flyover Culture

Or, How I Learned To Stop Worrying and Hate Mondays
For over 40 years, Garfield has been many things to many people: A beloved comic strip character; a ubiquitous merchandising figurehead; and, most recently, a Monday-hating memelord.
Join us on this episode of Flyover Culture as we attempt to make sense of Garfield's extensive history and perplexing present - and maybe figure out what to do with all of it.

I can’t believe that I have lived in Pendleton my entire life and grew up reading Garfield (including at the Pendleton library) and never once knew anything about the town’s ties to Garfield. Thank you for making this video! I’m definitely about to go around and show everyone here lol

[@snoogleflorp9237]

I don't often comment on things but damn, only 600 views on this video is criminal. Really well edited, well written, informative stuff.

[@FlyoverCulture]

Hey, thank you! I really appreciate that.

Back in the early 2000s when I was a young teen I used to get the garfield books from the library and one day my brother gave me a dvd of the garfield and friends show from the 90s and I was convinced those were relicks of a bygone time. And now you tell me those were the HIGHT of Garfield? Oh boy...

[@guillaumechau6082]

Man Garfield sure has a lot of history doesn't he?

[@FlyoverCulture]

Garfield is the past, the present and the future. We're all just living it.
