Gary Owens: Announcer

Quotes 

• Floyd Mouse : Some people like dogs.

  Garfield : A lesser cat would feel threatened by Odie's popularity, but I'm too big to let it bother me. Besides, my favorite show's on.

  [Garfield turns on the TV] 

  Announcer : [on TV]  Ladies and gentlemen, Odie and Friends!

  Garfield : ODIE and Friends?

  [to Floyd] 

  Garfield : We are very close to the end of civilization as we know it.

• Announcer : Yes, It Must Be True. The show that tells you all sorts of incredible things, which, since they're on television, must be true.

• Announcer : When no humans are around, cows discuss English literature.

• Garfield : For our last item tonight, an incredible but true fact about dogs. Dogs have no brains.

  [shows an x-ray of Odie] 

  Garfield : Observe this x-ray. See? Nothing, nada, empty. The lights are on, but nobody's home.

  [Odie whimpers as Garfield removes the x-ray] 

  Garfield : Remember that, folks. Dogs have no brains. If we say it on television, it must be true.

  [Garfield hears barking and growling, then is shocked to see that the audience is filled with many dogs, all whom are furious about his remark] 

  Garfield : Uh, no brains... and they... and they never harm cats.

  [terrified, Garfield flees] 

  Garfield : Because cats are poisonous! Chomp a cat and you die!

  [the dogs chase Garfield into a stage room and the door closes] 

  Garfield : All cats know karate!

  [the dogs start beating up on Garfield] 

  Garfield : Dogs love cats! It's true!

  [the dogs continue beating Garfield] 

  Garfield : Help!

  [the thrashing stops, the door opens, and a bruised Garfield walks out] 

  Garfield : I will never lie again.

  [Garfield collapses] 

  Announcer : That's right. He will never lie again. And remember, if they said it on television, it must be...

  Garfield : Oh, shut up.
