Trivia

  • The Hawaiian Cat Flu was previously done in the comic strips, albeit in a somewhat different fashion.
  • "Silly Animal Stunts" resembles "Pet Search" in some ways.
  • When Polly (voiced by Frank Welker) impersonates Garfield, his voice is similar to how Welker would later portray Garfield.

Cultural References

  • When trying to get a cured Garfield to dance the hula, Jon mentions various aspects of Hawaii, including Don Ho and "Book him, Danno".
  • One of the auditioning acts (which appears to not be unique) is an octopus who tap dances and knits sweaters to music by Wayne Newton.
  • The impressions Polly does during audition are Bill Cosby, Paul Reubens (as Pee-Wee Herman), Jack Nicholson, Bob Hope, Clint Eastwood, and Mr. T.
