Garfield by Jim Davis for August 22, 2024

Again?

I first thought of that scene in The Garfield Show long lost lyman

You know you buy those multipacks of AA batteries and say you won’t live long enough to use them? My remote died today and I had exactly 2 batteries left in that pack. Now I have to risk buying another multipack

Is it still possible to get up and change the channel without a remote?

Check between the sofa cushions.

Oh, I thought Garfield learned that the lasagne was vegetarian.

He is no look even remotely amewsed do he.

Nooooooo. Remember when Homer had no T.V. and no beer?

It’s down the couch cushion along with 3 stale Cheetos, 4 M&Ms and a comb

I always have to hide my remotes when the grandkids come for a visit, but we have kept some old ones that don’t work anymore so the kids can play with them without messing up my t.v.Between the cable t.v., and the streaming services and the sound bar, if any or all of it gets messed up, I’d probably not be able to put it all back together again.

Or the cell phone… which could really be a good thing.

That’s a bummer (not really)

Have you tried checking the couch, Garfield? That’s usually where the remote is found hiding.

Know the feeling. It’s always panic time when I lost the BluRay player of TV remotes.

According to surveys the most common place a lost remote is found is the refrigerator.

Have you checked Odie didn’t bury it by mistake Garfield?

He looks pretty Garfield-esque to me. But thank goodness he didn’t lose his best friend. I LOVE YOU, ODIE!

Worse: our TV died last night! We’ve had it for almost 20 years. Let’s put it this way: it’s not flat.

It’s sad, I know how he feels ! Especially when the news comes on.

Same thing!

A longtime friend.

I’m with ya big kitty, time to panic!

Remember the Garfield comic strip from September 13, 1992? The remote was broken in that one. Jon’s reaction that time is classic! :>

So what channel is the TV stuck on?

Go ask Odie!

isn’t the TV remote your friend Garfield?

Misery!!

I guess there isn’t an app for that

I have 4 remotes

Alot of flat screens you need a remote to change the tv channels

Losing the remote is like losing your only child

Cheer up! Garfield you need to install this app call universal remote in phone and use it. Phones can be traced unlike remote.

My cable comapny recently changed from regular cable boxes to digital cable boxes where you can now use it for streaming services through your computer WIFI but the remote is very small and easy to lose, I make sure to keep mine in a bowl I keep on my stand at all times so I don’t lose it.

I would say that remotes will be a thing of the past. You’ll have to download an app remote on you phone. They might as well because most young people today are on their phones while watching TV.
