    A Garfield Fan Reviews the Garfield Movie for As Long As I Can

    A Garfield fan reviews The Garfield Movie For as long as I can remember, I have been a very huge fan of Garfield. My parents owned a couple of the reprint books when I was a kid, and I loved to read and re-read them over and over again. I watched the Garfield and Friends TV show whenever I could, and I also got a lot of the Garfield books put out alongside the comics, like the Pet Force series. I probably got on the nerves of my parents and a lot of my friends just talking about Garfield constantly. And I loved his cartoons so much that he was one of my biggest inspirations to become a cartoon artist myself. If it weren’t for Garfield, I probably would have never set foot into art school, and you probably would have never seen me here on Deviant Art (or Furaffinity, or whichever website you‘re reading this from). So you could imagine when around 2002 or 2003 how excited I was when the Garfield website announced a movie adaptation. Around this time the comic was turning 25 years old, and the movie seemed like it would be a landmark commemoration. I remember checking the site constantly to get updates on who was being cast, which characters from the comic were appearing, and new characters created specifically for the movie. I didn’t like that the movie was going to be live action with a CGI Garfield rather than completely animated, but that wouldn’t mean the movie would be bad, would it? When I started seeing the first trailers for the movie, I didn‘t know what to think of them.

INTRODUCTION "If in past summers Hollywood seemed to surrender its creative soul to the making of sequels, prequels, spinoffs, remakes and franchise films based on comic books, television series or video games, take a deep breath and prepare for the summer of 2002."1 With these words, the New York Times' Rick Lyman dubbed this past summer "the summer of the spinoff."2 Although it is most apparent in the movie theater, mass media art of all types in the United States is becoming increasingly derivative.

PUB DATE Aug 94 NOTE 24p.; Paper presented at the Annual Meeting of the Association for Education in Journalism and Mass Communication (77th, Atlanta, GA, August 10-13, 1994).

DESCRIPTORS Audience Awareness; *Broadcast Industry; *Broadcast Television; Educational Television; *Federal Regulation; *Programming (Broadcast); Television Research IDENTIFIERS *Childrens Television Act 1990 ABSTRACT A study examined the effectiveness oT the Children's Television Act of 1990 in altering the marketplace for informational and educational children's programming on commercial broadcast television. Producers and distributors of nationally available series that commercial broadcasters were using in 1993 to meet the requirements of the Act were interviewed. Executives at all networks were also interviewed. The programs' budget, promotion, scheduling and success in the marketplace were considered. Results indicated that the law motivated broadcasters to use programming, but that broadcasters rarely made an effort to give the programs appropriate time slots or promotion. Many programs were low-budget; two that involved serious research received government funding for that research. Findings suggest that the legislation did result in marketplace changes, but that more explicit regulations and more government investment would be needed for quality educational and informational programming to be produced, scheduled appropriately, and promoted adequately to reach target audiences.
