U.S. Acres/YMMV

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Adaptation Displacement: The U.S. Acres shorts on Garfield and Friends are far more well-known than the strip itself.
  • Can't Unhear It: In later strips, it seems Bo was written with the surfer accent he had on the show.
  • Fanon: Many fans believe that U.S. Acres takes place in the same universe as Garfield, and that the farm is that of the Arbuckle family. This Garfield strip is particularly convincing evidence (Booker, Roy and Orson are present).
    • Plus two characters who look exactly like a miscolored Cody and Blue.
    • A book of some Garfield Christmas stories actually proved that U.S. Acres and Garfield do indeed live in the same world, though the farm on which Orson and the gang live is actually next door to the Arbuckle family's.
    • Also contributing to this is that the first part was canon in Garfield and Friends.
  • Hilarious in Hindsight: Roy is a brony.
  • Viewer Gender Confusion: Orson had long, feminine eyelashes in the first half of the strip's run and Booker called him "Mom", due to the fact that he sat on Booker and Sheldon's eggs before they hatched.
