The Garfield Shorts (or Garfield tout court in France) is an animated show of 40 second episodes that served as promotional content for each season of The Garfield Show, produced by Dargaud Media and distributed by Mediatoon Distribution. The shorts aired on Boomerang in the EMEA regions. Produced in tandem with The Garfield Show, each season of the latter contains their own set number of shorts. According to Mediatoon’s website[1], there are 54 shorts and 80 songs: Season 1 contains twenty-six shorts, revolving around a running theme of visual gags. Season 2 contains twenty-eight shorts that serve as public service announcements (PSAs). For seasons 3 and 4, eighty shorts were produced, each one a unique song.

As the shorts in season 1 contain no dialogue, Boomerang in EMEA regions aired the shorts with English text. In France, the shorts aired on France 3 with French text. The shorts were included on both the American releases of The Garfield Show, released by Vivendi Entertainment and Cinedigm, and the French releases of Garfield & Cie, released by Citel Video.

Shorts

Each DVD from the United States contains five shorts. Of the first season, only twenty-five out of the twenty-six shorts were released on DVD. Of the second season, only twenty-five shorts of twenty-eight were officially released. No shorts from season 3 or season 4 were ever released within the United States.
