Is that television wired to the table? And the table's not connected to anything...? This is a vision of madness!

Actual square TV too, not even 4:3

Wireless power but it doesn't have WiFi so it has a data cable for the Roku plugged into a router and DVD player that both live in the TV stand.

I expected the original to make more sense, but they're the same minus the cat. That's kinda funny because most of the previous edits felt a lot more surreal compared to the originals, and this one breaks that trend. I really like that from an artistic point of view.

I like a lot of comics but Heathcliff is definitely not one of them.

Why do you keep torturing us, even the originals suck for today standards

Taste is subjective. Some people just don't like absurdism. That's fine.

Garfield without Garfield was a brilliant idea. This is not only derivative, but also just not very entertaining

[–] FauxPseudo@lemmy.world 8 points 5 months ago

Garfield minus Garfield was a curated collection instead of an ongoing daily thing. Garfield minus Garfield was to show how existential things can get. This is nothing like that. This is showing that the comic is almost exactly the same even without the titular character.

Whether it's entertaining or not is subjective.

Amen. Art is about making statements. Well, it definitely does that. Not into it.
