Toonfomercial: Garfield shills for Alpo cat food (1990)

 While Garfield's creator, Jim Davis, landed an American Express commercial, Garfield starred in a series of commercials for Alpo when the pet food company began producing cat food in 1990.

Don't know who the actor is who appears to be playing Jon, Garfield's owner. It is, of course, Lorenzo Music as Garfield.


Reportedly, Music missed a subsequent taping, resulting in singer-comedian Tom Smothers filling in for at least one ad.
