Jon Arbuckle (The Garfield Show, seasons 1-3)

Jon Arbuckle is the tritagonist of the Garfield franchise and one of the main characters of The Garfield Show. He is the owner of Garfield and Odie. He was voiced by Wally Wingert.

Why He's Loathsome

 * 1) Like how Garfield and Nermal got flanderized in the show, he was flanderized into a bumbling, idiotic, and unlikable jerk who was mean-spirited towards Garfield and Odie.
 * 2) He became more stupid than he was in the comics.
 * 3) He gives Garfield and Odie harsh punishments, even when they did nothing wrong, such as locking them outside.
 * 4) He even blamed Garfield for things Odie did when he was turned into a were-dog when there's no way possible that Garfield could've done those things proving his stupidity. Though to be fair, It makes sense why he thought Garfield ate the lasanga for 10 people, Garfield loved that lasagna and he tried to resist it, but it doesn't make sense why he thinks Garfield wrecked the room, Garfield suggested that maybe Odie did it, but Jon said "Don't try to pin this on poor, sweet, harmless Odie! Odie couldn't do something like this" Neither could Garfield!
 * 5) Even worse, when he saw Nermal's leg okay when it was "broken before" (Nermal faked the fracture), he thinks it's getting better, wow Jon, how stupid are you?
 * 6) His stupidity has gotten to the point where he starts becoming a bad owner to Garfield and Odie.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) He still takes care of Garfield and Odie.
 * 2) He apologizes for his actions.
 * 3) He's still funny.
