Housecats are known to be aloof, but "cat-titude" reaches new heights in Get Fuzzy, the bitingly hilarious comic strip from cartoonist Darby Conley. Available daily and Sunday and appearing in 650 newspapers nationwide, Get Fuzzy is a wry portrait of single life, with pets. At the center of this warm and fuzzy romp is Rob Wilco, a single, mild-mannered ad executive and guardian of anthropomorphic scamps Bucky and Satchel. Bucky is a temperamental cat who clearly wears the pants in this eccentric household. Satchel is a gentle pooch who tries to remain neutral, but frequently ends up on the receiving end of Bucky's mischief. Together, this unlikely trio endures all the trials and tribulations of a typical family... more or less.
The National Cartoonists Society honored Get Fuzzy with a Reuben division award, naming it the Best Newspaper Comic Strip of 2002. There are a dozen Get Fuzzy compilation books published by Andrews McMeel: The Dog Is Not a Toy (House Rule #4); Get Fuzzy 2: Fuzzy Logic; Groovitude: A Get Fuzzy Treasury; The Get Fuzzy Experience: Are You Bucksperienced; Bucky Katt's Big Book of Fun; Blueprint for Disaster; Say Cheesy; Scrum Bums; Loserpalooza; I'm Ready for My Movie Contract; and Take Our Cat, Please; plus Get Fuzzy wall and box calendars.

ttarkA113 from yesterday, you may have hit on the one film (or, more properly, film series) that has no haters. On Rotten Tomatoes, they clock in at 100%, 100%, and 99%.

I love Ratatouille. It’s still too expensive to buy, though.

I prefer to make my Ratatouille. Yummo!

Ratatouille and No Country For Old Men were excellent films. I’ve seen both several times, especially Ratatouille -great Pixar work, story and voices, particularly Peter O’Toole as the food critic.

Hope they don"t have a review for CATS the movie. That will really set Bucky off.

I don’t think I have ever seen Rob so animated as he looks in the last panel. Now, he has even drawn Bucky into his angst!

Ratatouille is not “a kids’ movie”.

Close the computer and walk away slowly, Rob. Don’t make any sudden moves.

I like it when they make animated movies that are suppose to be for kids, but it’s actually very entertaining for the adults. Ice Age, Cars and Madagascar also come to mind
