Boring With Hats, Too
Maybe Garfield Minus Garfield is where the producers of Battlestar Galactica got the idea for the Big Reveal in the last episode (okay, probably not). Here’s the site’s summary:
Who would have guessed that when you remove Garfield from the Garfield comic strips, the result is an even better comic about schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and the empty desperation of modern life? Friends, meet Jon Arbuckle.
Obviously, who ever is behind this is obviously some sort of dark genius.
Obviously.

No, no, no, no no no. Removing Garfield’s thought bubbles was being done a long time ago, and is infinitely funnier and smarter.

I’m not Lifafa, but de-garfing has been around for a year or so. IMO, some cartoons work better with the cat, some without.
A couple of other variations can be found here.

Thanks for the links kenB— I think it actually started in a Something Awful forum in 2002, but one never knows with something like this….
