comment
U.S. Acres was a short-lived comic strip created by Jim Davis, far better known for his role as the creator of Garfield, and assisted by Brett Koth. The strip focused on a cast of talking animals who lived together on an unnamed farm: Orson, a pig with an overactive imagination and fondness for books Roy, a prankster rooster Booker, a yellow chick Sheldon, a partially-hatched chick Wade, a paranoid duck who is afraid of everything Lanolin, a really mean sheep Bo, her really kind (but not too smart) brother Cody and Blue, a puppy and kitten, respectivelyThe strip, begun in March 1986, was not a success (especially compared to Garfield), and it came to an end just three years and one month later in April 1989. As a result, U.S. Acres and its cast are much better-known in animated form, due to appearing in Garfield and Friends. There, it existed for seven years as the "B" in that series's A-B-A format — that's right, the animated version lasted more than twice as long as the strip did!They also have their own Facebook page, though it's been abandoned since 2017 and links to the now defunct Gocomics archive.The characters also appeared in the Android and iOS Garfield's Defense' games to help said title character against food aliens and zombies. Predictably they have also made the occasional cameo in Garfield's own comic strip.Known as Orson's Farm outside the US and on the Garfield and Friends DVD set, since the versions used are international instead of domestic. The strip is also referenced as such on the "Professor Garfield" children's educational website.The Viacom acquisition in August 2019 led to the rights to U.S. Acres transferring to them along with Garfield. While a new Garfield show was announced almost immediately, there is currently no indication of any new developments on U.S. Acres aside from the regular acknowledgement of it as Paws, Inc's only other IP. While Paws, Inc. hosted a complete archive of the strip on the official Garfield website for years, in June 2020 the entire Garfield website was shut down and took the entire comic archive with it. With the books long out of print and selling for hundreds of dollars, the comic is almost completely out of reach of casual readers now. It's unknown if Viacom intends to find a new host for the archive or reprint the strips in some form.

I Will Show You X!: The July 12, 1987 strip◊ has Orson thwart Roy's attempt to awaken him with bugle playing by putting bubble gum in Roy's bugle, which results in Roy getting stuck to the wall behind him with pink wads. Orson smugly greets Roy upon waking up with "Good morning, Roy", to which Roy replies by attempting to charge towards Orson while yelling "I'll good morning you!!"

comment
Tempting Fate: In the November 3, 1987 strip, Orson said even Lanolin couldn't ruin that day. She shouted "I just washed my car!" and it rained. In the March 24, 1989 strip, Booker blows on a dandelion seed head, causing the seeds to disperse and fly away. The flower next to it laughs at the seed head, only to be plucked by Orson immediately afterwards. Booker asks Orson to make a story scary in the March 15, 1987 strip. Orson being Mr. Imagination, it doesn't take long for Booker to change his mind. Booker encourages Wade to jump into a pool in the August 30, 1987 strip, telling Wade that his inner tube will keep him afloat. Once Wade jumps in, he slips right out of his inner tube and sinks, though he manages to save himself before drowning by drinking the pool water. In the April 9, 1986 strip, Orson finds a book of jokes and claims that he's in the mood for a good laugh. Upon opening the book, he finds himself the target of a joke. In the November 13, 1986 strip, Orson warns Roy not to eat corn so close to the stove, but Roy dismisses him. It turns out to be popcorn, which promptly pops inside Roy's body, much to his discomfort. In the June 24, 1987 strip, Booker decides to do a cannon ball dive with a jump onto the springboard. It bounces him off in the direction from whence he came. Orson, after donning his "Power Pig" costume, declares himself leaping over barns in the August 22, 1987 strip. He ends up slamming into a wall of a barn. In the October 17, 1988 strip, Booker succeeds on getting onto a hammock. He claims "Victory!", only for the hammock to flip him off it. In the November 15, 1988 strip, Bo is excited to see the sunset, but Lanolin is not enthused, claiming sunrise and sunset always happen the same way. Cue the ensuing sunset taking place in a very unconventional way (i.e. turning out to be a flat disk and falling over after hitting the ground), which piques Lanolin's interest. Lanolin tells Roy to stop smirking in the June 14, 1988 strip, or else she'd slap it to the moon. Roy, however, dismisses her. Bad move — the strip ends with Roy's mouth landing on the moon. Possibly played with in the April 4, 1986 strip, in which Orson wonders where his food is, but a corn on a cob is thrown and hits him on the head before he even finishes the question. When Booker places a gigantic megaphone at Roy in the January 1, 1989 strip and claims "Prepare to Die, rooster!", Roy dismissively mocks him with "What are you going to do, cheer me to death?". Booker promptly throws a small snowball into the megaphone... which becomes big enough to cover most of Roy's body when it gets out of said megaphone. When Wade hears the sound of sleigh bells in the December 19, 1988 strip, he gets inside a chimney and looks upwards for Santa Claus. The strip ends with a large bag full of toys falling on top of him.

Your Mom
 U.S. Acres (Comic Strip) / int_1649e053
comment
Your Mom: The October 7, 1987 strip featured Booker plugging a hole and then yelling that the worm's mother was a garden hose. When the worm tried to return to the surface, it hit its head on the cork. The October 16, 1987 strip had a worm telling Booker his mother swam after garbage scows. Guess what Booker's "Mom", Orson, was ready to do at the end of the strip? Feeling bored in the December 11, 1987 strip, Wade told Cody his mother had fleas so Cody would chase him away. In the November 28, 1988 strip, Orson wondered why Roy considered himself qualified to be the judge of an "ugly face contest". When Roy said he knew ugly when he saw it, Lanolin jokingly mentioned "he should". Roy then asked "what was that about my (Roy's) mother?" The January 21, 1989 strip had Roy, over a frozen lake, teasing a fish by saying "Hey, fish! Your mother wears waders!" Then a strong fish breaks through the ice and drags Roy's face into water. Roy ends the strip with a broken and frozen face.

You Wouldn't Hit a Guy with Glasses: A worm invoked the trope to avoid a beating from Booker in the April 20, 1988 strip. Booker was initially proud to have shown "chickens do have hearts" but later banged his head on a tree out of frustration once he remembered "worms don't have eyes". A worm wondered if a fish would eat a worm with glasses in the October 16, 1988 strip.

comment
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: After three weeks of living with his mom and brothers, Orson was sent away and abandoned due to being a runt. It's accurate because often in pig litters, the runt pig doesn't get fed because it can't fight the other pigs for a suckling spot on his mom. And If a farmer doesn't want to raise it, they'll try to give it away. And if another farmer doesn't want to raise it, it'll either starve to death or be put out of its misery by rifle.

Downer Ending: In the final weekday strip◊ (originally published April 15, 1989), Orson looks at the newspaper only to realize their strip wasn't there and he disappears. The Sunday strip offered a more heartwarming farewell in the May 7, 1989 strip◊ by having Orson, Booker and Sheldon watching themselves on TV and Orson aping Porky Pig's "That's all, folks" .

False Reassurance: The worm dressed as a chicken to trick Booker and Sheldon in the November 26, 1987 strip◊ told them he knew what he was doing in response to Booker warning him that the worms will hear him. The end panel shows a bunch of worms waiting for their chance to harm Booker and Sheldon. When Lanolin knitted Orson a scarf in the March 27, 1987 strip◊, Bo was worried Lanolin was pulling a trick on him (Orson). She said she wasn't and then it's revealed the scarf was made of Bo's wool, as Orson walking away with the scarf causes Bo's wool to unravel and leave him naked.

Fur Is Clothing: Parodied in the April 10, 1988 strip◊, where Roy and Lanolin roll up the feathers/wool around their arms as if they were sleeves, then yelp in pain at the realization that they do not have sleeves and just painfully yanked their feathers/wool out. Played straight in the May 1, 1988 strip, which has Lanolin remove her wool so she can cool off in a pond on a hot day. Roy attempts stealing it, before she grabs him and drags him into the water. Next panel, Lanolin is wearing Roy's feathers, and he's chasing after her to get them back while wearing her wool.

Meaningful Name: The name "Orson" sounds like the word "porcine", meaning "pig-like", befitting a pig. Orson gave Booker that name because he (Orson) likes to read, making Booker glad Orson didn't like kumquats. Lanolin is named for a type of wax secreted by sheep. Sheldon is called Sheldon because he's just an egg shell with legs.

When a hole-to-hole salesworm shows up at a hole in the September 1, 1988 strip◊ and asks if the worm who answered was "the man of the house", he responded "I'll get her".

The Un-Smile
 U.S. Acres (Comic Strip) / int_a823fa03
comment
The Unsmile: Taken to comedic extreme in one strip. After studying a book on smiling, Roy and Lanolin dare each other to make a broader smile. The final panel shows Orson gaping at two giant toothy mouths that stretch past the top of the strip. In an earlier strip, Orson tries to coax a smile out of Lanolin. She notes with a scowl that she is smiling. Orson asks for a bigger one, leading to a huge teeth bared grimace.

Too Dumb to Live: Bo. For example, the August 19, 1987 strip shows that he's too dumb to understand that he has to turn the TV on before he can watch it. Wade is this as well. He falls off cliffs, when he can just fly to avoid injury. He goes ahead and just sits under a place where a boulder above him could easily fall and squish him. He even places his bed right on the cliff, where he ends up falling from, once he got out of bed.

Character Check: Though a few characters went through Adaptational Personality Change in the cartoons, the "Quickies" usually adapted gags from the comics loyally, meaning the cast would regularly behave exactly as they did there. This is particularly obvious with Bo and Lanolin in some Quickies.

Shout-Out: The October 28, 1987 strip◊ has Orson as Power Pig declaring that he is "Fast as a speeding bullet! Strong as a locomotive!" Once he realizes his imagination took him to pre-history in the April 3, 1989 strip◊, Orson says "I don't think we're in Kansas anymore". In retaliation for Roy intruding on Orson's "swimming pool" in the May 11, 1986 strip,◊ Orson dives on Roy, prompting the intruder to say "The sky is falling! The sky is falling!" The April 10, 1986 strip has Orson looking for a book to help himself relax. He remarks that one of the books is too small, and another one is too big, and the third one is just right. The unused horse character Jodie has a similar coloration to Applejack.

Since the relation between Booker and the worms is Road Runner vs. Coyote, with Booker himself playing the role of the coyote, any occasion where he manages to catch a worm is this trope.

Exact Words
 U.S. Acres (Comic Strip) / int_e9e35e8f
comment
Exact Words: Booker dared a worm to show his face in the March 4, 1989 strip.◊ The worm then showed a portrait. During the ugly face contest arc, Roy told Lanolin she couldn't "make a reeeally ugly face".◊ He forgot to specify whose face was supposed to be made ugly, as she ends up twisting Roy's face into a grotesque visage. Orson was trying to take Bo's photograph in the July 21, 1987 strip and asked him to show his teeth.◊ Bo removed them from his mouth. In the August 2, 1986 strip◊, Roy declares that "Water that touches pig lips will never touch" his. Aside from the fact that he doesn't have any lips, he drinks Orson's water through a straw so any lips he could have wouldn't be touched. Orson, upon finding Booker and Sheldon watching TV inside the barn, suggests for them to "go outside and do something" in the August 18, 1987 strip.◊ Too bad Orson forgets to specify what the "something" he recommends them to do is, as the two chicks just continue watching TV outside the barn. When Booker and a worm he catches are hanging from a cliff while Booker is holding him in the April 27, 1988 strip, Booker tells the worm to "do something".◊ The worm promptly shakes his lower body repeatedly, with Booker banging on the rocky cliff, in the attempt to shake Booker off. In the October 3, 1987 strip◊, a flower is worried when Orson shows up, fearful that Orson might pick it off the ground, and its thought is thinking "please don't pick me" repeatedly. The strip ends with Orson sitting on it. When Bo sneezes in the August 30, 1988 strip, Lanolin pulls out a handkerchief and tells Bo to "blow".◊ She intends for Bo to blow his nose with it, but Bo blows the handkerchief instead. In the May 23, 1987 strip◊, Sheldon suggests to Booker on a hot day that he should make sure his plant has plenty of water to drink. Too bad Booker's solution involves giving his plant a glass of water with a straw, neglecting the fact that plants can't drink through the straw.

comment
Team Rocket Wins: Since the relation between Booker and the worms is Road Runner vs. Coyote, with Booker himself playing the role of the coyote, any occasion where he manages to catch a worm is this trope. The November 2, 1987 strip, for example, has the worm become flattened into an accordion-like shape and played like an accordion by Booker. Similarly Roy was nearly always on the recieving end against Lanolin. He did get the last laugh in one Sunday strip however, when the two get into a crow/bleat match and Roy blasts her with a speaker system. Incidentally this ended up one of the first Quickies in Garfield and Friends.

Comically Missing the Point
 U.S. Acres (Comic Strip) / int_fbd285b7
comment
Comically Missing the Point: In the March 31, 1987 strip◊, Orson told Booker and Sheldon the story of the boy who cried wolf and Booker learned the boy... needed a big club to hit the wolf with. Orson isn't too pleased about Booker not realizing the real moral of there being consequences to constantly lying about emergencies. In the November 3, 1988 strip◊, a worm tries to sell gloves to another worm. When his potential customer got inside home without even speaking to him, he thought she went inside to pick up her handbag rather than the obvious reason a worm wouldn't be interested in buying gloves. In the August 26, 1987 strip◊, Orson believes goalies must be ready to spring at any moment to avoid being hit with the ball. It takes a special kind of stupidity to not see that the point of the goalie is to have someone prevent the ball from entering the net. The June 8, 1986 strip◊ has Orson offered a bucket by Booker when he's having trouble getting water from a pump. Instead of drinking the water after collecting it in the bucket, Orson just stands on the bucket while working the pump and continuing to waste water.
