  • U.S. Acres (or also known as Orson's Farm outside from USA) is a computer-animated comedy musical film produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios. It is based on a newspaper comic strip of the same name by Garfield creator Jim Davis, which ran from 1986 through 1989.
  • U.S. Acres was a strip created by Jim Davis, far better known for his role as the creator of Garfield. The strip centralized 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 cat and dog, respectively
  • The strip was centered on a group of barnyard animals, with the main character being Orson, a small pig (the runt of the litter) who had been taken from his mother shortly after being born. The early days of the strip showed Orson's life on his old farm with his loving mother and mean older brothers. Eventually, due to Orson being a runt, the farm's owner wanted to dispose of him, so he put him in the back of his pick-up truck and drove off. However, due to a bumpy road, Orson fell off the truck and ended up in the woods where he was found by a young farm girl. She convinced her father to let him stay at their farm and Orson found himself living in "the funniest farm in the world," as some merchandise says. As he got settled, he met the rest of the farm's inhabitants and the series went on

According to the book Garfield's Christmas Tales, U.S. Acres is right next door to the Arbuckle family farm.

It is based on a newspaper comic strip of the same name by Garfield creator Jim Davis, which ran from 1986 through 1989. The film's plot is an anthropomorphic pig Orson Pig (voiced by Rob Corddry) who moved to new farm and meets and befriends with other farm animals such as Roy Rooster (voiced by Gilbert Gottfried), Wade Duck (voiced by Jesse Eisenberg), Bo (voiced by Josh Gad) and Lanolin Sheep (voiced by Anne Hathaway), two chicks, Booker and Sheldon (both voiced by Alex Garfi), and others.

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! The strips can be viewed at Garfield.com. For tropes present in the cartoon adaptation, see the listing at Garfield and Friends. Also known as "Orson's Farm" outside the US.
