Unless you have owned a Great Dane you, can not fully appreciate the comic strip. Some times they, (the strip) are corny, but most of the time, they are right on. After owning and being around different breeds of dogs, the Great Dane is the most unique. They are family oriented and truly become a member of the family. It seems as though you become their pet, but are very obedient and loyal. To who ever says the Marmaduke comic strip is tasteless, I reccomend they get a Great Dane, their minds will soon be changed. My day would be worthless if I couldn't read the strip every morning.
What you say would be more relevant if the jokes in the strip didn't all boil down to "Marmaduke is big and inconvenient." Having a great dane wouldn't make me appreciate this strip, because this strip is extremely repetitive, which ultimately makes it not funny. The strip being "spot on" about owning a great dane would be fine if it only made that kind of joke once in a while, but ALL of the strip's material consists of this. It's an extremely niche audience, and this makes it a poor strip to be in newspapers.
I don't need to own a great dane to appreciate Marmaduke. I need a run in with Cthulhu. Marmaduke isn't just tasteless, it's filled with madness and uncertainty.
i wouldn't say the comic is tasteless, just stupid and poorly put together.
and you say "My day would be worthless if I couldn't read the strip every morning."
you're pathetic. your days still are worthless, you just fail to realize it.
I love this shit and have for over a year now, and when it transitioned between websites, I got flustered and confused at the layout of the website, but I now see its up and running again. that being said, in the time where I thought this was all dead and gone, I started my own Marmaduke hatesite, and I cannot take credit for this trend, but I hope you all can enjoy my analysis' as well http://www.fuckyoumarmaduke.tumblr.com
At least with Garfield, the comics can be made surrealistically funny simply by erasing Garfield and his dialog from them. See garfieldminusgarfield.net. Not sure you can do anything like that with Marmaduke.

When you need Marmaduke to keep your life from being worthless then it might be time to end your life.
Yeah. In the very same way I had to own a beagle and a fat cat with telepathic powers to fully appreciate Snoopy and Garfield, respectively.

I am crying laughing reading this thread.

I feel horribly, horribly sad for you.

Marmaduke is not merely just a 'great dane' - he's a motherfucking beast of BAAAAZZNNNNNNSHHHSHSHSHSHS Wilson Phillips and Winstone Zeddemore.

All Marmaduke strips have the same punchline:
DUUUUR IT'S A DOG
The question is, what is less funny, Marmaduke or Garfield? A nearly impossible question to answer.
at least Jim Davis can draw arms lol
