Advertisement for Barfs merchandise.

The Barfs is a Saturday morning cartoon in the Grand Theft Auto series appearing in the 3D Universe and HD Universe.

Description

The show is a parody of The Smurfs and Snorks. Like its real-life counterpart, each character has a unique personality and appear on numerous amounts of branded merchandise, such as Little Lacy Surprise underwear. However, unlike the Smurfs, the Barfs explicitly hate sharing, likening sharing to communism. Each Barf has his or her own firearm for "protection and fun" and have an unique serial number on their foot. Their names seem to be a play on the adjectives that can be attributed to kinds of vomit.

Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories

In Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, posters can be seen in Vice Point and inside Vice Point Mall.

It is screened on VBC.

A "new" episode is also advertised on Radio Espantoso. The ad starts with an announcer saying the show's broadcast time (Saturday morning at 9), claiming that The Barfs are "under attack from a familiar evil menace", but then, dialogue from the episode plays and this "menace" is revealed as an unnamed character (described as a "tiny purple person") simply seeking help.

The character tells Big Major Barf that his tiny purple people are starving. Big Major Barf refuses to help, saying that their situation is "un-American", but the tiny purple person insists, claiming that they've always helped the Barfs. Big Major Barf however says that the Barfs are self-sufficient and proud of it, telling him that they deserve to starve, then shooting him.

The tiny purple person screams and calls him a "major dick". The episode then is cut with the "moral of the story", where another Barf says "Today, we learned today that purple is a lot like red. Never judge a book by its cover, instead, shoot on sight!"

The announcer then repeats the show's broadcast time and the ad ends with the Barfs cheering.

Barfs: We're the Barfs
We're never red
We hate anything foreign
We live in a tree, separately
We swing like a rabbit warren
We're the Barfs
We each have a gun
Firearms is for protection and fun
Most of all, Barfs ain't cherry
We keep a natural anthem prairie
Big Major Barf: Big Major Barf!
Lady Barf: Lady Barf!
Chunky Barf: Chunky Barf, too!
Smokey Barf: Smokey Barf, heh!
Tiny Barf: Tiny Barf!
Fruity Barf: Fruity Barf, how do you do?
Barfs: Now you know our barfy song
Grab a gun and sing along
Cause before we're through
You'll be barfing too! (Bleugh!)
Announcer: Every Barf is unique, just like you and me! That's right, even though some Barfs look alike, every Barf has a unique serial number hidden on his foot, so no two Barfs are the same.
Kid: I love my Barf! He's unique, and he's never red, even though he lives in a tree. Mom, I want more Barfs!
Announcer: Now it's easy to get more Barfs! Just stop at any Pizza Stack location, buy two large pizzas, a pitcher of Sprunk, and a Barfs drinking glass of the day is yours for only $15!
Barfs: The Barfs! Yay!
Announcer: Available while supplies last.

Announcer: Don't miss a new episode of The Barfs, this Saturday morning at 9, when the Barfs come under attack from a familiar evil menace...
Purple Person: Big Major Barf! My bouncy purple people are starving! Our tiny purple crops failed and all our tiny purple lifestock was sold to hamburger chains, selling burgers to the Barfs! Please help!
Big Major Barf: This sounds like a lack of personal accountancy and a slow, but steady decline towards a welfare state. That's un-American!
The crowd is heard booing.
Purple Person: But, us bouncy purple people have always helped the Barfs, and shared our knowledge, and love!
Big Major Barf: Barfs are individuals! We have a unique serial number on our foot. We're self-sufficient and proud of it! You deserve to starve!
Purple Person: But...
Big Major Barf: Hindsight is easy, but as my mom, Harlet Barf, told me, a wise Barf arms himself to the teeth, because of tomorrow, not yesterday.
Gun cocks are heard, followed by gunshots.
Purple Person: (screams) You shot me! You're a major dick, Big Major Barf!
Lady Barf: We learned today that purple is a lot like red. Never judge a book by its cover, instead, shoot on sight!
Announcer: The Barfs, Saturday mornings at 9.
Barfs: The Barfs! Yay!
