Season 6

Season 6 of Arthur premiered in the United States on September 24, 2001 on PBS.

Trivia

 * This season is the first and only one to feature Justin Bradley as the voice of Arthur, taking over from Michael Yarmush whose voice matured in 2000 (season 5), the first season to be animated with digital ink and paint, allowing for more color palettes and clearer picture and the first season where Samuel Holden voices Timmy Tibble instead of Ricky Mabe.
 * When Mark Rendall took over voicing Arthur in the following season, he re-dubbed Bradley's dialogue for syndication, though it is retained in international airings and home releases.
 * This season is the last one to feature Steven Crowder as The Brain, Oliver Grainger as D.W. and Jonathan Koensgen as Tommy Tibble.
 * This season's end credits originally used a remixed end theme music, containing the original theme song mixed with Francine's "You Can Fly If You Try" soul music as well as D.W. chanting "Yeah, Mama!". It was replaced during U.S. second run syndication in the mid-2010s.
 * The VHS and DVD releases would use 3 different color background fundings and would use different PBS Kids logos depending on the background. Originally, after the yellow background version ended, the PBS Kids logo is absent, but beginning with the 2003 DVD of Arthur Gets Spooked, the PBS Kids Dot Transformation logo is added after the yellow background funding. The Dot Transformation logo is also used after the green background funding starting with the 2002 DVD of Arthur the Good Sport. When the background was now purple, beginning with the 2004 DVD of Arthur Parents Are From Pluto, the PBS Kids Dash Transformation logo was added after that version of the funding. The green background version makes a surprise appearance on the 2005 DVD of Arthur's Tooth, but the PBS Kids Dot Transformation logo was replaced by the PBS Kids Fishbowl logo. The yellow background variant makes a surprise appearance on the 2005 DVD of You are Arthur, along with the PBS Kids Dot Transformation logo. However, all TV airings just had the yellow background funding and PBS Kids Dot Transformation logo. Reruns of Season 5 also used the funding.
