| ==Trivia==
| |
| *This is the first season to feature [[William Healy]] as the voice of Arthur, taking over from [[Drew Adkins]]. This is also the first season to feature [[Max Friedman Cole]] as the voice of Brain. Although he shared his role with [[Siam Yu]], who has been voicing Brain since [[Season 16]], due to his voice maturing in this season.
| |
| *This is the first season that [[Andrew Dayton]] does the voice of D.W.
| |
| *This is also the first season where [[Christian Distefano]] voices James. Distefano would later become the new voice actor of D.W. for Seasons [[Season 20|20]]-[[Season 21|21]], succeeding Andrew Dayton.
