Line 1: Line 1:
Every '''episode of Arthur has an intertitle''' which displays the title, the name(s) of the writer and storyboard editor, and a short animation encompassed within a center circle. With the exception of early episodes, the title is read aloud by either [[Binky]], [[Buster]], [[Francine]], or [[Muffy]]. After Season 1, the typeface for episode titles was modified. The title names were enlarged starting with [[Arthur (season 10|Season 10]]. ABC, TVO and BBC start their episodes in Season 14. In this season, the center circle now features a scene from the corresponding episode and no longer uses the ones that are shared with others. On PBS the episodes start with an Arthur Intertitle.

Every episode of ''[[Arthur (TV series)|Arthur]]'' has a '''title card''' which displays the title, the name(s) of the writer and storyboard artist, and a short animation encompassed within a center circle. Season 1 originally used six different title cards, but later seasons introduced more. With the exception of early versions of [[Season 1]] episodes, the title is spoken aloud by either [[Binky Barnes|Binky]], [[Buster Baxter|Buster]], [[Francine Frensky|Francine]], [[D.W. Read|D.W.]], [[Muffy Crosswire|Muffy]], [[Alan Powers|Brain]], [[George Lundgren|George]], [[Sue Ellen Armstrong|Sue Ellen]], [[Ladonna Compson|Ladonna]], and [[Arthur Read|Arthur]]. The title card occurs 0:40 - 2:15 minutes into the episode. After Season 1, the typeface for episode titles was modified and have double-story lowercase "a"'s instead of single-story ones. The title names were enlarged starting with [[Season 10]]. The title cards were replaced with a scene from the episode, making them all unique, starting with [[Season 16]] in the United States and [[Season 14]] internationally.
 
In the following list, each title card has a list of episodes that use it. The name in parentheses is the character who reads the title aloud.

The center circle is full of water. We see fish swim by, followed by [[Pal]], followed by [[Arthur Read|Arthur]]. He says "Hi!" but sometimes he will say something else like "Yay!". Sonar noises are audible in the background.

This title card is usually used in episodes in which Arthur is the central character (or Pal, in early episodes). The first title card made for the series, it was the first out of the original six title cards to be made for Season 1. It was retired after Season 14 in the United States, and after Season 13 internationally.
 
In "[[Fern's Slumber Party]]", when Fern suggests thatthey should move on to the title card, she says "Maybe that swimming one", also breaking the fourth wall saying it.

==Francine Hits a Gong==
[[File:Francine's Bad Hair Day title card.png|thumb|200px]] In a parody of the Rank Group logo, [[Francine Frensky|Francine]] walks up and hits the center circle with a banging noise similar to a gong. This causes [[Arthur Read|Arthur]] to yelp and begin shaking. The sound of Arthur yelping was changed in Season 11. Initially, Arthur would yelp the instant he comes up, but in later seasons, he would do so after he comes up, and in some occasional cases he is silent.
 
This title card is commonly used for episodes in which Francine is the central character. This was the second title card of the original six made for [[Season 1]]. Out of all the title cards used, this one was shown the most (30 times), along with Arthur Looks for an Umbrella. This title card was used at least once per season for Seasons 1 through 14.


===Notes===
In Israel, this title card is used as the series title card, appearing at the end of the [[Believe in Yourself|intro]].
In ''Fern's Slumber Party, ''[[Fern Walters|Fern]] actually mentions, when her mother says they should go to the title card, that they should see that nice swimming one.

==Buster Makes Sounds==
[[File:Arthur's Teacher Trouble title card.png|thumb|200px]] [[Buster Baxter|Buster]] walks into the circle, and roars (a parody of the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leo_the_Lion_(MGM) MGM Lion logo]), burps, trumpets like an elephant, or another different sort of sound (such as a rooster or a horse sound) for most title cards. After he does, Arthur walks up beside him and laughs. The sound of Arthur laughing was changed in Season 3, but the original sound returned in Season 12, although the original sound was retained in the Season 5 episode, Nerves of Steal.
 
This title card is commonly used for episodes in which Buster, and/or Arthur is/are the central character(s). This was the third title card of the original six made for Season 1.


==Arthur looks for an Umbrella==
[[File:Arthur's Umbrella.png|thumb]]
Arthur does a ''Ta-da!'' pose (and in some episodes says "Yeah!" or "Hey!"), but it starts to rain. Arthur rummages through a rubber duck, spaghetti strainer, and bike horn before finding an umbrella, which he promptly uses.

In some episodes of [[Season 1]], [[Bionic Bunny (character)|Bionic Bunny]] can be heard saying "Faster and more annoying than a mosquito...it's super sister!", "Peskier than the mosquito! It's super sister!", "More powerful than a locomotive...it's super sister! or "Faster than a speeding bullet, it's super sister!", but these quotations were removed after Season 1. On Season 3-4, D.W. occasionally becomes silent when she swoops in, as well as Season 12-13.

Every episode of Arthur has a title card which displays the title, the name(s) of the writer and storyboard artist, and a short animation encompassed within a center circle. Season 1 originally used six different title cards, but later seasons introduced more. With the exception of early versions of Season 1 episodes, the title is spoken aloud by either Binky, Buster, Francine, D.W., Muffy, Brain, George, Sue Ellen, Ladonna, and Arthur. The title card occurs 0:40 - 2:15 minutes into the episode. After Season 1, the typeface for episode titles was modified and have double-story lowercase "a"'s instead of single-story ones. The title names were enlarged starting with Season 10. The title cards were replaced with a scene from the episode, making them all unique, starting with Season 16 in the United States and Season 14 internationally.

In the following list, each title card has a list of episodes that use it. The name in parentheses is the character who reads the title aloud.

Arthur Underwater

Arthur's Eyes title card.png

The center circle is full of water. We see fish swim by, followed by Pal, followed by Arthur. He says "Hi!", but sometimes he will say something else like "Yay!". Sonar sounds are audible in the background.

This title card is usually used in episodes in which Arthur is the central character (or Pal, in early episodes). The first title card made for the series, it was the first out of the original six title cards to be made for Season 1. It was retired after Season 14 in the United States, and after Season 13 internationally.

In "Fern's Slumber Party", when Fern suggests thatthey should move on to the title card, she says "Maybe that swimming one", also breaking the fourth wall saying it.

Episodes used

Francine Hits a Gong

Francine's Bad Hair Day title card.png

In a parody of the Rank Group logo, Francine walks up and hits the center circle with a banging noise similar to a gong. This causes Arthur to yelp and begin shaking. The sound of Arthur yelping was changed in Season 11. Initially, Arthur would yelp the instant he comes up, but in later seasons, he would do so after he comes up, and in some occasional cases he is silent.

This title card is commonly used for episodes in which Francine is the central character. This was the second title card of the original six made for Season 1. Out of all the title cards used, this one was shown the most (30 times), along with Arthur Looks for an Umbrella. This title card was used at least once per season for Seasons 1 through 14.

In Israel, this title card is used as the series title card, appearing at the end of the intro.

Episodes used

Buster Makes Sounds

Arthur's Teacher Trouble title card.png

Buster walks into the circle, and roars (a parody of the MGM Lion logo), burps, trumpets like an elephant, or another different sort of sound (such as a rooster or a horse sound) for most title cards. After he does, Arthur walks up beside him and laughs. The sound of Arthur laughing was changed in Season 3, but the original sound returned in Season 12, although the original sound was retained in the Season 5 episode, Nerves of Steal.

This title card is commonly used for episodes in which Buster, and/or Arthur is/are the central character(s). This was the third title card of the original six made for Season 1.

Episodes used

Arthur Looks for an Umbrella

Arthur's Spelling Trubble title card.png

Arthur does a Ta-da! pose (and in some episodes says "Yeah!" or "Hey!"), but it starts to rain. Arthur rummages through a rubber ducky, a spaghetti strainer, and a bike horn before finding an umbrella, which he promptly uses.

This title card is primarily used for episodes that involve some sort of minor calamity and/or Arthur is the main character. This was the fourth title card of the original six made for Season 1. Out of all the title cards used, this one was shown the most (30 times) along with Francine Hits Gong.

Episodes used

Arthur and Super D.W.

D.W. All Wet title card.png

Arthur is in the title's central circle when D.W. dressed like a super-heroine, swoops in, causing Arthur to spin, and says "Ta-da!". In some episodes of Season 1, Bionic Bunny can be heard saying "Faster and more annoying than a mosquito...it's super sister!", "Peskier than the mosquito! It's super sister!", "More powerful than a locomotive...it's super sister! or "Faster than a speeding bullet, it's super sister!", but these quotations were removed after Season 1. On Season 3-4, D.W. occasionally becomes silent when she swoops in, as well as Season 12-13.

This is another title card commonly used when episodes focus on D.W. and/or Arthur. This title card was the fifth out of the original six to be made for Season 1. It was retired after Season 13.
