==Actual Aliens==
Despite most of the characters' belief, aliens are indeed real in the [[Arthur Universe|''Arthur'' world]]. They mostly make cameo appearances. There have been several designs for actual aliens, meaning that there is more than one alien race. They are responsible for stealing [[D.W.]]'s [[snowball]] in [[D.W.'s Snow Mystery]], which was the only time Buster's theory was correct. Some of them are also ballet fans, as seen in "[[The Chips Are Down]]."

==From People's Imaginations:==
==Known Alien Believers==
===Buster===
*[[Buster Baxter]]
Buster is the most prominent alien believer in the whole [[Elwood City]] community. He is often quick to blame aliens for little problems happening, mostly in hopes that they will come, so he can meet them. He once thought that, among others, D.W., [[Harry Mills]], and [[Sue Ellen Armstrong|Sue Ellen]] were aliens in disguise (he only officially changed his mind about the latter two). Once, in [[The Butler Did... What?]] he said [[Bailey]] was an alien from an alien invasion team.
*[[Mr. Morris]]
 
*[[Harry Mills]]
===Francine===
===Made up an alien story for Buster===
Because none of the kids know what happens in the Teachers' Break Room, [[Francine]] theorized that the teachers were really aliens set out to make quizzes impossible to pass. (She later said that she only made the alien theory because she knew Buster eventually would have, and she saved him the trouble of having to say it.) She imagines the aliens with huge heads and a single eye, and that they like eating slugs.
*[[Arthur Read]] ("[[D.W. Beats All]]")
===Mr. Morris===
*[[Francine Frensky]] ("[[Buster the Lounge Lizard]]")
When Buster visited him in "[[April 9th]]," [[John Morris|Mr. Morris]] told Buster a story about when the dogs at a local dog show acted strangely and ran to a nearby field that had crop circles. Although most people thought they were from a tractor, Mr. Morris still was convinced it was from aliens. (Note: Aliens and/or their UFO were never seen, only the crop circles that were assumed to be from them.)
===The Tibbles===
When the [[Tibble Twins]] were pretending to be the [[Terrific Turbo-Trooper Toy T-Bot Team]], they thought D.W. and [[Emily]] were space "bad guys", which can be assumed to be aliens.
===Harry Mills===
[[Harry Mills|Harry]] seems to also to believe in aliens, as he said to Buster that [[Mr. Ratburn]] was definitely "one of ''them''". Mr. Ratburn's random comment about lizards was because they first thought [[Bitzi Baxter|Buster's mom]] was dating ''him'', and [[Arthur Read|Arthur]] made up that Buster had a pet lizard that eats rats to discourage him from dating her.

Revision as of 00:44, 5 September 2012

Aliens are beings not from the planet Earth. Although mostly appearing in imagination, they are indeed real and have appeared on several occasions (without the kids noticing). Buster is well-known for believing in them, and several others also do.

Their design has varied more than any other character on the show, mostly depending on: the episode, if they are real or imagined, and who is imagining them.

There is an extremely slight chance that the entire Arthur show is actually acted out (or at least reenacted) by aliens, as seen in the ending of "The Boy Who Cried Comet!."'

Actual Aliens

Despite most of the characters' belief, aliens are indeed real in the Arthur Universe. They mostly make cameo appearances. There have been several designs for real aliens, meaning that there is more than one alien race. They are responsible for stealing D.W.'s snowball in "D.W.'s Snow Mystery," which was the only time Buster's alien theory was correct. Some of them are also ballet fans, as seen in "The Chips Are Down."
