Happy Anniversary is the 1st episode of Season 10 of Arthur. It is a two-part special that first aired on May 15, 2006.
Summary
It is Mom and Dad's 10th anniversary, and they're going out to dinner. Arthur will have a sleepover at Buster's house and D.W. and Kate will be with Grandma Thora. Everyone's plans are perfect until Grandpa Dave unexpectedly needs a ride, and the car breaks down anyways. In the end, they all had a good time because they were together as a family.
Plot
Mr. Ratburn shows a film about perspective and then assigns the class an essay about it. Arthur and Buster are disappointed to have homework on the weekend of the big Bionic Bunny / Dark Bunny special (in which all will be revealed), but vow to complete it before the start of the special. Arthur, however, struggles with the assignment. Mr. and Mrs. Read are celebrating their tenth anniversary at a fancy restaurant. They're dropping Arthur off for Buster's sleepover and D.W. at Grandma Thora's. But car troubles leave everyone stranded. Things seemingly go from bad to worse when Arthur and D.W. get locked in a storage room in an old diner. They're disappointed, and a bit scared, but find inspiration in an old radio drama called "Kid Carter and his Sidekick Mistral."
Trivia
- This episode officially marks the 10th anniversary of Arthur on PBS TV stations and the 30th anniversary of Marc Brown writing and illustrating the Arthur books.
- During the interstitial, Buster reads ten selected responses from fans telling him why they like Arthur as a whole.
- In the beginning of the episode, the video shown in class may be a parody of the film Powers of Ten.
- Like all episodes of Season 10, this episode included the number '10' hidden in various places. For a list of them, see ARTHUR Season 10 Scavenger Hunt.
