'''Michael Yarmush''' was the original voice of [[Arthur Read]] for the TV series, voicing the character from [[Season 1]] to [[Season 5]] and ''[[Arthur's Perfect Christmas]]''. Yarmush now provides the voice of [[Tough Customers]] member [[Slink]]. Although, his Arthur voice can still be heard in the theme song of the show. He also provided the voice of the waiter [[Jay (waiter)|Jay]] in the Season 10 premiere "[[Happy Anniversary]]," which celebrated ten years of the series. 22 years later after Michael departed from voicing Arthur in 2000, he return to do his voice for the show's series finale episode "[[All Grown Up]]". But this time, he plays the Adult Arthur.
