Hello there. I am a major fan of Arthur. I have seen every episode at least once and the vast majority several times. I was born just a couple years before the series premiere, so I was practically raised on this show. The original seasons are the best, of course. Seasons 5 and 7 are my favorites. I also really enjoy Season 15.
Favorite Characters
Of course, I like Arthur as the main character, and D.W. and Buster provide some comedy here and there, but there are others I think have had great character development and some interesting stories:
- Muffy: Strong character from the beginning. Spoiled rotten yet mature. Her relationship with other characters are often very strong as well (i.e. Bailey, Francine, etc.) Voice actress consistency is also great.
- George: I love seeing his progression from being the shy kid to getting out of his shell a bit. I think it is perfect that the writers let him befriend Carl.
- James: The random background character who is slowly gaining some air time in the show. I love the stories the writers put him in. Night of the Tibble is actually one of my favorite episodes of the later seasons.
- Bailey: Another somewhat minor character slowing gaining air time and character. His relationship with Muffy is great, and I love the little humorous bits with him in the show.
- Bitzi: An average over-protective mother, yes. But she's also a strong woman who has it together being a single mother and holding a pretty decent job at the local paper. Very sweet too.
- Mrs. MacGrady: It's great to see an older person being a positive influence on the Lakewood kids. Wish she would be featured more often.
- Maria: I'm a fan of developing background characters. I CANNOT wait until Season 19's episode about her!
Favorite Episodes
Here is my attempt at listing my top three episodes per season.
- Season 1: Arthur Accused! - The Half-Baked Sale - D.W. Gets Lost
- It's very hard to pick just 3 out of 60.
- Season 2: Draw! - Arthur's Knee - Love Notes for Muffy
- Season 3: Arthur's Almost Live Not Real Music Festival - Buster's Growing Grudge - Revenge of the Chip
- Season 4: The Blizzard - The Contest - Arthur's Big Hit
- This is a pretty great season; several episodes just missed the cut for top 3.
- Season 5*: Nerves of Steal - Arthur's Family Feud - Sleep No More
- This is my one of my favorite seasons along with Season 7; essentially any episode could have been top 3.
- Season 6: Sue Ellen Gets Her Goose Cooked - Best of the Nest - The Secret Life of Dogs and Babies
- Season 7*: Elwood City Turns 100! - April 9th - Francine's Split Decision
- This is my one of my favorite seasons along with Season 5; essentially any episode could have been top 3.
- Season 8: Desk Wars - Arthur's Snow Biz - Kiss and Tell
- Around this season is when I feel Arthur starts to head downhill; still some good episodes though.
- Season 9: The Law of the Jungle Gym - Emily Swallows a Horse - Three's a Crowd
- Season 10: Flaw and Order - Do You Speak George? - The Squirrels
- Season 11: Brain's Shocking Secret - Phony Fern
- Bad season IMO; couldn't pick any other episode worthy of being in top 3 :P
- Season 12: The Frensky Family Fiasco - Matchmaker, Match Breaker - Is That Kosher?
- Season 13: When Carl Met George - The Pride of Lakewood - The Great MacGrady
- Season 14: All the Rage - D.W. Unties the Knot - The Long Road Home
- Season 15*: Fifteen - Buster the Lounge Lizard - Buster's Carpool Catastrophe
- Interesting season: episodes were hit or miss/excellent or poor.
- Honorable mention- The Butler Did... What?
- Season 16: Get Smart - Night of the Tibble - The Last Tough Customer
- Season 17: Framed! - The Director's Cut - Molina's Mulligan
