Season 4, which I reviewed last time, was "so... close to being perfect." Maybe Season 5 will be a nice surprise.

I will rate each episode on a scale from Vomitrocious, Bad, Okay, Good, Great. At the end of my review, I'll count up how many of each rating there are in the season, and give it a rating as a whole, alongside ranking every episode in the season from best to worst.

I have currently reviewed 3/20 episodes in Season 5.

Arthur and the Big Riddle

I like all the riddles and puns in this episode, especially Arthur's Riddle Land dream sequence. But other than that, this episode is kind of dull and not much happens until the last three minutes. And what really annoys me is the ending: Arthur knows the correct answer to a riddle, but decides to lose out of fear that he'll have to change schools and keep going on the show. Or, you know, he could just get it right, win the prize, and lose the next round so he wouldn't have to keep playing? A very disappointing ending, and this episode's call-backs to "Arthur the Loser" don't help. Are the Arthur writing staff really against winning this much? This is an okay episode.

Double Dare

It's dumb how quick everyone is to accept the dare, even after they realize it's dangerous. And that's the best way to describe this episode; dumb. The ending is dumb, the entire plot is dumb, and it's a rather confusing plot. I think this is a bad episode, just because of how everyone goes along with something they know is stupid, and the sheer boredom I feel while watching it.

Kids are from Earth, Parents are from Pluto

This is a boring episode. I don't really care about the conflict nor can I relate. So what if their parents are embarrassing? Everyone else's will be. And it's not like this episode is very funny. I found it kind of stupid. An okay episode that's not quite bad.
