This has been an interesting issue that comes up quite often within the Arthur fanbase, so we might as well discuss here as well, and get everyone's opinion on it:
So, how do you feel about those talking Pal and Kate episodes? Personally, I can't stand them myself; I've given them a whirl, but I don't know, I just can't sit through one the whole way through. I mean, it's was an interesting concept to play with, we could pretty much tell that even before then, Pal and Kate liked to play with each other, I'm guessing someone decided to see what it was like from their perspective. Still, I'm just not crazy about the episodes. "The Great Sock Mystery" is just about the only one I can tolerate on some level, if only because I like the Stock Market satire, it reminds you that even older kids and adults can watch this show and be entertained by it.
