Looking forward to "The Last Tough Customer" after seeing that preview (even if I still can't completely get past the new animation), but agreed that Arthur seemed way out of character for teasing Sue Ellen like that in the other clip. He was forced to wear an odd sweater before ("Meek For a Week", I believe).


While looking at the episode list on Wikipedia, I saw someone added these false Season 17 episodes. They're so random and/or generic that I thought I'd post them here before they get removed.  :P

Those are some funny/random plots. It doesn't take a genius to tell they're fake. I'll address what I think of each of them.

Number 1 was really random with the sandstorm and the second plot doesn't seem very exciting.

Number 2: totally unrealistic for the New Rule. The one about Nemo getting sick...it's a plausible episode plot, but it's been done before with Pal getting sick...not to mention that the episode title sounds like Francine had an accident with some faulty wires.

Number 3: these actually sound like pretty plausible plots, but the first one isn't very original/exciting.

Number 4: First one...okay, that's a total giveaway that it's fake (unless it's one of the characters' really weird dreams)! Only a troll would edit the page to say that. The second one sounds like a mashup of "Flaw and Order" and "Arthur's Lost Library Book".

Number 5: Two love/crush-related episodes back-to-back? With virtually identical plots except for the characters? Yeah...totally fake. :)

Just giving my opinions on each one. But I agree with you, Mr. Rocketburn- they are random and generic! They were pretty amusing to read. I'm glad you put them up.  ;D

I haven't completely gotten past the animation. But I've gotten a little used to it. It is possible that 9 Story improved the animation (even though they aired around the same time as the earlier episodes internationally? That's one thing that kinda gets me).

Some of these "Season 17" episodes are highly unlikely to happen. My fan-fic, "The Bridge Series" is more likely to happen versus a majority of these "episodes". I think some of these episodes were written by a kid. Gotta admire whoever it is for their creativity.

So we were right, ARTHUR has, indeed, jumped on the anti-bullying bandwagon. I will admit though, "The Last Tough Customer" does look genuinely interesting, though, but still, "So Funny I Forgot to Laugh" has a TERRIBLY out-of-character Arthur, I'm not sure if I can sit through the whole thing, I cringed sitting through the preview on YouTube.

Other than that... I'm biting my tongue about some of these other plots.
I stretch like a snake, and I shimmy and shake, and I bounce like a ball, and I say something cute when you give me a squeeze!

Kids do go out of line sometimes and it does happen. It's learning process for them.  Yeah they are now on the anti-bullying campaign.

Hello, I just made an account here and I'm sorry if I'm not properly introducing myself, but someone kindly posted Buster's Book Battle on Youtube and I had to share it for anyone who didn't want to wait until May 8th (like me).

It's not a bad episode, in my own opinion, though I still have to get used to the new animation. The idea was creative, though.

I've sort of been thinking about this, but never really brought it up. I think someone somewhere said that Arthur's season 16 voice kind of sounds like George. And come to think of it, I think Arthur's new voice actor sounds like a mix between Brain and George, more so like Brain. Though I think there ARE times where he sounds a bit more like George (even to the point of sounding a tiny bit like Wally?).

Hubert was the one who said he sounded a little like Brain this season, though I haven't heard anyone say he sounds like George.

I agree his voice and inflections do make him sounds a little like Brain, not so sure about George.

It must not have been on this forum...somewhere else, I think.

And the similarities to George...they're there if you listen really closely and compare Arthur's S16 voice to George's voice from the older seasons. But now that I think of it, he does sound more like Brain, especially when Brain's voice was sort of like his voice in "Water and the Brain" (Brain's had a lot of voice actors, so I sort of just know his various voices by how they sound in my head).

Just a quick headsup for everyone here. http://www.abc.net.au/tv/guide/abc2/201304/programs/ZX8973A051D2013-04-23T153248.htm

These episodes are part going to be Season 17. How I know that? These are not scheduled to air two weeks from now. Plus there are only ten episodes airing in two weeks.

Hooray! And some of the episode's summaries actually look interesting and somewhat original.

But why is there an episode simply named "Ladonna Compson"?
"Where's my Prince Charming?!"

Yeah, that is weird...I CANNOT imagine an episode being named that :P

Also, why do they say "Series 16, episode 57" and stuff like that?

Something that Snowth said earlier...Arthur looked a bit off-model in season 16...unfortunately I can't post pics (upload folder is full) or put up URL links (same reason), strangely enough...so I was wondering...take a look at Arthur in, say, seasons 1-5, and take a look at him now. Do YOU guys think he looks off-model? If so, how?

Personally, I think I have noticed slight variations or distortions in his facial features and overall body structure.
