Any comments on the launch of Arthur Season 17 with the "Show Off/Dog's Best Friend" episode? The "Show Off" episode featured a guest voice of actor Alan Cumming supplying the voice of a poodle dog.

...that doesn't relate to Marc Brown's Arthur but relates to an Arthur brain who wears glasses just like Marc Brown's Arthur does!:

Books / Human Tibble Twins
« on: October 21, 2012, 11:54:44 pm »
Have you ever noticed in these Arthur books where the Tibble Twins appear:
Arthur Babysits
D.W.'s Library Card
Arthur: It's Only Rock 'n Roll
Arthur and the 1,001 Dads (Arthur Chapter Book)
Arthur's Birthday Surprise
D.W.'s Guide to Preschool
D.W.'s Guide to Perfect Manners
Arthur Turns Green
...the Tibble Twins are human looking rather than animal/bear looking?

Beginning in early 2009 through about before Summer 2009, I know the countries of Canada and United Kingdom/England began to air the remainder of Season 12 Arthur episodes and most of the Season 13 Arthur episodes before PBS in the USA ever got to air them. This happened again for a remainder of Season 14 and the whole Season 15 episodes for Arthur in the United Kingdom/England and Australia in Fall 2010 even when the first 5 Season 14 Arthur episodes were airing on PBS in the USA and on Canadian TV networks TVO/TVO Kids (Toronto, Ontario area) and Knowledge Network/Knowledge Kids (Vancouver, British Columbia area).

Odd to see despite Arthur produced by a Canadian animation studio (Cinar/Cookie Jar, and now 9 Story) airing in foreign countries before the US did, but without the "A Word From Us Kids" or "Postcards From You" semgents which WGBH in the USA handles for PBS Kids airings of Arthur.

Would the remainder of the Season 16 9 Story produced Arthur episodes air in Canada, UK/England, and/or Australia between November 2012 and early 2013 before PBS Kids in the USA airs these in Spring 2013?

Cast and Crew / Julie Lemieux (Voice of Bud Compson)
« on: October 20, 2012, 10:42:55 pm »
Anyone familiar with Canadian voice actress Julie Lemieux, who voices Elwood City newcomer Bud Compson (Ladonna's little brother)?

Julie Lemieux has done voices in the cartoon series Busytown Mysteries, Spider Riders, Pelswick, Jojo's Circus, and a 1990's animated version of Flash Gordon.

Did you know Fanart Central and Deviantart are 2 sites that you can post and look at Arthur Fanart by artists/fans?

Here's one of my Arthur drawing favorites on Fanart Central done by Salamander in 2005 - It's of Sue Ellen and Fern from Marc Brown's Arthur as prehistoric cavegirls:

Characters / Lydia Fox
« on: October 20, 2012, 12:16:16 am »
Anyone remember Lydia Fox in the Season 14 Arthur episode "The Wheel Deal"? She was from the winning "All Kids Can Create a Character" contest.

I hope she appears again in the future.
