I have noticed that. Looking at the existing episode summaries we have for the first episodes, we have the episode about Ladonna, one for Francine, one for Muffy, 2 for D.W. and Emily together, one about Mr. Ratburn, one about Mei-Lin, and two about the Tibbles.

Now we can only speculate with the names we have for the rest of the season, but I doubt "The Last Tough Customer" will be about Arthur, "Brain's Chess Mess" and "Brain's Biggest Blunder" are obviously about Brain, "Buster's Book Battle" and "On the Buster Scale" are obviously about Buster, and "Fern and the Case of the Stolen Story" and "Sue Ellen Vegges Out" are obviously each about the character in the title.

That leaves us with three episodes that could even possibly be about Arthur: "Baseball Blues," "So Funny I Forgot to Laugh," and "The Best Day Ever"

Right, exactly. We're not speaking of stars, but instead badges. As said, basically MC trophy points of sort.

I do get what you're saying with that. It is something I have noticed, yet like I said, for some reason I don't really mind it. Dunno why.

Yeah, I agree that there has been some crazy cast changes. For some reason, however, I never really mind the Arthur changes. I hear the differences, but they just all sound the same to me.

The latest Brain though, (I think that's the one), isn't the best I don't think. I can't remember who that is, Luke Reid, maybe?

Yeah, I know...I think that in the end they actually end up confusing kids more by trying not to confuse them.

That is actually a really good question. I see what you mean, I can only see them as an admin, yet not a user. I'll have to see if I can figure that out.

Also on the subject of badges, I may be doing some customization and such over the coming days with them, such as adding some new ones that have some Arthur related names.

I did notice that. I'm getting worried that maybe now they're trying to go too old-style by putting back staple characters of the early seasons and taking out ones that are more recent additions, such as Slink to the Tough Customers. (Though Slink has been with them for quite some time).

Kieper is actually an original Tough Customer from the early seasons:

It seems like they don't really show earlier episodes in general any more. Dated animation maybe?  :-\

That may be the case. The animation on those episodes is pretty dated. Once again, I think that they're becoming much more paranoid, so to speak, about what episodes they show.

I wonder if the different character voices could also have some effect on what they show? Sometimes companies get so wrapped up in trying not to confuse kids...

I do have to note that the animation is a bit weird this season, it sort of has a softer, more blurred feel to it. Especially the background scenery.

Has anyone noticed the wonderful inclusion of Kieper and the unnamed brown dog in the Tough Customers clip in the preview video released? I am so excited to see them with the gang again.

D.W. Goes to Washington...now there's one that I haven't seen in like forever.

But yeah, I have noticed that. I think that they are beginning to get more picky about the shows they put on and excluding some for more special occasions.

Yeah...that would be "What Scared Sue Ellen?" And I do agree, that episode has not been on for the longest time.

"Arthur, World's Greatest Gleaper" is another one that I haven't seen for quite some time.
