The older seasons aren't available to stream online which sucks because they were classic Arthur growing up. Knowing you have up until tomorrow to watch season 1 on Prime Video devastates me because they should have at least put the first five seasons able to view. Maybe it's a copyright thing with PBS or something?

I realize it happened back in 2019, but I am still disappointed with Ratburn's wedding. When I was a child, Arthur was one of my favorite shows and it's pretty annoying that PBS tried to fix something which wasn't broken in the first place. I should have known that if I liked something, PBS would ruin it!

One of pbs kids worst shows Arthur is a roller coaster of blandness and generic story about life's experiences, the theme song is relatively on tune with the premise, the unlikable generic characters are just 2 - dimensional, the brain is just the generic A+ grade student that the show forces to a hated character depending on the episode, muffy is just the spoiled rich girl archetype and franchine has sister problems knowing full well about the controversial Ratburn episode is sad to think about
