Long before Arthur became a children’s television treasure, he was an aardvark with nose insecurities in a popular book series.
But in 1996, author and illustrator Marc Brown turned "Arthur" into what eventually became the longest-running animated children's TV series. With more than 200 episodes spanning 25 years on PBS, "Arthur" touched the lives of several generations.

Arthur was my favorite show when I was a kid. I’m 26 and once a while I watch it to remember my old childhood memories
I’m really going to miss Arthur :’-(
As a kid, I’d just sit alone in a room waiting for Arthur to play……………
Arthur will always live on in our hearts 💕💞♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
I hope it has an honorable send off. I enjoyed it years ago.
I will say that it was about time to make room for fresher plots in New shows.
Arthur was my favorite childhood TV show. I’ve watched it since I was a kid and now I’m a young adult. Thank you Arthur after 25 brilliant seasons. Farewell old friend. 😥😥
