one of the longest running kids TV shows
Arthur has finally ended after about 26
years they closed the book on that bad
boy it's a show that I didn't watch a
ton of growing up but one that I always
respected and the finale does a great
job of wrapping everything up in a
Wholesome Way however I personally would
have preferred a more action-oriented
conclusion like Arthur goes on an
absolute ass beating spree stops an
entire terrorist organization by himself
and then in like the climactic final
showdown with the head of the
organization he just gets [ __ ]
unloaded on just peppered with bullets
but he keeps tanking through it as he's
leaking blood out of every new hole
punched in his body tackles him off of a
balcony into like this giant pit of lava
kind of like in Terminator 2 and as
Arthur is dying just sinking deeper and
just being melted he gives a thumbs up
on his way down as it slowly continues
to sink it would have been so poetic and
just such an amazing thing to remember
Arthur for I do think it was a missed
opportunity unity in their finale he
just writes a book which I guess is like
cool but not nearly as memorable as
something that I described there would
have had much more oomph to it I mean
just think about it and you could even
set yourself up for the sequel so he's
given the thumbs up he's on the way down
and then out of nowhere DW gets like a
like a [ __ ] rope and Tarzan's in
grabs the hand and then gives him a
proper burial like a soldier's burial so
she has his his hand the last thing
remaining from Arthur and then we cut in
the next part to the the funeral service
for Arthur he gets like the purple heart
he gets a full military send-off and
then in the final scene just like in the
Justice League little rocks begin to
float over the coffin to let you know
Arthur's still alive just something to
think about I think there was a lot more
opportunity to make something incredible
out of the Arthur finale but I want to
show like the very last two or so
minutes of it just so that way we can
all be on the same page with how Arthur
officially ended in the Canon universe
foreign
[Music]
like some ignorant swine I just don't
know what the [ __ ] this thing is it's
like a Ouija board with a chicken head
on it or something I don't really know
it's some kind of alien Gadget I don't
know this in the Arthur lore like I said
I haven't watched it in a long time and
even when I was a kid I didn't watch all
that much of it but from what I can
gather from this scene it's able to tear
a wormhole into the space-time Continuum
and let us see 20 years into the future
so it's some type of extraterrestrial
crystal ball I suppose
[Music]
Arthur sorry I'm late I had all these
stories to read hey you'll never guess
what Kate wrote about well with you as
her teacher it was probably about aliens
this further confirms my theory that it
was some type of ancient alien artifact
that we just looked at that took us to
this Dimension here in the Multiverse of
Madness but yeah I actually do like this
approach to the finale where you get to
see the characters all grown up and see
where they ended up in life Arthur
looking like he just got out of Whole
Foods after getting some gluten-free
Alternatives and Buster looking like he
just got out of prison and is trying to
sell Arthur on a Ponzi scheme he's
cooked up there's just something about
Buster as an adult that looks a little
off-putting and I think it's the
combination of his weird comb over hair
and trench coat he looks like the kind
of guy that'd be flashing his penis at a
local park or something
it you get an F Arthur read it's about a
baby who can read animals Minds it's
really good maybe she'll be a writer
as many of you know I'm the acclaimed
author behind such Classics as nutty
noodle man and moon ninja back when I
was like six and seven years old so I
understand quality writing when I hear
it and I'm just going to tell you right
now Buster I'll rip the Band-Aid off she
doesn't have what it takes a baby that
can read minds that's like the least
effective superpower ever the baby can't
communicate what the animals are saying
it's Eliza Thornberry if Eliza
Thornberry couldn't speak that's not
helpful so if I was the teacher of this
class she would be getting a pretty low
grade on this paper she'd need to
incorporate more elements to it to make
it more exciting like if that baby was
also a Super Baby Genius that could
speak fluent English and then relay the
thoughts of the animals well okay now we
might have something it just needs a
little more refining Buster is all I'm
trying to say
that it yeah but I don't know if it's
any good
the latest polls have us neck and neck
but I think I can pull ahead George can
I put one of these up
sure my sugar ball is your sugar bowl
and I'll do anything to get that mayor
Hirsch out of office again it is just
cute and wholesome to see the core cast
all grown up later in life so she's
running for mayor George now owns the
Sugar Bowl George also really doesn't
like the current mayor I I don't know
why must he just must not approve their
policies or something I know oh why
doesn't he just retire already
are those the latest style yeah but we
haven't released them yet I'm just
testing them out
be nice now but that cold front is gonna
party slam Elwood City by Tuesday hey
this is a No Parking Zone move it hey DW
it's me bud so it's becoming a bit of a
speed run to see them all grown up they
all just happen to be right around the
area where Arthur was you know working
on his book and I have to say bud has to
be one of the worst drivers of all time
dude parked on a crosswalk he should
just be thrown in The Slammer for that
DW is just gonna write him a ticket this
is a menace who Parks their motorcycle
on a goddamn crosswalk for my publisher
wow I never imagined you'd write a
graphic novel
[Music]
chapter one
how I got my very first pair of glasses
pretty meta and pretty fitting and all
around touching ending to an extremely
popular and influential show for
children I also think it leaves just
enough wiggle room for a sequel when
they announce the Arthur Shippuden
series I think that can really be a
popular anime should they ever choose to
bring him back out of retirement but I
just wanted to share this because this
is the longest running kids show and I
did at least watch it a little bit again
I wasn't like a huge you know Arthur
Enthusiast or anything but it was a show
that I did tune into occasionally as a
kid and just I always had an
appreciation for so pretty big deal that
it ended and actually a pretty
satisfying conclusion that's about it so
yeah
