THE FOLLOWING REVIEW MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS. IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THE SHOW FOR YOURSELF, OR DO NOT WANT TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS IN THE SHOW, OR THE WAY CHARACTERS ARE, PLEASE DO NOT READ THIS REVIEW.
This is without doubt one of THE best cartoons ever made. It's original, creative, and never fails to make you think, educate you, or make you laugh.
The characters: Each character has a distinct personality, whether they are clumsy, intelligent, kind, boastful or mean etc. Not a single character is repetitive including Timmy and Tommy, who are both annoying twins yet are both different in ways of personality. The characters are realistic by personality, shape and size, and by races, even if they are animals.
The plot: The show revolves around a kid named Arthur who has a Mum, Dad, and two younger sisters D.W and Kate. The episodes involving the family, and friends are all realistic, showing what we would easily come across in real life, and how it relates to us in the real world. It's an Animal-Human take on real life.
How it's drawn: Arthur is a cartoon. And a very well done one at that. The show uses proper animation. All characters and objects in the world of Arthur are realistically drawn, showing proper shading, and details within the objects. Everything is drawn properly with great smooth animation.
Originality: The show is original. You won't find a show with talking animals involving realistic episodes as good as this one. The animation style is unique and well drawn and really pulls you into the world of Arthur.
Seasons: It does seem the show isn't as great as it used to be. The style is noticeably done by computer nowadays, and it lacks the effect it used to have on people. People have also complained about the voice changes which I have noticed too, and they definitely aren't as good as they used to be.
Conclusion: If you haven't seen this show before... you have missed out A LOT. Get this on DVD, catch it on TV whatever, just see this show. It's fun to watch, and you might learn something you thought you'd never know.
I give this incredible cartoon a rating of 9.4/10
