Top Ten Worst Arthur Episodes

D.W. At her absolute worst, in the episode D.W. throws a massive tantrum all because she didn't get invited to a birthday party and even worst she's never punished for anything that she does in this episode.

If D.W. was sad instead of mad, and the girl who didn’t invite her was her friend, and she never saw the movie, I would have felt for her. If Arthur couldn’t sleep because of her CRYING instead of her fits tantrums and whining, that would have also worked. They could have done this: Towards the end the girls who didn’t invite D.W. bully her and cause her to cry and Francine stands up for her. It would’ve been Francine’s best moment in the entire series. But instead of a nice moral we got this. Mr Enter said the intro where she was a destructive giant destroying everything in her path was the nicest thing she did in the entire episode. It could have sent a nice lesson about inviting and who real friends are.

Just as Mr. Enter said it is hard to sympathies with a character who is clearly unlikable

I like this episode although this isn't really like Arthur, but it DOES show when Arthur needs to learn lessons about bullying and that no one is perfect but they still get forgiven for their mistakes.

Okay, many MANY problems with this EPISODE for many MANY reasons. This isn't the only time Arthur was such a prick in these episodes. Episodes like "Arthur's Big Hit" or when he was making fun of Francine in bad hair day. If I were Sue Ellen, I'd slap the hell outta him
1. Arthur took a simple sweater that Sue Ellen was wearing too far.
2. He kept teasing her about it
3. He claims that SHE should apologize to HIM, like SHE can help taking all that nonsense.
4. He lies that Sue Ellen didn't tell him to stop, while when she did, he was all, "Ooh, it was only a danm joke! "
5. He writes this letter saying "Ooh, maybe you're just OVER REACTING! " I feel like slapping that Arthur right on his nerdy stupid face. I cannot believe his parents would raise such a heartless bully! , He's even worse than D.W!
6. He gets mad when everyone gives him the silent treatment while he brought that upon himself.
7. He makes an image of sue ellen with the head of a sheep dog and makes ...more

Arthur was a heartless bully in So Funny I Forgot To Laugh and this isn't the only time he's done this, especially in episodes like Arthur's Big Hit where he hits D.W and he knows that Sue Ellen told him to stop. Yet he claims that SHE should apologize to HIM while HE WAS the one who took the whole sheepdog thing way too far, and lies right to Buster's face that she didn't tell him to stop. Than he writes this apology letter saying that when he got bullied for wearing glasses, he didn't feel that he needed to tell Mr. Ratburn just to get Francine into trouble(by the way she was calling Arthur a four eyes) and then he ends it off by saying that she's overreacting. Then he starts giving attitude because nobody wants to speak to him anymore.

Arthur is a big fat jerk in this episode. He thinks Sue Ellen should apologize to HIM. His letter was just AWFUL. He was never sorry. He called it a joke, but calling (and eventually treating) someone as a dog is BULLYING. Oh, and WHERE ARE MR AND Mr. READ? In episodes like "Arthur's Big Hit" and "D.W.'s Very Bad Mood" they were jerks to Arthur for no reason. Now, they HAD a reason to be a jerk to him! Same with Mr. Ratburn. He just disappeared after the conversation. Writers of this episode, here's what you could have done: Make Arthur serve detention or make him rewrite his apology note. If Binky or Muffy were the bully, I would understand this. They both have been jerks before. Arthur is out of Character. I mean, that Sheep Dog Appreciation Day flyer was just CRUEL. Sue Ellen switching classes made Arthur want to switch classes. It took Arthur from being everyone's favorite aardvark, to a mean jerk. And in my opinion, The writers are trying to portray Francine ...more

I'm honestly sick and tired of people saying that Arthur had ever right to hit D.W, like what part of she's a little kid for God's sake do you not seem to get? I mean, we can all relate to little kids constantly touching our stuff without permission but little kids, especially toddlers haven't fully developed how to properly act in life yet or how to respect people and their property. It's NORMAL. I mean, as little kids, we all had to learn this. And besides, D.W apologized at the end which means she learned her lesson. You guys can start saying "we can say what we waaaant!" whenever the hell you want, but you know I'm stating straight facts.

This is one the worst episodes of the show. Just as bad as some of Family Guy's episodes like Not all Dogs go to Heaven and Quagmire's Dad. The way they portray the characters was stupid. For me, the worst thing about this episode is that they expect us to feel bad for D.W., where in actuality, it's satisfying to see her get punch since she's clearly the most unlikable character in the whole show, all while the episode is making Arthur out like he's the bad guy for his action, where in actuality, Arthur's the only relatable character in the entire episode. Just, how can you blame him for having moment like this when he was given everything reason? I said enough here, everything wrong with this episode in right in the blue. It's annoying, mean-spirited, and a complete failure of what they were trying to do, as well as the show itself.

Um, no. This episode is very hated and at it's worst, because D.W's in the wrong here. I mean, sure Arthur punching his little sister was a terrible thing but he told D.W a million times to stop touching his plane and he punched his sister for it and got into trouble. If the episode was a lot more as brutal as "So Funny I Forgot To Laugh", then nobody would speak to him and they'd all start avoiding him like what Binky was doing. I mean, yeah. You're not suppose to hit your younger siblings. But cut Arthur some slack for god's sake. He worked so hard on it and it hasn't even lasted a day. So why blame Arthur? I mean, come on. Just because D.W's the youngest, doesn't mean she always has to get away with everything. And also, I made a mistake. No. Kate's the youngest.

Definitely the worst in my opinion after what happened when I hit my cousin many years ago along with that infamous Dragon Tales episode "No Hitter"!

This episode made me want to destroy that Crazy Bus CD along with that boombox with a steel baseball bat and throw the pieces in a volcano! I would also let loose a lion to maul that little Disaster Warning and eat her! I also blame Arthur's parents for not doing anything to make DW stop playing that horrible song or even punish her for constantly playing it in the house without stopping. If I were the parent I would confiscate that CD and boombox and not let DW play her dumb song for months. If she throws a fit I don't care because I'll let a rattlesnake bite her to shut her up.

Must the worst episode ever dw ruins the trip for Arthur and then gets famous too. Dw is most hated charter ever I hope to never watch this episode again

Imagine If D.W. Played the waffles song from Teen Titans Go

Terrible follow up to D.W.'s Snow Mystery,her snowball mysteriously reappears and despite having it back she still believes Arthur took it and worries he'll steal it again as she goes to extreme measures in trying to keep it safe.

Absolute disaster of an episode consisting of D.W getting her way through temper tantrums, Dad giving in and never being punished for any of her awful behavior.

Dw is not fair
Me is fair you brat
Dw is not
Me it is you ruined Arthur last weeken
Me hey Arthur mom & dad hget your lazy but be a Parent
Arthur dad what do you want us to do
Me tell Dw no & stop this right now or no weekend time for you ever

I think DW can be funny and entertaining but her behavior in this and some other episodes would make Caillou blush.

Dw just got on my nerves. The trip would have been perfect until she came along. Ugh.

I didn't even watch the episode, but I know that DW will be an annoying brat. I can't believe I used to like her. I don't hate her, but I do dislike her.

Even though I hate Kate, I have to give this one to her. All she wanted to do was play with DW but DW just acted like a jerk and scared her. She deserved to be punished. I don't hate her, but I do dislike her.

This episode shows how D.W. gets punished and lies about being treated like a slave by her brother and parents after she blames her baby sister! She thinks those events did happen to her, when in real life...THEY DIDN'T!

D.W.: I have the meanest parents in the whole world. All they do is punish me and make me work like a slave girl. First I had to stay up all night and take care of Arthur when he had a cold, and finally when my cousin Lucy was getting married, I had to stay home to cook, and clean while everyone else when to the wedding. It's so sad being me.

Me: Seriously? ARE YOU EVEN HEARING YOURSELF OR ARE YOU JUST PLAIN STUPID!?!?!?! Those events never even happened to you and your just making that stuff up you idiot!

D.W.: I'm not making anything up! Those things did happen to me. Who's side are you on?

Me: I'm on the side that involves me taking a lie detector test on you for making those idiotic excuses runt!

D.W.: How do you think I'm making ...more

Boring, and has no purpose

Why is this on the list on just saw it's not that bad you is this episode so hated. the fact it was so hated that it was replace with the secret guardians before the secret origin of supernova why! it's not that bad I like the episode more then plat it again, D.W.

This was just on T.V. a couple days ago and I hated it. George and Buster strum the guitar and then go on an acid trip involving environmentalism and aliens. Weird.

D.W stating the wrong facts it's hard to root for a character who is completely unlikable

Buster really wants a new toy that everyone except him and Arthur have his mom tells him hell get one for his birthday but Buster really doesn't want to wait so while at the drug store where Arthur and his family are shopping at stuffs the toy in Arthur's backpack without him knowing, eventually the guilt gets to him and shows up at Arthur's house and shows him the stolen toy Arthur is understandingly upset with Buster for almost getting him in trouble but rather than tell his parents what Buster did they decide to cover it up and return the toy without anyone knowing, they show up the next day with a note but find out all the toys are gone and if they leave it there the store owner will know they took it so one of them distracts the owner while the other hides the toy they almost get off scot free but the toy mysteriously starts walking the owner see's the toy and the note and the boys eventually fess up and are busted, though the episode teaches that stealing is wrong just the way ...more

Did they have to dedicate an entire episode to vomit!? I love the series but they didn't have to do this episode. I only watched a little bit of this episode and I will never go back and finish it. Shows like Clifford The Big Red Dog, Curious George and The Berenstein Bears never did an episode like this so why should Arthur. If you like me are emetophobic (a fear of vomiting) or hematophobic (a fear of blood) don't watch this episode. There are so many better ones like Arthur's Family Vacation, Grandpa Dave's Old Country Farm, The Chips Are Down, The Cave, Best Of The Nest, Elwood City Turns 100, Postcards From Buster, Arthur Weighs In, Happy Anniversary, etc. I wish this episode didn't exist.

This is an episode I refuse to watch! The topic of this episode makes people who are like me emetaphobic anxious and very uncomfortable. I hate just thinking about it!

Why did they keep making George get a bloody nose when a runny nose would've done the trick just as well. This is a kid's show after all.

D.W sues the Tibbles for stealing a cupcake. "Oh my god, who the hell cares! " Peter Griffin.

Brain gets angry at Muffy thinking she's going to win the science fair after bribing the judges, in an out of character moment he and Francine send a fake love letter to Muffy as revenge which makes no sense and things spiral out of control when Muffy sends a love letter to the person she thinks send the letter and both Brain and Francine realize the might get muffy in trouble with the person who she sent the letter in the end Muffy doesn't even win the science fair so they basically did all this for nothing.

Boring and overplayed.

Terrible, nonsensical, just a bad episode
