I am legitimately impressed with how much work went into this episode, considering it would only be seen by people who ordered a personalized videotape.
What's amazing is how this "episode" was actually produced by PBS and Cinar/Cookie Jar exclusively for Kideo and their line of personalized videos! It was never aired with the rest of the series on TV.
that expressionless face always creeps me out. it shows me his intimidation and how he can take out an entire country with one glare. *Andy* is the face of death. *Andy* has seen life come and go. come and go. thank you *Andy* for showing me how to live the life of a mortal
Funny enough, since Arthur's VA got REALLY deep in Season 5, and this special was released 5 months before Season 5, I had a feeling that his voice would sound like a mixture of his S1-4 voice, and his S5 voice, But no, that's when I found out Season 5 was produced somewhere between March to April😂😂😂
I actually got this as a Christmas present when I was younger! Nice to see I'm not alone. Used to watch mine a lot, funny to think that I thought this was high quality editing then.

In the first age, in the first battle, when the shadows first lengthened, one stood. Burned by the embers of Armageddon, his soul blistered by the fires of Hell and tainted beyond ascension, he chose the path of perpetual torment. In his ravenous hatred he found no peace; and with boiling blood he scoured the Umbral Plains seeking vengeance against the dark lords who had wronged him. He wore the crown of the Night Sentinels, and those that tasted the bite of his sword named him... [ANDY!]
Once in a lifetime, something so good happens, it might never show again. And that once in a lifetime thing is when Aurturs New Friend starring [ANDY!] was first aired. And now, we can see it whenever we want. this is the best Aurtur episode ever
I find the fourth wall break at 4:34 very interesting. There were several fourth wall breaks over the course of the show, but they were never interactive so I find it especially intriguing.
Not a break per-say but my life was ruined the day DW asked Nadine for advice only for her to say, “I’m sorry DW, I only know what you know.” Really just puts into perspective how these characters are all crafted by many hands to add such detail and texture. Perhaps we’re not too different in that sense.
3:06 “Now, the great Zamboni will make this child DISAPPEAR! That’ll be ten dollars please…” thank you Hollowtones for mentioning this video in your My Friend Peppa Pig stream
Guess i cant measure up to *ANDY* Dont worry im not jealous of *ANDY* (laughs nervously) fricken *ANDY* P.S. how did binky fit into the front door if he cant even enter the living room door
He was wearing a costume that depicted himself as the planet Saturn. As such, the part of the costume that is the planet's rings was what got in the way.
Im sorry but the president?????? Excuse me???????????? The real ass president you met? Really? And we're just. Just glossing over that huh that's not important?
@S.V. Saul Vazquez Jr. it was a real episode. It was a promotional thing where you could send a picture of yourself or your kid and they’d send you this tape with your face in it
Fun fact, since this is before Season 5 and Arthur's Perfect Christmas, this is the first Arthur episode of the 2000s. This is also the first episode with the Brain not being voiced by his original actor.
when people take the Multiverse Theory a bit too far.. Andy would be a godlike entity within Arthur due to originating from our world, thus transcending Arthur's realm of fiction - they best hope Andy is a benevolent deity.
Brought you by kideo Kideo, known later as Kideo P.O.P and Kideo Pixfusion, was a video distribution company specializing in personalized home videos and online greeting cards. It started with my party with Barney in 1998 and feature kids in the video. Kideo also released an exclusive personalized Barney book, stickers, and personalized email greeting cards. 2 years later, Arthur's New Friend is released. The short starts with Arthur looking for his photo album in his drawers and under the bed. Then D.W. shows up and tells Arthur it's time to read Hopalong The Frog to her because he had promised. Then D.W. notices the viewers and tells them maybe they read Hopalong the Frog. Arthur then tells her to go bug Mom and Dad, he and gives her his pizza slice. After D.W. leaves, Arthur finds his scrapbook and shows the viewers pictures of him with Pal and the President. He also showed them one picture of his new friend and remembers that day. Arthur's New Friend After the title card, Arthur gets a letter from the mailman saying his new friend is coming. So he decides to give a party. At school, Buster suggests a space-themed party, and Muffy suggests a medieval-themed party. Francine suggests a sports party, Sue Ellen suggests a karate party, Binky suggests a music party, and Mr. Ratburn suggests a book of Brain Teasers. After school, Brain suggests a day with his new friend. At home, Arthur starts to worry about his decisions on what to do. Then his friends show up and get ready for the party. Even David makes a chocolate cake. Then Arthur's new friend shows up, and D.W. takes a picture. We shift back to the opening scene and Arthur thanks his new friend for a good time. Then D.W. comes in and plays the song F-U-N by Mary Moo Cow, which annoys Arthur, and the short ends with the latter chasing the former.
Kiosk Productions presents... an outer space adventure starring you. One day while flying your spaceship, you saw a planet and decided to land. Greetings, I am commander... ANDY Welcome, earthling. What are your hobbies? Narrator: My hobbies include: "Being quiet during trips, clapping with songs and diabetes." Sounds like fun. Let's party. [UPBEAT SYNTH MUSIC PLAYS]
I have a question...could any kid do this if they bought it or was this some kind of contest that only one kid won? Cause if so then it’s hilarious that the kid who won themselves a part in an episode of Arthur was an infant who probably wasn’t even old enough to realize they were in the show XD And also I lost it at “OH NO, it’s ANDY!!!”
No, it was just an old promotion from Kideo and PBS. Anyone could send in $10 and a photo of their child to have them in the video. It wasn't a contest.
The fact that the audio clip of "Andy!" is always the same and *never* suits the cadence of a single one of the sentences it's in is my favorite part.
Same.
and how theres just a different andy audio clip at the end lol

ANDY cannot be comprehended by mortal minds even seeing an aspect of him would drive us insane.

Ikr? They should have recycled the animation and story into a real episode at one point. Maybe have used it for Ladonna's intro episode or something.
@@tomiannucci2661 considering she was introduced after they changed animation studios, they probably would've had to redo this ep from the ground up

This was produced during the fifth season.

They put a lot of effort into a unique episode just to have the names be inserted so lazily.
In the first age, in the first battle, when the shadows first lengthened, one stood. Burned by the embers of Armageddon, his soul blistered by the fires of Hell and tainted beyond ascension, he chose the path of perpetual torment. In his ravenous hatred he found no peace; and with boiling blood he scoured the Umbral Plains seeking vengeance against the dark lords who had wronged him. He wore the crown of the Night Sentinels, and those that tasted the bite of his sword named him... [ANDY!]

It's okay, I'm not jealous of ANDY.
Pfft. Frickin' ANDY.
ANDY, the only human in Arthur.
You spelled his name wrong
*He’s suppost to have all caps in his name*
Unless you want to count the human families in the spin-off postcards from buster.
It almost reminds me of those moments in South Park where Matt and Trey use life like photos of celebrities on some characters
I actually showed this to my friend ANDY. Thank you for posting this, we show it to him constantly 😂😂😂
This is one of the funniest things ever
OH MY GOD ARTHUR'S VOICE SOUNDS SO DEEP- BUT I LIKE IT!😂
That magician charges 10 bucks to make some one dissappear what a bargain
