One of the best shows Nickelodeon has ever done. The realistic approach and situations that the show discussed was unbelievable. Wish there were more shows like this on the air today. I love how Arnold was always the peacemaker but there were episodes that show his flaws, particularly when there were visitors in town. It's also nice to see a show with subliminal messages that discussed bullies, addiction, and the evils of obsession. Not only that, the show was built around a character that did not live in a traditional household. In a weird way, people were able to relate even more to Arnold. Really wish there was a way to bring this show back and I'd love to be a part of it.
... View MoreI remember when I first saw this cartoon back in 2003. Hey Arnold was one of the first cartoons I saw when I first arrived here from the Philippines.Despite the fact that it's been a decade since the show ended, I still love this cartoon. Hey Arnold is one of the best cartoons of Nickelodeon because it was realistic, the characters were believable, there's character development, and most of all, it doesn't only focus on Arnold. There are episodes that focus on Helga (who is my favorite characters of all time), Harold, Rhonda, and Gerald.Whenever I watch this cartoon, I always have a city feeling.There's always a lesson to be learned after each episodes. This will always be Nickelodeon's classic show and I will never forget this. I recommend this show for everybody. Even adults will enjoy this.

It wasn't about some kid trying to conquer the world, and always failing. It wasn't about a looney, squeaky-voiced character with a very low I.Q. It was about a boy living in a city. He was human. He was realistic. And he made a dang-good cartoon.It was simplistic, charming, witty, and innocent. It captured a sweet, touching feeling with morals and emotions and crap that was awesome. The music was jazzy, the city was like a real city and it was one of my favorite shows growing up. It captured the golden age of Nicktoons, before they turned crappy and unoriginal with shows like SpongeBob. I wish I saw it coming. I wish I had savored this cartoon more than I did. But that's passed, and thats why I'm on here and not watching T.V.
... View MoreThis show was one of the best Nickelodeon shows in the 90's.One of the great things about this show was it never lost it's original plot line; Helga secretly loving Arnold but treating him like she hates him.Another thing is all of the characters. They're all very planned and thought out. You have Arnold, the smart guy almost everyone gets along with. His best friend, Gerald, which they are like two peas in a pod. Arnold's Grandpa and Grandma, funny old people who love each other, Helga, the mean girl with a unibrow, Her best friend Phoebe, a little geeky smart girl, Harold, the fat bully they're all friends with, Stinky, a guy who lives in a wooden house and lives like a country person in the city, Chocolate Boy, a boy obsessed with chocolate, and many others such as Monkey Man, etc.Every episode was great and use the characters in any way possible. We need more shows like this.
