| Arthur - Intro Theme (Closed Captions) |
 |
Intro to the 1996 animated television series
Arthur, based on the books by Marc Brown.
A co-production between the Public
Broadcasting Service (PBS) and Cinar
Productions, this series follows the everyday
adventures of Arthur Reed, an aardvark who
looks absolutely nothing like an aardvark
(but never mind, eh). The long-running show
(I think they're still making it) received
multiple awards and gets shown in many
countries.
Personally, I find it watch-able but kind of
boring and lacking any real oomph. However it
has won those aforementioned awards,
including some Emmys, a Peabody and the 2003
children's BAFTA for best international
title. Must be doing something right I
suppose.
Ziggy Marley composed and sings the theme
song, later to be called "Believe in
Yourself".
Enjoy, keep the language clean. And no, I
don't have any episodes (which is strange for
me).
The use of this introduction theme
clip/subject is claimed under 'Fair Use' on
the grounds of:
1) the clip/subject is used for - and
accompanied with - comments on the show.
Comments include such things as the producers
of the show (as in the production company/s),
the year it first aired and how long the
series lasted in 'standard length' episodes.
Also noted is the availability of subject on
high quality, officially licensed media (e.g.
DVD).
2a) Inferior quality of video in relation to
the quality of the original source. Being at
a much lower screen resolution at a high
level of compression. In addition to the
substantial generation loss caused as a
result of the methods used, the process also
causes compression artifacts in the form of:
loss of image clarity, noise, pixelization,
et al.
2b) The inferior nature coupled with the
incomplete nature of this recording and the
diminished potential value therein of this
recording in relation to the original work.
3) The trivial nature of the potential value
of subject's introductory theme (hereon
referred to as 'intro'), less the actual show
that would otherwise follow. On the basis
that it is the show - rather than the show's
intro - which is, in essence, the primary
draw of any 'realistic' potential audience
and therefore the main fiscal worth of the
subject (relating to audience/market share
and sales of merchandising, i.e. DVD and
video).
4) Bar the occasional glimpse at an episode's
title car, the clip is of the intro and
nothing else. The length of the clip is
determined by that of subject's intro
original length, no more is taken.
5) The poster and host both receive no
revenue from this clip's existence on this
site.

"D.W.'s Imaginary Friend"
Arthur is annoyed by D.W.'s "Imaginary
Friend", named Nadine, who apparently follows
her everywhere. When Arthur and Buster find
out about a new amusement ride, the

most likely bring Nadine along too.
