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.
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😂😂😂
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
"I know JUST the thing to make your party a big hit! A book of brain teasers!" "There's a book in the library about how to make fun of the Brain?" "uH nO--"
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!]
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.
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
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.
@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
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.
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.
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?
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.
I remember seeing another one of these for Dora the Explorer. They used the exact same Andy kid as the placeholder for that too. It begs the question of who is the original "Andy" and how many of these shows was he in?

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
@@veryinactiveukmapping yeah thats so weird they change it near the end for some reason

And on this day, Peanut Butter Gamer found his worse enemy
ANDY has seen worlds begin and end and begin again. To know ANDY is to know the universe itself.
It's Andy's world, we're just living in it.
ANDY cannot be comprehended by mortal minds even seeing an aspect of him would drive us insane.
@@wiibrockster It would turn our minds to goop.
Andy has seen thing the mortal brain can not comprehend!
For the record, I’m the Andy. And I’m goddamn proud I’ve become something of a meme from this episode
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.
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
Only makes sense that the best humor would come from such an exclusive episode
Arthur: Oh no, ANDY, an intruder broke into our house!
Andy: 😐
LMAOAOAOAO

"We're gonna kidnap that guy."
"What was his name again?"
"Oh, it was A N D Y."

Andy is rather oddly proportioned for a 2 y/o.
Arthur sounds like his VA went through puberty
This was produced during the fifth season.
@@Father_of_Death It was actually released on PBS Kids in April 2000, and the fifth season premiered in September 2000.

when ANDY walked out of the spaceship I SCREAMED
Andy is actually there to collect souls.
For he does not have one himself
@@Fallen4Ya lol
Andy is an angel of death!

So does PeanutButterGamer.
love the PBG reference
I'd love to see Andy just show up on PBG's channel for an encounter lol
Well guess I'm not as good as *A N D Y* to be Arthur's friend

Better add that to Arthur Savage Moments.

I'm here from PeanutButterGamer's latest video, and hes upset over not having Andy's spotlight
@Dylan Ladner Mandyee!
You have a clown face
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.
They put a lot of effort into a unique episode just to have the names be inserted so lazily.
Praise be to ANDY.
ANDY!

ANDY, the only human in Arthur.
You spelled his name wrong

Unless you want to count the human families in the spin-off postcards from buster.

Guess I can't measure up to ANDY.

Pfft. Frickin' ANDY.
"I didn't have time to make something really fancy, but here's a chocolate layer ca-"

I wonder where ANDY is today he’s probably saving the universe from collapsing
It almost reminds me of those moments in South Park where Matt and Trey use life like photos of celebrities on some characters
That magician charges 10 bucks to make some one dissappear what a bargain
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.
What other fourth wall breaks were there?
@@suhasguddeti2375 Arthur constantly introducing the episodes and talking to the audience at the beginning
@@davidfelter417 ohh yeah he did do that
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.
This is one of the funniest things ever
I actually showed this to my friend ANDY. Thank you for posting this, we show it to him constantly 😂😂😂
I like how they couldnt be fucked to have the voice actors add their own ANDY line in post
ANDY just seems like he would be awkward/not talk or want to do anything at the party.
I can't help but wonder what became of ANDY in the real world. He's probably a...uh... bank accountmentvestor or something now, I bet.
Hes prolly an eboy now
Well, he’s all grown up and commenting on this video now, so if you wanna see him now, check replies for the other video comments

I've been an Arthur fan all of my life and have seen EVERY episode (before 2009), but am I the only one who missed this one?
It was one of those personalized videos you could get, so it was never aired on public TV
they don't call him Baby Face Andy for nothing..
I would never want this tape to get out if my parents had one of these made.
