A favorite with viewers and critics alike, Hey Arnold! stars Arnold, a fourth grader who lives with his grandparents Phil and Gertrude, owners of the Sunset Arms boarding house.

Unfortunately, Arnold’s predicaments are often started by Helga, a schoolmate who picks on Arnold and constantly bullies him. However, Helga only pretends to dislike Arnold to hide the fact that she is secretly in love with him!

Created by Craig Bartlett as a comic in 1986, Hey Arnold! debuted as an animated short for the Nickelodeon film Harriet the Spy in 1996. Hey Arnold! went on to air on Nickelodeon from 1996 to 2001. The show also aired on "Nick on CBS" from 2002 until 2004.
I never saw Hey Arnold! until the kids and I were sent the first season for review. What an adorable show! This one is so funny and charming that I can't believe it is still not running on TV! A&W really enjoyed the predicaments of Arnold and had plenty of laugh out loud moments. I found the show to be completely watchable (some children's shows are a bit of an ahem...struggle to sit through) and I liked how Arnold uses problem solving skills....lots of positive messages in this show. Hey Arnold Season One would be a great addition to your DVD collection. This one would be great for a nostalgic fan or for new fans to be! Pick up your copy today on Amazon for just $19.99 (a steal!!)...
