It was the only cartoon that was on the minute I got back from school. With 4 channels available it was this, Bargain Hunters, some soap opera or the news.
Arthur was not very funny or particularly interesting, but it sure beat out the alternatives.
The theme tune has been stuck in my head for 30 years...
Just a day is such a period piece. The slight fuzziness of a microphone you got from poundland and have lost the little foam bit already but youre still recording with it on the recorder that comes with XP

By the way theres more work coming because another guy just quit so you need to take on his load too until we replace him, but you better go twice as fast to make sure we dont miss anything. Im sure we'll definitely replace him soon we wont just not bother when we find out you can do it all all the time alone. Can you come in Saturday too?
My old geocities website where I list my top 5 Linkin Park songs, has badgerbadgerbadger in a grid background and plays pretty fly for a white guy at full volume.
