Hey Arnold! is an American animated television series that aired from October 7, 1996 until June 8, 2004 on Nickelodeon.

Premise

The show stars 4th-grader Arnold, who lives with his grandparents Phil and Gertrude, proprietors of the Sunset Arms boarding house. In each episode, Arnold often helps a schoolmate solve a personal problem, or encounters a predicament of his own.

Setting

Hey Arnold! takes place in the fictional American city of Hillwood. Craig Bartlett stated in an interview that the city on the show is based on large northern cities, including Seattle (his hometown), Portland, Oregon (where he went to art school) and New York City (from which many landmarks were borrowed).[1] Bartlett, having grown up in Seattle, bases many of the show's events on his own experience growing up in the city. The Pig War mentioned in the episode with the same title took place on the boundary between what is now the State of Washington and British Columbia.

The overpass above Arnold's house is possibly the Alaskan Way Viaduct in Seattle. In many first-season episodes and later, the Brooklyn Bridge is seen as a prominent landmark in the city. Other episodes show an overview of Arnold's neighborhood, with the New York City skyline in the horizon, complete with the Empire State Building, Central Park and World Trade Center, suggesting that Hillwood could be a neighborhood in Brooklyn or Queens. Also according to a list of public elementary schools in New York City PS 118 is a school in St. Albans, which is a residential community in the New York City borough of Queens. Also, in the episode "Eugene's Bike", Arnold and Eugene visit Quigley Stadium which is in West Haven, Connecticut and was home to the West Haven Yankees from 1972-1979. West Haven is just north of New York. However, the stadium used in the series bears no resemblance to the actual Quigley Stadium.

Production

Hey Arnold! was created by Craig Bartlett and is based on his comics starring Arnold, which he created in 1986. Using the Will Vinton facilities Walkabout Program (a student production lab), Craig Bartlett created his Arnold Escapes From Church short film which later generated two more clay-animated short films, The Arnold Waltz (1990) and Arnold Rides a Chair (1991) which eventually aired on an early-1990s episode of Sesame Street.[citation needed] The familiar, cel-animated Arnold came about in the mid-1990s when Nickelodeon picked up the new series. Apart from the animation style, Nick's Arnold now wears a sweater, with his plaid shirt untucked (resembling a kilt). Only Arnold's cap remains from his original clay-animation wardrobe. "Arnold" comic strips also appeared in Simpsons Illustrated magazine (Matt Groening, the creator of The Simpsons, is Craig Bartlett's brother-in-law.).

Hey Arnold! debuted as an animated short for the Nickelodeon film Harriet the Spy in 1996.

The show also aired on "Nick on CBS" from 2002 up until September 2004.

24 Hours to Live

[Harold got hit by a baseball]
Helga: Say something!
Harold: Goodnight, Mommy.
Harold: [To Arnold] Who taught you how to play baseball, YOUR LOONY GRANDMA?
Arnold: Hey, Grandpa, I've got a problem.
Grandpa: Shoot it at me, short man.
Arnold: Well, see, there's this big jerk at school, he says he's gonna...
Grandpa: — says he's gonna beat you up, eh?
Arnold: Well, yeah.
Grandpa: Gonna give you 24 hours to dangle, eh?
Arnold: That's right!
Grandpa: Big guy, huh? Slow, but with lots of power. Squash you like a bug, eh?
Arnold: Yeah, yeah! What should I do?
Grandpa: I have no idea.
Arnold: I've got to think of something, Grandpa.
Grandpa: Well, you could skip town. But then you'd have to live the rest of your life in fear, always looking over your shoulder, waiting for... that day. You try reasoning with him? Oh, a moron, eh? Well Arnold, I wish I knew what to tell you. In eighty years I think I've only learned one thing for sure.
Arnold: What's that?
Grandpa: Never eat raspberries. [Holds his stomach] Gotta go! [Grandpa runs to the bathroom]
Helga: Twenty-four hours, fifteen minutes and thirteen seconds until you die!
DJ Nocturnal Ned: It's 7:00 on KILL. This one goes out to Arnold, who's going to die in 2 hours, 6 minutes, and 47 seconds, from Helga who hates you.
Harold Berman: Wow, you really are crazy. Wanna join our club?
Helga: Boys are so stupid.

6th Grade Girls

A Day in the Life of a Classroom

Rhonda: Should we do our own make up, or will the crew do it?
Mr. Simmons: Make your own.
Helga: I'd rather watch paint dry.

Abner Come Home

Arnold: [to Abner at night] Y’know boy, you’re more fun than a hundred dogs put together.
Arnold: [on Abner] Must be getting a drink out of the toilet again.
Grandma: [the morning after Abner goes missing] Anyone for bacon?
Arnold: [describing Abner to the dog catcher] And his tail is so curly when you pull it out it goes 'spoing'!
Gerald: [on the missing pig] Well, did you try going down to the dump and yelling 'sooey'?
Pig Skins R Us crew: [yelling at Abner] Come back here you football.
Grandpa: Brilliant does pretty much describe me. He falls off chair.
Gerald: [on Arnold's brilliant idea] Well, it's not working, and it's making me sick.
Ernie: [overwhelmed at the end] It does kinda bring a tear to your eye.
Grandpa: That's just the onions.

April Fool's Day

Helga: Thanks, Arnold. I really appreciate all that you've done for me. You know, except the part where you made me go blind.
[Arnold is carrying "blind" Helga across the street and a taxi cab is speeding towards them]
Helga: Arnold, look out for that cab!
[Arnold jumps and they land on the sidewalk]
Helga: Arnold, are we alive?
Arnold: We're fine.
Helga: Whew. Good thing I saw — uh, I mean — smelled that cab coming.
Arnold: You smelled the cab?
Helga: Yeah, you know how it is when you lose one of your senses. The others just kind of kick into overdrive. [sniffs Arnold] Speaking of which, you might want to try a stronger deodorant, football-head.
Grandma: Oh, Happy Groundhog's Day, everybody. Yippee! I saw my shadow — and you know what that means!
Grandpa: We know, Pookie... [With Arnold] Twelve more days of Christmas...
Stinky: Um, fellas. Is it just me, or is the floor moving?
Helga: [thinks when she dances with Arnold] I'm actually dancing cheek-to-cheek with Arnold! He's holding me tight, his hair smells yummy... Oh, who am I kiddin? I love this guy! Maybe I should stop torturing him? Nah, this is way too much fun!
Arnold: [thinking when he dances with Helga] Oh, man, I really hate this!
Helga: [thinking] Oh, man, do I love this or what!
Arnold: Gerald, I think, you're thinking what I'm thinking.
[Gerald whispers something in Arnold's ear]
Arnold: That's even better than what I was thinking!

Arnold as Cupid

Oskar: But Suzie, where am I going to sleep?
[Suzie throws sleeping bag and teddy bear at Oskar]
Oskar: Arnold, I can't believe how handsome you're getting, the way your body's growing to match the unusual shape of your head.
Oskar Kokoshka: [about to bet Arnold's CD player during a poker game] Don't worry, Arnold, there's no way I can lose. [next frame] I can't believe I lost.
Oskar Kokoshka: You keep the money.

Grandpa: [explaining about the kids in alien costumes] The news is all over town. The city is in panic.

Arnold's Hat

Helga: I need that cute, stupid, football head's hat! Oh....Did I just say that out loud?
Miriam: Helga? The door's locked, honey, what are you doing in there?
Helga: Nothing.
Miriam: Oh... okay.
Helga: All I wanted was the hat... and world domination, but for right now, just the hat. Is that too much to ask?
Gerald: Arnold! Hey Arnold! The Jolly Olly man's gone insane! He's passing out free ice-cream! Come on down!
Arnold: No! I'm not coming down without my hat! Ever! For the rest of my life!

[Arnold gets sad]
...me and... I'm not helping, am I?
Arnold
[Explaining what happened to the money]
There was this old lady on the bus, and she had pink hair, and a peg leg... and one eyebrow. And she had a bunch of shopping bags, and she must have taken my bag by mistake.
[Nobody believes him; later]

Big Bob's Crisis

Big Bob

Criminy, I'm a monster.

Buses, Bikes, and Subways

after she discover a pay phone was near Helga and Harold

Helga
[to Harold]
So how much money do you got?
[Harold shows Helga two quarters in his hand]
Enough for one call each. Hello, Mom! It's me, Helga! I'm stuck at the chocolate factory with a moron. The school bus left us here and we don't have any way to get back. Oh, please pick up, Miriam.
[Helga hangs up the phone]
Harold
[dials the pay phone]
Hello? Mommy, it's me, Harold.
Worker at Restaurant
I never heard of you! Don't call me again!
Harold
[hangs up phone]
Dialed the wrong number.
Helga
Just brilliant. You don't even know you're own phone number.
Harold
Hey, look. The subway. We're saved!
Helga
Yeah, great idea, genius. Only one little problem — it costs money to take the subway, and we don't have any.
Harold
Then we'll just jump the gate. No one ever gets caught. Come on! gets stuck on the turn-style entrance
Cop
Hey! You two kids! Come back here!
[Helga pushes Harold through, while they both run into the moving subway, eluding the cop]

[relieved]
Oh! sighs That was close. Oh, I think I'm going to be sick!
Helga
"No one ever gets caught."
Helga
[to Sheena's Uncle Earl]
Hey Mister, wake up!
Sheena's Uncle Earl
What? Who goes there?
Helga
Can you give us a ride into town?
Harold
There some crazy midget clowns that want to kill us!
Sheena's Uncle Earl
Midget clowns eh? Arr!
Helga
[Harold has begun to hug her]
Get off of me, you big whale!
Helga
Everything that happened today was your fault. You can't do anything right! Take the bus for example. Why do you think we missed it, Harold? Oh, let's see, hmm... maybe was it be because you were too busy eating twice your bodyweight in chocolate, num-nums! Oh, how about this one? Let's take the subway, I think it goes to Lincoln. Oh wait, no it doesn't, it goes straight to the bowels of the underworld!! Population homicidal, toothless, midget clowns!! I know, let's steal their bike, they won't mind. Now, you'd think that would be enough to fill any moron's day, but you're not just any moron, are you, Harold? You're the king!! Your day's just getting started. So, because of your amazing curiosity about the world around us, you pulled the plug out of the bottom of our getaway boat!!! You idiot.

Casa Paradiso

Ernie's poem "Knocked Down"

I knocked down my share of buildings and leveled a lot of place
And've seen the miserable looks on the former occupants faces.
If you kick us out, Grandpa, we'll be really angry and sad,
On account that living right here has been the best time most of us has ever had.

Chocolate Boy

Chocolate Boy
I need chocolate, wheres the chocolate, i gotta have chocolate
Arnold
Well, you didn't bet Wolfgang, did you?
Edmund
Whoa! Chocolate Boy doesn't want chocolate? Pinch me, I'm dreaming. Wolfgang pushes Edmund to the ground
Arnold
I can't believe you. I followed you for two weeks straight, all because of a bet.
Chocolate Boy
Yeah Arnold. Two weeks, no chocolate.
Arnold
But, I thought you really wanted to quit.
Chocolate Boy
Sorry Arnold! I gotta go.

Chocolate Turtles

Arnold
Why fight it? It's working.

Coach Wittenberg

Maybe you should try using psychology.
Coach Wittenberg
Hmmm. Psycho-ology, eh?

Cool Party

Curly
[About Rhonda not inviting him to her party]

Eugene
[After hearing Phoebe's explanation of a geek]
Bite the head off a chicken? But none of us has done that... well, except for Curly.
Curly
Yeah! And that was just the one time!
[the kids are thinking of ideas for something to do]
Harold
I say we crash Rhonda's party and eat all her food!
Kids
YEAH!!!
Helga
Well, I say we get a truckload of house manure and leave it on her front porch!
Kids
YEAH!!!
Curly
I say we paint ourselves with tiger stripes, and go free all the animals in the zoo!
[Everyone stares at him]
Helga
[sarcastically]
Fine, Curly. We'll meet you there in an hour.
[Curly runs away cackling]
Helga
Poor twisted little freak.

Because three months, two weeks and four days ago, Eugene borrowed my favorite pencil - the pencil I got last summer at Wankyland - and then, when he finally returned it, it had chew marks all over it! And he sharpened it down to the metal parts! I couldn't sleep! I couldn't eat! All I could think about was Eugene writing with my pencil, Eugene chewing on my eraser and Eugene sharpening, sharpening, SHARPENING!!! And then, when he finally gives it back to me, he says: 'Oh, here Curly.' Like it was NO BIG DEAL!
I couldn't take this lying down. See, I got a plan — the fire alarm. All I had to do was plant the right clues the peanut butter the glasses and to top it all of the pencil. Bingo, he would be randed for life! Ahhhh Ahhhhh Ahhhahhh!
Curly
[Dementedly]
I did It! I pulled the fire alarm! And I'd do it again, too! See? Laughs dementedly as we hear the fire bell ringing and Curly pulling the levers down
Principal Wartz

Simple English

Hey Arnold! was an American animated television show on the Nickelodeon network. It was about a boy with a football-shaped head named Arnold, a bully, or mean girl named Helga who loved him, and their lives in Hillwood, a made up great town in the north like New York City, Chicago, or Seattle. Episodes of Hey Arnold! lasted for about 23 minutes each, and later on, Nickelodeon made a movie from it.
