List of Title Cards

Every episode of Arthur has a title card which displays the title, the name(s) of the writer and storyboard artist, and a short animation encompassed within a center circle. Season 1 originally used six different title cards, but later seasons introduced more. With the exception of early versions of episodes from Season 1, the title is read aloud by either Binky, Buster, Francine, D.W., Muffy, or Brain The title card occurs 0:40 - 2:15 minutes into the episode. After Season 1, the typeface for episode titles was modified and have double-story lowercase "a"'s instead of single-story ones. The title names were enlarged starting with Season 10. The title cards were replaced with a scene from the episode, making them all unique, starting with Season 16 in the United States and Season 14 internationally.

In the following list, each title card has a list of episodes that use it. The name in parentheses is the character who reads the title aloud.

Arthur Underwater
The center circle is full of water. We see fish swim by, followed by Pal, followed by Arthur. He says "Hi!", but sometimes he will say something else like "Yay!" Sonar noises are audible in the background. This title card is most likely used in episodes in which Arthur is the central character. The first title card made for the series, it was retired after Season 14.

In a parody of the Rank Group logo, Francine walks up and hits the center circle with a banging noise similar to a gong. This causes Arthur to yelp "Agh!" and begin shaking.
