"Cast Away" is the first half of the first episode in the seventh season of Arthur. It first aired on October 8, 2002.
Plot
Arthur is looking forward to going on a fishing trip with his dad. But a change in plans forces them to include D.W., much to Arthur’s dismay.
Why It Should Be Cast Away
- It’s another 11-minute Arthur torture episode as he is forced to spend his fishing trip with D.W. against his will.
- D.W. is extremely mean-spirited and annoying in this episode as she throws temper tantrums by crying to get her way.
- Speaking of which, her crying will get on your nerves.
- Arthur’s parents never discipline D.W. and constantly cave into her demands.
- At one point in the episode, D.W. can catch lots of fish by playing her Mary Moo Cow CD, which is nonsensical and makes D.W look like a Mary Sue.
- D.W. never gets punished for her antics, as mentioned in Reason #3.
- It started Season 7 on a sour note.
Redeeming Qualities
- The animation and voice acting are great as usual.
- Arthur is still a tolerable character.
- The ending where Arthur spotted the whale, which is pretty cool.
