RELIVE EVERY CLASSIC EPISODE AND CITY ADVENTURE 
WITH THE MOST FAMOUS FOOTBALL HEAD AROUND



I made my husband's day this past weekend, when I surprised him with the "Hey Arnold: The Ultimate Collection" DVD set which hit store shelves back on November 13th.  Back when we were dating, he would ask me to record this animated series, which he used to watch with his little brother growing up, so he could watch after work.  I always wondered why he liked this show, especially as a grown adult.  But, after sitting down to watch a few episodes with him, I could see why he and so many other kids and adults would tune in to watch Hey Arnold! when it aired on Nickelodeon.

And, now, my husband has the complete series, thanks to the folks at Nickelodeon, to watch whenever he wants.  :-)  This past weekend my husband and girls were snuggling on the couch watching a few Hey Arnold! episodes, while I was making my Thanksgiving shopping list and wrapping a few holiday gifts I had picked up for family. By the time the second episode ended, both of my girls were hooked, and asked for more Hey Arnold! :-)  And, my husband was not going to say "no" as he was enjoying watching one of his favorite shows of "yesteryear", now with his girls by his side, enjoying it along with him.

This animated series, which originally aired on Nickelodeon ran from 2000-2004 and instantly became a cult classic animated series.  My husband is not alone in loving this television series, as he met a few die hard Hey Arnold! fans who dressed up as Arnold and Harold and walked around the Hartford Comic Con a few months ago.  And, now with the Hey Arnold! The Ultimate Collection release from Nickelodeon, of the complete series as well as bonus content, I can see many Hey Arnold! fans already adding this 18-DVD set to their holiday wish lists.  With over 42 hours of programming (all 100 full-length episodes plus new to DVD bonus features and 2 DVDs featuring the show's original films), fans of this cult classic will be heaven as they watch Harold and friends and their big-city adventures over and over again, reliving your childhood memories and making new ones with your children right by your side. :-)
