The houses in Arthur, like a lot of the show’s scenery, have a variety and realistic feel I don’t see in many other shows. They’re not all generic houses/apartments, or mansions that are a parody of wealth. Instead they actually feel like places people might live.

They also reinforce one of the show’s central theses: that there are lots of different kinds of normal and that whatever kind of upbringing a child may have, they’re not the only one.

I feel like I have to erase my past. I need to scrub it clean. I can’t handle the pain it causes me anymore. And sure, maybe I feel like I’m losing a huge part of myself..but I could never fully heal and I’m overwhelmed by it all the time.
