He then revealed a special package he’d received from series creator Craig Bartlett. Inside was an original animation cel from the show, something Toran previously owned as a child before it was destroyed in a flood. “I’m really, really happy to have one again,” he said, showing off the keepsake.
Bartlett also included a handwritten note referencing an upcoming 25-city tour and plans to reunite with Toran in New York. For the actor, the anniversary was an opportunity to thank the fans who’ve kept the series alive. “It’s been a real honor for me to have been Arnold for season one,” he said, adding that meeting viewers at conventions over the years has been particularly rewarding.
Hey Arnold! premiered on Nickelodeon in 1996 and followed Arnold, a fourth grader living with his grandparents in a boarding house in the fictional city of Hillwood. The series became a childhood staple thanks to its memorable characters, including Arnold’s best friend Gerald and his secret admirer, Helga Pataki. It ran for five seasons before ending in 2004.
Toran provided Arnold’s voice during the first season before other actors took over the role.
