Premise

The show stars 4th-grader Arnold, who lives with his grandparents Phil and Gertrude, proprietors of the Sunset Arms boarding house. In each episode, Arnold will often help a schoolmate solve a personal problem, or he will encounter a predicament of his own.

Setting

Craig Bartlett stated in an interview that the city the show is based in is actually Seattle, mixed in with some elements of New York City. Bartlett, having grown up in Seattle, bases many of the show\'s events on his own experience growing up in the city. In many first-season episodes and later, the Brooklyn Bridge was seen as a massive prominent landmark in the city. Other episodes showed the overview of Arnold\'s Neighborhood, with the New York City skyline in the horizon, complete with the Empire State Building and World Trade Center, suggesting the neighborhood was Brooklyn, or Queens.

Production

Hey Arnold! was created by Craig Bartlett and based on his comics starring Arnold, whom he created in 1986. The familiar, cel-animated Arnold came about in the mid-1990s when Nickelodeon picked up the new series. Apart from the animation style, Nick\'s Arnold now wears a sweater, with his plaid shirt untucked (resembling a kilt). Only Arnold\'s cap remained from his original clay-animation wardrobe.

Hey Arnold! debuted as an animated short for the Nickelodeon film Harriet The Spy in 1996.

The show also aired on "Nick on CBS" in 2002 until September 2004. As of November 2007, the show airs weekdays at 11 AM ET on Nicktoons Network.
