Seattle was one of the nicest cities in the country until maybe the late 90s. All the degenerate burnouts who grew up listening to Nirvana started moving out there and the city fell off a cliff. Same thing that happened to Frisco in the 60s.
it didn't look like philly at all though
I never got philly vibes from it
it's clearly most inspired by NYC. I don't think much of Seattle looks like that
What if instead of Hey Arnold it was Gay Arnold and he just gets turned out by all the immigrants that live with his slumlord grandparents. They're like "hey get ova here and give me some football head"
Sounds like John K.’s Hey Arnold. I’m in. >tfw he blows two episodes worth of budget and goes 3 months over to make sure every penetration of the rape has a different wacky gag attached to it.
A lot of inner-city schools that sprung up in the 50s and 60s in New York at least are like that.
i always just assumed they lived in the Bronx or Queens
Nah it's pure Brooklyn. Everything about the show, from the set designs to character personalities to ethnic makeup of the school is pure Brooklyn of the 80s and 90s. The only thing 'Seattle' about the show is Arnold wearing a flannel shirt.
Raging alcoholic, ESL, and low IQ.
Hes literally me
u keep tha money
I can't believe Hey Arnold isn't set in New York City. It's actually set in the Pacific Northwest, like Seattle.
Of course I've never been to NYC. But everything about the setting felt like the NYC I had seen in other media.
No fricking way
it was partially inspired by NYC
He can say that, but nothing about the city Arnold live sin feels like Seattle or Portland.
To be fair, I always thought the city looked pretty dumpy in the cartoon, and Seattle is an absolute dump, so it kind of works.
All major cities are a dump. If you live in a city you're a moron.

Yeah, NYC definitely doesn't have a reputation of being infested with rats and streets lined with garbage.

Bartlett has always said that it's an amalgamation of Portland, Chicago, and NYC. As for Oskar, he's a dirty Balkan immigrant.
I assumed he was Polish but is "Kokoshka" a Polish name?
I think he is Polish lore-wise but he has always come across more as a Romanian gypsy.
I think he was called Czechoslovakian in the show.
He was. His accent is based on Gabor Csupo’s Hungarian accent, though.
How is he not a dumb Polack?
It basically is set in NYC, but the creator was from Seattle and insists it isn't New York.
The only Seattle thing about the show is that the boarding house is under what's supposed to be the Alaskan Way Viaduct.
Huh, I always assumed Philly.

It's a mixture of multiple cities. Seattle, New York, and I think Boston or something like that.

That would be pretty gay I think

Pozzed garbage

>all slice of life is the same
Dogshit opinion

>getting angry on an image board
It was the best of times, it was the worst of times

Kitty kitty kitty. Oh-so soft and pretty. Will you pet the kitty? Yes I will pet the kitty. Pet pet pet.

Hey Arnold was great, don't see it talked about enough
Gotta shit on Eastern Europeans for some reason.
YeS!

Lmfao
Childhood is idolizing Arnold
Adulthood is realizing Oskar makes more sense
>The kids were so poor they went to a school that was literally named Public School 118
118 is just the district of the city. plenty of the kids were middle to upper middle class, like rhonda and helga

He just wants a sandwich

No-o-o-o-o-oh
Jew
He was a fricking loser
He's me.
For a kid show, Hey Arnold had some interesting characters
I like that bartlett hated that stupid fan theory and made sure to put pigeon man as alive in the movie.
Hey Arnold had a very kino city. It was not just a generic background
The backgrounds seemed to be made from pastels or colored pencils, the look of the show was sublime.
>The Paramount+ Super Bowl commercial is already going viral
Paramount trying to bring Hey Arnold on their platform?
omfg what did they do to arnold??
you keeb de money <:-)
Oh Oscar! S:^()
i love that little mean israelite harold
