Watching cartoons

I would like to take this opportunity to write about my very favorite cartoon: Hey Arnold!

Maybe it is a very simple thing, but I decided to write about it because yesterday I realized that during this year I haven’t watched TV at all. Even I haven’t watched news, because I spend all my time studying, so I feel kind of nostalgic of spend some time watching TV, specially watching Hey Arnold! No matter if this will be a waste of time; it could be so fun and relaxing…

I like this cartoon since I was a child of 9 years old, the same age that Arnold and his friends, and that makes me felt that sometimes the adventures of the characters was very similar to mine. I also remember that I used to watch it every day at nickelodeon channel, no matter if there was a repeated episode, because I think that everyone is an unforgettable episode that makes you feel moved, especially because it contents are so human. For those who used to watch it, how can you forget about the episode of the “portico boy”? Or what about that one when Arnold finds his father’s diary of life? I still crying when this one, I think it’s so sad…

Also I have to talk about the characters. Everyone has a special characteristic, for example, Helga, that shows herself like a rude girl, but deeply she is so sweet and romantic, always in love with Arnold, the dreamer boy who protagonists the cartoon.


I really have to say that this cartoon is my favorite one, because it shows how the life is when you’re 9: full of adventures and free time to watch TV or being playing around with your friends.

  1. Hey Arnold was my favorite animated cartoon as a kid, and still see from time to time. I think the stories, the personality of Arnold and the secret love of Helga make to these cartoons the best I've ever seen.
    Besides Arnold and Helga, my favorites characters were the grandfather and grandmother of Arnold, they were unique.
