Arthur's First Crush (2005)

TV. Three Arthur episodes centered on the theme of curiosity teach children the value of imagination: Arthur's First Crush (8-year-old Arthur has a crush on the new 16-year-old babysitter because she can crush the cow mummy queen on level 12 of the Dark Bunny IV: Curse of the Moomy video game), 1001 Dads (Arthur and his friends try to match up Buster with a surrogate dad for the Father's Day picnic, unaware that Buster is happy with his father, who though absent has made even cooler plans), and What Is That Thing? (a sewing bobbin helps Arthur and his friends calm a cat, rescue a doll, fly a remote-control plane, babysit D.W., and more). A classroom draws family pictures in Now A Word From Us Kids. Not quite as imaginative a compilation as most discs and introduced by Buster's garish attempt at singing a country song -- in chaps, no less. Blockbuster stocks this disc but Netflix doesn't list it; even so, I got it through the library system. 3.5 stars.
