The 5th season of the television series Arthur was originally broadcast on PBS in the United States from September 4, 2000 to November 6, 2000 and contains 10 episodes. The special "Arthur's Perfect Christmas" served as the finale to this season. Steven Crowder replaced Luke Reid as Brain. This was the last season where Michael Yarmush voices Arthur. Starting in season 9, he returns to voice as Slink, one of the Tough Customers. Alex Trebek guest starred as Alex Lebek on the season premiere "Arthur and the Big Riddle".
Peter Moss replaced Carol Greenwood and Micheline Charest as executive producer and Lesley Taylor stepped in for Cassandra Schafhausen when she replaced Ronald A. Weinberg as producer. This was the aftereffect of the Cinar Tax Scandal.[citation needed] Head writers Joe Fallon and Ken Scarborough also left to work on Between the Lions, although Joe Fallon was still credited as executive story editor in this season along with Joseph Purdy.[citation needed] When this season was nominated for a Daytime Emmy, only Joseph Purdy, Peter K.
