List of episodes

The eleventh season of 'Arthur,' which aired on PBS Kids Go! from June 25 to September 7, 2007, stands as a pivotal chapter in the beloved animated series renowned for its engaging storytelling and valuable life lessons tailored for children. With ten episodes composed of a total of 19 segments, As the series evolved, notable changes in voice talent underscored a transition that would resonate with long-time fans. This season marked the last that featured Cameron Ansell as the voice of Arthur before his return as the new character Rafi in season sixteen. The shift in voice talent was further accentuated by Robert Naylor stepping in to take over the role of D.W. from Jason Szwimmer, this is also the same season in which Paul-Stuart Brown will be voicing Brain for the last time. These changes not only highlighted the series' continuous evolution but also signaled a generational shift that reflected the growing and changing nature of its audience. Additionally, the eleventh season remains particularly memorable for the heartfelt farewell to Eleanor Noble, who voiced George; the voice actress would not return until season fourteen. The transition was also marked by the departure of Tyler Brody-Stein and Ryan Tilson from the role of Tibble Twins, signaling an end to an era for the show's voice cast. Furthermore, this season is notable as the last animated by AKOM, a studio that was a staple in the series' production for many years.
