Beloved kid show 'Arthur' comes to an end after 25 seasons

Arthur, the long-running PBS Kids series, has come to an end after 25 seasons with a glimpse into the characters' futures. And it turns out the kids are all grown up and are a-o-kay.

The Arthur series finale, titled All Grown Up, made its debute on Sunday across PBS platforms. The last episode came with the reveal of Arthur Read and his friends, well, all grown up by flash forwarding 20 years in the future.

As an adult, the titular bespectacled aardvark sits at a booth in the Sugar Bowl parlor, which is now run by his pal George Lundgren, and he's ready to show the graphic novel he finished writing to his friends.

Buster Baxter is now a school teacher, Francine Frensky runs her own sneaker company, Muffy Crosswire is running for mayor, and Arthur's sister D.W. is a traffic cop. We also see on the parlor's television that Binky Barnes has grown up to be a local weatherman.

In a meta move by the series architects, the events of the PBS show turn out to be Arthur's graphic novel memoir. He reveals his book to his friends and starts reading from the beginning. "Chapter 1, How I got my very first pair of glasses," he begins, which is a nod to the very first episode of Arthur, "Arthur's Eyes; Francine's Bad Hair Day."
