I can understand Craig’s feelings about this, and it is good it doesn’t bother him anymore. Still, it’s so sad to see it’s now just an impossible dream.

As cool as it would be for there to be a sixth season, The Pataki’s (with some minor adjustments), which are both great ideas…

I think that “The Jungle Movie” is what should be made above all else. THAT, is what could bring the series to a fairly satisfying close.

It may seem like an impossible dream, but hey, Rugrats came back on the air after Nick got sacks of mail, didn’t it? So, maybe, just maybe, if we keep trying and not give up hope, maybe we can at least save The Jungle Movie.

I hope everything works out. And Hey Arnold! will always have fans, because even today, the series still touches our hearts. I know this because I was once a young kid who tuned into some episodes of the show and thought it was good, and then lo and behold, probably a decade later, it’s back in my eyes and I love it.

Thank you for posting this. I hope things will work out.

[...] you’ll know that I’m a big fan of animation (see interviews with Hey Arnold! creator Craig Bartlett and composer Jim Lang). I’m also a big fan of history, so the history-making animated movie [...]

Great interview Monique! I can tell a lot of thought was put into the questions, and it’s always interesting to get an update on Craig’s thoughts about his career, the show, and the fandom as time progresses.

It hurts that Craig has no faith that TJM will ever be made.
I understand that Hey Arnold is done, and its time has past, but it had no ending. I don’t expect more HA episodes, or the Patakis, but just this movie to end the series the way it was supposed to end.

I can’t even enjoy the HA episodes “The Journal” and “Parents Day,” because they are a hurtful reminders that we may never know what happened to his parents.

Craig has lost that Arnold-like optimism he once had.
I’m so glad that he’s moved on, but that doesn’t mean he needs to forget a past, unfinished work.
Its a dream Craig? Well, Arnold was a dreamer, and an idealist. If HA fans are anything like their favorite character, they will be too. There will always be hope for this movie, I think. No matter how impossible it seems.
