This Filmmaker Reimagined Arthur as an Edgy Teen Drama & We're Shook
A teenage murder mystery drama truly worthy of The CW!
With what began as an innocent children's animated television series, PBS' 1996 hit show Arthur has followed its initial target audience into adulthood, and its characters have been the subject of countless memes.
Now, it's been reimagined as an edgy teen drama.
Daniel Nkoola, a college student in Austin, Texas, has brought that idea to life—and it's just as incredible as you might think. He posted the minute-and-a-half video on Twitter and it currently has over 10,000 retweets.
