The friendship between Arnold and Gerald is one that fans have come to cherish! The children in the show were mostly voiced by actual kids, something unusual in animation.

Gerald had the same voice actor throughout the show, and his changing voice was explained in the show as being due to having his tonsils removed.
2. Arnold And Gerald Walking Through The City
