It was garbage
FFirst of all it was a little teasing with her sweater
Second of all ARTHUR IS RIGHT. HE GOT TEASED CONSISTENTLY IN THE OLD DAYS BUT NOBODY CARED THEN
Why is Sue Ellen crying? She knows judo n karate. She owned binky and she'd destroy arthur
Weird episode
It was a bad episode. Sue Ellen and especially Arthur were both very out of character.

I thought the episode was great. I'm assuming that the characterization in that episode was meant to be different to strengthen the moral. They handled this a lot better than in "Arthur's Big Hit."

Hey, like I said before, I'm a fan of when people act "out of character", because people do that sometimes. That being said, it'd be nice if it were to have some sort of justification. Arthur isn't the type of guy to indiscriminately "bully" someone, and Sue Ellen sure as hell isn't the type to take that kind of crap. It's sad that such nonsensical "casting", if you will, must serve as such a distraction for what could, if handled correctly, have been a fairly good latter-day episode on this sadly ever-more-problematic subject.
shareI liked the message of the episode that anybody can be a bully and anybody can be the victim. Though maybe it would have been better to use Jenna who can defend herself but is more shy than Sue Ellen.

Basically Sue Ellen and Fern switched bodies
Ever since Sue Ellen's original voice actor left the character has not been the same
Also Buster supposedly outgrew Bionic Bunny but in other eps..............
I would guess that aside from showing that anyone can be the victim, it was meant to show that such actions are more hurtful coming from a friend, someone you trust and count on. And perhaps, considering the Sue Ellen character, it would be easier for her to beat up the school bully for hurting her or others than it would be for her to hurt Arthur, because even though he was bullying her, he had been her friend. Someone in such a position would probably feel very betrayed and conflicted. Not to mention, martial arts tend to emphasize self-defence, so beating up someone for verbal harassment would never be condoned.
shareI can't watch this episode because it's just so bad.
Arthur has been bullied before, so you'd think that he would know better. It would have made more sense if the bully was someone like Francine or Muffy. Besides, didn't we already have an "anti-bullying" themed episode?
SIND SIE DAS ESSEN NEIN WIR SIND DER JÄGER
Well, someone who is bullied sometimes lashes out and becomes a bully for various reasons, though in this case Arthur doesn't really qualify as such a person. Arthur is more the oblivious bully. Someone who engages in bullying without realizing that his behaviour has crossed over from "all in good fun" to potentially seriously damaging to the other person. He doesn't seem to realize how cruel he is being.
shareWell, you get you bullied, you become a bully. That WAS an odd episode.

Regardless it was still a strange episode.

I agree, for starters,
- Sue Ellen is known for being the "tough badass" one who knows karate.
- She didn't let Binkys bullying bother her, so why would Arthur's teasing bother her.
- Plus Francine and Muffy and hypocrites for calling Arthur out when they've bullied people plenty of times.
- Francine made fun of his glasses and baby teeth and never apologized.
- Muffy made fun of Francine's footed pijamas calling them "babyish"
