* "The Legend of Arnold" film, where everyone Arnold knows, from his classmates to his flatmates to urban legends, all sing his praises. In a town teeming with modern mythologies, Arnold has earned his spot among the greats just by being a good kid.

** Helga's part in helping Arnold find his parents earns her a kiss. As screwed up as her pining was during the series, her moment of heroism unambiguously demonstrated that she's worthy of Arnold's love.

** The big get was Creator/FrancescaMarieSmith reprising her role as Helga. The fans likely wouldn't have accepted anyone else in the role, and despite Smith being thirty-two at the time of the premiere and having retired from acting after the show ended, she came out of retirement to reprise her role and doesn't miss a beat.

It helps that she has openly spoken fondly of Craig Bartlett and her time as Helga, making it very easy to get her to reprise the role.
