Seriously, I had to look up who Griffin McElroy was in order to try and find out who Carl looks like to the person asking this question.

The Arthur character in question is Carl Gould, the best friend of George Lundgren (the moose with the ventriloquists dummy).

ok but can we seriously talk about how this character looks exactly like griffin mcelroy

Toe to Tip, that’s a McElroy

Take it to the bank, boys. This one’s just like Griffin.
