Specifics on ''Arthur''

Dismore did an interview with the Arthur fan podcast Elwood City Limits in 2018 and spoke in-depth about his voice roles on that series. In particular, he spoke about his role as Arthur's father: "I've really only started to feel comfortable doing Dad in the last three or four years." He said he had started voicing "Dad" when he was rather young and being older and having children in real life by 2018 he felt he has started to "earn that role".

In November 2018, Dinsmore revealed that he had finished recording the final episodes in advance, nearly four years before the show's conclusion in 2022.

And I was just starting to get the hang of the whole Dad thing... Thanks 'Arthur' it's been a great ride. 'And I say, Hey......!'".
