The character pages here should be merged back into the main article. This is the standard in these kinds of articles, for example Bash Street Kids. -- Tim Starling 23:55, Aug 6, 2003 (UTC)

Well, the headlines about the characters have to be really long and there should be a template of each of the characters, showing first appearance, height, hair color, relatives and favorite colors, although Phoebe's favorite colors are red and yellow. However in roles, Ms. Frizzle is the teacher and bus driver and the eight children are students. The rest of the class each have the color of hair they always have in all adaptations, except for Arnold, who is a redhead in the books and television series, and has blonde hair in the computer games. You will also need screenshots of the characters. --PJ Pete


Wow, all of a sudden we have a very extensive Magic School Bus section. Good work, even if there might, perhaps, be some somewhat more important matters out there. - SimonP 01:42, Aug 7, 2003 (UTC)

Indeed, it is good. But there are too many articles. See also Atlas Shrugged, for the primary precedent regarding article count in fiction articles. -- Tim Starling 01:53, Aug 7, 2003 (UTC)
I also just started a wikiquote section on the Magic School Bus. Daleliop1 09:34, 7 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Contents

[edit] Page Name

The Magic School Bus is a franchise. There's different kinds. If you're talking about the television series, the article must include the words in parentheses after the words "The Magic Scool Bus", "TV series." Also, there should be articles about the computer games and should contain information about the games. --PJ Pete

[edit] Liz

Liz's character bio lists her as "probably a chameleon." I'm afraid to argue with this (especially because of the scientifically accurate bug fact), but wasn't the joke that she is a monitor lizard? (She's the hall monitor, classroom monitor, etc., etc.)

[edit] Voice Actor Bios

Could someone please try to find out more about the actual voice actors/actresses who played these characters? Info is really lacking on some of them... Secos5 15:51, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Characters

I just did a new characters thing. Hopefully it won't be messed up too much. I have screencaps of my own I plan on adding to the character bios.

[edit] Theme Song Title

In the opening of the page, the theme song is given as "Ride on the Magic School Bus", but at the bottom it is listed as "On the Magic School Bus". Which is it?

[edit] Credits

The credits for this show take up a lot of space on the page. Are they really necessary? I haven't seen any other shows with credits listed. --Jothesmo 07:31, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
