I would've loved it if they took a visit to the Korean DMZ for the purposes of studying the creatures who took refuge there. Rare Korean Tigers would've otherwise gone endangered or even extinct if there was no DMZ to protect them. (There are also other rare creatures there too.) It would have been awesome to see how North and South Koreans were depicted in the show.

The DMZ may be restricted, but as this show was fictional, you could say they got an "access pass" to enter the zone. --Shultz 09:14, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Nickelodeon Hair

What exactly is Nickelodeon Hair. Or more appropriattely, how did that phrase come about? I have never seen it anywhere else. Akkifokkusu 11:37, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

Response to "Nickelodeon Hair": I'm guessing that "Nickelodeon hair" would refer to the "waves" given to many characters in popular Nickelodeon cartoons. Hey Arnold!, The Wild Thornberrys, As Told by Ginger, and Rugrats (among others) seem to sport this characteristic hair type. Of course, this does not apply to all cartoons within the network. I'm not really clear on how the term came about. 68.231.77.237 04:42, 8 January 2007 (UTC) Lauren (1/7/07)

[edit] Episodes as a new article?

Other television shows (specifically, other Nicktoons) have the episodes in a separate article as a list (see List of Hey Arnold! episodes). Since the episodes here are just a list, should we consider moving them to a new article, or will that make this main article too short? Steve McLinden 15:37, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] last episode?

what was happened in the last episode?i would appreciate if anyone could tell me...The Pink Panther 07:33, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Nothing on the Vehicle?

I seem to remember that their vehicle was a pretty big part of the show, often a Deus Ex Machina of sorts or a catalyst for episodes (as in the one where it inflates a raft like device that allows them to avoid a waterfall, or the one where the security system goes on the fritz and locks them out, trapping them on an island) with its ability to transform suited to various terrains. I don't seem to remember its name, though, or much about it. I do think it would be a useful addition to the article. AlexDitto 01:50, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] "Who talked to Eilza"

Is it just me, or is a list of animals Eliza has talked to fancruft? Kochdude388 03:14, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Recent Vandalism

Just as a precautionary notice, there has been some vandalism to this article recently, mainly revolving around Telitubbies (sp?) and nudity. If this persists, perhaps a temporary block is in order. -dogman15 05:06, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] A source that could be used: Jerry Beck's Not Just Cartoons: Nicktoons!

I found a book in the bookstore called Not Just Cartoons: Nicktoons! by Jerry Beck. I'm not going to buy it and join the project, but I will ask the other members to get the book so that they can add real world information about various fictional characters.

This makes the creation of separate articles for *many* fictional characters feasible. Having information about the development of the character will make the articles satisfy Wikipedia:Notability (fiction)

[edit] Goofs

I think there are some facts that they got wrong in this show:

  • While Eliza was eating some cheese a mongoose came and said it is a mouse. Mongooses are not rodents.
  • In one episode jackals where hunting a zebra. I'm fairly sure jackals don't hunt animals as big as a fully grown zebra. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 196.207.32.37 (talk) 21:23, 30 December 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Upskirt and Eliza Dress

Hey shouldn't something make mention of whatever Eliza wore for most of the episodes, the shirt looking thing. Also shouldn't a mention be in there about the fact when she wore that outfit alot of upskirt shots were present and conveniently edited out when they went to Nicktoons. 75.179.153.39 (talk) 10:06, 1 January 2008 (UTC)
