I really think 'Timothy Goes to School' is My Favorite cartoon show I espically love the Franks and their whole family because they have fat cheeks and their voice is cute.

[edit] Frank & Frank

So, why are they both called Frank? And why are their voices so odd? I was wondering if they were part of the show to illustrate people with disabilities being integrated into a mainstream group. GBC 18:30, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

No, I am not kidding. That doesn't answer my question.71.166.56.84 01:42, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

There is no information ttbomk regarding Frank and Frank and their learning capacity, but my suspicion is that Frank & Frank may be learning disabled - I wouldn't say severely, since their speech and ability to remember suggests otherwise, but probably mild to moderate...as for why they are both called Frank, I have not got a clue. Thor Malmjursson 12:18, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

How come they seem learning disabled? I don't want to come across as challenging or anything... I'm just curious. I always enjoy hearing people's opinions, and plus, I'd like to learn more about this show. (Oh, and I think they're both called Frank simply because it's funny.)71.166.56.84 22:08, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

Well, my elder brother is moderately learning disabled, and He displays a number of the traits which the 2 Franks do, like the slight stutter in Frank 2, the inability to follow instructions, broken speech (taking longer to say things than someone of standard mental capacity), plus it also appears to me that the Franks are of a slightly lower "mental age" than the rest of the group. It may be, I don't know, that the Franks are simply victims of Global Learning Delay, rather than an actual learning disability, but I could not be 100% certain. Plus, unless its the dog breed, have you noticed how they both display facial traits resembling Down's Syndrome? Just a guess... :) Thor Malmjursson 09:59, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

Interesting! You know, I'm beginning to think they were added to illustrate people with disabilities being integrated into a mainstream group myself. Of course, I don't see any official sources, but I do know that sometimes writers put these things in and let the readers/viewers figure it out themselves... Which is the sort of thing I love... But anyway, I'm starting to take this show way too seriously now. ;) 71.166.56.84 17:42, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Episode notability

Many or all of the existing individual episode pages for this series appear to fail the notability guidelines for television episodes, and have been tagged accordingly. These articles can be improved through the inclusion of real-world information from reliable sources to assert notability. Overly long plot summaries should be edited, to a maximum length of approximately ten words per minute of screen time. Trivia should be integrated into the body of the article, or removed if it is not directly relevant. Quotes and images should only be used as part of a critical analysis of the episode. You might also consider merging any notable information onto the show's "List of episodes" or season pages. Otherwise, when these pages come up for review, they may be redirected or merged. If you want any help or further information, then come to Wikipedia:WikiProject Television/Episode coverage. Thanks.
