Trivia
- In "Arthur's Perfect Christmas", Brain's dad is seen carrying one of D.W.'s classmates. This has brought up that Brain has a neverbefore seen sibling or a cousin/other relative.
- Brain has a fear of water, and is very talented in soccer, on the cello, and academically, hence his name.
- Brain is actually suppose to be in the same grade as Prunella, but due to him being a "crier" he was held back a year.
- Brain also works: He works in his family's ice cream store and teaches in summer school.
- Brain's goal is to be an astrophysicist.
- Brain tends to be a "report hog", meaning he has to do all the work for group projects.
- His usual marks are either an A or an A+, but his lowest mark seen in the show was a B-, seen in the episode Breezy Listening Blues. [Note: In the episode "Brain Gets Hooked", Brain recieves a C on his Magna Carta report; however, Mr. Ratburn allows him to redo his project, and it is implied that he recieves a higher grade when he presents his report the second time.]
- In seasons 3-4, the Brain's voice went through a drastic change due to the fact that Luke Reid was going through puberty at the time, although Marc Brown later decided the voice tone for the Brain was too deep, so he decided to assign new voiceovers to voice Brain who can sound like his original voice from season 1, and would again sign a new voiceover if that actor's voice goes into a drastic change.
