Comments

  • This is just one of the almost half-dozen episodes which drum the message of "be yourself" into you. This one also simulataneously drums in the fact that you shouldn't do anything to try and alter yourself/improve yourself either at the same time.
  • D.W.'s suggestion of trading Arthur and Buster isn't as out of line as Mom and Dad make it out to be... Sue Ellen was thinking pretty much the same thing in #22002 - "Sue Ellen's Little Sister". They wouldn't have had to have swapped permanently; a couple of days would have been enough -- they basically became each other anyway.
  • This is one episode where Arthur has some dumb lines -- Really dumb. "Wow, you guys really beat us!" ??? As in "Wow! My team sure does stink -- and I certainly did not help."
  • It's a wee bit depressing that the characters of Arthur and Buster can be perfectly summed up by taking up the character traits of "going on about sisters and pet dog" and "telling jokes"... Is that all Arthur and Buster have going for them? :/
