Characters

Trivia

  • During the Jolly Jollisters segment, you could see Buster watching himself on TV.

Cultural references

  • This episode features parodies of "The Happy Hollisters," (Jolly Jollisters) "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" (Sam and the Sandwich Company), and the style of stories and illustrations of Dr. Seuss.

Episode connections

  • Buster mentions that his dad is a pilot. In the following episode, Arthur's Faraway Friend, Buster leaves for a couple of months to travel with his dad.
  • There is apparently a Scare-Your-Pants-Off-Club TV show now. Buster mentions that instead of reading the SYPOC books, he watched the TV episodes.

Errors

  • At the start, Mr. Ratburn can be seen writing on the blackboard with his left hand, although he is normally right-handed.
  • In "Arthur's Lost Library Book", Buster is seen reading a joke book. However, in this episode it is said he has never read a book before.

Production Notes

  • This is the first episode to use the Stampede as a title card.
