The character pages here should be merged back into the main article. This is the standard in these kinds of articles, for example Bash Street Kids. -- Tim Starling 23:55, Aug 6, 2003 (UTC)
Well, the headlines about the characters have to be really long and there should be a template of each of the characters, showing first appearance, height, hair color, relatives and favorite colors, although Phoebe's favorite colors are red and yellow. However in roles, Ms. Frizzle is the teacher and bus driver and the eight children are students. The rest of the class each have the color of hair they always have in all adaptations, except for Arnold, who is a redhead in the books and television series, and has blonde hair in the computer games. You will also need screenshots of the characters. --PJ Pete
Wow, all of a sudden we have a very extensive Magic School Bus section. Good work, even if there might, perhaps, be some somewhat more important matters out there. - SimonP 01:42, Aug 7, 2003 (UTC)
The Magic School Bus is a franchise. There's different kinds. If you're talking about the television series, the article must include the words in parentheses after the words "The Magic Scool Bus", "TV series." Also, there should be articles about the computer games and should contain information about the games. --PJ Pete
Liz's character bio lists her as "probably a chameleon." I'm afraid to argue with this (especially because of the scientifically accurate bug fact), but wasn't the joke that she is a monitor lizard? (She's the hall monitor, classroom monitor, etc., etc.)
Could someone please try to find out more about the actual voice actors/actresses who played these characters? Info is really lacking on some of them... Secos5 15:51, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
I just did a new characters thing. Hopefully it won't be messed up too much. I have screencaps of my own I plan on adding to the character bios.
In the opening of the page, the theme song is given as "Ride on the Magic School Bus", but at the bottom it is listed as "On the Magic School Bus". Which is it?
The credits for this show take up a lot of space on the page. Are they really necessary? I haven't seen any other shows with credits listed. --Jothesmo 07:31, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
That is exactly what I thought, either merge important figures or get rid of it. Andrewjd 17:41, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

There was a recent merge of Ms. Frizzle into this article without discussion, that was reverted then reverted back. The first revert clearly indicated interest in *not* merging, so I've created this place for discussion.Rhindle The Red 13:48, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
And yet Ms. Frizzle has no character information, just a link to her article, which is a re-directed link back to the magic school bus page. So now she has neither a page of her own or a character article as a subsection of this one. Where is her information? Nekorin 11:52, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
Is it ever actually specified in the series that Keesha's surname is Franklin? I know it's her grandmother's surname, but I don't remember them ever saying whether that was her maternal or paternal grandmother. (And while we're on the subject of surnames, where does the "Terese" reference for Phoebe come from?) -- Agur bar Jacé 14:03, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
In what state could the fictional town of Walkerville mentioned in the series be? I presume it could be Washington State, location of Microsoft, Montana or Michigan, both of which have their own Walkervilles, or Colorado, as that its location appeared to be on a map in a MSB computer game. Could any one verify this?Thegreatglobetrotter 20:55, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
If so, her bio page should be updated and a citation given. 169.232.78.24 (talk)
Will someone please list the names of all of the Magic School Bus chapter books on this article?68.250.129.168 (talk) 00:43, 5 December 2008 (UTC)
