Ms. Frizzle... Wizard?
 

Now we've all watched The Magic Schoolbus, and I have to ask - is Ms. Frizzle a wizard? I mean, she has a magic schoolbus, a sentient lizard and an incredible wardrobe. It just makes sense. I mean, you'd need wizardly powers just to put up with the constant

A wizard? Yes. An epic level one.

She is also, incidentally, completely fucking batshit bonkers.

Really, she has to be insane. I think the episode where we learned about the reproductive cycle of chickens was hilarious, especially how it kept avoiding saying "sex" for 30 minutes.

It's unfortunate they put this show on before school because inevitably one would have to compare the 7 hours of drudgery ahead of them with the spectacular lava ride the kids on the show got to go on.

She might just be a really mad scientist. She could have built the bus out of, like... the stuff the Transformers are made of and given it some sort of brain. And she could have grown Liz out of a vat after mixing reptile DNA with that of a human to make a smart lizard.

Oh damn, I just had an idea. Live-action Magic School Bus. I only say this because I had a wicked image of the bus transforming.

I'm thinking she just multiclassed.
Seriously though, their school system has some kind of budget. Or she's funding these things out of her own pocket.

Of course she's a wizard of some sort. It's a magic school bus, not "remarkably technologically advanced school bus."

She didn't just put up with Arnold, she once had to put up with JANET for a whole episode. And if any of you remember the details of the "Lost in Space" episode, you realize what an incredible feat that is.

On the topic of that episode, Arnold freezing on Pluto fucking terrified me as a child.

Wasn't it Phoebe who couldn't get past the fact that she was no longer at her old school and move on with her life?
That and Dorthy-Ann. I'm amazed one of the other kids didn't just push her out of the bus when they were in that one kid's intestines or something.

There was a magic schoolbus CARTOON?
I remember the books and the videogames. But a cartoon? Surely that will just be batshit insane.
I don't know whether idea repulses or entrances me.

Wha? You definitely missed out on some sheer awesomness.

PREPARE TO HAVE YOUR MIND FUCKING BLOWN!

You know, upon rewatching the one where they go inside that kid's body, I've realized that this show closely mirrors LSD trips..
