come on bus, do your stuff, 27 June 2005
8/10
Author: composer_mike from Edoass

-Who knew getting educated could be so much fun

-The show revolves around a teacher, her students and a magic school bus. in each episode the class goes on various field trips and on each field trip they learn something new about the how world works. From how bees make honey, to how the respiratory system works. The bus has a magical ability to transform into anything that the episode requires hence the term "magic school bus". The teacher Ms. Frizzle voiced by Lily Tomlin is without a doubt the best teacher in the world. She's smart, funny and kooky. She reminds me of my Lit. teacher in high school. Her students are a very small group of kids that each have their own trademark that makes them special. From Arnold who keeps wishing he had stayed home, Phoebe who keeps reminding everyone of how things were like at her old school, Carlos who loves making bad jokes, Ralphie, DA, Tim and Wanda. Carlos is my personal favorite because like me he loves to make bad jokes.

-This is a great show that kids of today need to watch. It's fun and entertaining and you actually learn something.
