It Girl
Helga's world-be-damned attitude makes her the newest sensation in the fashion world, but she's tired of everyone
else trying to look like her

Gerald - Jamil Smith

Phoebe - Anndi L. McAfee
Rhonda - Olivia Hack

Lila, (uncredited) Katrinka - Ashley Buccille
Big Bob Pataki, Revis - Maurice LaMarche

Miriam Pataki - Kath E. Soucie
Mr. Simmons - Dan Butler
Johnny Stitches - Michael McKean
E3 reporter - Julie Brown
This is "Downtown" Julie Brown, the one-time MTV VJ, and not the actress Julie Brown from Clueless and The Middle
Camille - Nika
- Nickelodeon - the network where you can't say "dead" but you can say
"bollocks" and "kiss my bum". (American translations: "balls" and "kiss
my butt".)
- Look closely at the screen when Big Bob is watching the Revis
& Jackie Lee tape - there's snow appearing on regular intervals at
the bottom of the screen. What, you thought your VCR was the only one that did that?
- Johnny Stitches tells Helga that she'll be wearing his new Spring line, but she's
wearing her usual dress at the show
- The reporter's microphone says "E3" (I assume it's a takeoff on Entertainment Tonight's "ET" microphone)
- Helga says "I've been wearing this pink dress for years"; it's probably
a reference to all of those shows (Hey Arnold! included)
where the characters never seem to change clothes.
- Special Thanks: Kathie Lee Gifford - Kathie Lee made it...where was Regis?

Deconstructing Arnold
The other kids in Arnold's class get tired of Arnold giving them advice - until they discover there's no one else
there to do it

Storyboard Direction by Chris Headrick
Animation Direction by Frank Weiss
Storyboard Artist: Ted Seko
Cast:
Arnold - Spencer Klein
Helga - Francesca Smith
Gerald - Jamil Smith
Harold - Justin Shenkarow
Sid - Sam Gifaldi
Stinky - Christopher Walberg
Rhonda - Olivia Hack
Eugene - Ben Diskin
Curly - Haley Joel Osment
- In the first scene, when Arnold is waiting for the bus, Arnold stands perfectly
still as if he's painted into the background
- What, there are still people out there who have never heard of the "Is your
refrigerator running?" phone call? (Don't try calling tobacco shops and asking if they have Prince Albert
in a can - and then telling them to let him out before he suffocates; they're all onto that one.) Let's hope
Sid and company don't call someone with Caller ID (then again, it's Lorenzo's phone, isn't it?)
- The ad on the side of the bus is for "Styro Puffs"; on the back, it's
for some bottled beverage ("Quenches your thirst!")
- Inside the bus (in the first scene with Rhonda and Curly), there's an ad saying
"Appearing: Dino Spumoni"
- When Eugene breaks into the area with the dogs, you see the pedals of his bike
tossed into the air, but the pedals fell off on the other side of the street
- Nadine had a "line" (she was giggling in one scene), but it wasn't
credited, and I can't say for sure who did it (it sounded more like Francesca Smith's "Sheena" voice
than Lauren Robinson)
- I see football-headed people: yes, Curly is voiced by the Haley Joel Osment who
received an Oscar nomination for The Sixth Sense
