Arnold Visits Arnie
Arnold goes to the country to visit his cousin Arnie (as seen in "Weird Cousin"), and notices something very familiar about Arnie's friends
Written by Michelle Lamoreaux

  • Although some of the characters were the opposite of their "big city" counterparts (Lila the "city slicker", Helga the nice person), most of them were just duplicates of other characters (Fifi - Stinky, Stumpy - Phoebe (notice Stumpy is short and Fifi is tall), Kid - Gerald, Gerard - Sid, Harry - Rhonda, Rhoda - Harold).
  • So where was:
    • Ewen (Eugine), who's incredibly safety-conscious?
    • Noreen (Nadine), who can't stand bugs (well, she can stand on them)?
    • Sheila (Sheena), who just can't say no to a good fight? You can pair her with Hilda, or with Penny (Patty), who doesn't like violence?
  • Couldn't they come up with a better name for Harold's country equivalent than Harry? (How about Henry? Okay, it's not as easy as it looks...)
  • Helga and Hilda were the names of the two secretaries on Hogan's Heroes.
  • One of the actors in Evil Twin 3 looks like the kid who took Arnold's ball in "The List".
  • That was a strange ending - how much of Arnold's visit was a dream, and just when did he arrive back home?

Chocolate Boy
After gorging on a ten-pound bag of chocolate, Chocolate Boy turns to Arnold for help in giving up chocolate
Story by Steve Viksten and Joseph Purdy

Chocolate Boy - Jordan Warkol
Wolfgang - Toran Caudell
Edmund - Tim Wiley

  • When Gerald described the things Arnold has done, he included "saving the boarding house" - when? (He prevented Grandpa from selling it in "Casa Paradiso", but that's not exactly "saving it", as the buyer didn't sound like he was going to destroy it, and this episode was made before the movie.)
  • Something tells me I don't really want to know the answer to this one: how does Chocolate Boy eat ten pounds of chocolate without gaining weight?
  • Usually, this show doesn't resort to "cheesy visual effects" like Chocolate Boy turning red and having flames shoot out of his mouth right after he ate a hot pepper.
  • So now do we call him "Radish Boy"?  (Then again, he never shows up again after this episode, except maybe in background scenes.)
