  • This rare "Behind the Scenes" look at "The Magic School Bus" TV series originally aired on PBS as part of the "Family Holiday Special" in 1996. It was removed from future re-runs of the episode.
    Thankfully Dolly Parton (voice of Murph in the Holiday Special)'s Vimeo page has the original 1-hour special with the BTS segment intact.

I mean, Danny clearly has Arnold’s Hair, only no glasses😂! Maia(Phoebe) Tara(Dorothy Ann) & Stuart(Ralphie), not really. But all the actors precisely have their characters personalities!!

    I totally loved the magic school bus series and I never missed a single episode and I have read all of the magic school bus books. I really loved miss frizzle a lot because she's my favorite character and a fun loving, caring, friendly and cool science teacher ever. I wished that all teachers in special education were more like miss frizzle.

    Erica Luttrell was on a ROLL in the 90's as a Child Actor and Voice Actor.
    By the time she was doing The Magic School Bus, she had already been in
    another HUGE kids show for two seasons; and that was her role as Kara Cupper on
    "Shining Time Station."
    Erica was in Two of the BIGGEST and Most Popular Children's TV shows Ever created.
    The numbers and ratings on that side of it plus the MASS positive popularity of these shows speaks for itself.
    It's almost Indescribable to somebody who wasn't around to experience PBS in those days.
    Being Raised on Shining Time Station and The Magic School Bus was amazing in the 90's.
    Props and Respect to Erica Luttrell .
    If You are out there, Erica,
    As a Fan from Atlantic Maritime Canada, just know You are a Forever Legend among us early 90's kids who were raised on PBS.
