Unpopular opinion: I think 'Hey Arnold' was way better than 'The Magic School Bus'

My cousin swore The Magic School Bus was the best educational show, but I told her Hey Arnold tackled real kid problems like Helga’s secret love notes and Arnold’s weird attic. After 3 rewatches last month, I still think Arnold taught me more about life than Ms. Frizzle ever did. Anybody else side with the football head over the bus?

Wait, hold up - Ms. Frizzle literally turned her students into rocks to learn about erosion, Helga just cried in a closet. You're telling me a kid with a football-shaped head taught you more than the woman who literally owned a sentient bus? Hard disagree, my friend.

Helga taught me that being a kid is confusing and sometimes you just DON'T fit in, which is way more useful in real life than knowing how a volcano works. Turning kids into rocks is fun for a field trip but it doesn't help you deal with the fact that your mom forgot your lunch money AGAIN.
