    • Trivia

    • Goofs
      When Arthur and D.W. fight over the TV remote, when the channel is switching between the networks showing Arthur's favorite TV show "Bionic Bunny" and D.W.'s favorite TV show "Mary Moo Cow", Bionic Bunny from his namesake show is shown in front of the channel-changing waves. In reality, channel-changing waves overlap the images shown on the TV screen during the course of changing the channels.

      Arthur: D.W. how would you like to be my assistant? I'll give you 2 dollars.

      D.W.: Arthur, you know I'd do anything for you. For money.
