This cartoon contains examples of:

• Abandoned Catchphrase: Every character (except for Arnold and D.A no longer use their catchphrases from the previous series).
• An Aesop: The episode of "Ready, Set up, Fail" has Ms. Frizzle set up up a chore for the students to perform and specifically wants them to fail, so they could learn from their failures and eventually come up upwards with a design that will work to achieve their desired goal. The moral being that one can learn a lot from failure and that it is nothing to be ashamed of.
• And Starring: "With Lily Tomlin as Professor Frizzle."
• Adapted Out: Merely Phoebe hasn't returned, every bit Arnold states that she moved back to her old schoolhouse.
• Art Evolution: Justified, equally standard TV animation has gone through so many desperate changes in the 20 years since the last episodes of the original serial aired. In add-on to the more streamlined designs and colored eyes (instead of Blackness Bead Eyes) on all of the characters, the animation itself managed to bypass the switch from cels to digitally colored traditional animation entirely and go straight to ToonBoom puppet animation. The series was originally going to be all-CG, but presumably, the evidence's upkeep was diddled getting Kate McKinnon and Lin-Manuel Miranda, resulting in the animation beingness severely scaled back.
• Artistic License – Animal Intendance: Carlos not simply has a rat that is by itself, but the cage is manner too small-scale (peculiarly the cycle) for that rat.
• Artistic License – Biological science:
  • In Episode 1, rabbits are depicted with pads on the bottom of their paws.
  • Wild bananas were shown pointing downwards at the end of "Ralphie and the Flying Tennelis", which is jarring since "Hides and Seeks" correctly portrayed them pointing up.
• Audience Surrogate: Arnold in Episode i is similar to the fans of the old series trying to conform to the class now being led past Fiona instead of Valerie, and he also as the audience learns that the modify isn't really bad at all.

• Edutainment Show: It nevertheless keeps the original's theme on scientific discipline, merely updates the facts and technology to exist more upwardly-to-date.
• Finish-of-Series Awareness: Although about likely not wanting to call their shots in case they don't get renewed, the 2nd flavour finale ending has a viewer asking when they're going to run across Ms. Frizzle once more, and she dodges the question instead of giving a straight answer. Notably the series would continue in the form of various specials none of which have any appearances from Ms. Frizzle.
• 5-Token Ring: Arnold (Jew), Dorothy Ann (white), Carlos (Hispanic), Jyoti (Indian), Tim and Keesha (black), Wanda (Asian) and Ralphie (Italian).
• Flashback with the Other Darrin: In an example involving animation styles, the endmost credits of the 2020-2021 specials show stills from original series episodes redrawn in the new fashion.
• The Generic Guy: Every kid in this reboot is like having eight Tims. Unlike the other serial where each kid had distinct personalities and dissimilar ways of learning, every kid in this serial is like a flat Blank Slate.
• Hard Truth Aesop: "Set, Prepare, Fail" depicts the students existence given a task that they cannot reach on the kickoff effort, and are intentionally supposed to fail and larn from it. A very good Aesop, but considering how most people interpret failure, information technology's very much a difficult truth.

• Put on a Bus: Ironic, because the show. Phoebe returns to her former schoolhouse and is replaced by a new student named Jyoti.
• Race Against the Clock: "In the Zone" has the motorbus suffer a malfunction that could exit the kids stuck in a random transformation when the charabanc reboots at midnight, literally racing against the time zones to give them more fourth dimension before midnight.

• Sequel Hook: Much like Joanna Cole's original books, each episode ends with Professor Frizzle clarifying a few things almost the episode's lessons, while giving a tease for the side by side i.
• Strong Family Resemblance: Ms. Frizzle's younger sister looks exactly like her except for having slightly darker hair and wearing her hair downward.
• Sudden Middle Colour: From the Black Bead Optics of the original books and cartoons to everyone having eye colours like what is more than common in contemporary cartoons.
• Suspiciously Similar Substitute:
  • Ms. Frizzle has retired from being a coach driver and has been succeeded by her younger sister, Fiona.
  • Phoebe is the only child who doesn't return, on account of having transferred back to her erstwhile school. She is replaced with new lookalike student Jyoti.
• Stealth Pun: The field trip in "The Proficient, the Bad, and the Gnocchi" is on a ranch made entirely out of pasta and is western themed. It is pretty much a Spaghetti Western.

• Town Girls:
  • Wanda and Dorothy Ann are the Butch, Keesha and Ms Frizzle are the femme and Jyoti is the neither.
