@LBTUploader Also the fact that there's more character development here than in most other episodes. Development from Lana, I mean. By being there for her, Tina helped her realize that she herself is even more important than all the characters she's played, and that her fans do indeed want to see her the way she really is.
even though i'm old i still like this show...i love their friendship, whatever the age. though i keep giggling at some of the corny moments it really makes me happy.
@only257 I never thought of the new electric company as ripping off ghostwriter. If it is, why are the characters so weak and unappealing compared to the GW team who bring you in emotionally? I remember the original Electric Co theme song. It's a good show for teaching spelling and sound, but not like GW.
All Roberta had to do was ask Lana to give her an honerable mention in her acceptance speech and she would have gotten a round of applause instead of getting arrested, hehe. Oh, irony.
1:44 Gaby cleans her hands on her dress. Guess the take took a while and Todd's mouth wet the tie/gag?
Plus, Todd/Rob wasn't able to spit it out because it was a *whole* tie, after all (and it reaches under his belt). It's a miracle he didn't choke on it, really...
Roberta obviously attempted to throw the wig off her head at 3:00
...and even if Roberta's plan had succeeded, someone would have found Lana tied up at gagged eventually and told police it was Roberta. There'd be an arrest out for her.
that was so funny when roberta hit rob over the head. I know this was a kid's show, but it looked so fake! They should have did that scene over again. It was funny!!
Haha. Oh gosh. I've read a lot of comments saying that Rob was their first childhood crush, but mine was Alex. I didn't like Tina because I wanted him for myself! ;)
Yeah, I never understood why Tina was so cold toward Alex. Part of it has to do with the way the lines are delivered, but partly with the script itself. She gives the impression that she just likes him as a friend. Poor guy, he is getting stringed along.
Me and my mom was at the edge of our seats when this first came out I wanna say this first aired in 1993 I was in 1st grade!! You had to wait a week just to see one episode man oh man those were the days!!!
I remember that. They were always cute together. Reminds me of how shy my ex and I were when we first met in 7th grade. We never began dating until 9th grade and dated for 4 years. True love at it's best.
FINALLY!!! You go Alex! :)

What I loved about this arc most:
Lana Barnes
The opening of the Alex&Tina relationship
How the Ghostwriter Team was used to reenact all of those past scenes
How creative the writers were with knocking out all of the suspects, making the team be wrong for once and how easily they missed the obvious.
Finally, how creative the special effects team was with Ghostwriter. He really looks great in this arc.
Oh, and Grandma Jenkins too.
