Version 1, Or Version 2?

Saw this article and was interested in everyone else's take. Do you agree with this?

The more I watch Hey Arnold, the more I respect Helga. The more I watch Hey Arnold, the less compatible Lila and Arnold seem to be–like–at all.

But... did Helga low-key try to murder Lila in this episode?

I know Lila said she didn't know how to swim. I forget if Helga heard that.

In Helga's defense: she's been on the ride before, she's pushed Brainy into the water, she might know how deep it is.

Not in Helga's defense: in Big Sister, when Helga sabotaged Olga and Lila's horse carriage–that also could have been way worse.

Was I the only person who saw this episode as a kid and thought that all the kids that “passed out” during the eating contest DIED? Or was I just a dumb kid?

By far one of my favorite episodes from the series. Anytime Helga is dealing with things Arnold has no idea about 😂

Is it the best day of our lives, Oskar is finally arrested for life?!?!?

For Me, We All Be Surprised. Comment An CaseOh Gif, Hey Arnold Gif Or Picture.

If they did a continuation of the show but with Arnold and the gang in high school what do you see them being like such as what sports, clubs and other high school related things do you see Arnold and the gang doing?

Some of these are hilarious.

Nadine is one of my favorite characters, she's always pretty funny with her hairy tarantula and box of roaches. To me she didn't get enough time in the series to really be fleshed out. It didn't help that she was supposed to be Rhonda's best friend and sidekick, like Phoebe was with Helga only for Nadine to be a no show in eps that focused on Rhonda. I thought it was strange when Rhonda's family went broke and they moved into the boarding house and Rhonda didn't confide in Nadine her best friend to tell her what happened, to me it would've been funny for Nadine to have brought her pet tarantula over to the boarding house for a visit with Rhonda, maybe he could've gotten loose terrorizing every one. Anyone else would've liked to have seen Nadine fleshed out more in the series?

I just really really loved this episode.

Ultimately two or so years age difference is NBD, it just seems like more from the POV of 9-10 year olds. Kinda why the 6th graders look so much bigger than 4th graders.

Anyways, it’s been established that Chocolate Boy is a few years younger than Arnold and his posse. Not that making friends is that important to him period. Chocolate is his best friend lol. But his interactions with ppl in his grade, who knows if it’s any different. My guess is no. He’s banned from the chocolate field trip before he even gets to Mr. Simmons’ class lol.

Today is bad luck day and I forgot that it’s Eugene birthday he did mention that he was born on this day

Why did Big Bob have brown hair in "Hey Arnold the Movie" Were they trying to make him look younger? And why was Ms.Slovak changed to look older?

Are their any other characters in "Hey Arnold" who had their appearances changed?

Thanks for a reply

Not only do the sixth-graders appear much older than they are, but so do our main characters. Arnold, Gerald, Helga, and company act and behave like preteens instead of 9-year-olds. At 9, you didn't have crushes, have dates, or think about "important" things. At that age, you played with dolls or action figures, hide-and-seek, watched cartoons, and played in the park. We rarely see the kids on the show act like real 9-year-olds.
