    • Trivia
      When Maynard whistles for Arthur the Mynah Bird to return to the classroom window, a rabbit appears on the sill instead. Maynard puts him back outside saying, "Sorry, Bugs, wrong whistle," a nod to Mel Blanc, the voice of Bugs Bunny.. Blanc provided the voices for the two Mynah Birds, and was the voice of the auto salesman in the commercial on Maynard's portable radio.
