    • Trivia

      ADD TRIVIA
      • Mr. Collins lives in Sundale, presumably California. According to mapquest.com, there is no town named Sundale, California. Edit
      • Greg's hero is Wilt Chamberlain; Peter's is George Washington; Cindy's is Joan of arc. Edit
      • In Mike's line, "Bobby knows better than to bring a cap gun to school," the insertion of "cap" seems forced, as though he might more naturally say, "bring a gun to school." Evidently it was to make clear to the viewers that a cap gun was in view. In today's climate, this would have led to an automatic suspension, or even an expulsion. Edit
