They even white-washed Arnold for fucks sake. Took away his curly hair and his nose. At least the new animation is reflective of the anxiety kids face these days

    Outsourcing all your animation to the lowest bidder yields predictably bad results.

    I wouldn't even say this is "sucking the soul" out of the property, as Magic Schoolbus was itself a childish riff on old 60s-era Sci-Fi like Fantastic Voyage. But the embarrassingly bad production value suggests the producers are simply capitalizing on nostalgia, rather than trying to add something to the franchise.
