Alien (Fernkenstein's Monster)

Fern suggested an alien as a less-scary option for her story in "Fernkenstein's Monster", but it was still too scary, so she had to make it even nicer.
It also appeared in the opening of "The Squirrels" where Arthur explains that scary and not-scary things can be very similar. It flew down in its Flying Saucer and knocked on Arthur's door. He slammed the door in its face, but it tried reaching its tentacle through the mail slot. Arthur sprinkled salt on it, and the alien shrunk down to a few inches tall. It then flew away, defeated.
In "Meet Me at the Fair", Buster imagined two of these aliens landing in an old car that he mistook for a UFO.

Alien Detector

Category:Objects
An Alien Detector is an electronic device that can supposedly tell if someone is an alien in disguise.
Bionic Bunny used one to detect that a little girl was really Kodo in disguise. To make certain Harry Mills was not an alien, Buster planned to use the device on him, but Harry accidentally broke it first by stepping on it. He had earlier tested it on the television, proving that a woman on a game show was an alien. Both Harry and Buster use the gadgets on Mr. Ratburn, and they both read that he is an alien.
Considering how the detector has never once said the person in question was not an alien, it is likely just a toy and doesn't really work.

Alien troll

The alien troll is a two-headed extraterrestrial creature from the Planet Tabooni.
He has been observing Elwood City for twenty years and collecting special items, including what he believes to be D.W.'s snowball. However, because Nadine switches the snowball with a croquet ball, the alien troll actually takes the croquet ball unknowingly. He keeps the croquet ball in the main exhibit hall of the museum on Tabooni.
== Trivia ==
* Much like the Ghost of Lunch Tomorrow, this character's faces look very similar to Binky's.

Aliens

Aliens are beings not from the planet Earth. Although mostly appearing in imagination, they are indeed real and have appeared on several occasions (without the kids noticing). Buster is well known for believing in them, and several others also do.
Their design has varied more than any other character on the show, mostly depending on:
*the episode
*if they are real or imagined
*if imagined, who is imagining them
There is an extremely slight chance that the entire show is actually acted out (or at least reenacted) by aliens, as seen in the ending of "The Boy Who Cried Comet!."

Aliens (Sue Ellen Moves In)

One species of aliens has large, bulgy brains.
Buster imagined that Sue Ellen was one of them in "Sue Ellen Moves In."
Although a different species of alien stole the snowball in "D.W.'s Snow Mystery," Buster imagined that these aliens did it. At the end of "Return of the Snowball," it is revealed that they indeed did steal the snowball.
Buster imagined that they came to Earth to capture a human in "I Owe You One," and picked Arthur, but they allowed Buster to be taken instead because Buster owed Arthur favors and he really wanted to finish his book.

All Kids Can Character Search was a contest from February 1 to March 31, 2009. Viewers aged 6 to 12 could submit a design for a new character to appear on the show, with an emphasis on varying abilities or disabilities. The winner was Connor Gordon with his character Lydia Fox, who first appeared in in "The Wheel Deal", an episode focusing on the abilities of those in wheelchairs. Gordon meets Marc Brown and discusses the character in the "And Now a Word From Us Kids" segment after "The Wheel Deal". This segment is also shown alongside a repackaged version of "Prunella's Special Edition", another episode that introduces a character with a prominent disability.

Hawaii
We're in Hawaii,
Nineteen islands in the sea!
Long sandy beaches
Stretch as far as you can see.
I love Hawaii,
Where the dolphins like to play!
When you leave the plane,
They present you with a lei.
They dance the hula,
And the mountains are so green.
The waves are bigger here
Than any place I've ever been.
There are some live volcanoes.
You can see the lava flow.
Kilauea, it's a big one!
Boy, I hope it doesn't blow!
We're in Hawaii,
Nineteen islands in the sea!
Long sandy beaches
Stretch as far as you can see.

American Chef Idol

American Chef Idol is a fictional TV show seen in Muffy's daydream in "What's Cooking?". It features Ming Tsai portraying a more gruff nature of Simon Cowell, who criticized Muffy about her quiche. The second judge is far more encouraging. It is a parody of American Idol and also parodies the conventions of reality-cooking shows, particularly those hosted by Gordon Ramsay, known for his often harsh on-air personality, and also aired on FOX, the same network as American Idol.
