Not really. There would also be crowded, cramped rides, horrible smells, and drunken homeless people to deal with. Why didn't Jerry Lewis narrate any more Little Rascals movies after RASCAL DAZZLE? Because he was distracted over his cousin Jimmy, who got caught in that watching a prostitute have sex scand...oops! WRONG JERRY! Never mind!
In what way did the Rascals fit in with the wrong Jerry!

"I'm Dating My Elementary School Teacher!"
Why didn't Jerry Lewis hire Spanky to run his telethon?

Spanky charged "hundreds and thousands of dollars an hour," and it was a bit too rich for Mr. Levitch's tastes, n-HAH!!
Would a modern-day remake of "Mike Fright" feature the Intergalactic Alicia Silverstone Atomic Submarine Band (in person)?

Of course not. Alicia Silverstone would charge too much to appear in person.
Would a modern remake of 'Mama's Little Pirate' feature a Sasquatch instead of a mean giant?

Better yet, it would feature 7'0" Joel Embiid, who's actually a good guy, but I guess they could get him to act scary, maybe by making the kids try to get layups past him.
Were there in fact traveling novelty/fireworks salesmen in that era, and, if so, how come Arthur Miller didn't write a play about them? ("Otto Fries was liked, but not well-liked...")

Arthur Miller simply couldn't bring himself to write a play about a Fireworks Salesman whose name was pronounced "Auto Freeze." Why he simply didn't go with an alternatively named muse was never documented, but suffice to say the whole thing diffused.
What'd the Cabin Kids say?

“We’ve got Cabin Fever!”
Which of the kids was Miss Crabtree’s favorite?

The ones who weren't constantly hitting on her.
Speakin' as one perfessional to another, how should I take care of my voice?

Do what Froggy - and 80% of '30s and '40s adults do - smoke. (coughs)
So did Alfalfa follow that advice?

I think he gargled with drain cleaner, though it was well known even then that onions were good for your voice and lemons for your freckles, or perhaps vice versa. And of course anything from strep throat to pneumonic plague could be cured by *****castor oil*****, whatever the hell THAT was.
Couldn't the famous chase scenes from "The French Connection" and "Carlito's Way" have been improved by intercutting Stymie evading Mickey Daniels at full undercrank speed, at the amusement park?

Only if the Benny Hill theme was added on top of it.
Hey, we all remember (well, some of us do) Pansy, the little girl Miss Crabtree spoke to in READIN' AND WRITIN'. What was her father up to before doing 20 years?

Counterfeiting $17 bills with pictures of Rutherford B. Hayes on them. He wasn't too bright.
Why did all middle-aged upscale women in Rascals shorts look like even stouter Margaret Dumonts? Was Groucho hanging around ready to tell them that if he held them any closer, he'd be behind them? And am I nuts, or have middle-aged women come to look a lot darned better in the intervening 80-odd years?

Now which question do you want me to answer first, Mister Laria?

LOL. Yes, he left me money, or rather doubloons, which were taken from the giant in "Mama's Little Pirate" after the short was shot and wrapped.
What exactly is so bad about getting a frog and a duck as birthday presents, and did all of this really warrant the pained plea to "Mama?"

One was Michigan J. Frog and the other was Daffy Duck (when his name still made sense), so absolutely. “Hello, my baby, hello, my honey...” “Woo-hoo! Woo-hoo! Woo-hoo!” “Mama, the little creatures are dancing again!”
We all know how Mary Ann would react to being called someone’s “woman,” but how would Janet Burston react?
