Did Mary's sister and Sheldon get married after the end of "Thundering Fleas"? Yes, and they went on to have two kids, ironically named Garfield and Magnolia. And yep, one would always get under the other's skin. Why did the Woodchucks club break up?

The Woodchuck Club's rivalry with the He-Men Woman Haters Club simply became way too intense for either of them to survive. Both Clubs were absorbed by Janet's new International Dolly Society.
Why was Shakespeare always shivering, and what did that have to do with the Gang, exactly?

He forgot his long underwear. At least that was the answer Bonedust gave the Gang.
The Mischief Makers TV series that ran narrated Our Gang silents liked to use the phrase "Skeedly, skeedly!" quite a bit. What exactly does "Skeedly, skeedly!" mean?

"We didn't pay the scriptwriter enough for better dialogue!"
What other alternate name was used for the early 'Our Gang' reissues? (Think "Skeedly, skeedly!")

The All-New, Original Mickey McGuire Power-Hour. Or Those darn Kids.

Nope, nor a carpetbagger, a Stalwart, or a Mugwump. And my Homer is not a Communist. He may be a liar, a pig, an idiot, a Communist...but he is NOT a porn star." (H/T: Simpsons) Why did Alfalfa recite (or attempt to recite) a poem about the Crimean War? Surely WWI produced some better/more topical poetry... no Siegfried Sassoon?

Alfalfa was part Crimean on Spanky's side. Porky's side was more Balkan.
Who was this Siegfried Sassoon, and did he have any relation to Gordon Person or Flash Tarzan?

Sephardic Jewish hair stylist, whose actual relationships were to Spiderpig, and to Captain Klutz of MAD Magazine/Don Martin fame.
In the Swahili, Turkish and Finnish versions of the Rascals, doesn't the might-choke-Artie gag kinda... lose something?

Nah. The Roach Studios writers were all multi-cultural and wrote bad puns that would work in any language.
Hey! Y'got fries to go with that shake?

No, all I have to eat tonight is hash. I’m still crying over it.
Why didn’t Philip Hurlic stick around?

He changed his name to Norman Wilton Chamberlain, grew a lot, scored 100 points in a single NBA game, and generally found the NBA more fun than making uncredited appearances in classic films.
Did Ma and Pa Kibrick take a close look at the two boys they produced at some point, and decide jointly they'd inflicted enough funny-lookin' on the world?

No, but I did hear of a rumor that "Little Leonard" (Well, no longer so little!) auditioned for the title character in DUMBO, but then Disney decided to go animated with it, instead. What was the Gang all crowing about?

The fact that it was taking MGM so long to finally cancel their series so they could all move on with their lives.

The blood of a virgin ritually slaughtered under the Crescent moon. Unfortunately, Petie rescued him before he could be sacrificed.
What would have happened if the ceremony had taken place?

It would still be shut down and postponed at the last second, almost as though through divine intervention, because the eclipse hadn't totalized yet.
What degree of disappointment (if any!) did you experience when you finally bought Japanese/Chinese handcuffs at a novelty store and learned they couldn't trap much of anything?
