SNL and Ghostbusters star Kate McKinnon has been cast as the voice of Ms. Frizzle in Netflix's upcoming series Magic School Bus Rides Again. McKinnon is the perfect actress to take on this character. Hell, she's so perfect it makes me wish she were playing a live-action version of the character.

According to THR, the series will feature "a modernized Ms. Frizzle and her class along with an inventive high-tech bus. The series will also highlight the latest tech innovations such as robotics, wearables, and camera technology to -- like in the original series -- encourage children's interest in science."

This sounds like it will be a fun series for kids to watch. The voice of Ms. Frizzle in the original series was provided by Lily Tomlin. I never really watched the original series, but I have read many of the books written by Joanna Cole because of my kids.

The series reboot has been in development since 2014, and it will consist of 26 half-hour episodes.
