*** In "Lord of the Nerds", Lawson knows about how "Tiny Cedric" was sent to room 51, and the way he talks to him at the end seems to imply that he knew Cedric personally, which simply wouldn't be possible if Lawson was a recent transfer

** There are a few details in the series that don't line up with this theory:
*** If Lawson transferred in, that would mean he would have taken the title of "new kid" from Gus; but Gus doesn't "officially" lose that title until the titular "Yope from Norway" arrives, and Lawson appears in said episode.

The kids at 98th Street are doppelgangers of the kids at 3rd Street. In "Dance Lessons," Spinelli and Mikey's dance class includes doppelgangers of the Ashleys names the Megans, who probably go to 98th Street. (See FridgeBrilliance.) Since "Ashley" is Spinelli's first name, then Rigalli, her 98th Street counterpart, is probably named "Megan." She might even have gone through an experience similar to the episode "First Name Ashley" at some point, where the Megans temporarily forced her to join their club.

[[WMG: Gordy's full name is Fred Gordon.]]
This explains the SeriesContinuityError of his name being Freddy in "Wild Child." His usual nickname is based on his last name.

Both are cheerful, mild-mannered workers at a facility for young people, and both are played by John Astin. After being disillusioned by his miserable failure to ease the tensions between the Jets and the Sharks, Hank left New York and gave up his career as a social director. He still wanted to help young people in some way, though, which was why he eventually became a school janitor. As for why he's quieter and less misguidedly perky than his younger self, well, that's a combination of age and disillusionment.

Both are cheerful, mild-mannered workers at a facility for young people, and both are played by John Astin.Creator/JohnAstin. The characters' ages seem to line up too: a young man in the late 1950s, and a man just below retirement age (not too old to work, but old enough to date Miss Finster) in the late 1990s. After being disillusioned by his miserable failure to ease the tensions between the Jets and the Sharks, Hank left New York and gave up his career as a social director. His guilt over failing to prevent the deaths of Riff, Bernardo, and Tony made him resolve never to work with teenagers again. He still wanted to help young people in some way, though, which was why he eventually became a an elementary school janitor. As for why he's quieter and less misguidedly nerdy and perky than his younger self, well, that's a combination of age and disillusionment.

Even though their only ShipTease in the series is with girls, they might realize they're gay or bi when they grow up. Just look at "Parents Night" and the way Mikey's parents parallel Mikey and Gus in "The New Kid." Mr. Blumberg, who is small, blond, and wears glasses, breaks down sobbing "It's so beautiful!" in response to Mikey's poetry-reciting, just like Gus did when the gang first treated him as a friend, and Mrs. Blumberg, who like Mikey is a GentleGiant, comforts him, saying "There, there, little fella," just like Mikey said "There, there, little guy" to Gus. Does mirroring the start of Mikey and Gus's friendship with a HappilyMarried couple's interaction foreshadow something about the boys' future?
