The Rugrats

#1

Post by Valigarmander » Sun Sep 14, 2008 2:12 am

You ever look back on an old show, and realize how it's probably the only cartoon in your own personal history to have stood the test of time? :(

Seriously. Rugrats was brilliant. At least before all that Dill and All Grown Up bullcrap.

I hated that show when I saw it years ago. That hasn't changed.


Then again, I'm not a big fan of cartoons in general.

Is it just me or did the creators try to use Chucky as a catch all for the minority? If I recall right he was: left handed, a red head, wore glasses,and had an outie bellie button.

The best part of the Rugrats was Peter Chung's involvement. ;)

But seriously, I used to love the show when I was younger. All Grown Up is awful, though.
Nonsense, I have not yet begun to defile myself.

Rugrats...I can't stand American cartoons that aren't for adult audiences now that I am in that audience...but I did watch Rugrats religiously as a kid. I can still remember them all too.

Since '04? You must be very young, since it takes an old person like me to realize things started going downhill since they ended Animaniacs in 1998.

I'd be inclined to say around 2003, because at least until then Cartoon Network had some decent stuff. When they dropped Johnny, Cow and Chicken and all that, they began to lose it.

^ In my opinion, Cow & Chicken was the start of the "exhibit a character's bare ass as a punchline" tradition of cartoons.

Not really a good thing.
