I Rugrats da grandi

It is almost inevitable that when something good and entertaining is made in the entertainment biz, there's something that is made after it that serves some relation to it, but is a piece of garbage. Sadly, a great and entertaining show like Rugrats has suffered from this. I'm pretty old for Rugrats, but regardless of age, the show was still Nickelodeon's best animated show, and is definitely one of TV's greatest animated achievements. What has disgraced Rugrats? The spin-off piece of garbage that is `All Grown Up.'

All Grown Up has the same characters from the original Rugrats, but they are all grown up now, and in school. That right there already ruins the entire main idea of Rugrats. Rugrats was such a significant show because it depicted life through the eyes of toddlers, and every week would show the `adventures' they go on. That's what made it so original, the fact that they were babies, but now that they're all older, it isn't original anymore. It's just like all those other ridiculously awful shows on Nickelodeon.

What's even worse about the show is that all the characters now have all these problems involving popularity and all that other garbage, and again, that is something that furthers this travesty from the original Rugrats.

The animation in this isn't distinct like the original Rugrats. Instead, the backgrounds (buildings, houses) all look too generic and plain. The color and look of everything from characters to exteriors is too light, and worst of all, the drawings look too perfect, and really have no significance whatsoever. The original show's animation wasn't the best, but that was the beauty of it. The animation wasn't the best ever, and it looks like it was done that way on purpose. Back then, the characters and backgrounds look like they were actually hand drawn by people, and they weren't so plain.

I simply cant stand this vile. The fact that it's predecessor was RUGRATS, a great show, is ridiculous. If you want to make an animated show that displays problems in the lives of kids in school, call it something else, just don't relate it to Rugrats. Sitting through this, to put it best, is a rigorous task. It'll most likely last a looong time, seeing as how kids probably watch it.

Overall score: ½ out of 10.

I found watching this show would've loved for me to see Nickelodeon have these kids grow up and find themselves, but watching this later showed me they rushed the development into their preteen/teen years of confusion amongst them in a PG format and the stresses of parents as their kids get older. If you watched Rugrats as a kid you'll understand.

But what I wish was this show lasted longer because it made me feel as if they were growing up with me fictionally inside a cartoon universe. But I do understand good things come to an end, and this is how I loved the way they wrapped up Rugrats.

I'm a fan of the original rugrats, when All Grown Up came I was very excited, I think it's a nice show, but it isn't exactly what I was expecting from a rugrats spin-off.

The only bad side of this show is that the show killed the rugrats, Tommy isn't the leader anymore , at the beginning he was supposed to be an artist and later he was just randomly obsessed with girls, Susie just thinks on singing and college, Angelica became just a generic boring teenager, Chuckie from being a nice and caring baby became a self-centered person who is always complaining of how bad is life for him, Kimi gotta be the worst of all of them, she doesn't have a personality not even a trait to set her apart from the other rugrats, she's portrayed as a selfish, spoiled girl who seems to think that the world revolves around her, by far the most horrible character in the entire series, At the end we have Dil that unlike his countpart on rugrats, he has evoluted to become the best character in this show, portrayed as the weird, nice,smart ,caring kid who is always willing to help and trying new things other people wouldn't do,always ready for the action, and that challenging attitude of not caring what other people think of him.

I think it's a good show, but I wish it would have to deal less with teenage issues and more kid related issues, if this wasn't a rugrats spin-off it'd be a very good show, but with rugrats in its past, people expect more from it.

I like this show. It may seem dorky at first, but it actually makes a life for the so called RUGRATS.The show makes me happy, and makes me enjoy my teen life more! But my only flaw is that they are starting to use the dorky and annoying Rugrats music (1997-2001) that annoyed me after all these years. Otherwise the show makes me comfortable.I recommend that everyone watch this show. Teens Mostly!The show though gets annoying after a while with Angelica, who I hate!The show alternates from one teen having a problem, to another being weird.Hey, it's a typical Klasky/Csuopo cartoon with the animation and feel of most of their show which are excellent.The show is GREAT.

Rugrats: 9.5/10 All Grown Up: 9.8/10

I think "All Grown Up" was a creative idea, taking the "Rugrats" show in a new direction, making them all 10 years older. It was interesting to see how all the characters evolved.

Even though the guys are all had some personality changes, they're all pretty much the same as they always were and still friends.

The only downside is everyone (with the exception of Dil and Phil) is trying too hard to fit in, like most preteen/teen show. I would have liked to see more of them trying to go after their aspirations and pursue more hobbies or something, rather than trying really hard to make people like them.

Overall this was a good effort and had some funny material.
