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.

This is a show about teenager-wannabees that are 10 years old. The first few episodes of this were all right and they were doing well with Nickelodeon and I enjoyed them, but the new ones have easily-solved plots and spastic drama from (guess who) Angelica and Susie. My little sister watches this and I can see her sometimes getting ticked off because of the stupid lines of the characters. I'm trying to make this show bad and I'm also trying to make a persuasive argument. I could relate this to Fairly Oddparents, which also has easy-to-solve plots and sappy lines. Nickelodeon is going down the tubes and if 3-year-olds are watching it daily, don't be surprised if they start blurting out phrases like, "Whatever!" and, "So yesterday, galfriend!" I admit that I'm exaggerating this show, but with the previous sappy shows of Nickelodeon backing me up, my point is pretty clear.

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.

This is far from being "Rugrats: The Next Generation." Instead, you can see palpable changes in the characters of the show from the baby-oriented original series to this one.

The plot lines have some refreshing changes in them. Coming along for the ride is a new Vice-Principal who was an ex-professional wrestler. He takes a keen interest in Dil, who is the breakout star of this show. In one episode, he counsels Dil (Wisely!) when the other kids use his genius for their profit.

Dil is the weird one who does weird things, but inside that brain is a true genius. Also amazing is the transformation of Tommy from fearless leader-baby to more a member of the group, complete with insecurities. Angelica is different too. She's softer and less bossy, but still a schemer. Her lispy friend Harold is a nice foil for her antics.

This is completely kid-safe. It's also fun for adults, too. Perhaps it's not in the same league as Spongebob, but it is great fun!

So on my 1-10 scale, I give it an 8.

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
