Criticism...
[edit]The criticism section is totally off base. First of all "twisting characters personalities too far"? And then the example cited is Susie as a baby had a different life goal from Suzie as a teenager? Of course she does! People change their life goals hundreds of times in their lifetime. Not to mention the fact that almost no one remembers their life as a baby, so she probably doesn't remember her original goal was to be a doctor. I for one can't rememember anything from before I was 5.
Next off the social themes are spot on. That's exactly how kids are these days. And then once again, the example cited is totally off base. Tommy getting his first kiss is not unusual for his age group (and being 10/11 somehow make him "underage"? I've got news for you, there's no set age for your first kiss). Kids have their first kiss on average, around the age of 11-ish (give or take). And 13 year olds have their own cell phones, piercings, and talk about sex and whatnot on a regular basis. This is how kids are these days, you don't have to like it, but it's a fact of life.
Not to mention the fact that this show isn't just aimed at kids, it's also aimed at the people who grew up with Rugrats, a show that was on for (give or take) 13 years. So if you were 1 when you started watching the Rugrats series, and you grew up as a fan, you're just the right age to appreciate the show now. --Venomaru 22:06, 13 May 2006 (UTC)
I still think the show is premoting a liberal lifestyle among children. Familyguyfan1990 June 9 2006
Liberal?! What do you think kids in middle school do and talk about? Dolls? cooking? They talk about all the things he said and is in no way liberal, all pre-teens and teen tv shows on Nickelodeon and Disney promote very CONSERVATIVE lifesyles for kids.
It doesn't need a a criticism section because they're mainly biased and opinon on the show. Plus the they're not even in high school. The show do aim to kid 9 to 10. I case you'll haven't notice that the Doug have gotten his first kiss and he was still was 11 ot 12.(mich (talk) 00:13, 7 June 2009 (UTC))
New Characters
[edit]Should Harold be on the list of new characters? I know he was in at least 1 episode of Rugrats(where Angelica has a playdate with him and makes him her assistant). TJ Spyke 23:56, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
Criticism again
[edit]Regardless of the merits of the criticism section, it is entirely unreferenced, and therefore could well be original research. Unless someone can supply notable analytical sources for these criticisms, the section needs to be removed. Brendan Moody 17:38, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
Airings
[edit]I have tagged the "Airings" section as a disputed section, as I feel the info is suspect. If someone can give a source, please do. Otherwise, this section should be changed or deleted. There are some people at the Nickdisk board ([1]) who are actually taking this as gospel, and unless there is tangible proof, it should be changed or gone. -- azumanga 02:05, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
- Seconded. Somebody should place a 'citation needed' warning by the paragraph indicating that the show will return, because I have seen no official sources commenting on the matter.
Possible Return Theory
[edit]The infobox on this site said there were 18 un-aired episodes in the U.S. Nickelodeon could air the 18 episodes as a 4th season!! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 216.93.96.105 (talk) 23:21, 1 May 2007 (UTC).
Unaired Eps Airing
[edit]I'm surprised no one has caught this: Nick's schedule is full of episodes unaired in the US every weekday starting next week at 6:30AM. 66.31.209.239 04:49, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
A source that could be used: Jerry Beck's Not Just Cartoons: Nicktoons!
[edit]I found a book in the bookstore called Not Just Cartoons: Nicktoons! by Jerry Beck. I'm not going to buy it and join the project, but I will ask the other members to get the book so that they can add real world information about various fictional characters.
This makes the creation of separate articles for *many* fictional characters feasible. Having information about the development of the character will make the articles satisfy Wikipedia:Notability (fiction) WhisperToMe (talk) 20:49, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
Premise?
[edit]The premise sounds less like an encyclopedia and more like it's trying to advertise the programme. Was this copied and pasted from somewhere? I think someone should rewrite this (I would but I don't watch the show).--Moozipan Cheese (talk) 19:58, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
- Yes from the Nick website. Its very hard to make a premise for this show because its a spin-off. So i thought the best thing to do would be to copy and paste one from the offical website. If its ok with everyone, I'll write a proper one this week and put it on. TheProf07 (talk) 20:57, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
Bringing Back
[edit]Are clames that there will be new episodes comming in june true, or are these just baseless rumers?--J intela (talk) 08:20, 6 March 2011 (UTC)
Proposed merge with All Growed Up
[edit]The one-off special led to the series, and much of their development sections overlap. Coin945 (talk) 04:29, 31 December 2018 (UTC)
Proposed merge with All Grown Up!: Express Yourself
[edit]Doesn't have a lot of sources to back it up. Content would be better served in the series article. Coin945 (talk) 05:01, 31 December 2018 (UTC)
I agree with you. I think the article should be redirected or put in the series page. Arthurfan828 (talk) 22:34, 13 August 2019 (UTC)
Proposed merge with Rugrats: All Growed-Up (video game)
[edit]Doesn't have a lot of sources to back it up. Content would be better served in the series article. Coin945 (talk) 05:03, 31 December 2018 (UTC)
- Except that the video game was released two years before this series. I suggest that a better target for the game is All Growed Up. Klbrain (talk) 06:37, 16 January 2020 (UTC)
Merger complete. Klbrain (talk) 10:17, 10 April 2020 (UTC)
Needs to be edited for organization and excessive detail
[edit]I completed a copyedit for grammar, style, spelling, and some clarity.
To me, the article remains excessively detailed and in need of reorganization. Robertnola (talk) 15:27, 10 January 2019 (UTC)
Character ages are wrong in article
[edit]As was pointed out years ago on this talk page but seemingly not acted upon, the ages stated for the characters in the article are not correct. Dil is 9 in the All Grown Up series (as directly stated by Tommy in the episode "Rats Race"). Tommy is 10 (as stated by himself in "It's Cupid, Stupid"). Phil directly refers to Chuckie as an 11 year old (also in "It's Cupid, Stupid"). Phil and Lil are 10 until the season 4 episode "Separate But Equal" in which they turn 11. Susie is 12 for most of the run, as often pointed out by Angelica, but in "Wouldn't It Be Nice" she self describes as 13 herself, having had an offscreen birthday. 2A02:C7F:384A:8E00:C8B:2D48:6866:2FD7 (talk) 13:10, 18 October 2020 (UTC)
- The article does not give specific ages for the characters. c87d98b10 13:38, 17 August 2021 (UTC)
