Rugrats snuck in some touching moments

Rugrats is a really strong depiction of realistic family dynamics. Lots of interesting stuff in the background. Also one of the best representations of a modern American Jewish family on television, I grew up in a mixed-faith situation as well and the Pickles felt incredibly relatable.

He’s a newborn but look at Didi's waist. No fucking way.

Man totally didn't remember this episode.

Edit: It's from the episode Mother's Day. I do remember the episode, but not this detail. Maybe because the main focus was on Chuckie or I was too young to understand how serious Tommy's situation was.

All I remember is the one where they are crawling around some shitty Route 66 diner and service station unsupervised while Stu pores over the entire menu and then eventually decides on, of all things, the fucking Patty Melt.

It's worth a revisit just to hear all the jokes that went over your head.

His mom is also stacked, good goddamn!

Where is there any indication that he was premature?

I almost remembered them feelings like as if I was a little kid again

The Rugrats Movie had no right being such a masterpiece. Rugrats in Paris wasn't far behind.

This is the woke DEI agenda fascists want you to be afraid of (though I think they called it "political correctness" in those days)
