It is Nickelodeon’s third-longest-running animated series, behind SpongeBob SquarePants and The Fairly OddParents. The series is also notable for depicting observant Jewish families. Rugrats received numerous awards, including a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. A reboot of the series premiered on Paramount+ in 2021.

CURIOUS FACT SAMPLES:

The series Rugrats was created by the then-husband-and-wife duo of Gábor Csupó and Arlene Klasky, along with Paul Germain. The trio were also animating The Simpsons at the time and decided to create their own series after Nickelodeon announced that they were launching their own line of animated series.

The original pilot episode of Rugrats, titled "Tommy Pickles and the Great White Thing," was never actually aired. This pilot was eventually released on DVD by Paramount Home Entertainment in 2001.

The character of Angelica was based on a bully from Paul Germain’s childhood. Although Klasky initially disliked the character of Angelica, she eventually came to appreciate her role in the show.
