Good fun
In all honesty the best times were the ninties. Parents now a days are really tightly wound about what's on a show. What happened to just letting kids watch things for entertainment? If I ever watched things for moral values or life lessons than I don't remember. And heck I'm going to college to be a teacher so I'd say I turned out ok. Rugrats is a fun show about being babies and growing up, Angelica is your typical bully/older cousin who always steals your candies. Parents, there are bullies out there everywhere, older siblings, the school yard bully all you really do is make them unaware if you keep holding their hands.

The quality of this show has really gone down with time.
I feel like they've redone a lot of the things I remember being on the show ten years ago. That's just lazy writing.

This show teaches / role models manipulation, intimidation, etc. = It's a "How To Bully" show
I'm a mediator and facilitator for domestic violence intervention programs meaning I typically work with people who have felonies and have destroyed their families as a result of behaviors like those Angelica and other kid bullies demonstrate throughout this show. It's amazing how well they portray it... I'd rather my kids not learn that thinking this way is an option... It would be different if they showed options on how to constructively handle these behaviors but unfortunately they do not.

If your kids are watching this and acting like little monsters...well...just think about it.

Unnecessary garbage
They spend so much time complaining and calling each other names on the show. My kids act and talk much better now that I don't allow that show on in our house

I can't stand this show!
I'm surpised and disappointed that CommonSense recommends this show. Angelica's behavior is just so bad. It may be ok to explain to older kids that her behavior is unacceptable but why on earth would I want my 5 yo to learn how to be mean and disrespectful?

lets see
I will admit something. You remember that episode where the babies colored all over the wall? Apparently, that message did not come through (that I shouldn't) and I colored a small ammount on my living room wall when I was 7. It's a very good show if you understand that it is just a show and totally exagerated scenarios. But if your kids are young, even though it's funny, maybe not...

Great for Talking Points
My daughter has watched the Rats since she was two. As a daycare kid, we were able to use the situations between the kids to talk about school issues (albeit at a 2 or 3 year old level). From an early age she understood Angelica has bad behavior but a good heart and was able to apply lessons from the show to her real life friendships. I wouldn't put a child alone in front of the show, but watching together RugRats is great fare for talking with your child.

Comercialism Kills
Well I used to love the show. Then the movie came and I liked that. Then the second and I liked that. Then the special and I didn't really like that. Then the special became a show (which is inaccurately portraying ages in my opinion) and I disliked that. The old episodes of Rugrats are good, but after Dil was added I liked it less. Kimi didn't add or take away anything tho.
