All Grown Up!: Difference between revisions

Not to be confused with [[She's All Grown Up]], which is a trope.

 

It essentially takes the basic personalities of the characters and transplants them into a world with less fantastical adventures and more into typical [[Teen Comedy]] fare. Tommy is an assertive budding filmmaker but is slightly lower on the social totem pole, Chuckie is neurotic and awkward, Phil is into model building and Lil wants to be more feminine (both still find joy eating spaghetti with their hands), Dil is a bizarrely street smart [[Cloudcuckoolander|Cloud Cuckoo Lander]] and Angelica is trying to dissociate herself from them to fit in with the popular kids.

 

Compare ''[[Quack Pack]]'' for a similar update on a [[DuckTales|classic kids' cartoon show.]]

* [[The Ace]]: Tommy Pickles. Averted in some episodes as he was shown to be the worse cowboy and has a fear of water.

* [[Mythology Gag]]: Many references to ''[[Rugrats]]'' appear, with the obvious (entire episodes revolving around finding Reptar or Cynthia), to the more subtle (Tommy still keeps a toy screwdriver in his pants, albeit being more sensible to put it on a keychain in his pocket).

* [[Nice Jewish Boy]] - Invoked by Tommy, who tries to use this trope to impress a girl he likes.

* [[Non Indicative Title]]

* [[Noodle Incident]]: One episode has Lil threatening to blow the whistle on Phil doing "you know what". Subverted at the end of the episode {{spoiler|where we find out he spray-painted his skateboard on Betty's wedding dress}}.
