Line 6:
** In-universe example: the episode when the adults took down Chuckie's crib and replaced it with a bed. The first night Chuckie sleeps on the bed, a monster from under the bed keeps talking to him and telling him that he's going to eat him (not even Tommy heard the voice when he slept over the next night). When Chuckie first investigates, he's frightened, thinking he actually spotted a monster reaching at him, and Chuckie jumps right back into bed, frightened. But as it turns out, the monster was actually [Chuckie's dad] Chaz's sweater with one sleeve poking out, and the darkness concealed the cooler colors, making the sweater look threatening.
* [[Base Breaker]]: Susie. Some adore her, some see her as the worst case of [[Positive Discrimination]] ''ever''.
* [[BigNon LippedSequitur Alligator MomentScene]]: "This World is Something New to Me" in the first movie.
* [[Creator's Pet]]: Baby Dil. As soon as he was added, potty humor was [[Up to Eleven|cranked up.]]
** What about Taffy? She was a babysitter introduced late in the series who everybody on the show loved, but almost everybody watching it hated. She mainly existed so that [[Amanda Bynes]] could have another Nickelodeon show to be on.
Line 16:
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yhsceutjy5I "You're a friend to me. I'm a friend to you. When we have each other, there's nothing we can't do...]
** ''All'' the songs from "Reptar On Ice".
* [[Ensemble Darkhorse]]: Of the babies themselves, Chuckie and Angelica are by far the most popular--inpopular—in fact, Angelica was the only one of the Rugrats to make it into TV Guide's 50 Greatest Cartoon Characters countdown. Her father Drew is one as well in recent years, thanks to [[Barney Bunch]] videos.
** [[Show Within a Show|Reptar]] has more fans on facebook then ''Rugrats'' itself does.
* [[Fanon Discontinuity]]: When the series ended depends on who you ask. Before the first movie? After? Before the second? After? After the first series? And even the people who like [[All Grown Up!]] don't like to mention the third movie.
Line 45:
* [[Most Wonderful Sound (Sugar Wiki)|Most Wonderful Sound]]: The Pickles Household's doorbell buzz.
* [[Poison Oak Epileptic Trees]]: Pertaining to Tommy's maternal grandparents, Boris and Minka: {{spoiler|They're holocaust survivors.}}
* [[The Problem with Licensed Games]]: ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20120122131045/http://gameboy.ign.com/articles/162/162092p1.html Rugrats: Time Travelers]'' for the [[Game Boy Color]].
** Rugrats: Scavenger Hunt for the N64 could count as well, for being a Mario Party rip-off with none of the exciting stuff that Mario Party had and instead, had a unnecessary life system based on cookies, the ability to get cards that were pretty much pointless, and overall, got boring really quickly. See [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3CHTN9DALbU here] for a Let's Play on the game by two guys that grew up with the series.
* [[Purity Sue]]: Susie's mother Lucy takes the cake with this one. A successful doctor, she benefits from [[Positive Discrimination]] and [[Women Are Wiser]] as episodes show her to be an incredibly gifted artist and chef who has studied in '''France'''. ''[[All Grown Up!]]'' takes this even further and reveals she was a successful blues singer at age 18.
* [[Rescued Fromfrom the Scrappy Heap]]: There are those whom found Dil to be a lot more likable in [[All Grown Up!]] (in which even certain people whom did not like the show would agree to that). This is because while, in the original, he never really ''had'' a personality, in the sequel series, he became a weird, conspiracy-and-alien obsessed guy who just happens to like being an oddball.
* [[The Scrappy]]: Kimi to some of the fanbase.
** Dil also was not seen favorably by a lot of fans. Mostly because Dil was a baby that couldn't do anything, in a series where all the other infants walked around and could talk. Another character that failed to get much love from the fans was Taffy, [[Creator's Pet|the generously hyped up character]] introduced for multiple episodes and then vanishing.
