3/4
With an affectionate, slapstick wit, Rugrats creators Arlene Klasky, Gabor Csupo and Paul Germain display the sort of inventive attitude they previously brought to their work on The Simpsons and The Tracey Ullman Show. Go to Full Review Noel Holston Minneapolis Star Tribune 5d
Speaking as someone who once painted his mother's kitchen with Crisco, I would say the Rugrats writers know a little about child behavior. Go to Full Review Betsy Wallace Common Sense Media 4d
4/5
Adults can appreciate the way Rugrats gently pokes fun at neurotic parenting, as well as the inherent humor in trying to raise kids correctly. Go to Full Review Evan Levine Philadelphia Daily News 5d

Children will enjoy Rugrats because it's funny, and parents will enjoy it because it rings so true. Go to Full Review Valerie Helmbreck Gannett News Service 5d
What kids will love about this show is the Rugrats' purely childlike attitude about their world. There is really no malice in their exploration of the world around them. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
