Blogpost 1: Introduction to Rugrats

       When I was a little kid, I used to watched cartoons. Until now, I am already 16 years old, I still watch cartoons. What I like most about watching cartoons is that how they create such unique characters and how kids easily attach themselves to that characters and how it affects their personality and attitude.  One of my favorite cartoon show when I was a little kid is Rugrats.

        So, What is "Rugrats" all about? So here is an article by  Todd VanDerWerff entitled "Rugrats".

".... It was produced after the animation studio’s heads, Arlene Klasky and Gábor Csupó, heard Nickelodeon was looking for its own original animated series. Co-creator Paul Germain created the characters, while Klasky and Csupó handled the animation end, and the six-and-a-half minute pilot introduces the world of the characters fairly intact. Not every character is here—the villainous Angelica, perhaps the series’ most famous character, doesn’t appear at all—but the show’s sensibility and toddler-like point of view are present immediately, as hero Tommy Pickles attempts to figure out what the strange white object he’s spied in the bathroom is. Even the Mark Mothersbaugh-composed theme song is present."

        For more ideas about "Rugrats", here is a website "rugrats.wikia.com" that will lead you to the list of the characters in the show.

"Despite his cuteness, Chuckie is pessimistic and scares easily, and at the first suggestion that he and the other babies should do something or go somewhere, he will always say, "Maybe this isn't such a good idea." .."

Phil

"Phil and Lil are adorable twins who are alike in almost every possible way, and are even dressed to match: both wear pink with black-pinstripe shirts and turquoise outfits (Phil's being a shirt and Lil's being overalls) with a handkerchief on the left side and a duck on the right, and both have a small amount of brown hair on top of their oddly-shaped heads."
