I'm a big fan of the original Rugrats and this show is also great. I really liked the "All Growed Up" special from the original show and I liked the idea of the babies becoming teenagers. The characters haven't really changed that much since "Rugrats", except with a few additions like Tommy (who's still the leader of the group) wanting to be a movie director which I guess is a career he's decided on, but I guess he's had 10 years to think about it. Angelica is definitely nicer than she was in "Rugrats" and I honestly like her better that way, she's much more tolerable and it's a breath of fresh air to see her do more nice things. Phil and Lil are also pretty entertaining and have some good episodes centered on them. Dil of course is my favorite character and I think we can all agree that he's the best character from the show! He's weird, yes, but that's what makes him so unique from the rest of the characters, he's the most entertaining of the lot but most importantly: He actually has a purpose in the show! Where in the original show as a baby he didn't really participate much and that's one of the reasons why I like this show as he's actually involved in the episodes. The episodes themselves are pretty compelling, they're more teenager oriented which is suitable for the target audience and it does have some good morals. The animation looks great and the backgrounds are very well done. Overall, this is an excellent spin- off that doesn't disappoint!

Okay so my daughter Maddie has become obsessed with Oobi. Its the first thing she asks for when she wakes up. A few days ago when we were at my moms house, Maddie was pretending that her hands were Oobi and speaking in Oobi-speak like they do. Ive been watching her and she is starting to "do Oobi" a lot....like all the time. In a way I see it as good bc its pretend play, and the show is so much more tolerable than other things for the same age group. She got two straws for her cup yesterday so that she could drink out of one and Oobi out of the other!
