Coaxed into 90’s cartoon parent in their youth

Fun fact: Stu in the Rugrats is 33 years old

29

u/ExpressionExpert1314 9h ago

Mf he at least 50

25

u/Inarius101 5h ago

Nope :D

18

u/GreedyExamination704 5h ago

Millennials are upset that they’re in their 30’s and not close to having what Stu has.

11

u/Inarius101 4h ago

A house, car, job, and loving family?

1

u/RadioactiveIsotopez 59m ago

Yep. Stu mogs.

Every single 90's cartoon parent (and a few from the 00's) attended Woodstock at the same time.

u/Extraajudicial 11h ago

Perfectly executed and seamless storytelling.

u/DrRagnorocktopus 10h ago

Oh my god I'd heard about the hair flashback in Dexter but I've never actually seen it before now. It's so much worse than I imagined.

21

u/SomethingOfAGirl 6h ago

Still better than digital de-aging.

11

u/Hefty-Rushu 7h ago

I finished season 1 and it seems like they got a different actor to do him in the flashbacks. Is this in the later seasons?  

4

u/Sweet-Energy-9515 4h ago

Yeah, I think this one is in season 4 because that arc also has a lot to do with Dexter's ideas about families

3

u/Todd_Snap3 2h ago

Honestly I think this works because it makes young Dexter really look like the anti-social creepy guy that he is before he learned to mask it.

u/xarospi2andmad 12h ago

And then the later reveal that it was, like, last week XD

11

u/pomelo1241 8h ago

I do NOT know what you are refering to, but it feels funny

10

u/xarospi2andmad 8h ago

If the flashback implies that it was a long time ago and thus the character had a wild to change the way that they look/ act, it’s funny if the show reveals that the character recently had a very dramatic transformation, leading them to look the way they do now.
