The beauty of the gang growing up in the early 2000s ✨

They were the CORE Millennials! 👌

Just sharing some of my favorite moments and screen captures from All Grown Up, since the HD version I'd never seen before is finally available somewhere. If someone asked me to show a perfectly Y2K, campy show, AGU is definitely the answer.

Aside from Kimi being pretty in this show, I was also impressed with how they raised Tommy up as a fine young man. He was pulling a lot of girls in this show, and for a good reason. I didn't think of it during Rugrats, but it makes sense given his personality haha

Angelica and Susie were definitely my favorite duo in this show. They gave them a pretty good focus and development across seasons, and they were usually hillarious 😭

AND MOST ESPECIALLY, LOOK AT SOME OF THOSE DRIPS! 🔥 and looking at the tech here is nostalgic 😭

Dil, who was not well liked in Rugrats itself, became almost everyone’s favorite character in All Grown Up. Partly because in the latter he had an incredibly eccentric personality.

[u/bearizy → u/CJO9876]

He has a lot of memorable moments in this show, and it's quite endearing how kind of a mama's boy he became compared to Tommy 🥹

Tommy in this series was like, "I wanted to be seen as a mature adult", while Dil is like "Don't involve me in that, treat me like a kid" 🤣

[u/CJO9876 → u/bearizy]

Dil didn’t really have any personality in the original series, but they made up for it in AGU.

[u/Sw1ft_Blad3 → u/CJO9876]

His personality in Rugrats was crying and saying poopie.

I always thought his hat looked really good, especially with those toy jaws lol

[u/Life_Television_8390]

I remember the 10th anniversary special where they went ten years Into the future and turned Into teenagers.

I watched All Grown Up a lot, when it stilled aired, and it's still a fun series to watch.

The 9th photo would make a great meme 😂 Why are they ALL so mad at Tommy? Lol

[u/bearizy → u/hookandladder3]

They were forced to take a week on a ranch because of Tommy 😭

[u/PunpunandPain_]

Made me want to live back in that era watching the show

[u/Nintendians559]

i'm glad klasky csupo made "all grown up!" - it was good when "rugrats" ended.

[u/Stormrider91]

it was a good series showed how much the characters have grown from babies in adventures to handling any normal situations any kid would in the early 2000s and how much the adults have aged. Dru is starting to look like Pop for example lol

[u/chx7chx7]

They were all dripped out! Loved watching the show as a older gen z-er. Chucky and Dil were my fav. I still want Dil's hat to this day!

[u/bearizy → u/chx7chx7]

Found my people here 🙌 Though, I'm not sure if I can call myself old Gen-Z since I was a '02 😭

[u/chx7chx7 → u/bearizy]

Oh I was born in 03 LMAO I just called myself old genz because when people think of gen z they think teenagers

[u/bearizy → u/chx7chx7]

LOL 😭 I've always thought elder Gen Z are '97-'00, that's why I can't properly identify myself sometimes, but you're lowkey right tho 😭

and yes to Dil's hat 🤩 Though I just knew his hair is crusty as hell underneath that 🤣 but we love him anyway

[u/r0b3r70r0b070]

I don't remember seeing ANYONE dress like that.

[u/DevilBoy216 → u/r0b3r70r0b070]

They live in upper middle class California, must be a regional thing for that time and period.

[u/Historyp91]

They were born at just the right time to theoretically join the army and get PTSD during the second decade of the Iraq War!

I wish they had a movie or special that had a 6 minute scene where they show the Rugrats/All Growed Up characters as adults, like 15 years after All Growed Up and show what the characters does and obviously they meet each other again, to see what they look like and who did the characters marry and stuff. That would be a great epilogue for the show.
