>Season one of the Rugrats had an episode where Tommy gets kidnapped by thugs who get ejected from the windshield of their car after crashing their car
This was supposed to be a toddler/kids show (at least that's what it turned into). Shit was just different back then.

Gonna have to really emphasize this part, Rugrats had a lot of humor early on that was clearly aimed more at adults.

People no longer being certain of what Rugrats' original intended demographic was (note: it was the same demographic as the rest of the Nicktoons) is why we're never going to get a decent revival of it.

OH MY GOD IS THAT EVEN THE SMALLEST DEGREE OF CONFLICT AND TENSION! IN A TV SHOW!! Good god. How do you people function. It's not like they were torn to bloody shreds laying broken and malformed.

Have you seen a later era Rugrats episode or any modern Nickelodeon show though, you troglodyte? This isn't an analysis that came out of nowhere. Holy shit some of you are retarded.

There's an episode of Rocko's modern life where a mailman threatens to go postal on a subway while Rocko's car is getting prison raped

Season one was interesting. It had a lot of solo Tommy episodes and a couple of episodes with just Tommy and the twins.

indeed. This dialogue and action driven adventure show was NOT for toddlers who just like repetition and bright colors.

Agreed. Stuff like that was played for laughs. Pic-related, on the other hand...

Peter Chung actually worked on character designs for the show and intentionally made the babies look weird.
