If you can get past the art style it's actually a surprisingly fun show, it's neat that they changed locations so much and actually utilized them to make unique plots for the episodes. Nigel's the GOAT of course.

I feel like Debby is severely underrated. She basically has the life forced on her.

My only exposure to it was seeing the crossover movie they did with the Rugrats when I was REALLY young. But I remember liking it.

The movie is better than all 3 Rugrats movies.
Okay, maybe except Paris, but it's at least equal. I hated this show as a kid but now I actually love it.

I never could, always changed channels whenever a show by this studio came on. Fucking rancid artstyle.

I remember hating Eliza, when I was a kid. Donnie cool, but still Eliza and the Darwin were pretty bad.

I went to a Evangelical elementary school and a classmate did a presentation citing the chimp, Darwin as an exhibit of Evolution brainwashing society.

Looking back I think the show is horrible and the only likable character is Debbie. Think about it...

Nigel and his Shitty Wife Whose Name I Forget - These asshole take their underaged daughters all over the world where actual wildlife can KILL them. Sure they do this because its their job to film nature documentaries but they could easily let their daughters be cared for by other family members as we know they have extended family. Roaming all over the world is legit dangerous look at what happened to Donnie's mother and father they were MURDERED. This was in a Nickelodeon cartoon. Donnie's family was similar they worked with wilderness and got caught by psychotic poachers and were killed. This is the kind of danger Nigel and his Shitty Wife put Debbie and Eliza to endure and if not that then they could be killed by a bear or poison snake or something. I hate these two irresponsible cunts.

Speaking of irresponsible why does Nigel and his Shitty Wife allow a chimpanzee to stay with the family? The feral child is dangerous enough but a chimpanzee? They kill humans habitually. So that's another horrible thing. Doesn't matter if the chimpanzee is nice because we understand him but no parents worth their salt would keep such a wild animal as a pet. Really hate Nigel and his Shitty Wife.

Eliza is a bitch. She has a bias in that she doesn't see dangerous animals as dangerous because she can speak to them so she calls Debbie ignorant. Realistically speaking Eliza is would have gotten killed by a wild animal because even if she can speak to them a wild animal will still have instincts to kill anything that seems like prey and this happened to Eliza in one episode where she rescued a leopard and the leopard actually went "I don't care if you saved me now I'm going to kill you and eat you!" This would be happening to Eliza ALL the time. Not just a one time affair. So seeing Eliza acting arrogant about her cool lifestyle just makes her annoying.

Debbie is the only character who is humane and realizes how lousy her life is. Felt sorry for her. She has no friends. She can't do much in the way of hobbies. Even if she had a smart phone her parents go to places where there would be no wifi signal so that's useless. And wild animals habitually want to kill her. Debbie's life is awful.

Darwin was annoying because he was the emasculated effeminate male character. Seriously in one episode they show Eliza trying to befriend chimpanzees and Darwin explains to Eliza his survival strategy for interacting with chimpanzees which was to be submissive and generally behave as inoffensive because Darwin is not aggressive and combative like the other members of his species.

Well something Debbie has is real world experience. And I actually mean the world. I don't know what episode it is exactly she has a college interview. She comes in like the movie the office. At first the interviewer seems like he's ready to write her pff but Debbie just starts talking about Africa or something. But like actually talking about as oppose to someone who read about from a book.

I remember that episode, its the one with Debbit getting a chance to go to a special school where she can have a normal life with friends. But of course the episode ends with Debbie being forced to feel sad about separating from her family so she agrees to return to the life she hates. I brutally hate that episode. Debbie deserved a good safe life in civilization.

Doesn't help that Eliza goes back to insulting Debbie in follow up episodes and such.

What a little shit. I haven't eatch this show since it was out, but I think if I had to rewatch I'd get pissed off listening to Eliza talk shit to her sister. Fucking little goblin.

Yeah Eliza is shit. Even the finale which is the movie had Debbie learn that Eliza can speak to animals. The movie ends with Eliza gaining her ability to speak to animals yet again but lies to Debbie that if Debbie ever spills the beans she will suffer misfortune and be cursed. Basically psychologically tormenting Debbie is the final display of Sisterly Affection.
