    Wait, shouldn't the babies be being voiced by real babies?!? The
    "Political Correctness" morons are going tobe complaiing about this.
    ;-)

    Rugrats was one of the better "modern" carton shows, but these new
    computer 3D animated versions look horrible and plasticky, :-(

    An all-new "Rugrats" CG-animated series is slated to premiere on
    streaming service Paramount Plus (née CBS All Access) in 2021,
    announced Nickelodeon at ViacomCBS' investor day.

    Set to reprise their roles are stars E.G. Daily (Tommy), Nancy
    Cartwright (Chuckie), Cheryl Chase (Angelica), Cree Summer (Susie)
    and Kath Soucie (Phil and Lil). Nickelodeon Animation Studio is
    producing the revival, which promises to follow the toddlers as
    "they explore the world and beyond from their pint-sized and wildly
    imaginative point-of-view."

    The original "Rugrats" series, which debuted in 1991 on Nickelodeon,
    ran for nine seasons across 13 years, earning four Daytime Emmys and
    six Kids' Choice Awards.

    "Rugrats is one of the most iconic cartoons recognized by fans around
    the globe, and this original version is one we are taking great care
    and pride in creating for a brand-new audience," said Ramsey Naito,
    president of Nickelodeon Animation. "Having the voice cast behind
    these special characters come together is one of the essential pieces
    to making the show recognizable and we can't wait to watch this
    talented group bring them to life again."

    The CG-animated revival is based on the original series created by
    Arlene Klasky, Gabor Csupo and Paul Germain. Eryk Casemiro and Kate
    Boutilier are executive producing with Dave Pressler and Casey
    Leonard on board as co-executive producers and Rachel Lipman as
    co-producer. Mollie Freilich, Nickelodeon's senior manager of current
    series animation, is overseeing the production.

    Absolutely.

    Too bad.

    Some of the originals were ... very interesting.

    And the version of /It's a Wonderful Life/ was ... awesome.

    Since Ida Mufferbids from The Price is Right appeared on the original, maybe her successor Prye Zufferbids can appear on this new version!
