All Grown Up! (2003–2008)
Too heavy on morals, Too light on originality

Warning: Spoilers
I never saw the original special that started it all. I think it would've been better had this series not been made.

Every episode I've seen stresses too heavy on the morals. Well it's a kid show, I suppose that's normal. But everything is recycled, and the main antagonists are those so-called cool kids that are nothing but assholes. "We say it's cool." That is so retarded! And that episode where Kimmy doesn't find out until she's like 12 or something that she's Japanese and wants to be more Japanese: #1 I don't think kids are that stupid and would know what ethnicity they are before they get too old #2 The moral of the episode seems to discourage having an interest in one's own true culture which really upsets me.

There's a desperate cry for work on writing and characters. Among all things Dil is a FULL clone copy of Carl from "As Told By Ginger" another unoriginal show, while the rest of the cast only bear some similarities to other characters in personality.

I'm not some freak who thought that this series was a bad idea from the start. I had hopes for it, but when I realized while watching how much of it has been done to death, I was outraged.

The show lacks fantasy and wonder which was what makes The Rugrats special, nothing like its spin off at all.
