History DethroningMoment / Rugrats

** Tropers/SupremeX15: Looking back on this episode, Stu's treatment here definitely rubbed me the wrong way. While the rest of was fun for a while, it went down hill when Drew just locks Stu out of the house, leaving his brother to get arrested and laughed by two {{Jerkass}} cops & a waitress, and all because Drew was petty asshole [[KarmaHoudini who got away with treating his brother like crap]], and no one seemed to realize Stu was missing. I never really liked Drew, and now I remember why. It's because of this episode's ending. I now see where Angelica's brattiness comes from.

** Tropers/JadeEyes1: Not only that, but Drew, the cops, and the waitress [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking were all wrong]]: Tarzan is the King of the African jungle (i.e. what most people think of when they think of "the jungle"); King Kong is only the King of Skull Island. Anyone who has even a basic knowledge of those characters should know that. Not only does Stu go through a HumiliationConga, but he does so at the hands of a people who are too dumb to know what they're talking about -- and, in the case of Drew, too petty and stubborn to admit when they could be wrong.

* Tropers/CJCroen1393: "Wash-Dry Story" randomly turns into a ''Theatre/{{WestSideStory}}'' parody for no good reason. All of the songs (besides "Cynthia", which was actually [[SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments kind of sweet]]) were completely random, sounded awful and filled with {{Painful Rhyme}}s. It was full of plot holes (how exactly did Angelica know they were all singing when she was at home and not at the laundromat?), the [=McNulty=] boys were [[{{Flanderization}} flanderized horribly]] and the plot was just nonexistent, and not in a good way. Overall just a terribly dull episode.

** Kishou: Personally I felt the guy in the Goober suit was a DesignatedVillain for the episode. I get Goober was meant to be a joke and parody on [[Series/BarneyAndFriends Barney the Dinosaur]], but Chuckie and Dil honestly liked having a role model who wasn't so scary looking. They could have done something nice with Gobber to show that it's okay for friends to like different things, and it was kind of half-assed with emphasizing all Goober does is "give hugs". Yes, what the guy in the suit did was pretty mean stealing another kid's toy (and all the horrible parenting points go to Didi for not noticing this), but we don't know anything about this guy besides he's kind of a jerk. He might have a legit reason to hate the Reptar suit guy. He was eating his sandwich, for one, and when he threatened him, the Reptar guy just mocked him saying he would give it back if he would "give me a hug!" In the end, he lost the fight, and everyone cheers for Reptar for saving the kids he sent flying while booing him for saying "hey, I could have done that too!" It was really both their faults as Reptar pushed Gobber into the table that sent the babies flying.

* PrincessTogezo: I can find something to like about almost any ''Rugrats'' episode, but "Silent Angelica" comes off as a total misfire. It just feels too mean-spirited for a show like this one. Basically, to get new toys, Angelica tries to behave herself by staying quiet until her mom's done with a business call and her dad's done watching a badminton game, but the babies keep being loud. Somehow, Angelica never gets the idea to whisper to them and explain what's going on, and so they think something's wrong with her (like maybe she's sad or sick). At the end of the episode, when the babies are bothering her and being loud, she finally snaps and yells that there's nothing wrong with her and she's just trying to get some toys. Unfortunately, Drew and Charlotte heard this, and because of her yelling and the mess in the room, decide that Angelica shouldn't get any toys (to add insult to injury, this was just a few seconds before the time where Angelica could stop being quiet). In most ''Rugrats'' episodes, when Angelica gets punished, it's because she did something to deserve it. Here, she was genuinely trying to behave, and yet she got punished anyway. It's uncomfortably similar to the later [[WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb "Candace Gets Busted"]] in this regard, and definitely one of the weaker episodes of ''Rugrats''.

* Just Another Troper: Now, I honestly loved Rugrats ever since I was a little kid, but there is only one episode I just can't stand watching, and that episode is "Angelica Breaks a Leg". The reason I hated that episode is because of how Angelica treated Stu and Didi poorly to do her bidding, and what's worst? Angelica asked Stu to make chocolate pudding and then he went to the convenience store and buy pudding mix, and then he makes it at 4am, and Angelica say's she's not hungry anymore. Wow, that is really mean spirited of Angelica to force her uncle to do her bidding (I know she did means things before, but this is way too far. Poor Stu.

* KrisSimsters: Are we not going to talk about "A Visit from Lipschitz"? I have to give huge idiot points to Didi, Stu, Grandpa Lou, and Chaz for leaving a stranger in the house by himself because they went looking for the babies who "vanished." This was not a good idea on anybody's part. Why did this man take a bath in the house?

* Tropers/TotalDramaRox97: Didi can't be given the award for "Most Attentive Parent" but in the episode "The Big Showdown", this inattentiveness irritating levels. Dil was having bad dreams and Didi thinks all the Reptar stuff is scaring Dil (when it's obviously the thunderstorm outside the window facing Dil's crib). So what does she do? She takes away all of Dil's and Tommy's Reptar stuff and replaces it with a character named Goober the Gopher after a hotline caller recommended it. It's easy to understand why she wanted to keep it hidden Dil, but why Tommy he was never crying or anything? When Tommy shows a distaste to Goober, Didi considers throwing the Reptar stuff away. One can only wonder why she thought that would be a good idea. Thankfully, the hotline director recommends she goes to a Toy Fair where a man dressed as Goober would be. This is where it gets infuriating. While there Betty tells Didi that she might be going overboard and tries to point out Reptar isn't that bad, Didi disagrees. Here's the infuriating part. When they go to meet Goober, the man turns out to be a complete JerkAss. He takes Tommy's Reptar toy making him cry and replaces it with a Goober stuffed animal. Time for Didi to stand up to Goober? Not quite. She defends Goober and is shocked that Tommy would respond that way. The guy just stole your baby's toy, made him cry, and she thinks he's the good guy? I understand Didi can lack common sense sometimes but this episode took it way too far.

* Tropers/BronyOfTheOctaves: The episode 'Tricycle Thief' was the biggest middle finger insulting episode of the show. The basic premise is that Susie's tricycle goes missing, and blames Angelica for stealing it just because she ended up damaging it earlier in the episode. Granted, Angelica has lied several times before, but she was clearly completely innocent of the "lost" trike from the very beginning. Worse, while confronted about the "stolen" trike, when hints that are obvious to the contrary are pointed out (such as the reflector being completely intact), Susie stubbornly comes up with ridiculous theories stating "she threw away the broken one and stole it from someone else's trike." Now this would have been a decent episode using the "{{Misblamed}}" plot, but instead comes off as a degrading episode to Angelica with Susie literally decides that as a means to make Angelica confess (to something she honestly doesn't know about) or else her dang doll is going to be sent into the air by Chuckie's balloon. Even if it's made to seem Angelica "stole" Susie's tricycle, you can tell she didn't and yet this entire episode is making you sit through god knows how many agonizing minutes of Angelica pleading that she didn't steal the tricycle. It's a basic CharacterDerailment to Susie, who's known to be level headed (at least before ''WesternAnimation/AllGrownUp'' came in) and just having her order Phil and Lil into holding Angelica like that (especially when Cynthia is let go). It actually made this troper smile when Angelica started to give a huge TheReasonYouSuckSpeech to Susie after it's revealed she obviously didn't steal the tricycle, even if it was a little one. But of course it was taken back when Cynthia is returned. The episode was just poorly done and derailed Susie's character, as well as Phil and Lil's, but not so much.

As fondly remembered as ''WesternAnimation/{{Rugrats}}'' is, sometimes it produces [[DarthWiki/DethroningMomentOfSuck moments]] worse than the smell of a loaded diaper.

Basically, to get new toys, Angelica tries to behave herself by staying quiet until her mom's done with a business call and her dad's done watching a badminton game, but the babies keep being loud. Somehow, Angelica never gets the idea to whisper to them and explain what's going on, and so they think something's wrong with her (like maybe she's sad or sick). At the end of the episode, when the babies are bothering her and being loud, she finally snaps and yells that there's nothing wrong with her and she's just trying to get some toys. However, Drew and Charlotte heard this, and because of her yelling and the mess in the room, decide that Angelica shouldn't get any toys (to add insult to injury, this was just a few seconds before the time where Angelica could stop being quiet). In most ''Rugrats'' episodes, when Angelica gets punished, it's because she did something to deserve it. Here, she was genuinely trying to behave, and yet she got punished anyway. That's just infuriating! It's uncomfortably similar to the later [[WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb "Candace Gets Busted"]] in this regard, and definitely one of the weakest episodes of ''Rugrats''.

* Tropers/{{KoopaKid17}}: The ending to "Angelica's Worst Nightmare" made Angelica more insufferable than she already is. It's built up when Drew and Charlotte tell her that they're not going to have another child after all. [[NoodleIncident What exactly happened is left to the viewer's interpretation]]. Angelica seems to share their pain until she goes up to her room, closes the door and lets out a BigYes. Fade to black. Okay, Angelica is supposed to be selfish but it's downright cruel to celebrate an event that leaves your parents traumatized. This especially considering [[UnintentionallyUnsympathetic we were supposed to sympathize with her after her nightmare]], and one that dealt with a potential real-life issue that kids can relate to. This just cements Angelica as being practica lly ungrateful for being an only child.

* Tropers/CJCroen1393: "Wash-Dry Story" randomly turns into a ''Theatre/{{Grease}}'' parody for no good reason. All of the songs (besides "Cynthia", which was actually [[CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming kind of sweet]]) were completely random, sounded awful and filled with {{Painful Rhyme}}s. It was full of plot holes (how exactly did Angelica know they were all singing when she was at home and not at the laundromat?), the [=McNulty=] boys were [[{{Flanderization}} flanderized horribly]] and the plot was just nonexistent, and not in a good way. Overall just a terribly dull episode.

* Random Troper: "The Word of the Day" where Angelica learns a swear word. Drew and Charlotte really did not handle the situation well at all. They just punish Angelica for saying a bad word when she had no idea what she was saying.

** Tropers/JadeEyes1: Not only that, but Drew, the cops, and the waitress [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking were all wrong]]: Tarzan is the King of the African jungle (i.e. what most people think of when they think of "the jungle"); King Kong is only the King of Skull Island. Anyone who has even a basic knowledge of those characters should know that. Not only does Drew go through a HumiliationConga, but he does so at the hands of a people who are too dumb to know what they're talking about -- and, in the case of Drew, too petty and stubborn to admit when they could be wrong.

* No ALLCAPS, no [[AC:asscaps]], no '''bold''', and no ''italics'' unless it's the title of a work. We are not yelling the [=DMoSs=] out loud.
