History WesternAnimation / AllGrownUp

* VocalEvolution: All of the Rugrats are voiced by the same actresses they had in ''Rugrats'', but most of them have deeper, more refined voices to reflect the characters' older ages. Only Chuckie, Phil and Suzie sound more or less the same as they did in the prior show.

* MatzoFever: Kimi for Tommy. Nicole also gets the hots for him in another episode, thanks to Cupid.

* DownerEnding: "All Broke Up" ends with Rachel breaking up with Tommy and most of his friends angry at him for not telling him he wasn't really hurt about Rachel moving even though they didn't listen to his statements about it the first time.

* SassyBlackWoman: Susie

JustForFun/NotToBeConfusedWith the trope SheIsAllGrownUp.

* AbsenteeActor: Tommy and Dil are the only Rugrats to appear in the final episode "The Golden Child", making this the only time Chuckie is absent in the series. Phil and Lil don’t appear in "Saving Cynthia".

** In one episode Didi states that she thinks it's genetic. "... from Stu's side of the family of course."

* MostWritersAreAdults: Taken to [[ExaggeratedTrope ridiculous levels]]. The main cast is only ''11-to-13-years-old'', and yet they all act like 15 to 16-year-olds. Then again, in the original series they acted like toddlers, instead of the babies that they were, so maybe this is just carrying on the tradition?

* AdultFear:
** In “Susie Sings The Blues”, Susie is conned out of a large sum of money by a con-woman posing as a talent agent. Her older sister's speech upon learning this is chillingly accurate.
-->'''Alisa''': I should have gone with you; I should have checked this woman out!
-->'''Susie''': I promise I'll pay you back every cent.
-->'''Alisa''': The money? Susie, ''worse'' things could have happened to you than just losing a thousand dollars! You hang out with someone you don't even know. Say yes to whatever she tells you to do? She could have taken it a lot further than she did! ''Think'' about it!
** The two-parter "R.V. Having Fun Yet", has the kids sneak out of the aforementioned RV at night to explore. Unfortunately, Betty wakes up and, not knowing the kids are missing, sees that there's no traffic and figures it's a great time to rack up some miles on the trip to New York. By the time they realize the kids are missing, they are ''hundreds'' of miles apart. The result is both groups attempting to meet halfway. How many parents dread losing their kids during a vacation? We're guessing all of them.

* JustTakeThePoster: Tommy does this in the episode "Super Hero Worship" [[YouMakeMeSic (sic)]].

* CordonBleughChef: The school chef Pepe, who often makes unusual food combinations such as fish and marmalade tacos. Angelica once tried to manipulate him into cooking normal food in "Chuckie's In Love", but the food ends up making everyone sick because Pepe mistakenly put soap in it.

** In the Rugrats episode "All Growed Up" Drew looks just like how he did in the original show, as does Charlotte. Charlotte has plastic surgery in the actual show so she has a permanent smile, and Drew looks more like Lou Pickles.

* KarmaHoudini: In "Susie Sings the Blues", she pays $1000 to a record dealer to make her a singing sensation. Turns out she was just conned and left out in the middle of the slums. The "producer" disappears from the plot just before the reveal, and recieves absolutely no comeuppance for her actions.
** She does, however, get an implied comeuppance in the game "All Grown Up!: Express Yourself," when Angelica follows her and calls the police on her, implying that she's been arrested for her actions.

* MySisterIsOffLimits: Chuckie's reaction to Kimi dating. (And to his suspicion that Tommy may have a 'thing' for her.)

** TheHero: Tommy
** TheLancer: Chuckie

%%* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome:
** CharacterDevelopment aside, the main cast lost a lot of the personality traits they had when they were babies. Nobody stays exactly the same throughout their entire life, especially with the drastic physical and mental changes anyone would go through from age 1 to age 10. For example Tommy lost most of the courageous, adventure-loving attitude he had as a baby after being traumatized from nearly drowning, and the twins Phil and Lil no longer share the same interests from when they were toddlers.
** In the episode "Susie Sings the Blues", Susie got a deal with a record producer after she pays her a $1000 so she can be a singing sensation. Susie's older sister, Alisa warns her about it and felt that it is too good to be true. Susie found out the hard way, that her sister is right about the so-called "producer" is actually a con-woman, and left her out in the slums.

* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome:

Compare ''WesternAnimation/QuackPack'' for [[TimeSkip a similar update]] on a [[WesternAnimation/DuckTales classic kids' cartoon show.]]

** The pilot treats Susie as if she isn't one of the gang or at least doesn't hang with them that often - facilitating a plot point where they try to sneak around her while she's babysitting. In the series proper, she and Kimi are in fact best friends. She's also shown with short hair as opposed to the series's more familiar look where she wears it in braids and a bandana.

* GrowingWithTheAudience: When ''WesternAnimation/{{Rugrats}}'' first aired it was a children's show that focused on the exploits of toddlers. However when the show passed the ten year mark, it was revamped into ''WesternAnimation/AllGrownUp'', aging the protaganists to the status of pre-teens to appeal to the aging original audience of Rugrats.

* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: Spinesnapper, the high school student Dil stole the "alien autospy" video from in the episode "Bad Blood". As if his name wasn't scary enough, Dil informs that he sleeps during the day. When Tommy finds out, he is ''absolutely horrified''. Not only did his brother commit a crime, but he did it to the one guy he ''really'' shouldn't have. Worse, Tommy points out that even though it's Dil's fault, he is the one who will be beaten into a pulp, because the local kids apparently have a rule (which seems to extend to the high school crowd) that the older brother must always pay for the younger ones crimes. Tommy actually [[LampshadeHanging lampshades]] the whole thing.

** Tell me if the basic storyline of ''Chuckie's In Love'' sounds familiar: [[Film/MrsDoubtfire A person wanting to get closer to someone they care about disguises themself as a foreigner (with help from their sibling) who seems perfect in every way and the person becomes very fond of...but when they're busted after a failed TwoTimerDate at a restaraunt,said person is shocked and hurt...but they reconcile at the end.]]

* SpinoffBabies: Inverted; they were babies in the original show, and older in the spinoff.
* ShipTease: TP+KF has Kimi admit that she once had a crush on Tommy and the ending of the episode suggests she still is.
