The classic animated series, which was broadcast on Nickelodeon in the 1990s and spawned a series of films, will be revived for the new US streaming service Paramount+. “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. “I think this animation looks like s*** but I’ll probably watch every second of it,” wrote one fan. There will also be live-action versions of children’s animated series Dora the Explorer and Fairly Odd Parents, a revival of the sketch series Inside Amy Schumer and an animated Star Trek spin-off.
