Hold on to your bottles, because the Rugrats are back for their “bigger-est” adventures yet.

Paramount+ has set a Thursday, May 27 premiere date for the Nicktoon’s CG-animated reboot. The date was first confirmed in a sizzle reel for the recently rebranded streaming service (fka CBS All Access), which featured new footage of Tommy Pickles and his menacing cousin Angelica. That was followed by a full-fledged trailer on Wednesday, which is embedded above.

The new Rugrats follows the “even bigger adventures born from the color imaginations of Tommy, Chuckie, Phil, Lil, Susie and Angelica,” according to the official logline. (Dil, Kimi and Kira have presumably been erased from existence.) The first batch of episodes will drop on May 27, followed by a second batch at a later date.

In the one-hour premiere, appropriately titled “Second Time Around,” Tommy leads the babies on a daring adventure to help Chuckie after his big attempt to be brave goes horribly wrong. (Warning: dinosaurs are involved.)

As previously reported, original voice actors E.G. Daily (Tommy), Nancy Cartwright (Chuckie), Cheryl Chase (Angelica), Cree Summer (Susie) and Kath Soucie (Phil and Lil) will reprise their iconic roles. New cast additions include Veep trio Tony Hale, Anna Chlumsky and Timothy Simons. Hale will take over the role of neurotic musician Chas Finster (aka Chuckie’s father), while Chlumsky and Simons will voice Angelica’s ‘rents, city councilwoman Charlotte and pharmaceutical rep Drew.

“Rugrats is one of the biggest and most influential TV hits among kids and parents ever,” President of Nickelodeon Animation Ramsey Naito said in a statement. “We can’t wait for the all-new series to debut on Paramount+.” Added executive producer and SVP of Nickelodeon Preschool Eryk Casemiro, “This brand-new CG take on the franchise is packed with all-new stories and adventures for the babies and pairs original voice cast members with an all-star roster of brand-new talent, making it the perfect combination for the original Nick generation and today’s kids.”

  • Peruvians march against new 'transphobic' law

    STORY: Protesters marched through Peru's capital Lima on Friday urging the government scrap a new law that labels transgender people, among others, as having a mental illness.Peru's government says the change aims to facilitate insurance coverage for transgender people, and "others with gender identity disorders", when they seek mental health care.But it's courting backlash."Gender identities stopped being considered pathologies many years ago", says transgender activist Gahela Cari Contreras. She says "this is a transphobic law."Peru bases its universal healthcare plan on the World Health Organization's International Classification of Diseases, or known as CIE-10 in Peru.Lawmaker and neurologist Edward Malaga said the language, in this case, is obsolete.“This law is outdated. It comes from 1994, if I am not wrong. The CIE-10 and the Ministry of Health have quoted unquote updated it but it’s an outdated law as it declares homosexuality a disease, which is obviously out of discussion. It’s not like that. What lawmakers have done is to ask the Ministry of Health to amend this.”Government officials insist there is a misunderstanding over the new law. The health ministry says it rejects the stigmatization of LGBTQ people and the legal language simply seeks to ensure more complete health coverage.
