Bizarre Dreams in Rugrats
Ойын-сауық
Today we look at episodes of Rugrats that featured some of the craziest dreams. Into the Dreamtime specifically is one of my all time favorites episodes of rugrats. It really showcases the creativity in storytelling and animation that Clasky Csupo was really capable of. Enjoy!

Man, the Rugrats was a trip on it's own. Rewatching it as an adult just gives out a whole different vibe

My sis was obsessed with cheese as a kid. One day, when our mom was taking care of me, she told me sis to go outside. My sis replied "okay I'll take some cheese with me"
Rugrats actually kept pretty good consistency. That clown lamp was broken in a later episode. And we got to see Herman Shocter in the booster shot episode
Phil is hands down the most hilarious character on Rugrats.

You know she learned everything she knows from overhearing her mom’s business calls
I just love the face Tommy makes after Angelica is so proud of him for how much he threw up
The dreams are part of why the Rugrats is fun. Its a good idea to use a dream to make characters realize what they've done. Hey arnold also did this
Phil's face moving through the sand mound always tripped me out as a kid.
Pickles Vs. Pickles is probably the craziest episode in the series.

The little song Didi and Stu make up for Tommy is so sweet! I grew up on Rugrats and both the dream episodes that gave ME nightmares were here: the giant baby in Angelica's dream and "I'm not Tommy/Stu!" with the freaky face/voice. Literally couldn't even look at the giant baby.

These surreal scenes are some of the reasons why I love Rugrats. I'm never forgetting that slumber party episode lol, one of my favorites.
Weaning Tommy had a pretty freaky dream sequence too, also wanna mention when Chuckie dreams about being a ,title people toy
When I was little, my mom would put on cartoons shortly before waking me up for school. Rugrats would come on around that time, and I could hear the show in my sleep. I would have so many dreams about Rugrats. Dreaming entire episodes. It would still be on by the time I did wake up. It was my morning ritual to watch Rugrats while my mom helped me get ready for school.

Chuckie’s first dream in the episode In The Dream Time used to and still scares me!
"I'm not Stu!" used to scare me so much lmao. It's still creepy.
Love how Phil was just getting buried in sand and Lil was just eating fistfuls of sand during the whole time Chuckie is describing how he's dreaming - but it doesn't even register as unusual to anyone.
In a Dreamtime was the most scariest episode I ever saw and it killed my childhood and it haunts me as a child. blameitonjorge brought me here.

I know! I’m honestly still scared of the first dream Chuckie has in that episode! Mainly when it shows Tommy’s face at the end of that dream
As a kid, I died laughing my ass off when Chaz woke up screaming. Whether it's losing his millions, the broken glass elephant, or the tub overflowing, everything bad happens to poor Chaz.
The Rugrats made me lmfao to this day…just a very unique cartoon and was one of my favorites as a kid lol…
Chuckerfly episode has my favorite line from Rugrats ever: "Poor Chuckie he's not cute anymore and he's got no jammies!"
I remember an episode of this show, it was not a dream episode but it still scared me as a kid, it was the one where Tommy lose his green army man in the bath tub.
That´s one of the things I like the most about Rugrats, it can be so imaginative and surreal, and that hand-made animation takes the best of those concepts. It's amazing to remember and rewatch this episodes as an adult not just for the inherent nostalgia, but because you see a lot of things you didn't noticed before. Also, I would like to add, being fromo Mexico I watched all those episodes in spanish dub, and in the last episode, the voices that say "I'm not Tommy" and "I'm not Stu" are more adult-like and as a child I almost feel them a bit menacing haha, so they added an extra layer of creepyness to the whole stuff. Amazing work, I love your videos!
Probably one of the few things from Rugrats I still enjoy.
From child neglect to surrealistic dreams. Definitely was a wild ride.
Dream or not Angelica is the worst child ever and shouldn't be near any babies. There's also that dream Chuckie had when he wished he was never born after Angelica took his dad's cd. That was very disturbing, Angelica for the best punishment she deserved!!!

And that’s why this show is such a classic it shows things that the normal viewer isn’t ready to see
The slumber party sequence always reminds me of that bit from The Simpsons when Homer falls asleep driving his car (even though I don't think Klasky-Cupo was animating Simpsons by that time).
I think I watched the Angelica’s worst nightmare episode when I was about eight or nine, but I guess I was a pretty precocious kid, because I found it really upsetting and disturbing, because whether she understood or not, as a three-year-old child, obviously, she didn’t understand, or rather a three-year-old wouldn’t understand, but she was basically insisting that her mom have an abortion, and I knew what that was at age 9, and I found that pretty freaky. Also, the way for mom is talking the next morning, it really does sound like she perhaps, lost the pregnancy, as opposed to it, simply being a negative test result.
8:37 it seems like this dreams going for a noir feel! Just the angles the way everything is sinister the German expressionism very nourish the way the baby talks.
I had a dream as a kid after watching Rugrats that grandpa screamed “god dammit” and cussed up a storm in the middle of an episode. I also used to have a lot of dreams about ET, still do occasionally
Pickles V.S Pickles is a very kafkaesque dream I really like how the judge is modelled in its likeness to that of former Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall
Im 17 years old and i have a very over active imagination. My dreams are always wild af. And even when im awake im always off in some fantasy or imagining the most bizarre things happening. Im still very afraid of the dark. And i can't watch anything thats even slightly creepy or ill be up for days. A previous video you made at least in this timeline, was the hey Arnold episode with the ghost train and me watching that video at 3 am was enough to tickle my fear.
One of my favorite shows when I was young
Wanna hear something insane? "Kane" is the mayor of my county here in Tennessee.
18:26 - 18:36 - Love how Tommy, Phil, and Lil aren't creeped out by the extremely surreal twisted staircase in the Pickles' house that goes all the way up into space and they all act like it's just normal. That's the first indication that Chuckie was dreaming, yet again.
You forgot the scary Angelica is king of the world and on a throne like a total slob, it’s the dream where Chucky’s guardian angel version of himself comes and shows Chucky what the world is like if he didn’t exist. Tommy would be a neglected street urchin, the twins would be spoiled yet dirty, Angelica would be king, Spike would be a stray, and Didi and Stu would be eating their last food crumbs and living in filth and squalor. You forgot the one where everyone is an alien and alien robots, up in space. You forgot the one where Chucky is being potty trained and his dream sequence makes Angelica into The Executioner and the toilet sucks him down. You forgot the one where Chucky and Tommy are afraid of the drain and bathtub and have a freaky dream about being sucked down the drain. Maybe one fever dream that was a fucked up episode was Moose Country, season 2 I think, somewhere sandwiched between Mr Friend, Stu Falls Off the Roof and Becomes a Baby, Mattress Boy, BBQ, and Angelica Runs Away. Don’t forget the time that was a fever dream to us but wasn’t even a dream, Chucky and Chas wind sweepstakes and suddenly they’re rich and living the lavish luxury life, a swimming pool full of jello, a rich kid daycare, and a butler and limo and big mansion. That one was weird.

Angelica's nightmare is legit one of the scariest part of the shows. It used to terrifying the fuck out of me as a kid.
I always remember that creepy Mad Hatter sounding sippy cup very nefarious
These are some of my favorite episodes
the Mr friend episode freaked me out as a kid
That first one wasn't a dream. That was Tommy having a hallucination because he was running such a bad fever that he could have died
19:23 If I'd see a pile of sand talking, then I'd convince myself I'm dreaming.
6:33 why does the pregnancy test look like she was brewing some kind of mana potion? chuckies dream issues are actually suprisingly realistic...this is most comon with vivid lucid dreamers,or those that can accurately recall thier dreams to such detail that familiar triggers of dajavu in waking life can make them question weather they are in reality or not
I’ve been watching your videos for a while, and love how you present them. As a long time Rugrats fan myself, you picked some good ones here. I recall the first time I ever saw Pickles vs. Pickles, I turned it on in the middle of the episode when it was on TV, and grew very confused. Good picks though, and had this been a top 10 list rather than a top 5, I can think of 3 more bizarre dream sequences that could have made the list. The First Cut, where Tommy has a dream where stuffing is literally, coming out of his leg. Mr. Clean, where Chuckie is chased all over his room by germs, which seem very much like hairy scary insects in my opinion, and finally, not sure if you’ve had a chance to watch the reboot on Paramount+ yet, but in the hour long special premier, The Second Time Around, Chuckie has a dream where he’s now turned into a worm and is trying to avoid Phil who is trying to eat him. Anyway, just some other ones I thought of, but great job as always, and I look forward to checking out more of your videos in the future.

Slumber party was one of my fave episodes
I really do love Rugrats. Radio Daze being my favorite episode, introducing me to the Noir look I still love. But man, Pivkles vs. Pickles really showed Drew is the biggest pushover of a parent there's even been
Good stuff.
My favorite dream episodes have to be Puhoy from adventure time and there was one I remember that was a lucid dream from Clarence. Wonderfully bizarre
I totally forgot about the butterfly episode! I loved doing that as a kid and now I remember why! ♥ It was very comforting to wrap yourself up like a burrito (it still is!) lol. It's how I sleep when its cold.
I relate to Chuckie's dream the most. the one where his friends all get the ability to fly, but then he doesn't. I used to have dreams like that all time. Where all my friends either got cool abilities or cool gadgets or a ton of toys or something or got to go somewhere really fun or special or magical and I was always the one left out or left behind. Those were always worse than the nightmares. Because even in my own dreams, I didn't get to have any fun. I'm just left out and miserable. I think it reflected my life pretty well. I'd never been on vacations ever, was always poor, everyone got to go on out of state field trips at school, but I never got to go. Being poor absolutely sucks.
5:45 this scene is kinda cute, angelica sounds so genuinely impressed 😂

To me, in real life, the trappiest dreams are the ones you don't know are dreams until something really fricken weird happens. So Drew's dream is the best one imo. I once had a fever dream where I woke up, drove to work, was working, then my brother got in line, and asked me what I was doing in an abandon grocery store, only for me to look around and find myself inside a decrepit and completely abandoned store. To say I woke up confused and weirded out for about 3 seconds until my brain rationalized it was just a dream, is an understatement, because up until the point my brother got me, the dream didn't seem like a dream.
Pickles vs. Pickles always drove me nuts hahaha.
Those are the dreams of a happy youth. The dreams I almost never have anymore. Those dreams must be cherished.
This was a truly amazing video thank you so much please keep making rugrats videos like this I love them I am subscribing
Great video! I remember these episodes! I’ve always like the butterfly one
Easy listening, thank you for making these🎉
From what I remembered when I was a kid, out of all the bizarre dreams that was scary to me, Angelica's Worst Nightmare Ranks 1 of all of them.
What a trip dude 😂
18:01. “Hello there. Just in time for a spot of tea, eh wot?”
If you have to ask you'll never know. Lol classic
Me and my friend used to always do tht "IM NOT STUUUU!" bit all the time. lololol
“I’m Not Stu” will always scare me
I remember, I used to have some pretty weird dreams when I was little too, and I actually remember some Rugrats dreams that I used to have, for instance, I dreamt that the sky was the color. It is on the Rugrats, which is a purple looking color, and that the sky was falling.
Love your videos dude

Even though Angelica has done bad, its sad to see her in "Angelica's Worst Nightmare". Fear of replacement is common amongst children(merely Only Children). Also shut off the TV during Pickles Vs Pickles, cause down right shitty is that episode. I hated it so much I didn't even watch Rugrats for a week.

Look at the sky in the episode “In the Dreamtime.” During Chuckie’s dreams, the sky outdoors (as opposed to “outer space” in a room upstairs) was yellow, but it was blue when Chuckie was awake.
“And of course Angelica acts a fool” 😂😂😂😂
Just did dabs and going to bed rn watching this. I’m stoked to see what I dream about tonight 🤙🏻
i knew you were gonna add the episode where stu and tommy say "i'm not stuuu" or "i'm not tommy" when that first came on when i was watching it on tv it scared the living shit out of me
Just woke up, how topical.
This television show is amazing
"If you have to ask, you'll never know" is my favorite quote ever from any person, cartoon or real. I should have used that as my final quote in high school, damn
"Slumber Party" was one of the Rugrats episodes I was afraid to watch as a kid because of my emetophobia.
Oh this is so weird. I was literally just thinking of all the dream scenes in Rugrats before seeing your video on my home page.
That's quite the Quagmire cloud. 20:32 You can feel pain in dreams.
5:24 I truly loved how bizarre Rugrats was lol.
With Angelica’s nightmare, I kinda thought that she’s treated like that because she thinks she’ll be forgotten. In reality, she’s too focused on herself (which is true); she awful to Tommy and friends and to her father (abusing her parents’ power) and constantly lying to keep herself from being getting punished; she’s seen as the victim of rejection and threat by the parents and new baby. To me, she sees that’s how she treats others and she was realizing that she DID needed to think of others. But she reverts back to her narcissistic ways via her parents’ sad news
Cool video! 🔥

You ever notice on some of the episodes (I feel like it was Angelica's worst nightmare) but when the episode starts with the intro title when the paper like design balls back up I use to hear a more evil sounding decrescendo. (You know the noice that's sound like you rubbing a keyboard). Am I tripping or do other people know what I'm talking bout. Also Angelica was a savage damn. Lol.
I love rugrats I watched this episode on one of dvd,DVD,
Man the 1st 3 seasons of rugrats has some strange episodes
what about the time when Angelica ended up on Arrakis?
Kane vs Chucky would be a dream match
I have had worse dreams but the two with Tommy and then Stu. That kind of stuff would have had me screaming at night #ImNotStu.
Omg I also had a crazy dream about Chucky from "Child's Play"! Except mine was a real life sized Chucky who was a man that was chasing me around with a 🔪. I was about 8 years old. The episode "Slumber Party" of Rugrats used to freak me out 🤣 I recently watched it as an adult on Paramount Plus and laughed my a** off lol.
So Angelica throws an epic bitch fit literally throwing food and smashing plates but her parents say "go to your room" once and she just listens? WAT?
