Rugrats

The Rugrats Don’t Exist, Except For Angelica

This is perhaps the most popular, unsettling theory of them all, but it’s worthy of being shared because it’s just that demented. Here’s the gist:

The babies are figments of Angelica’s imagination. The DeVilles had an abortion and Angelica couldn’t decide if it was a boy or girl, so her creative brain decided to roll with twins. Chuckie died along with his mother, which explains the overly anxious complete mess of a grown man that his father, Chaz always is. Then there’s Tommy. Tommy was a stillborn, which explains why Stu relentlessly builds toys in his basement – they’re all for the dead son who never lived to play with them. Suzie was Angelica’s only real-life friend, and she just went along with the preposterous fantasies for Angelica’s sake.
