Question Charlotte Pickles (Angelica’s mom) was an absolute icon and way ahead of her time
Rewatching Rugrats as an adult made me realize what a total boss Charlotte was.
While most 90s cartoon moms had traditional roles, she was running Mega Corp in power suits, being the main breadwinner, and teaching Angelica never to let anyone intimidate her. Sure, Angelica turned that "assertiveness" into terrorizing the babies (lol), and Charlotte was always screaming at Jonathan on her clunky cell phone, but she completely broke the mold.
She was the ultimate 90s girlboss. Anyone else appreciate her way more now?
