Synopsis

Amazon.com
The Rugrats have only grown up on select specials at their home base on Nickelodeon, so we shouldn't expect them to rise above the level of the shag carpet, right? On Holiday Classics, they live up to their rep for occasional potty-mouth humor and goofy hijinx, taking the kinds of liberties only these tikes can with standards like "Jingle Bells" (here rendered by Angelica as "Tinkle Heads.") The worm-eating goobers change the Hanukkah classic "The Dreidel Song" into "The Cradle Song" and take great delight in singing about how they filled little Dill's cradle with soup, "and when we try to drink it, it makes us want to poop." There are less graphic displays of the holiday spirit ("Tommy's Silent Night" has sincerity and cuteness to spare), but overall, calling Holiday Classics a cool stocking stuffer would really be a woolly stretch. --Martin Keller

"The Rugrats is one of those pieces of children's entertainment that both children and their parents can enjoy watching together. Kids love Tommy, Phil and Lil, and especially Chucky and can really relate to the adventures the young tykes go through. Parents and adults can appreciate the show on a much different level (beyond that of the poop and pee jokes) which usually brings about at least a smile if not a few chuckles or a full blow guff-faw. RUGRATS HOLIDAY CLASSICS revolves around the concept that first help make The Rugrats such a breakout phenomena on Nickelodeon; taking things very familiar and ordinary and twisting them around into the imaginary world of what young children might be thinking. The album is mostly a collection of classic Christmas and Chanukah songs sung by the babies and Angelica in the way they have heard and interpreted the songs. So, instead of "The Dradle Song" we get "The Cradle Song" and "Joy to the World" becomes "Toys for the Girls". The songs are lively and amusing. However, there are a couple of charmers in the group, too. Tommy's rendition of "Silent Night" is not only cute, but touching and "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Klause" isn't touching like "Silent Night" but is just as memorable. Overall, this is fun Christmas album that children, especially those who are fans of the Nicklelodeon, will enjoy. Adults might be amused by it, but will probably be leary that it could turn into a Raffi-type Christmas album."
