The series premiered on May 27, 2021, on Paramount+; it is the second Nickelodeon-based series created for the streaming service. The surviving voice actors of the titular "Rugrats" reprise their roles from the original series, though the adult roles have been recast, including Betty DeVille who was originally voiced by the returning Kath Soucie. As a continuity reboot, the 2021 series has differences to the original 1991 series.
Just like the original series, Rugrats focuses on the experiences of a courageous, adventurous one-year-old baby named Tommy Pickles.
