I'm sure everyone here has at least one series that the post title brings to mind, but the 2021 Rugrats reboot is what inspired this post. They haven't gone woke as far as I'm aware but they've completely shit all over the original series.
They're using CGI animation as opposed to the 2D animation the original and All Grown Up used, and it's fucking obnoxious. CGI is completely overrated as an animation style and Jimmy Neutron is the only series I can think of where it made a positive contribution. It's one thing to use it in a brand new franchise but why is it so much to ask to stick to the original style in a reboot?
Then there's the fact that they wiped their asses with the original storyline. They retconned how Kira and Chas met, replacing the Rugrats in Paris storyline with some retarded plot about them meeting over free piano lessons that Kimmy won. Dil doesn't even appear in the series, despite his birth taking place before Kimmy and Kira were introduced in the original. These aren't minor inconsistencies that autists obsess about. They're the two biggest events in the entire series that introduced new characters and storylines and did it very well. Like I said I'm not aware of the series going woke, so I don't understand the motivation for shitting all over the original.
Went full retro and never looked back
