Cartoon with babies (not Rugrats)? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

MariposaLKB · 02-10-2011, 04:19 PM

My teenage daughter said her friend was recently talking about a cartoon she vaguely remembered from their childhood, which featured babies but was not Rugrats. They were like superheroes who used their diapers as weapons. She said it was quickly canceled for being inappropriate. Since my daughter just graduated from high school, this would probably have been on about 10 years ago.

Anyone know what this was? Or what network it was on? Thanks in advance for the help.

I don't know much about this cartoon either, but as a member of the "Big Cartoon Database" forum, you can probably ask them...or I can since I have an account there, and there's a section called "Mystery Cartoon". You can write about this cartoon and they'll give you an answer.

Good idea--if you would maybe copy and paste my question that would be great!

The only one I can think of with "baby superheroes" is "The Mighty Heroes".

It aired in 1966 for only 22 episodes.

The baby was named 'Diaper Man'.

Hmm...probably not the one, as I understand this was from when my daughter and her friends were kids, like in the late 1990's to early 2000's. What you have pictured I think I remember from MY childhood LOL! Unless it was rerun in recent years that I don't know about....

I keep wondering if maybe my daughter's friend is thinking of the episode of Rugrats in which they were superheroes, but she insists she is not.

I was a child in the 90's and early 00's. Do they remember if the show had an opening theme song and what it looked/sounded like?

MariposaLKB · 02-12-2011, 07:43 PM

Not as far as I know. What seemed to register most with Liz (the friend) was how they used their diapers for weapons and that it was canceled for "inappropriateness" LOL!

Jessica · 02-12-2011, 08:13 PM

Hmm.. then it's not Rugrats, cause I don't think that was banned. I'm not sure, it must have been on TV only for a short time, and maybe they didn't show it over here. I've seen a lot of cartoons from all time, but I don't think I've seen that one.

MariposaLKB · 02-12-2011, 08:24 PM

That's the problem, around our house we all think we HAVE seen it but are not remembering what it was--we all still watch and love Rugrats, though.

Jessica · 02-12-2011, 08:36 PM

Strange. So you have seen it too? Well, if there were super hero babies with diapers as weapons, ithen I'm quite sure it wasn't even a good show.

MariposaLKB · 02-12-2011, 11:48 PM

Didn't last long, I guess..."inapproriate" LOL

Must have been this - Mega Babies.

MariposaLKB · 02-13-2011, 11:02 AM

Very well could be. I googled it and it does sound gross as far as their "superpowers" LOL! Thanks for the info!

EDIT: By the way, surprised to see this show had 4 seasons and 38 episodes, since Liz was saying it was pulled off the air rather quickly. Showed the video to my daughter--she says that is it. I think it was ME that was having flashbacks to the one episode of Rugrats where they were superheroes, as this video didn't jog my memory at all LOL! Thanks again to everyone who helped out.

Jessica · 02-13-2011, 11:55 PM

I never saw that show. Glad I didn't. Surprising it had 4 seasons then. It looks bizarre.
