Tommy's First Birthday - S1-E2

Trivia: The VHS for Rugrats: A Baby's Gotta Do What A Baby's Gotta Do's front cover has a picture very similar to the picture Didi took of Angelica, Tommy and Chuckie.

The Ghost Talks - S1-E21

Trivia: Mike Pratt (playing Jeff Randall) really was laid up in a hospital bed with two broken legs. Mike Pratt was attempting to climb a drainpipe in a slightly inebriated state during his 38th birthday celebrations. He fell 20 feet into the basement area. He'd forgotten his keys, and saw the stand-in doing it - successfully - first. Mike being Mike, he thought, "I can do that" and had a go. Jeff's 'in character' excuse in the show was that he'd fallen from a balcony in a chase - a little more dignified than the truth.
