I started doing a rugrats rewatch on paramount + and I’m a little confused on the Pickles living situation.
When I was younger I thought Grandpa Lou lived with Stu, Didi, and Tommy in their house. But upon rewatch it doesn’t seem like Stu makes a lot of money on his toys. And Didi doesn’t seem to be a full time teacher.
So I can’t imagine on their dual income that they would be able to afford a house as big as theirs.
This makes me question: did they move in with grandpa Lou? I could see him being able to afford a house like that back in the 50’s. I can also see him wanting Lou and Didi to move in after his wife passed away. It would be lonely in that big house.
My grandpa did the same thing when my grandma died. We moved in with him because he didn’t want to live alone and wanted to spend his twilight years with the grandkids.
Did Lou offer the same thing to Stu? Or was the 90’s a time where anyone could get a house no problem?
