How this season is filed

Filed by Vivian Cross · The Carpet Report

Babies as unreliable narrators of suburban life — a pickle jar becomes a monster, a backyard becomes a jungle. Nicktoons at peak invention: Tommy’s tuft, Angelica’s tyranny, and parents who stay just offscreen enough to feel real. Childhood as mythology, merchandised to death, still funnier than the adult shows it accidentally trained you to expect.
