Tommy Pickles, leader of our intrepid band of Rugrats, is intelligent, courageous, compassionate and articulate. He also happens to be only one year old, which gives him an endlessly interesting perspective on life. Stu and Didi Pickles (1991) do their best to coddle their oldest child. But as Tommy says, "A baby's gotta do what a baby's gotta do." Under the not so very watchful eyes of the grown-ups, he leads his Rugrat friends on expeditions to unravel the great mysteries of life -- like "Where does the light go when the refrigerator door is closed?" To Tommy Pickles, the world doesn't always make sense, but it makes an incredible amusement park. - Rugrats Description from Klasky Csupo
Tommy Pickles has changed quite a bit since he was a baby. For one thing, he now has a full head of hair! Some things, however, are still the same: Tommy and Chuckie are still best friends, and Tommy is the guy all his friends turn to when they need advice or guidance. Tommy has done very well in school, getting good grades in almost every class. Still, the pressure of studying and keeping up with his pals can cause him to do strange things, like steal garden gnomes while sleepwalking around the neighborhood! Tommy has also developed a budding talent for making films and is no doubt on his way to becoming a famous director! Just like he was as a baby, Tommy is brave, loyal, and is eager to join in on any adventure. - All Grown Up! Description from Klasky Csupo
Tommy’s father is Christian, and his mother is Jewish, and the former born head leader of the babies. He is like twins with Angelica and is always ready for adventure with courage to spare. Sometimes he leads the babies into trouble (usually as a result of one of Angelica's lies), but he always manages to lead them back out again. He is a loyal fri...
In the original series, Tommy is only a 1-year-old baby toddler, but his catchphrase to Chuckie makes him call himself a toddler when he tells Chuckie not to be such a baby. He has a large, bald head with a few underfur's on it, and large, round eyes, with a thin neck, round ears, and a bit of a belly on him. Tommy's outfit consists of a powder turquoise shirt that shows his bellybutton, and a white, baggy diaper with yellow straps on it. He usually walks around barefoot and seems to be a bit pigeon-toed, as both of his feet face inwards.
In the Rugrats episode "All Growed Up!", Tommy is given spiky purple hair and wore a white long-sleeved raglan shirt with blue sleeves, blue jeans, and green and white sneakers with yellow buckles.
Tommy is best known for his bravery and adventure-seeking attitude. He is very playful and will do anything to have an adventure. Tommy is also very loving and protective towards his friends, especially his younger brother, Dil Pickles (1991). He was initially annoyed by Dil, but he became more caring towards him. He is very caring and kind-hearted and will never let his friends down. Tommy is extremely brave and is very rarely seen afraid of anything, only on a few small occasions. Tommy is also shown to be daring, as proved in the episode "Ransom of Cynthia", where he would rather take matters in his own hands instead of surrendering to the enemy.
He is also shown to be a natural leader and is looked up to by the other babies, coming up with the most ideas to get his friends and himself out of trouble. However, Tommy does have his faults, he can be a little short-tempered at times, sometimes act stubborn, a little smug if he lets his older cousin Angelica influence him and can be rather naive at times because he is a baby. Overall, Tommy is brave, adventurous, selfless, and caring.
Tommy appears in all but 4 episodes of the original series. He also appears in all the episodes of All Grown Up!, as he is the main character of each series. His first appearance was in the unaired "Tommy Pickles and the Great White Thing".
Didi Pickles - Didi is Tommy and Dil's mother. She has an overall good relationship with her son. Earlier in the series, we saw multiple affectionate moments. They have a wonderful bond, and when "danger" lurks, he's always worried about his mother (and father). Like in "They Came from the Backyard", when she was wearing soundproof headphones or "alien ears". Like Tommy, she's also a bit short-tempered and volatile. For instance, whenever she gets her sons, who saved the mall from idiotic robbers in "Rat Traps", Dil told her about the R-rated movie they snuck into. She filled with rage and dragged her son's home.
Also, in "R.V. Having Fun Yet?" when the gang went cross-country to New York, the kids were bored because the lack of video games, and movies. At the Grand Canyon, Didi was telling Tommy about the wonders of the beauty, which is the Grand Canyon, more specifically a rock tower. Tommy said, "You're going to make me stand here, and watch it, aren't Ya?" She explains they just want to get close with the preteens. Tommy lashes out, and tells her he's sick of getting close, being told what to do, and sick of having a mom. Ironically, later in the episode, when they sneak out for a water apparition that appears by mist shooting from geysers, in the middle of the desert. They come back to find the RV, and their moms gone. When they go through multiple challenges.
They walk down a deserted road, and stop from exhaustion, and dehydration. They slowly start getting depressed, and Tommy says they made it this far, and didn't they want to prove they are responsible. The others start telling their moms always have something to eat, or drink, or to provide for their needs. Tommy says it couldn't get much worse, but it starts raining. He falls to the ground, and yells "I... want... my... Mommy!", and collapses in a pool of his own tears. The others do the same. Their moms pull up, and they are so excited, and grateful. Didi says how proud she is of him and look how far he came. He said, "Yeah, no big D!" He shows signs of crying and hugs his mother.
Stu Pickles - Stu is Tommy and Dil's father. He loves Stu and inherits his inventor gene as seen in "The Science Pair".
Lou Pickles - Grandpa Lou is Tommy and Dil's paternal grandfather and is someone who Tommy loves very much. Many of Tommy's adventures come from the stories that Grandpa told to Tommy and the other babies. When Grandpa moved out of the Pickles' home in "Acorn Nuts & Diapey Butts", Tommy was upset because he thought Reptar was the cause of Grandpa's sudden urge to leave and tried to get rid of everything Reptar hoping he would come home.
However, after Lou and Lulu got married, Lou stayed in the retirement home with Lulu but still comes to visit Tommy and Dil. In All Grown Up!, Lou is much older, and when taking a class field trip in the episode "The Old and the Restless", Tommy snaps at him because Lou was embarrassing him, was tired of hearing the war stories, and wanted him to move faster. In the end though, after Tommy, Sean, and Justin got stuck in the broken heart of the exhibit, it was Lou who came to Tommy and his friends rescue and Tommy said he was glad that Lou had told him all the stories.
•Tommy is based on Arlene Klasky's son and is named after Paul Germain's son.
•In the pilot episode, Tommy was voiced by Tami Holbrook. In the series, he is voiced by E.G. Daily.
•Tommy's birthday is presumably August 11, considering the fact that the episode focusing on his birthday was officially created August 11, 1990, and then the episode was aired August 11, 1991. However, this could be wrong as a Fourth of July episode took place as the second episode after his first birthday.
•Tommy appears to have blue eyes, as seen in a close-up of him during the pilot episode, although this may not be true.
•Tommy was probably born premature, as he is seen in an incubator in the episode "Mother's Day".
•Tommy, up until Dil was born, was the smallest and youngest main character of Rugrats at the age of 1, being a couple months younger than Phil and Lil who are also 1.
