She made her sex explicitly clear, presenting it as a strength. She did not try to be masculine in an effort to be like the men.
She never wore flats, as if to say: 'I can do whatever the men do, backwards and in heels.' Her whole aesthetic was a statement. Did we ever see her with her hair down? Her skirt suits - never trousers - were well-tailored, complete with shoulder pads, cinched waists and silk ties.
A high, tightly wound blonde ponytail made it clear that she meant business at all times. She didn't even make her debut until the 14th episode of the second series, but she made her mark on the show's legacy. Because that character was the ultimate example of a powerful woman on television. My instinct there was to write Charlotte Motherf***ing Pickles. Susie Carmichael - an intelligent, measured foil to Angelica's spoiled brat - is rightly lauded as one of the greatest Black cartoon characters of all time. Episodes that focused on the Pickles family's Jewish faith gave some kids at home the representation they had previously missed out on. Rugrats - a cartoon following the adventures of a group of babies and toddlers - spawned several seasons, a successful film franchise and a lucrative merchandise range. In 1991, a legitimate sensation landed on children's television.
