Biography[]

Rugrats (1991)[]

Josh was a chubby older kid who befriended the babies at the park after they left Angelica Pickles for mistreating them. He claimed that "what's fair is fair" and seemed to be nice at first. However, Josh showed his true colors by forcing the babies to push him on the tire swing, stealing their cookies, and making them build him a moat (just like Angelica made them do). When Tommy stated that he wasn't being fair, Josh made a fist on him, implying that he would punch the babies if they object. The babies start to moan over their fate; they even admitted to having missed Angelica and the way she bullied them.

Knowing that Josh is worse than Angelica, Tommy secretly went to Angelica to ask for help, but she refused because the babies refused to dig a moat for her. Upon Tommy returning to the park, Josh was angry and decided to teach him and the other babies a lesson by swinging and jumping on them. However, before he can do so, Angelica (having changed her mind) hits him with a water balloon, threatening to throw more if he ever tries to hurt the babies. Josh refused, prompting an angry Angelica to push Josh down, causing him to get a scraped arm. Josh then runs crying to his mommy, and Angelica tells him never to mess with the babies again, much to the babies' delight.

Rugarts (2021 reboot)[]

Josh appears and bullies the babies who climbs up a tower by demanding them to get down due to his private property. He then starts climbing the tower and attempting to bully the babies before Angelica stands up to him. As Josh continues to climb up the tower, he gets shouted by Angelica and falls from the tower. He runs off by warning his mommy.

Later, Josh becomes one of a group of kids and listening to Gabi who telling a story about a girl who attempts to get apples from a tree. He suggests that the girl get a big stick and knock them down, but Gabi explains that in the story which the girl uses the power of her mind to get them down. During a later session of the Reading Rangers, he objects to the presence of the Rugrats, but he is reminded by Gabi that she talks with him about minding his own business.

Trivia[]

  • Despite being a one-shot character, Josh is arguably one of the darkest of the Rugrats villains, as he was worse than Angelica since he deliberately tried to jump on the babies (which likely would have killed them) for his own amusement, something which Angelica morally refused to cross.
