Why Fans Think Max And Ruby Is So Much Darker Than It Appears
Children’s TV shows and movies that people grew up with as kids will always have a special place in their hearts. After all, it’s these shows that help form them as children and teach them plenty of important life lessons through colorful characters and entertaining adventures. One of the longest-running kids’ TV shows of recent years has been the series Max and Ruby, which stars the titular cute and cuddly bunnies.
However, fans of the series have begun to realize how odd it was -- asking questions about Max and Ruby including where their parents are and why Max never speaks. They soon thought that the TV show is so much darker than it appears, and here’s why!
Fans Believe Max And Ruby Killed Their Own Parents
Throughout the overwhelming majority of the show’s run, fans never see the rabbit’s parents. They aren’t in the series at all. Naturally, many would deduce that it has something to do with the fact that the TV show revolves around the misadventures the little bunnies embark on their own little playtimes.
At the end of the day, it is a show intended for the children – so it isn’t a big deal if it doesn’t involve the parents. People point that the urn featured in the rabbits’ home contains the ashes of Max and Ruby’s parents. Some then claim that the two bunnies were playing silly games and having misadventures to forget about the fact that their folks died in an accident.
A fan wrote, “My mom just said ruby from max&ruby killed her parents while drunk driving and that’s why she has to take care of max.” Another commented, “Max and ruby must be crazy and killed their parents.”
Others say that it was the creepy kids who killed them, or it was the silent Max who pulled off the crime. One tweeted, “Max from Max and Ruby def killed both his parents I could always tell by his face.” Another wrote, “The more I see of Max and Ruby the more convinced I am Max killed their parents.”
While these theories seem interesting and believable, none of them are true. The show’s creator provided an explanation behind the reason why the parents were never seen in the series. Rosemary Wells revealed, “We don’t see Max and Ruby’s parents because I believe that kids resolve their issues and conflicts differently when they’re on their own.”
Wells added, “The television series gives kids a sense about how these two siblings resolve their conflicts in a humorous and entertaining way.” Nickelodeon, who offered a myriad of popular TV shows, finally featured the rabbits’ parents after five seasons and 14 years of the show – putting to rest the theory that the two rabbits are murderers. The bunnies’ parents showed up in the picture in season 6, which aired in 2016.
Fans Believe Max Couldn’t Talk Properly Due To Trauma
Many have long since wondered about why Max never speaks in the show. Over the years, fans have begun asking why the three-year-old bunny only utters few words, and most of the time, he is silent. A number of fan theories have emerged about it, offering up suggestions based on their observations.
One theory suggests that Max was injured in a car accident, where his parents died. It apparently left him only able to speak in short sentences. Another fan theory points out that Max’s grandmother, who can be seen throughout the series, may have abused him and that the trauma of such violence may have left him too scared to speak.
Throughout most of the show, Max didn’t talk. He was a quiet toddler, but as the series progressed, he did talk using short words and phrases. The reason for Max’s speaking could be due to him growing up. It is something that has changed as he has grown and his parents are already around to support him.
A fan tweeted, “Since Max and Ruby is trending, let me inform everyone that ever since the show was recently, Max can now speak full sentences and their parents are now on the show.” What a great comeback on the TV screens, debunking all the dark fan theories about the cute little bunnies.
Meanwhile, Netflix offers a new animated series from the creator of Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup – the well-known kids’ TV show, The Powerpuff Girls. The series, Kid Cosmic, is a ten-episode run that follows the adventure of an imaginative and enthusiastic boy becoming a superhero.
This could be a great show for those who love adventures and animations, like Max and Ruby.
