Big Baby is a series of shorts apart of Cartoon Network Wedgies. It originally aired on Cartoon Network in 2008, and later aired on Boomerang in the same year.
This series along with Nacho Bear were the only two Wedgies series to have 7 episodes.
The intro starts with a black background featuring giant yellow letters reading "BiG BABY" and then showing Big Baby walking upon a red-orange background.
Overview[]
The series centers on a baby that is as big as an average adult. He helps people out in all kinds of situations almost everyday despite the fact that he doesn't exactly understand what he is doing most of the time and usually does everything out of curiosity. Two running gags in the series consist of Big Baby chewing on something at the end of every short and in the credits one of the characters is dressed up as Little Bo-Peep.

Big Baby is the main protagonist of the series. Big Baby's actions make him look like he knows what he is doing but he actually does not and does it out of curiosity. Big Baby never talks English and just speaks baby talk, although in Rookie Cop it is revealed that some people understand what he is saying, as when he spoke through the megaphone at a wanted criminal, the criminal said, "Alright, I'm coming out!" But most of the time no one does understand him.

In fact, he ordered a reserved driver when he didn't have anymore reserved drivers, so Big Baby entered the race.
