Ren & Stimpy
For me it was probably The Head.
I really liked Duckman as well.
Also, the early Beavis and Butt-Head
True classics, haha.
Rocko’s Modern Life was a helluva ride
I was amazed at the shit they were allowed to play in the after school block on Nick/CN sometimes. Rocco might take the cake with the
masterbationmilking episodeIt wasn’t originally designed for kids, and it really shows with the pilot episode. It had swearing in it and most of the jokes would go over kids’ heads. Certainly went over mine until I re-watched it as an adult.
Just stare into Really Really Big Man’s Nipples of the Future.
Rock was a favorite of mine. The nude beach episode really stuck out to me.
And his dog’s name was Spunky, ffs.
I thing Dutch people from my generation have you all beat:
Purno de Purno (porn pun very much intended)
A psychedelic cartoon about a funny guy in spandex that has a shitload of nudity (tits, penisses etc) to the point of him even crawling in the vagina of a giant lady in space. It has references to litaral drug use. Have a look here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4o6MIJ7Iq1U doesn’t matter if you know the language, just browse through. That episode is called ‘In het hol van de kietelaar’ which translates to ‘In the clitoris’ lair (hole)’
This was on kids tv. Nobody got seriously harmed by it. It was funny and weird, but you don’t really register exactltyy how weird it is untill you hear about sensitivities on US TV (nipplegate lol)
looks like it was animated on an Amiga
Yup it was made on a Amiga 2000
cow and chicken
One of the shows that taught me English. And Dexter’s Lab taught me French.
Omelette du fromage
That’s all you can say!
Say it again!
Dexter’s Lab was dope shit. Deedee was such a a great antagonist
Catdog is quite similar in terms of “aesthetics” and craziness.
I worked for the company that made that. Crazy shit
Can’t believe no one has said it… Looney tunes.
You have a point. In this thread, we’re biased towards relatively more obscure cartoons, yet Looney Tunes practically invented the hyperactive uber-crazy cartoon.
Watership Down.
Was visiting relatives and we rented movies from a tiny video store that didn’t have a lot of options or kids, so we got that and Crocodile Dundee.
Dundee was fun. The bunnies were less so.
Watership Down was what traumatized me on seeing blood in cartoons. Cartoons and blood just…dont mix.
My husband is still scarred by that one.
Duckman, though that was not for kids.
Ren and Stimpy and Rocko’s Modern Life both had stuff that was bizarre and only allowed in a kid’s show because it was over their heads.
Batman TAS and Gargoyles both had some heavy shit. The latter also had a guy die by having fire erupt from behind his eyeballs, and a scene where a surgeon explains a gunshot wound in visceral detail. God I love that show.
If you like weird old SF books, the guy who wrote TAS and Gargoyles (RIP J. Michael Reaves) did a space-noir called Darkworld Detective, it’s pretty good. Obviously unrelated to Batman though.
Did anyone watch Liquid Television?
Was Attack of the Killer Tomatoes real or did I dream that?
A series of movies & a Saturday morning cartoon show.
Either it’s real or we’re both from the same alternate universe.
Where there’s a cornucopia in the fruit of the loom logo.
The original sonic cartoon is like a chili dog induced fever dream
You mean Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog? I love Robotnik in that show!
Yeah that’s the one, with the surreal desert backgrounds like krazy kat comics
I’ll have to take a look at Krazy Kat
Will check out
Ren and Stimpy
Beavis and Butthead
Love B&B, still traumatized by the Ghost Fart from R&S
Here they aired it at night, when not much else was there to watch. In my teenage years I was always hoping for some kind of erotic scene, but I was only left with confusion and switched the channel.
The oblongs, ripping friends, Ren n Stimpy, I r baboon were some of the best. Drawn together was a gem too that came out when i was a teen
When I was like, 2? My parents were like “Hey! What’s this new cartoon? Let’s take the kid to the drive-in!”
Fritz the Cat:
That was the maybe original. Always loved how the cops were actual pigs
How did they react afterwards …?
I don’t really remember, I was 2, but I’m told they kept pushing me down in the back seat. LOL.
Wait, so that means they stayed and watched it?
Once you’re in the Drive In, you’re kind of stuck…
Grave of fireflies
