The GOOD 'OL or 'why cartoons now blow'

I have never watched an entire episode of Spongebob and have no plans of ever doing so. What I've seen hasn't appealed to me.

Ed_McCarron:
Speaking of MTV cartoons, I still get a kick out of Daria.

Rocko's Modern Life springs to mind when you say this. Half of the crap in that show would completely fly over the heads of anyone younger than 15. Looking back, I'm amazed at some of the things Nick let them get away with. I mean the super hero Really Really Big Man whose nipples were his main weapon ("Gaze into my nipples of the future!)? A restaurant named "Chokey Chicken" (though that was eventually changed to Chewy Chicken) in which a character "choked on his chicken"?? Episodes based around nudism? Good stuff. I watched every episode of that show I could as a kid. NONE of that would fly these days.


Also, wasn't there a few "unaired" (or at least one) episodes of Ren and Stimpy due to the sexual content? I heard gossip of such a thing a couple years ago, but never did hear anything past them existing.

I know Man's Best Friend was one of them. I believe it featured George Liqour.

Yeah Daria is classic.  I like it way more than Beavis and Butthead.  Pick up the first (and only) two seasons of Frisky Dingo from Adult Swim.  One of the greatest cartoons ever made.  The first episode is hit or miss with people (I loved it), but it's necessary to set up the story.  Watch at least the first two.  At only about 12 minutes a piece they're pretty easy to get through.
