Gantz, Watership Down, Animal Farm, Super Jail, and Urslua looks like my father's mother, whom I hated, so I freaked the fuck out when my mom brought that VHS he.
Pretty much any British children's animation from the seventies.
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
Ren & Stimpy
Bible Black.
that's just porn
cartoon porn is still a cartoon.
can't argue with that.
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
Bible Black and Gantz
Muran Buschstansangur
For me it was probably The Head.
I really liked Duckman as well.
Also, the early Beavis and Butt-Head
True classics, haha.
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.
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.
Quads was fucking wild. I remember watching it in between Undergrads and the Oblongs. The wonders of having both parents work night shifts.
Rocko’s Modern Life was a helluva ride
Rock was a favorite of mine. The nude beach episode really stuck out to me.
And his dog's name was Spunky, ffs.
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 ~~masterbation~~ milking episode
It 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.
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 was a kid in the 90's. It'd probably be easier to list the normalest cartoons. Like Doug.
Freakazoid, possibly. Or Toxic Avenger. Though the latter is more insane that they turned the original concept into something for kids in the first place.
The Last Unicorn. Runner up, The Rats of Nymn.
The Secret of Nimh is one of my favorite movies.
I thought that was "The Secret of Nickel Metal Hydride" for the longest time.
National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH)
I'm still not sure whether "Angela Anaconda" was real or a collective fever dream.
"hey what if we made a cartoon entirely about the revenge fantasies of a 12 year old girl?"
"Sounds great, make it papercraft too, just to make it extra unsettling"
"How about everything is in color except the peoples skin."
"Brilliant."
The crazy stuff on Liquid Television
Aeon Flux is still super weird 30 years later
cow and chicken
One of the shows that taught me English. And Dexter's Lab taught me French.
Dexter's Lab was dope shit. Deedee was such a a great antagonist
Omelette du fromage
That's all you can say!
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.
