Jeez I feel so sorry for today's kids. When I was a kid, I got quality cartoons. Sure, the animation by Hanna Barbera was typically primitive but at least people looked like people, and everything had a clean, unsullied look.
Contrast that to the utter, utter garbage that kids are watching today. Garbage that does not uplift or create heroes (like Spiderman or Superfriends) but degrades and panders to the lowest form of humor.
So I'm watching channel 40, the TOON channel, otherwise known as Cartoon Network.
So right now there's an octopus wearing Y-fronts, with fur or something all over him. Some kind of a rabbit, in underwear...indeed, they are all in underwear. All ugly.
The plot of this particular episode is apparently that the octopus, when afraid, ejects ink, (at least it wasn't feces) which turns into paintings that are valuable which the rabbit character can sell. So the rabbit spends the entire episode trying to scare the octopus into "inking" his pants, and finally succeeds at the end because he's scared of clowns.
What utter, utter, utter garbage.
Then there's the preview for Revenge of the Island - a bunch of teenage age kids on an island - drawn in today's way with large, square heads, and skinny bodies. One of them is trying to do a pushup, can't, there's a green mushroom cloud from his butt as he apparently farts... jesus.
Jee-sus!
