Which one is the worst for screwing with young childrens sense of self? We don't watch MTV(used to when I was much younger in the 80s). We do watch the Disney Channel & although we enjoy some of their shows I'm sick & damn tired of watching their barely teenage stars in their videos acting like their all grown up & singing about their romantic problems. They're kids for cryin out loud! They shouldn't even know what a relationship other than a friendship is. AAAAAARRRRGGGGGGHHHHH! I do love Spongebob!

The way the Disney Channel is going, Sponge Bob will be a birth control device.

Disney is pre mtv. My kids watch disney for the cartoons in the morning. The rest of the programming is soap operas aimed at kids. MTV has been sh*t for a long time.

Whatever you do, don't turn on Nickelodeon after 5pm. It is like teenage hormone central! They have a reality show called Boys Vs. Girls or some such thing, and the commercial shows two kids who probably just sprouted pubic hairs making out like mad! Huh? I thought Nickelodeon was supposed to be a kid's station. I am so glad I am not a kid these days.

ABC family chanel is not family either.

and to think they actually censor the old warner bros cartoons

No more Speedy Gonzalas, no more Wylie Coyote blowing up

They both stink! I prefer Boomerang!

Walt must be spinning in his grave. Dirty movies, profanity everywhere, material that isn't fit for mature audiences, etc. etc. And "children's" movies full of bad words??? We bought Shrek for our grandchildren, only to find Eddy Murphy's profanity and off color "humor". Whatever happened to Buggs Bunny and Daffy Duck? And letting children be children? If i live to be 200 . . . . .

Disney "would be" "DISNEY" if they had an ounce of Walt's decency ! but they don't!

I'm with you on that tuck ! i'd hate to hear what Walt would be thinking of the programs they put on nowday's.

as for MTV ? when it first came out it was great ! live in-concert videos and classic rock-n-roll music.

now it's all about rap most of the time!

even VH1 has gotten so bad i hate watching it.

i'll stick to the country channels for videos and music on T.V.

I know what to expect there!

Both should be blacked out!

...hey, sponge bob is like full of gay innuendos

Would you BELIEVE that dozens of these episodes were banned from broadcast becasue of violence, racist content, etc??

I had been looking for "Hillbilly Hare", probably my favorite episode for years and could not find it anywhere. I finally found a video file on a download site under "Banned Cartoons".

I love bugs........I hate almost all new cartoons.

A year or so ago Cartoon Network ran all but 4 or 5 Looney Toons in a 48 hour marathon. I wish I'd had a pvr then. The only ones they wouldn't run were the WWII propaganda 'toons. They probably won't ever do that again.

bearshare.com has many of those WWII toons if your are interested.

Some are pretty racy, with the old "blackface" comedy. Some are pretty derogatory with regards to the Japanese, but then again, we WERE at war with the Japanese at the time.

I don't have a problem with these being "banned" from TV.

The ones that were banned because of their "violence" are really good though.

How things change.

Song of the South was a fond memory for me as a kid.

It's now banned.

yep.....Song of the South was a good one.

I remember our garde school librarian reading us Uncle Remus stories.

Where are you from tailgater......I'm starting to like you.....even though you are a Pats fan.

:)

Also, does anyone else think the cartoons today are pretty cheesey compared to the ones when we were kids? They had full body movement and facial expressions, now they have very little animation, mouth movement, etc. Sheesh!

The FCC censors must all be getting fat off of kickbacks or someone has a gun to their heads. I'm a kid at heart & love the old cartoons & some of the new cartoons. Haven't noticed the gay inuendos on Spongebob. Perhaps I'm just not that observent. Thanx for your comments!

For you fans of the Old School Bugs and Daffy, you can buy the Looney Tunes Golden Collection on dvd. A little too much Tweety (not that ther's anything wrong with that) for my tastes, but a lot of Bugs, Daffy and Yosemite Sam.

It is one of my 3 year old's favorite.

I highly recommend it. Especially when Bugs dresses up as a woman.

(I probably shouldn't have typed this. Too late now).

after the wabbit......
