You could do something similar Like controversial cartoon icebergs I might be biased because it's when I grew up but I do believe that te late 80s to early 2,000s were like The goldenTime for cartoons
Excuse me sir I have a request that you should put on a list if you ever make another one Buster bear why he was not canceled has been stripped from Warner Bros. official history because his animator McClure what is rumored to bet his staff if they didn’t turn their work in on time. He was also a World war one veteran and was called Scarface McClure and yes I do realize I’m saying his name wrong but it’s close enough. The people who won out in this competition to get the Warner Bros. contract were Hugh Harmon and his brother who later created merry melodies and Looney Tunes
I get its like an ice cold take but i absolutely despise the, "think about the children" logic that applies when it comes to adult media. Even if the Beavis and Butthead story were true, how the hell is it MTV or even the artist's fault that your child watched something like that.
I hate that narrative as well and to answer your question, the basic expectation is that society as a whole should care about raising each child as a community
@mirabletest I think all of us have a duty to watch out for the littlest ones in our society but not to the extent where we should censor art and creativity for fear that children see it. That falls on the parents or gaurdians (I get that you aren't arguing for that, dw!!)
@@MerriwynMoon life is a spectrum in everything, people take things in the good way, neutrally or badly, in everything. i know this, you have to explain it to them, not me.
@@mirabletest I feel like putting the duty of the “community” to raise children just encourages parents to care less and less. Absent parents are already an epidemic and it’s like the media encourages it with “kids content.” But on the other side of the rope, there are kids who are neglected and treated horribly day after day, and often rely on these shows to teach them kindness. It’s such a sad cycle.
@@mazarine_44 you're answering like you think it's a new thing but antropologically humans always grew in communities and hence have the same expectations...
I love that the people who made Beevis and Butthead not only knew their audience so well that they pre-emptively put a disclaimer saying that huffing stove gas is dangerous, but that they still added the scene in anyways.
I can't even imagine claiming a five year old was allowed to watch Beavis and Butthead. I was twelve when the show got really popular and I remember sneaking downstairs to try to quietly watch episodes when my parents were asleep, because I was absolutely emphatically not allowed to watch it.
I'm 43 and I literally had to get someone to smuggle a recording of it to my house because I couldn't watch it either. And I was allowed to alot of things, but Beavis and Butt-Head wasn't one of them
I remember watching Pucca as a kid a lot and I was too young to realized it was actual SA. I got surprised that Pucca was this low in the Banned Animation Iceberg
Honestly I never thought it was SA as a child. I always thought it was another show of the stereotypical "girl obsessed with boy" but thinking about it,yeah the trope aged poorly.
FR the second he mentioned Pucca it transported me back to the 2000's Jetix era. Neeeever thought it'd be banned because it was just "oh it's crazy love" type stuff to me at the time
thats why they call me youreverydayTHEORIST. ok cringe comment aside (i couldn't resist), when I read about the scrub me momma short, that was literally my first thought that came to mind. Felt super disingenuous for them to use "no complaints" as evidence of the shorts innocence when its CLEARLY RACIST. like WHAT
@@theorist it's a common tactic of companies with shady racial relations, even to this day, sadly. They'll fake ignorance by saying they got no complaints, usually either because of flat out lying or broadcasting it as exclusively as possible (ex: website exclusive PragerU videos that basically say the quiet part aloud)
It's much easier to be evil and vile when your face or when someone else's face isn't even in focus for the viewers. It's the same philosophy behind internet trolling, if they can't see me then it's easier to be evil.
omG YOU'RE RIGHT THE HISTORY OF CARTOONS DOES HAVE A VAGUE NONSPECIFIC MENTWL ILLNESS!!!! AMAZING RESEARCH!!!!! THAT'S EXACTLY HOW DA MENTAL ILLNESS WORKS!!!!!!!!
Pingu had all sorts of lessons for toddlers, “dont pee on the floor” and “clean up accidents” are def lessons im glad my kids learned hahah we watched so much Pingu ❤
@@optimusfan1007 depends on the age of the child, some children may be to young to understand a corralation between the pee scene and everything that happens after
I like that the character they got to replace Lance Armstrong actually looks like an anthropomorphic animal rather than a creepy, uncanny valley human with rabbit ears.
Except all the stuff he just guesses or makes up hahaha. It's entertaining, but idk if complete & concise is a complete and concise description. Example: the entire Redskull segment. 😅
I never found Pucca to be controversial at all, since the entire show is portrayed in such a silly and goofy way. A huge ton of anime that I watch have characters like that in some way, and considering how much anime I watch, to me it has become a pretty normal thing in animation
Yeah, even in Pucca universe I couldnt figure out if they were supposed to be Chinese, Korean or Japanese. Despite the cartoon did came from Korea, I reckon Pucca took place in a world where it's "Yeah, we are living in a silly anime reality."
@@PaizuruInsanal Fiction is fiction, I think it should be accepted no matter who made it nor who the target audience is There are a lot of male perverts in anime too, which I find not to be an issue
@@PaizuruInsanal i agree with you. more people should understand that neither situation is okay, even if it's played up for comedy. we definitely also shouldn't be excusing behavior like that simply because "it's anime"; the pervert trope is so tired and not really fun to watch anymore.
About the Pucca stuff there is a stigma around male victims, the SA of Men and Boys, and female abusers/assaulters and how it’s seen. A few examples - Arnold and Helga (Hey Arnold!) Timmy and Tootie (Fairly OddParents) Ed, Edd n Eddy and the Kanker Sisters (Ed, Edd n Eddy) Chowder and Panini (Chowder)
Man I remember Puca being super big here in latín américa. I specifically remember how teenagers replaced the word Puca with a curse when singing the theme song... which in my opinion, is the funniest thing ever cause you just have to replace C with a T and the song changes meaning completely
holy shit you just teleported me back 15 years, it completely went over our heads and probably cuz it was pretty cute and funny, us latinos are probaly worst than the show itself when it comes to jokes.
I remember watching The Grate MacGrady episode when I was a kid and it's one of my favorite episodes of Author still. It's really a heart warming episode to me. It's sad it was taken off the air cause of Lance Armstrong's appearance. Edit: I'm happy they remade the episode so that others can enjoy such a good episode.
Pucca was me and my mom's fav show when i was a kid, and we'd watch it any time it aired (don't remember when lol), so now learning that it ended up banned in Europe is shocking to me! Also, great video. Can't forget to say that lol
Pucca started off as a Korean animated eCard series, then branched into short silent 5 minute flash cartoon series on Vooz. I watched it online for years. I think Disney kinda ruined it by shoehorning in a larger cast of characters, making the characters talk, & extending the run time.
hearing about Pucca gave me whiplash. i loved the show (the original 2d animation and the 3d one) because it was silly and it made me feel like a little kid again. i was surprised to see it on the iceberg but after mentioning of the SA, it did just click. i never noticed it and i kinda wanna rewatch it and see what i missed.
@@Ranuyasha Of course you didn't. You were most likely a kid at the time you watched it. Most kids don't even know what that is, don't feel bad about not knowing though. Honestly I don't think the show was intentionally saying that SA was okay, it was just a poor joke of its time.
Someone may have already said this, but in regards to Kwarantined Krab, it takes a while to produce an animation and Covid wouldn’t have been a concern during the making of the episode. It looks like the episode was originally announced in June 2019 and delivered, completed, to Nickelodeon in January 2020, so even though the pandemic was just starting to ramp up when it was initially completed, the full scope of it wouldn’t have been obvious yet.
when you said Walter Lantz in the "Scrub me mama " cartoon i almost choked here if you guys dont know who was this guy, he is the creator or the Woody Woodpecker and he also helped Walt Disney to create Oswald the Lucky Rabbit (with would later after Disney lose the rights of the character force him into creating Mickey Mouse as a replacement to Oswald)
The reason that the SpongeBob quarantine episode was made is because it was made in 2019, and scheduled to air in 2020. It was just an unfortunate coincidence
Long-time subscriber here. I can't get enough of your chill, genuine, and kind personality. I've seen other RU-vidrs who would read off of a script with a boring monotone voice. Your videos, however, remind me a bit of the old Classic RU-vid but with the current RU-vid. I hope you continue making more fun (and somewhat) light-hearted icebergs like this in the future. It can be repetitive working on the same projects like conspiracy/disturbing videos. Keep it up, your videos rock!
Another cartoon series, Camp Lazlo, would have the same arguably strange plot about the mc finding a place to pee. This episode was allowed to air just fine and was drop dead hilarious like the rest of the series, not out of place one bit. I'm not exactly mourning too much for the bathroom plot episode when it gets shitcanned but broadcasting standards changing like the weather is always weird.
It feels kind of weird calling Pucca’s obsession SA. Idk, that made me a bit uncomfortable as someone who recently went thru it. Idk man. Might just be a me problem, but that’s kind of a serious allegation to make about a kids cartoon.
Some cartoons did had that weird trope of a woman forcing a guy to marry her Like in my life as a teenage robot Or the 3D Garfield cartoon series Twice with John aurbuckle Yeah weirdly common trope
One small critique I have is the Pingu one, it’s a kids show. Of course they’re gonna have lessons for kids, even if it’s ask for help if you need to use the restroom. It ain’t that deep when you think about it.
20:16 Nah, Spongebob episodes, as well as most animation, are typically made season by season that way the network can air them whenever they chose. This episode was made in 2018, it was just set to be aired in 2020, which was just an unfortunate coincidence. It was pulled somewhat last minute, leading to it still releasing on demand in Canada.
41:44 okay but this is the best thing about rocky and bullwinkle, thats what makes it so funny, its so damn out of pocket and random it leaves you in a state of fever-like shock that all you can do is just stare and cackle maniacally because WHAT?!
Given how long animation takes, Kwarantined Krab was most likely being worked on in 2019, not 2020, making it's release date an unfortunate co-incidence
I knew the Great Macgrady was banned, but I had no idea they reanimated the whole episode. I get why, cuz regardless of the type of character Lance is, it's an extremely important message to tell children. I just wish it had been done before the series switched to flash. The series original style brought into flash looks so off, I never cared for it. I know its cheaper and PBS funding isn't as good as it used to be, but man, such a great episode forced into such a stiff and awkward style because of one bad egg. Thanks a lot, Lance.
Don’t think Pucca is banned... Pucca aired on Jetix which was a famous TV channel back in the 2000s and even had a reboot on Netflix. The “SA” isn’t even really seen or depicted as bad nor have I heard of anyone complain about it- it’s depicted like in a fan girl way
Arthur, how dare you have banned media. That's it, you're grounded grounded grounded grounded grounded grounded grounded grounded grounded grounded for 1,300.000 years. Go to your room right now.
tbh it just cutting to the club being on fire with no context for what the hell beavis and butt-head even did is a lot funnier to me. idk it catches you off guard and leaves more to the imagination
The whole Bubble guppies situation was due to the fact that people started petitioning to stop watching tv shows like Nickelodeon during the time and people attacked Bubble Guppies and Paw Patrol due to the fact that those two show was the biggest positive influences towards police officers on that channel. Just like the "Defund the Police" theory, it didn't make much sense that those episodes was banned. Quick side note every episode of Paw Patrol was banned temporarily that had Chase the dog during that time frame.
No really, that's just echo chambers. Some horrific shit next to the rioting and White House raids as well as corruption in politics, misinformation, and the abuse of MeToo predicted by an unrelated video game like Metal Gear Solid 2 Sons of Liberty. Selection For Societal Sanity at it's finest.
@cohengamertv6548 When I mean temporarily banned, that's exactly what happened. For a month, they stopped showing paw patrol. Their "soft revamp" had those 2 or 3 episodes back. I know this because I had to explain to my 4 year old at the time why her one of her favorite shows stopped.
The thing about Kitchen Casanova is that cutting a finger off with a kitchen knife is more realistic than regular slapstick; like yeah, it was presented in a goofy manner (besides all the blood which i imagine was a big factor too) but it would be easy for a child replicate, which sets it apart from looney-toons type violence (a child would not realistically be able to get a hold of an anvil or dynamite and hurt themselves/someone else with it.) The reasons for a lot of censorship in children's media is that it'd be dangerous for a child with lack of common sense to try and replicate.
I remember as a kid seeing some of the old cartoons depicting darker skinned individuals as such weird amalgamations. I actually didn't see those characters as black people, but some sort of special cartoony animal similar to other loony tunes, they were just SO far off from being recognizable!
I think the super nova episode is very reminiscent of my personal experiences. I dealt with addiction and I do have bipolar. If you're on uppers and have bipolar your mania is wild worse than usual. So I could totally see this episode being a bit of both. Also fun fact, bipolar isn't just mania and depression, you can also have irritability and numbness, other feelings. It's just a matter of where your extremes are and if you have other mental illnesses. Like I have OCD too so irritable is a HUGE feeling for me. It's usually my dealings of irritability and mania. I feel like anyone who watches this video will appreciate my fun fact lol
Actually, Kwarantined Krab was announced back in June 2019 and was completed in January 2020. It was gonna air in the spring of 2020, but Nick decided to delay it due to the virus.
Im pretty sure the story behind the spongebob quarentine episode, is that animation takes a long time to produce, and so the episode likely started production well before the real world pandemic, and just got extremely unlucky with the time it finished and aired
I remember watching Kitchen Casanova a bunch as a kid, guess it wasnt banned here. What A Cartoon was my favorite show as a kid, but I do credit it as having most of my childhood trauma episodes. That includes the PPG episode.
Hello, I'd like to add context to pingu. It was aimed at very young kindergarten or preschool children, so the importance was helping children learn about potty time. There's tons of toddler and young child books that assist them in learning toilet traits! I watched pengu as a kid and I remember the episode, nothing weird about it in my opinion since it fits in with the age setting. I dont ever remember it being banned but maybe I had seen it beforehand.
I used to watch the Mask animated series all the time as a kid. I also vividly remember watching that Dial M for Monkey episode back in the day, it's wild it got banned
What amazes me about Scrub Me Mama was that they still made a couple of the black women attractive. Even their hatred for other groups of people couldn’t outpace their predatory behaviors.
Man I’ve never felt so offended in a show depicting black stereotypes, its more racist than that TV kids thing saying “we got to celebrate our differences”.
as a latin american, finding out that pucca was banned and there is US People that can even get a grip on what this was is so shocking, it was a very iconic show overol here, it's very very popular
22:32 You gotta do a little bit of research my guy... You're literally just throwing out guesses you've come up with after skimming thru half an episode of the cartoon, and the Captain America movie you obviously didnt pay attention too...Redskull has been a part of Hydra since the 60's Disney didnt create that... and they still clearly refrence nazi's and him being one in Disney's Captain America. He also directly references Hitler...
Yeah, that happened a lot. My dad works as a freelancer, and was just starting a project where a sickness was the main plot… it had been in the works for a good amount before he had got it
HYDRA predates Disney and the parallels are there for a reason, HYDRA is literally just the "Nasties" in a world where said "Nasties" never really went away.. HYDRA is, obviously, safer for Disney etc to use but Red Skull and HYDRA itself are still very, very linked to the "Nasties", even in the Disney era.
i live in Europe and OH MY GOD I REMEMBER PUCCA?? it was on TV all the time when i was a young teen (i think it was on cartoon network? or fox kids/jetix??) anyways, damn, i didn't know it had become such an 'obscure' show :-0 thanks for unlocking that memory hahha and, as always: amazing video, thank you for researching this entire iceberg! it has been very interesting throughout! :-)
I think with the Rocky and Bullwinkle episode it's probably more likely it was pulled because it could've been viewed as making light of the Great Chicago Fire in 1871 that killed 300 people…
the pingu episode reminds me of the many dreams where i am running around franticly trying to find a bathroom and every toilet i see is completely loaded with waste and flooding until finally i usually either wake up or end up using a sink or something else to pee in and wake up needing to wash my sheets....thankfully this is a very rare occurence these days
that quarantine spongebob episode is literally "the gang gets quarantined" episode of always sunny. I was half expecting mr krabs to cover himself in hand sanitizer saying he just wants to be pure lol
2:53 But thats also a funny gag you'd see in shows like Chowder and Gumball where "Character attempts to do something but they're so bad at it that somehow the place catches on fire" and it jumpcuts to the building on fire
The hell one is a bit odd to ban, considering many other cartoons have done that setting, usually with more religious ties and death. That one was fairly tame.
Hey, keep making videos please! I'm a new subscriber, and I enjoy your voice, cadence, and dedication to facts. So please sir, you will get big, keep going!!!
The first few seconds i and I saw 'Scrub me mama with a boogie beat' 😅 that obvious why that cartoon would be banned, but i love the song, perfect to swing too 🎉
@@theorist I do also gotta say, you're one of my favorite RU-vidrs I've found recently. Very underrated. You give off such chill vibes and all your content is very enjoyable.
Please do more of these I'm born I. 1994 and I used to watch a lot of these cartoons even tho I was in Europe I definitely watched a lot of these banned ones too , keep up the good work
i remember seeing heff in a handbasket and kitchen cassnova as a kid the latter i seen multiple times and i remember rocko's modern life getting away with a tons of innuendos
Kwarantined Krab was probably in development ever since 2018 since it takes a while to animate episodes and of course, Covid 19 wasn’t a thing in 2018 so they probably didn't think there would be any problems with it. It was just very bad timing.
26:59 Omg I remember this episode! I've seen it on Nicktoons back when I was a kid! The idea this episode was banned is just so funny since much older cartoons like Tom and Jerry and Looney Tunes alluded to Hell and the devil on occasion and I don't think people batted an eye at that, even when those cartoons aired on Boomerang.
I actually remember kitchen Casanova from when I was young. It stood out because it was a short and I remember it being very different than everything else shown. I just didn't know the name of the short until now XD
In regards to the creatives and stuidos behind "Scrub me mama" being shocked at the cultural reception, i think its important to remember how much different the landscape was back then. A lot of these sterotypes were just viewed as representation by the people behind it because thats what they were exposed to, albeit filtered through a goofy cartoon lens. Hell, one of the infamous censored eleven, Tin Pan Alley Cats, was actually meant to be a tribute to several of the black jazz musicians of the time that Bob Clampet was friends with. Landscapes surriounding race were changing extremely fast back then, and some people just wrote what they knew.
The thing about The Kitchen Casanova only airing once and being banned after airing is false. I definitely remember watching it many times as it would be reaired on the What a Cartoon Show. In fact I remember watching it one time with my siblings and dad, and my dad found it to be so disgusting that when it was airing again, he changed the channel. It wasn’t the finger cutting scene that grossed him out, more so as it was the stuff with the guy and his gal eating different animal parts and the innuendo
I remember seeing it multiple times as well, I thought it was just really weird. I found cat short more disturbing, tbh. "Buy one, get one free", I think it was called. The one where the guy loses it, snaps at his girlfriend and beats the hell out of his cat near the end of the short.
@@captainbanjaxavalanche4313 I remember that one too. Yeah it was very disturbing seeing the guy abuse his pet cat, but at least he got arrested at the end
Honestly, for me, the fact my favorite topic of banned episodes are the ones from Disneys side of the pond lol. I remember seeing the Lightyear and Darkwing Duck episodes on YT back when it was kinda okay to upload episodes on here (by parts!!!), not really being effected that much by them.
also about the racist one: segregation was commonplace and on the rise in the 40s. theaters would've been the same. i don't think many black people would've seen this film, another reason why it was probably really hard to talk about :(
I mean to be fair, neither Looney Tunes or Tom and Jerry even had a single hint of bloodshed in them, unlike the actual finger cutting in that kitchen cartoon.
It's odd seeing that the Darkwing Duck episode is banned because it has the devil and hell. Even though they have shows and movies that has demons and the freaking devil and aren't banned.
i feel like after the 2010s, people just started getting so freaking sensitive that kids cartoons cant be kids cartoons they have to censor so much that the cartoon isn't even funny or fun to watch
I remember the Pucca series as a kid! I never knew what happened to it but I do remember it was basically the “obsessive crush” trope. It was very lighthearted though, very silly and goofy (not that the trope is good or has aged well at all or that i even agree with it). I’m just pulling what I remember from it.
To be fair with the whole Lance Armstrong thing, is it really cheating if everyone else in the race also did it? I mean if everyone juiced up and he still made first wouldn't that still make him the best of that group?
Bro the first one is a perfect example of bad parenting. It’s not the show’s fault your kid set the trailer on fire. It’s your fault for not watching the kid and letting him play with a lighter in the first place.
@@azimochaa mfs when 2 women hug: 🤬🤬🤬 If these cavemen REALLY cared about the kids, they wouldn't be banning LGTBQAI+ stuff. They would be making laws against child abuse and exploitation and put abusers in jail for life.
I must be getting old, when my thought about the Pengu episode was "That toilet setup looks nice... Better hope the toilet doesn't need to be fixed at some point, though... 0.0"
Disney wasn't involved in the first Captain America movie, that was still under Paramount. Avengers was the first movie in the franchise distributed by Disney. And that movie didn't hide the Nazi connections at all, they make several references to it. The later Captain America movies, the ones by Disney, don't mention it, but they also don't involve Red Skull at all until Infinity War, which doesn't mention it at all.
Iirc, Hydra was always meant to be an offshoot of the Nazi party. I'm pretty sure how they handled Hydra in the first Captain America film was pretty close to the comic, but I could be wrong. Edit: George Floyd's death wasn't an accident. It was a murder.
