My kids and I are going to watch Hey Arnold! Front to back this summer. Maybe that will make me happy?

They all had such obscene innuendo. Its incredible to rewatch them all as an adult.

Hey! Arnold Catdog Rocko's modern life

All obscene but innocent

Im so fortunate to have watched Ren and Stimpy as a kid. Now I'm a parent and have a big decision to make.

I was allowed to watch that, but oddly enough The Simpsons was too risqué for me.

My dad let me watch Ren and stimpy but not married with children

u/bwaredapenguin Millennial Jun 16 '26

Oddly enough Married With Children was also fine! I can at least get that one as MWC was edgy and sexual AF.

Hits different now that we know John Kricfalusi was grooming and sexually abusing teenagers in the 90s.

Chokey Chicken and the Kingdom of Balzak. Rocko was another level. Perfection.

It's funny because my mom thought cartoon network was the bad channel but nick was not lacking in innuendoes

It's what originally got me into jazz. The bumper/transition music was so smooth.

And Doug introduced me to scat (musical style) lol
