I can't think of an specific example for myself, as I don't really watch TV shows regularly, but I wouldn't mind to watch a kids cartoon. Sometimes I do, even though I don't really apreciate it, I enjoy cartoons a bit more adult-themed.


I wouldn't mind a cartoon with mature themes, but most "adult" American cartoons are really immature and silly: Family Guy, Oblongs, AquaTeens, Sealab, and worst of all, Drawn Together. If this is what "adults" act like and enjoy, then I'm not sure I want to be one. Ugh.

Which is why I loved Batman: TAS and, well, pretty much everything in the Bruce Timm DCAU canon. It manages to be 'suitable for kids' without being stupid or insulting to adults. And you'd be surprised at some of the double entendres and semi-dirty jokes... (well, at least I was surprised...)

Hawkman: *staring at Hawkgirl's butt*
Hawkgirl: What?
Hawkman: Nothing. I just miss the dress you were wearing yesterday.
Hawkgirl: *wry smile* You didn't miss it last night.

Tala the Sorceress: (To Flash in Lex Luthor's body) Come darling, let us relax. You need your rest.
*two enter bedroom and door shuts*
Flash in Luthor's body: ...that's not restful!
