Half of that stuff was in syndication after school and the rest was on Nick. Ren & Stimpy was the only one that came close to being “dangerous”. Hell, Veggietales is about The Bible. Simply listing stuff doesn’t make it so.
- ethbr0 5y agoWe have different definitions of edgy. I consider a overtly Christian show about vegetables pretty edgy. In the sense of (a) who would have created that & (b) who would have broadcast that (even among Christian tv channels)?
- PhasmaFelis 5y ago> I consider a overtly Christian show about vegetables pretty edgy. When you say "edgy", do you mean "novel/creative"? That would explain the confusion. Definitions 3, 7, and/or 8 at Wiktionary are what we're using: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/edgy https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/edgy You seem to be using definition 2, which is not the common meaning today. The only shows on that list that are "edgy" by the everyday definition are Ren and Stimpy, I Am Weasel (a spinoff of Cow and Chicken, which was a straight ripoff of Ren and Stimpy's visual and writing style), and sometimes Animaniacs. The rest may have slipped an off-color joke under the radar from time to time, but it wasn't their main thing.
