And then came Family Guy, making the Simpsons seem like pretty mellow family fare in comparison.

'Was', heh. Bart makes delinquency look cool and in the 90s I personally saw a fair few young boys my own age emulating Bart and getting into trouble for it. I think the Simpsons is appropriate for teenagers, but not much younger.

    Certainly. Southpark made a name for itself by being a show kids really wanted to watch although/because their parents really didn't want them to watch it. It's been controversial since it first aired.
