I am so discusted with cartoon network, I watched scooby doo as a kid watching it on cartoon network is like watching smut. Daphne and Fred are out right with sexual inuendos, Velma is making out with shaggy (WHAT) and nothing seems to be changing, I am a mom and refuse to allow my son to watch this. What happened to good old fashioned cartoons, where the cat chases the mouse, but the mouse always gets away, or where Fred, Daphne, Velma, Shaggy and Scooby were just a mystery solving gang, and not an inappropriate orgy waiting to happen. I am So peeved and cant believe that this is happening and that more people are not complaining to change this. These Big companys that used to provide kids with education and fun, are now making sex there #1 job to sell. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH, My child and no other child should be subjected to such discusting filth just to earn a buck...

Hello, I am a Junior in high school, and I am currently doing a speech for my schools competative speech team about this issue. I am STRONGLY in agreement with you, please post some inappropriate quotes from these shows. Once I finish the speech, I'm taking it to the white house. The media (TV and MUSIC) either needs to be censored, or the kids shows should be marketed to adults. Please help!

Cartoon Network used to show fun retro programs. I enjoyed being exposed to the generations that came before me. There were fun shows, including the Snorks, the Smurfs, and Clue Club. A lot of shows are Cartoon Network are becoming more inappropriate for children. I'm glad I was born in the 80s. Let's turn back the clock when it comes to TV programs.

I got on there to play the games, and discovered there are about 1, 001 code problems, such as the fact that viewing your "badges" (their trophy/achievement system) is impossible (the button you click takes you to a user profile, rather than your badges) and your profile itself is inaccessible through most links on the site (the links are all improperly coded).

Cartoon Network is a "CARTOON NETWORK" not a "family network" or a "kids network." There seems to be this stereotype in the U.S. and most western society that cartoons or any form of animation is only meant to appeal to children. This was never true. Cartoon Network appeals to everyone who like animation. Both young and old. The less serious and graphic shows are aired during the day while the more graphic and mature content in the evening and late night. They follow the same practices that any other network does. Just like any live action television program parents should supervise and pay attention to the content in cartoons as well. If you want you young ones to view cartoons that only appeal to young children and are only rated Y or Y7 then go to a kids/family network such as Nickelodeon or Disney.

When my child was young on Cartoon Network, The TV shows were wonderful. Dexter, Alvin and the chipmunks, POWERPUFF GIRLS, Fosters home for imaginary friends and lots more!...But now, Cartoon Network shows horrible Shows. The only on i think is "ok" Is Adventure Time. I want the old shows back. People Sit and wonder why people are shooting people? Well look around because kids are playing violence shooting games and stupid shows like these wont help at all! Yes, help bullying stop! Yes, its not your job to teach our kids to stay away from guns but for the love of god, JUST SHOW BETTER TV SHOWS.

It bothers me that you don't even have to wait until late night to see smut on television. My oldest child is 18 (not a child anymore) but we used to watch cartoon network all of the time. I liked it better when they didn't see the need to put Adult Swim on the network at night. Even though kids aren't usually up late enough to see this stuff, sometimes things happen and kids do see this stuff. A network called CARTOON network is playing shows (not even cartoons sometimes) that are so horrible and disturbing that even adults shouldn't watch it. They play absurd crap even before adult swim. What is this network thinking? This stuff should have a network of it's own. A paid network that doesn't have the word "cartoon" in it. That attracts kids. DON'T attract kids to this crap. Yeah, my kids will be learning things such as sex as they grow but I don't need some network twisting it up and making it confusing. I have and will teach them the way it needs to be taught, tastefully and truthfully. I, and I know many others, refuse to watch this network anymore. I hope their network fails miserably.

I agree to an extent. But the good news for any and all concerned parents if you like me prefer the older material that CN used to show. WB is putting out them in droves. On DVD you could get alot of the classics you loved and can share with your kids instead of the ones they show now. CN's distribution and target audience really went downhill from 2004 onward. But it has it's ups and it's downs. And thankfully the people at WB know how much a lot of us would rather have the older shows, and thanks to DVD those dreams are coming even more realized each year.

People seem to think that the cartoons today are much more inappropriate than what was once watched. It is not that they are more inappropriate it is that we are at the age where we are understanding the sexual innuendos and really noticing the bad behaviors of cartoon characters . When we were children we didn't understand the jokes the same way your children will not understand them! Kids watch cartoons and only really take in the bits and pieces that they can understand. Children have not just became more advanced and suddenly understand these things. If those shows would not have been called inappropriate in your childhood, why are they now? They should be able to watch them for their entertainment and maybe one day in their teen years they may see what you as parents see. But as of right now all of this just goes over their heads so just let them enjoy themselves and watch fun cartoons!

And the imagine shown by jen98 in a fake image, if you would like to see the actual scene in which the picture is depicting, the character that is shown naked is actually fully clothed. It is illegal to show nudity in children's cartoons. That image was obviously to provoke those reading this and that should not be used to represent that show due to it's authenticity. If you would like to judge a show, judge it by actual content.

I am a kid who loves cartoon network but its kinda get boring and annoying to just keep seeing the same thing over and over again like Teen Titans Go its mostly all over cartoon network.What happen to the good old shows like the actual Teen Titans.Or how about Steven Universe or Ben 10 I barely ever see Adventure Time anymore also.Even my brothers and friends agree with me.I say you should make a few changes if you ever want us to start watching cartoon network again.As if right now were going to stop watching cartoon network until we see that it has been changed.
