Why do adults still like cartoons?
140406
The humor in cartoons, even in old ones like the Flintstones and the Jetsons have humor written into them that only an adult would get.\n\nWhen I rewatch cartoons (and shows from the 70s for that matter), I see a lot of humor that I completely missed when I was a child.\n\nCartoons like Family Guy, King of the Hill, Simpsons, etc... (let us not forget South Park and Beav... yeah let's forget them) are written FOR adults. It's the humor as much as it is the "kid inside us" that makes them great.\n\nNow if you are still loving Sesame Street and Blue's Clues (especially since Steve is gone) then you might want to get professional help!\n\nJust Kidding.\n\nKeep on watching those cartoons!

I'm 36 & still love them classic cartoons-looney tunes, pink panther,.... -most of them funny cartoons I grew up to from the 60's & 70's. My favorite game show is "Whammy!"-but I haven't seen it in yrs.

I'm older than you and I watch them sometimes.  Mr. Rogers is one of my favorites.\n\nI prefer shows for children to some of the inappropriate shows that there are on TV.

I'm 30 years old, and I still love cartoons and kid shows.  I watched Mister Rogers this morning, matter of fact.  I think that if you consider yourself too old to do something, that's the point when you are beginning to age.  If you like kid shows, then watch them.  It's harmless fun.  If anyone gives you any crap for it, that means that they are so unhappy in their own lives that they have to pick on other people to make themselves feel better.\n\nBTW, my grandpa watched cartoons and kid shows until the day he died.  He was 72, and he was one of the youngest, sharpest, brightest spirits I have ever known.

I remember "Jem" because my big sister watched it all the time.  It caused some arguments in our house since we had 1 TV at the time & I always wanted to watch something else.  I remember it didn't cause as much grief as that stupid "Saved By The Bell" garbage, though.  She made me miss a lot of valuabel cartoon-watching time over that show.\n\nAs for which cartoons I liked, there were quite a few of them.  I was a cartoon junkie.  "Transformers" was probably my favorite, though.

Bugs Bunny was created in the 1920's and was originally made for adults.  They were the first main picture shows and played in movie houses.  If you look at the bottom of the screen in the beginning of each cartoon, you can tell what year it was made.  Example: MCMXLII is 1942).  The best ones were made between the 40's and the 50's.  I have the collection and I'm a looney tunes lover.  I'm 34 and still watch them on Saturday and Sunday mornings with my kids.

This will sound funny but "Looney Tunes" is the answer for me.  They have always been politically charged without hitting you over the head with it.  I enjoy watching with my son now as much as I did as a child because there is humor there that only and adult can get.  Looney Tunes aren't all anvils falling from the sky.

there is nothing wrong to watch cartoon or anime. you need  them to release your stress. Different ppl have different thought so why do you have to care for them? just be yourself and care what you want. remember that you cant do anything they want,you just have to show them this is you and you love cartoon\n(^-^).

all the time sometimes enough time goes by that i dicover something new. Or find out how dumb I was for liking it in the past;Like full house. Its also cool to watch looney toons because when I was younger I liked it but know I find out there is so much adult comedy that its weird.

Family Guy is really funny, but it's got nothing on The Simpsons. Family Guy has to rely only on sexual innuendos for the most part. The Simpsons is hilarious on so many levels. It can appeal to kids, teens, and adults. It appeals to people who love political humor, religion, sports, and everything else. Many of it's jokes revolve around current events (e.g. gay marriage, immigration, education, etc.) so it will never get old. The Simpsons is no doubt the most hilarious show to get on television.

No way!  Cartoons are no way just for kids any more.  Some cartoons are catered to adults like: Darwn together, South Park, and many others.  \n\nYou are right that the craft of making cartoons goes unnoticed.  Tell them to go see Nemo, Shriek or somehting new that I haven't hurd of and ask them if they can't find the beauty in those illustrations.  \n\nCartoons also have "secret" jokes put in just for adults.  There is no way a kid would get that joke unless he's/she's got serious issues.\n\nHope that helps you!  Cartoons Rule!

Don' worry about is, Hon. I am 33, married with an 11 yr old son. My favorite cartoon is Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends. Don't let your friends dictate what and who you should like. All my life, my friends and family know who I am, and never tried to change me. If someone says anything about me watching cartoons even today, I just shrug my shoulders and say "I have always liked them." You will be fine, don't try to grow up too fast! (Right now I am watching Codename: Kids Next Door, the Christmas Episode)
