Top 10 Most Insane Child-Warping moments of 1980's toons

Cough cough. hello! Irma? April pretty much had a platonic relationship with the turtles. Sure, a little touchy feely at times... well, more kissy kissy. But she clearly thinks of them (if you look back) as kids that come to her rescue a lot.

Now Irma.... beastiality and Robosexuality (New York's Shiniest) abound in her. I could do a whole article on what I think is wrong with Irma when it comes to men (let's say the word "easy" comes to mind quite a bit, not to mention her wacky low standards). But she clearly has something for the turtles on a level April could never match. After all, it was Irma that said, "I could kiss you guys... if you had lips."
 
For the syndicated series, Splinter was originally a human, although in the original comics (and the later 2K3 series), Splinter was always a rat who just grew bigger and more humanized through his mutation.

Whatever the origin, the fact remains that present-day Splinter's a rat, and cross-species lust of any kind is just plain creepy. :sweat:
 
Considering April has been a cat-woman, a wasp-woman, and a fish-women and even Irma has been a rat-women I think their concept of 'species' was a little blurred.

Then there's the issue of how beings that don't reproduce sexually (Transformers) have any sort of gender identifies; it doesn't mean they can't love it just that concept of love would be purely agape or philia and not eros.



Wait three decades and you'll probably be called a "speciest" and a bigot for that statement.
 
I have to admit...The My Little Pony and Care Bears moments they mentioned really did freak me out when I was younger. :sweat: The My Little Pony thing in particular, damn that was really creepy. XD
 
Yeah. I'll take toy based cartoon series over lame-a-zoid Scooby Doo and Archies knockoffs and Sitcom ripoffs anyday. At least Fat Albert and Hong Kong Phooey were memorable.

That said, remeber... this generation also had a lot of locally broadcast syndicated Looney tunes, Popeye, and that stuff. Nothing really warped me as a kid, and I watched quite a few warpable projects. heck, Sesame Street had some warped animation (Pinball Number Count and Jazz #___ especially).
 
While it may not be as 'creepy' as some of those moments listed above, I'll never forget the one-two punch of Roy Fokker dying in Robotech, which seemed like it was almost immediately followed by Ben Dixon. I was ten or eleven at the time.. cried both times, was choked up for like a week after that whenever i thought of it. Hard to believe they actually showed it on tv.
 
My Little Pony had a lot of... disturbing villains. Witches, mutant bees, sirens, demonic goats, lava demons, and in one case, a creepy old man with a furniture fetish.
 
After watching the clip where the Smurf's apparently kill a villain by singing, I must disagree. Their singing didn't kill him; it was Gargamel's high-pitched singing that did him in. Man, that was painful to listen to.
 
The Care Bears thing never bothered me as a kid... I always assumed she was just passed out or something :P I really think the first movie is worse. You know, the creepy book calling "Nicolaauuusss"? That scared me.

The My Little Pony thing did freak me out... especially when Tirac would sit on his throne, petting that bag that was thumping like a heart *shudder*

The high-pitched Smurf song did bother me a little, but I never made the "he went to hell" connection. I thought he'd just been sent far, far away, or was simply destroyed by the happy song.
 
It depends on the context you used it in. Gargoyles, Mighty Max and Animaniacs all slipped the word in, although in Dot's defense on Animaniacs, she was quoting Shakespeare.

Then there was an episode of 'The World's Greatest Superfriends' where Lex Luthor unleashed sun creatures onto Earth called Hellions or something to that extent.
