I was just realizing how crazy and demented some of the old cartoons were.
Pigs is Pigs had Porky Pig strapped to a chair and force fed tons of food because he was fat and lazy.
Another one with Porky Pig called Wholly Smoke had Porky Pig being forced to smoke and chew tobacco because he spent his church money on a cigar.
A Three Little Pigs cartoon called Practical Pig had the big bad wolf strapped to a machine having his mouth washed with soap and spanked because he was lying.
Even Disney had Donald Duck as a nazi.
Man, we don't see cartoons like these today. Maybe this is why the baby boomers are all nuts.

I actually never got to see most of those cartoons when I was a kid because my mother didn't approve of them. I got to watch Herculoids, Smurfs, The A-Team, Jaana of the Jungle, Space Ghost and other cartoons like that. I still love those cartoons. A good sense of right and wrong and not all the "grey area" that we have in cartoons and comics nowadays.

I agree but I love watching them.
But to be fair, baby boomers are not nuts and really they didn't watch these.
If you mean the Merrie Melodies, etc, these cartoons were shown before movies, usually adult films during a time period when baby boomers were either not born or were very small (too small to be taken to the movies).

Are you kidding me? You must never have watched Family Guy or Beevis and Butthead or South Park? You think the baby boomers are nuts?!
