I love them all but its like, how did this shit get on TV and then anywhere near children lmao. Thank god they found their respective ways to us.
Edit: if its only one, try to post a thumbnail image so people can either try to recognize it or know if the animation style is for them
Calabash Brothers ( the original from either the 70s or 80s, can’t remember which decade ). Still looking for the series that came after ( and also the 2010s version ) with ENG subtitles just to see how insane they are in comparison.
Original contains death in a couple different ways at least, and some weird scenes like one of the characters losing their powers by essentially having magic strike his eyes or 2 characters that look like minors ( but probably aren’t ) getting drunk and passing out off of magically conjured wine.
Courage the Cowardly Dog is crazy
Ren and Stimpy Aeon Flux
Venture Brothers beats them all.
Those guys are hilarious. Everyone should buy their DVDs/BluRays and enjoy their commentary (but not on first viewing).
Freakazoid was unhinged and spastic in a way I haven’t seen since
I’m only aware of Brak as a character on Space Ghost Coast to Coast, but if he has his own show I’m gonna find it!
Also how about the Venture Bros, especially with Patrick Warburton’s homicidal Brock Samson.
I’m surprised no one has mentioned Rocko’s Modern Life yet
Nu Pogodi is goated
Aeon Flux (the anime TV series, not the movie)
I want to say it was aired as part of the Def II, teenage audience program slot on BBC2 in the '90s, the original UK home of Ren and Stimpy and The Fresh Prince of Bel Air, but the Wikipedia article for Def II doesn’t mention it at all.Edit: Nope, it was Liquid Television (see reply). Some but not all of MTV’s weird programmes ended up on BBC2, sometimes even under the original parent name, like Liquid Television.
As I recall, aeon flux started in the United States on mtv as part of its “liquid television” block in the early 90s. Back when the station was owned by viacomm, same as Nickelodeon. It shared several voice actors with Rugrats too
Ahh, Liquid Television. Thank you. The other block of odd programmes that ended up on BBC2. It’s been a long, long time, so I’m not surprised I mixed them up!
Duckman.
FL*CL, which is unhinged but not in a sick leaning manner, it’s just really weird.
Drawn Together
That was real?? I thought it was some fever dream from when I had chickenpox.
– Ren & Stimpy
– Ed, Edd and Eddy
– Cow & Chicken
– Courage, the Cowardly Dog
– Animaniacs
Ren&Stimpy had some gruesome stuff. Courage was more on the horror side.
Invader Zim
More organs means more human!
Can’t believe I had to scroll down this far to find this one
Hokuto No Ken, not because it’s particularly unhinged but because in France it was programmed in the morning cartoon segment with dragon ball etc… it was so out of place that the dubbers had an obligation to tone it down in the translations and add jokes and puns.
It went about as well as you would expect, just a layer of absurdist humor on top of the ultra violence and gore…
Ren and stimpy
Was gonna say, some of those close-up shots are not for children
It’s wild how many episodes have been edited or removed from circulation due to their content.

Where can we get the raw footage! Those episodes were awesome lol
The high seas.
Oh, my beloved ice cream bar! How I love to lick your creamy center!
[talking to a bar of soap]
You’re not like the others. You like the same things I do. Wax paper… boiled football leather… dog breath!
We’re not hitchhiking anymore! We’re riding!
That one episode where Stimpy births out a fart and has to raise it comes to mind.
