Reliving Childhood

So i was hanging out with a few friends this afternoon, and we decided to watch some old nick shows. The first show we watched was Rugrats. Re-watching them i realized that each episodes theme revolves around some aspect of society, such as the criminal justice system, the hidden identity of celebrities/icons, and even potent historical facts. Rugrats was not the only show that we ended up watching though. Afterwords we also watched a few episodes of Rocco's Modern Life. Until now, I never realized what actually slid into the show that young children would never understand, such as Cougar-ism, cheating on one's spouse, and so on. I suggest going back and watching some of the old cartoons that we watched as kids to see what they are actually saying. A few shows are on netfix instant watch. The title links to the cite.
