Whoops sorry not a cartoon
 
Thought of another: Fanboy and Chum Chum. It has no substance whatsoever
 
TV doesn't have that kind of influence on kids, it just gives them their creativity.
If kids watch cartoons during their entire freetime, it's not the programs fault they don't learn anything. It's the neglect.
Every evening I watched Winx Club, South Park, Simpsons, whatever and I was still fine because I spent 2 hours on that and 2 hours with my family and actual hobbies like drawing, writing and just going outside with friends.
If you don't want to expose your kids to violence, cursing, whatever - fine, but don't act like it's a cartoons job to raise kids.
Dumb cartoons aren't going to make your kids dumb. Violent cartoons aren't going to make your kids violent. Just talk to them.
 
I don't believe there's anything that "kids shouldn't watch". What exists are irresponsible parents, and shows that need proper context from an adult for a kid to process.

While obviously what a child can handle depends almost entirely on the individual child, what most children need to handle almost anything is an adult in their life who cares enough to be present to put things in proper context. Someone there to explain the differences between fiction and reality, when things like violence are justified or should be avoided, etc.

Children are tomorrow's adults. And they can handle a lot more than most people in the west seem to give them credit for. You simply have to give them a chance, and when needed, guidance.
