It's the Pokemon anime that perpetuates this. And the fact that aside from Adult Swim, there isn't really any animated television geared toward teens/adults.

The funny thing is, the muchmuchmuch greater majority of Adult Swim viewers are surreptitious teenagers. xD I've never met an adult other than my parents that watches Adult Swim.

I'd say more like Family Guy and stuff...
 
Humph, arguing over whether Family Guys is a cartoon or not? Geesh, if it uses animation, the more than likely it is a cartoon. Problem Solved.
 
That's not the point, Samme. It's a cartoon, yes. But I refuse to think of it as entertainment.

Oh, sure, let's all watch a bunch of idiots insult everyone and everything under the sun! What are they taking the piss out of today? Hitler? Or the Jews? Christianity? Or African-Americans?

I'm sorry, I don't see how such offensive 'comedy' can be entertaining.

There's a thing called taking a joke.

All humor is parodic. All of it.

Oh, right xD
I do have to agree with you there. I don't see how the producer of the show gets away with all the crude and racist insinuations and "jokes" while it still only being rated PG14...

The root of the problem is everyone thinking people are so impressionable. >_>
As if any kid at the age of 14 isn't going to know all that stuff, let alone be influenced by it.

I actually find it hilarious. Sure, some of the things said are offensive, but who cares? It's not like it singles out an individual object or group of people and constantly rips on them the whole show. It makes fun of everybody, and forces people to laugh at themselves, too.
 
I'm 14, I know that stuff, and it offends me. Maybe I'm just easily offended, idk. But I won't watch it.

(Except when I have no choice. Like when my Science teacher 'lets' us watch it because she cbf teaching us.)

Yeah, this.
Everyone has a different sense of humor. Some like parody. @~@
This is all-inclusive parody. :>

Honestly I think you are.

I don't think there's any comedy show that could actually offend me. @~@

EDIT: Yaoi's a naked ninja makin' sweet love with another male ninja. (lolwut)
 
Yeah, the idea of comedy is parodic. But I like comedy that makes fun of things like human nature, emotions, and other aspects of personality. Not just making fun of stereotypes and/or groups of people.

That's why I watch UKTV.

Well, if you think about it, people being ridiculous is a stereotype itself. :x
