How did they get away with so many adult themed jokes? Were the censors sleeping on the job?

Steven Spielberg's clout probably helped.

Back then children's behavior was considered the parent's responsibility. So if a kid was repeating the adult jokes, even if they didn't understand them, it was up to the parents to stop them.

It was a different time. A funner time

I started rewatching animaniacs and was amazed at how much hilarity passed by me. I mean these jokes were pretty funny, better than family guy tiered humor.

How much you wanna bet they won't allow stuff like that in the reboot?
>>93148845
>Parental responsibility
Truly a barbaric age.

I hope they do allow it, it wouldn't be animaniacs without that sort of humor. it would suck of it didn't.

They followed the philosophy of sending a shit ton of crap they knew they could never get away with to the censors before sending what they really wanted to do. A lot of other series did it and probably still do. The problem is that censors are more uptight and wise to the trick nowadays.

Scattergun approach; they threw so many things in there that something was bound to hit home.
Plus a lot of the staff probably learned what they could get away with from their previous experiences from Tiny Toon Adventures.

0% chance, they will probably remove Hello Nurse and Minerva entirely.

Because we weren't sissys back then, so we just let this shit fly because kids didn't understand them.
>>93149956
true, a lot of shows were also made in mind of the parents. so that dad and mum could watch without being bored too.

>Nurse is there
>all curves are gone
>the guys just have an innocent crush on her

haha no... I would just hate to think if it'd be more pc. I hope to the highest power that they make fun of how dumb it is to be offended by everything.
>>93150509
A slapstick style kiss on the cheek is sexual assault nowadays. Truly we are in the darkest timeline.
>>93150600
yeah it has to stay in it's roots. pc culture is destroying whatever fun there's left.

>none of the girls have boobs, just like in nuppg
>>93149934
>They made a point to show how intelligent she actually is
>Shes just gonna get the Sarah Bellum treatment and get cut out of the show for being "too sexualized"
