Anyone else felt terrified by some cartoons episodes when you were a kid?
Why do I feel that every kids cartoon has an alternative scary world? From the Powerpuff Girls, Courage The Cowardly Dog to Ed, Edd & Eddy.
ITT: Let's talk about terrifying subliminal hidden message in shows for kids.
Courage the Cowardly Dog literally fucked me up, every other episode there was something terrifying happening (for a kid)
But I kept watching it because I legitimately was so worried for Courage and was cheering for him while hiding under 5 blankets.
we are in that world RIGHT NOW

Dunno how some shit made it onto the air. Hell, half of courage the cowardly dog was pretty fucked up by children show standards. But for some reason it was Ed, Edd and Eddy that scared me the most. The episode where Edd's stairs are taken away from him, the episode where the culdisac is replaced with wooden props. Idk, something weird about that show as a kid.

That fucking episode was fucking terrifying, I couldn't sleep for weeks after watching this episode, I even stopped watching the show for a while

The only thing scary about Him as a kid was the voice distortion. Courage had its moments. I have no idea how you could be scared of EEE, it was just consistently bizarre.

Both Ed Edd n Eddy and Courage had this vibe of profound isolation to them, which was especially jarring to me as a kid when you have certain expectations of how people usually live
Like how in Ed Edd n Eddy there are never any cars going by, how the action is always set in the area of the cul-de-sac, how there are never any adults around
The same goes for Courage, because the establishing shots of the farmhouse against the backdrop of the desolate prairie are just so stark. And of course the "town" is called Nowhere, yet you get a vague sense of a larger world that the farm house's only connection to is Courage's computer.
Those shows unsettled me too
>you're not perfect

That shit is disturbing as fuck
This fucking movie was the fiend of my childhood

I mean it wasn't that specifically but just the whole game... There was no point at which i felt safe no rest. It was just fucked in general and moved me in a different way from something like silent hill for example

There's a popular theory that the kids in the Ed, Edd & Eddy show are in purgatory, and that each of them is from a different era, ex. Ralph is a German farmer settler from the 18-19th century, Eddy died during the great depression, which is why he's so greedy.
