Well, the cartoonis rated TV-PG (and it is said to be the revamped version of MADtv, which was rated TV-14 and not meant for children to begin with, despite its many Subverted Kids Show sketches, both animated and live-action), so a page like this is expected, but even by Cartoon Network's standards (if any) for PG-rated shows outside of [adult swim], the writers do manage to sneak some stuff in that makes viewers wonder/exclaim, "What Do You Mean, It's for Kids?!"
Speak and Swear on "Rejected Toy Story 3 Characters": "How the [bleep] should I know!?" Yes, they dropped an F-bomb on a kid's show. Granted, it was bleeped out, but still...
In "Big Time Rushmore," one of the costume ideas George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt, and Abraham Lincoln wear to create their boy band image are kinky, S&M-style leather attire. Abraham Lincoln is the only one who liked wearing his costume and when the four turn back to normal thanks to their fairy godmother Taylor Swift, Abe is the only one who keeps his costume.
Spider-Baby got away with a strong breastfeeding joke involving Mary Jane coming in to babysit.
Getting more specific, the scene has Mary Jane ask Spider-Baby, "Is someone hungry?" in a seductive voice, with the camera visibly zooming on her boobs.
And in "Fantastic Megan Fox" Megan Fox considers targeting Scarlett Johansson's eyes...just as the camera focused on her breasts.
Also on "The Fantastic Megan Fox," Scarlett Johanssen shrieks, "What the cuss?!" when the literally-depicted Megan Fox steals her eyes. Justified in that in the movie The Fantastic Mr. Fox, they use "cuss" as a substitute for all swear words.
In "2012 Dalmatians," the President cracks the joke, "We've all been condemned to eternal dalmatian." Think about what else you can be condemned to when dogs falling from the sky aren't involved.
"The Da Grinchy Code" had Indiana Jones's line, "I'll take this stick here/My Staff of Ra/And shove it on up/Your tiny Who-Kah!" with one of the Whos gulping and turning pale ( The Who-Kah was a Dr. Seussian machine).
The pumpkin in "Avaturd" looks like a breast. Especially after the doc cuts out a chunk, and it lands where the nipple should be.
The Juicy, Jr.'s fake commercial has a kid (who ordered the newest sandwich that makes life messy for him — his shirt gets stained, he gets blamed for keeping his room dirty, and a bully punches the kid after accusing him of calling him a bonehead) end up in jail for a murder he didn't commit. The burger at the end says, "Fresh meat!" and snickers, implying that the kid will get raped in prison.
They parody a lot of movies that are more suited for older audiences — that parody of Unstoppable mixed with Thomas the Tank Engine, The Bourne Identity mixed with Toy Story 3 (and a little bit of Inception), I Love You Man mixed with Iron Man, iCarly mixed with CSI: Miami...
They made a District 9 parody ("The Fresh Prawn of Bel Air"). Granted, it parodied The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air more than it did District 9, but the question remains: if MAD is supposed to be a kids' show, why the heck would the writers use District 9 for a parody?
The original animatic was supposed to have one of the prawns on a cover of Vanity Fair which had the words, "Sex" written on it over and over again. On the actual show, this was replaced with illegible scribbling. So actually, the word "sex" was supposed to sneak into every episode.
Another one: "S'Up", which is a mash-up of an innocent family-friendly movie (Up) with a very sleazy and very reviled reality show (Jersey Shore).
They also did a Two and a Half Men parody ("Two and a Half Man") that included a drunk driving reference (Charlie crashes his car into the house and belches), a bestiality reference (it's implied that Alan's son is from his "summer in Narnia"), several moments of Toilet Humor, and Charlie hitting on an ice princess with the line, "Wanna see my vuvuzela?" It also helps that the episode that had this sketch aired around the time that the real Charlie Sheen was once again making the news for being a train-wreck.
Considering how often they do it, they know. They're just in a contest with the crew of Regular Show to see who can get the most blatant crap past the censors.
Seth Green: If I can't have the '80s, no one will!
The parody of "Hop" ("Hops") got away with a drug joke: when the officer confronts E.B. at a party (held by a badly-drawn Bugs Bunny), the Trix rabbit is shown frantically trying to flush cereal down the toilet in the same way a drug addict (or dealer) would flush his stash down the toilet when the cops come.
In "Naru-210", Naruto uses his woman transformation with Censor Steam and a bystander points out that another guy's nose is bleeding.
Even more shocking is the fact is when Naruto aired on Cartoon Network, the nosebleeds were actually removed, leaving any kids who watched Naruto confused.
Meredith says she's got just the thing for Rogue in "The Clawfice" after Rogue tries to absorb her persona and becomes depressed.
Near the end of the Hannah Montana vs Justin Bieber parody.
Elvis: "Abort! Abort!"
Other Guy: "What does Abort mean?"
Elvis: "Give up on Plan A, go to Plan B!"
A female Belieber confuses Miley for Bieber and tries to kiss her.
Fireworks come out of Katy Putty's breasts in the "Flammable" sketch, but that also happened in the "Fireworks" music video they parodied.
There's also the rather violent ways the paper woman and the clay man were burned (not the Sesame Street-esque muppet man; he was singed rather badly, but he was rescued in time by a pair of live-action hands with a fire extinguisher) and the implication that Katy Putty is a pyromaniac.
During a small thing called "The Best Thing Ever", you see "BAMF". It stands for "Bad Ass Mother Fucker. No, really.
In ThunderLOLCats, while filled to the brim with internet memes, managed to make the Sword of Omens part dildo◊. This is further supported by the fact that the original animatic doesn't have this makes its inclusion even more deliberate. Score!
Even better, when King Claudus is stabbed by the disguised Troll-Ra, he utters "Samoflange", which is a reference to the rather explicit outtakes from the original Thundercats.
In the skit "Aye Carly", after Carly and Sam are killed by bulls, Freddie puts on wigs resembling their hair and does their intros, followed by a remark of "I'm confused." Now what could a teenage boy dressed partially in drag possibly be confused about. Think about it.
And in the recent episode Ape-Prentice, look closely at Caesar.
