In the reenactment, Delinquent Doug crashes the class's history lesson, begins reading to the class from a girlie magazine called "Naughty Boy," and holds up what appears to be the magazine's centerfold (we only see it from behind) as the class gasps.

* Surprisingly, in Disney's ''Doug'', the word "sex" is said in the Christmas episode [the one where Doug's baby sister was born, not the WhamEpisode where Doug's dog is accused of attacking Beebe at the lake while ice-skating]-- the first episodes from the Disney series had a mini-arc where Doug's dad is trying to give his son the sex talk, only for Doug to tell his dad on the Christmas episode that he already knows about it from school. And in another episode, Guy observes a cartoon with donkeys in it by saying "Hmmm, a bunch of jackasses."
* Some of the last names sound dirty if you really think about it: Bone, Dink, Buttsavitch, etc. Though [[WordOfGod according to Jim Jinkins]], he actually had an elementary school principal by the name of "Buttsavitch."
** Even Patti Mayonnaise's last name could be taken this way considering some of the condiment's more, um, unconventional uses, and the fact that "Doug's Secret Song" is called "Patti, You're the Mayonnaise for Me" and contains lyrics like "Patti, you're the relish on my hot dog."
* In the episode where Roger's cat has kittens, he tells his mom that he didn't know the cat was a girl. She replies by telling him that there's a talk that they're long overdue for.
* During the Founder's Day Pageant in "Doug's On Stage", look closely; someone in the audience can obviously be seen drinking what appears to be an alcoholic beverage.
** Similarly, not too many other cartoon series aimed at 11-year-olds probably featured a scene in which the title character fantasizes about plying his teacher with pink champagne - even if it is for no purpose more nefarious than distracting her so that he can get back an unflattering doodle he made of her ("Doug's Doodle", Nickelodeon Season One).
** "Doug and the Little Liar": When Doug fantasizes about being a private investigator interrogating Loretta about her ability to speak Yakestonesian and asks Fentruck to testify against her, Fentruck appears at what appears to be a bar with bottles of all sorts visible behind him.



* The name of Dale's preschool is "Ding Dong Daycare".



* In "Doug's Christmas Story," Smash Adams offers martinis to Quailman and Race Canyon. Also one of the dogs in the "Very Bad Dogs" section of the pound is seen smoking a cigarette.



* There is an entire episode centered on Patti developing an eating disorder and while they don't outright say it's that, the fact that we see her imagining herself as fat when she isn't and it ''is'' stated that she's not eating enough speaks for itself.



* In "Doug's Babysitter," Mrs. Stinson refuses to let Judy read Creator/WilliamShakespeare because "the man had a dirty mind" (which is accurate given his references to CountryMatters among other things).

* There's a scene wherein Doug sees a lot of shoe commercials, and one of them shows a woman holding up a man's foot and saying, in a sultry voice "All my men wear shoes, or they wear ''nothing at all''". Taking it even further, the foot and calf she's holding up (along with presumably the rest of the male actor's offscreen body) suddenly become nude upon her saying this. [[MoodWhiplash Then]] she [[CrowningMomentOfFunny recoils with disgust in response to this]].

* The most blatant case of this was the episode "Doug's Minor Catastrophe" which is about a new snack called [[GRatedDrug "Nick Nacks"]] going on sale that turns out to have unpleasant side effects similar to that of real life drugs. To help drive home the point the product ends up getting banned from stores and Roger ends up basically becoming a drug dealer by selling Nick Nacks himself.

* "Doug Grows Up" from the Disney revival series has a moment that CrossesTheLineTwice so badly you'll wonder how the episode ever made it past the censors. Doug decides he needs to start acting more like an adult, so one night he comes down to dinner dressed in a suit and referring to his parents by their first names. He then asks his mom what's for dinner, and proceeds to ''smack her ass'' before telling his dad he married "A real fine lady." Phil, Theda, and Judy are appropriately shocked speechless.

* "Doug: Mayor for a Day" does this in the form of an OverlyPreparedGag: Doug helps save Mr. Swirly's ice cream factory by telling him to let an onslaught of chocolate chip ice cream hit their cooling fan, not only stopping their ice cream from melting but creating a batch of chocolate swirly in the process.
