I really want a law that requires clothing sizes to include actual measurements. And it's insane that I would have to specify that these measurements must be accurate, but the clothing industry has made lying about sizes the norm.
There shouldn't be anything preventing me from figuring out women's bra sizes with a tape measure aside from the fact that I don't know them and they probably don't want a stranger obsessively measuring their boobs.
Duckman, though that was not for kids.
Ren and Stimpy and Rocko's Modern Life both had stuff that was bizarre and only allowed in a kid's show because it was over their heads.
Batman TAS and Gargoyles both had some heavy shit. The latter also had a guy die by having fire erupt from behind his eyeballs, and a scene where a surgeon explains a gunshot wound in visceral detail. God I love that show.
The Lion King is an experiment being run by the aliens from Close Encounters of the Third Kind. The music is diegetic and is used to modify behavior.
We know they can implant images and subconscious commands, and that this is perceived through music. That's why they can coordinate musical numbers on the spot, and why sudden changes in behavior and attitude are accompanied by music.
In particular, the most critical character change comes when Simba wanders off to be alone, sees a vision in the sky, and the soundtrack kicks in with an extended version of the alien music from Close Encounters of the Third Kind. Suddenly he's doing a 180 and running back towards his assigned role in the story.
IIRC, Troi mentions how the replicator makes the food healthier and at one point she specifically instructs it to not do that because she wants a real ice cream sundae even if it isn't healthy.
And Scotty can taste the difference between alcohol and synthehol.
Ground News because I want to see what's going on in news across the media spectrum and they make it a lot easier.
Discord nitro classic because I don't have a better alternative and I get the features I actually need at half the price I'd pay for the normal subscription.
A VPN because none of your goddamn business.
Rockets are literally on fire.
I love The Thing, specifically because it's smart and has great atmosphere. And as with Tremors, I like seeing people behave intelligently and adapt to try to overcome the threat, rather than just having people be idiots so we can watch them die.
That said, it goes way past the line for my SO, who makes less of a distinction between gross creature effects and violent gore effects. Plus, it's not like there isn't some fairly extreme violence as well. The defibrillator scene for example.
We both liked What We Do in the Shadows, but neither of us loved it. I've been suggesting giving the show a try but my SO is always a bit resistant to starting a new show, and the prospect of trying to squeeze a season into a limited time frame only has only made that worse. But it'll probably happen sooner or later.
Oddly enough I have seen that one. But my preferred version will always be The Shinning.
The mix of Lovecraft and Nicholas Cage has me both excited and terrified. Also, a short story about an otherworldly color that no human has seen before is an interesting choice for a visual medium that, you know, only has existing colors to work with. My TV has vibrant reds, yellows and blues, but it's octarines are a bit muted.
Yet another reason why I don't wear pants.
