Thank you so much for watching! And I fully agree with you! It's very frustrating that even in today's time where Anime, Netflix, Adult Swim and Bojack Horseman/Simpsons/South Park exists, people seem DETERMINED to label animation as being automatically for children. Like... How many times do we have to teach you this lesson, Old Man????

Originally THE FLINTSTONES was aimed at an adult audience and so the sponsors were Winston cigarettes and Miles Laboratories. They were not FORCED to stop advertising Winston cigarettes. Because the show was attracting a family audience, ABC brought in family-oriented sponsors, primarily Best Foods and Welche's and moved it to the 7:30 time slot from the 8:30 spot.

@@RayPointerChannel My apologies for being incorrect on the Flintstones example specifically (the commercials aired from 1961-1963 while the FCC banning of cigarette commercials didn't start until Nixon signed legislation on it in 1969). I took the articles claiming that the show was receiving backlash from parents for advertising cigarettes for granted without fully verifying it first. That said, you're not entirely right either. It was because of Wilma giving birth to Pebbles, leading to Winston themselves pulling their sponsorship amid concerns over advertising cigarettes on a show with a baby character. Nowhere can I find that it was because the show was attracting a family audience, but I wouldn't be surprised if that was a factor as well.

Regarding THE FLINTSTONES and the advertising of Winston Cigarettes (and Miles Laboratory products like Alka Seltzer), censors had nothing to do this, "forcing" the removal of cigarette commercials on THE FLINTSTONES. It was a network decision based on the discovery that this series, originally aimed at an adult audience attracted a family audience. So the network sold the time slot to family oriented companies such as Best Foods and Welches. THAT is what happened. Take it from someone who saw it when it happened.

I couldn't agree more. And that's because those two periods you mentioned, are transition periods. not just art and media, but society as a whole was going through a big shift in mindset and life style both during the early to mid 30s but also in the late 60s/early 70s. And well, let's not pretend that the end of prohibition in the 30s and the rise of counterculture and psychedelics in the 60s wasn't an important factor

Many works of art do this til even today. That's how someone grabs an audience and keeps them there! For example, have you seen the promotional materials for lilo and stitch such as those animated crossover teasers?

it is written...the end times will be worse than ever before on the face of the earth...even before the flood when only 8 people survived...for the naysayers i say just because you do not believe does not change the truth... mythology is not a myth... look up rob skiba with an open mind mary jacob

Yes. Just watch episodes of the beloved animated series "Animaniacs"from the early-mid 1990s. Animaniacs is full of references and mockery of the current topics of that time, especially the Hollywood stars and culture of the day. That humor would just fly over the heads of those too young to remember that era.

Starting around I think the mid-late 1930s Looney Tunes did these little shorts that didn't really have the usual cast of Bugs, Daffy, Elmer etc. but was specifically a showcase of making fun of the big name celebs at the time. There are a fair few familiar names and faces, Humphrey Bogart, Lauren Bacall, Laurel and Hardy etc but among them every so often you'd get a segment pocking fun at a popular slapstick comedian/ singer/ actor etc who had just released their movie at the time that could either be really funny or like a 1930's meme movie that everyone was taking the piss out of. Like if the internet and twitter existed back then they'd be absolutely meme-ing it into oblivion. Back then that comedian would have been relatively well known, a household name-now, like 90 years on very few people know who that person is and the ones who were around during their stardom are extremely old if not dead. At some point some references in modern cartoons to some celebrities or well known people WILL be weird to those in the future watching it because they have no fucking idea who that person was or why that reference was how it was portrayed. Some of those reference could be who we consider as big names.

Oh thank you! That's really high praise 💖

@@c-puff. You deserve it. Showing that the definition of something being adult is equally flimsy as disdain behind combining socks and sandals!

What do you mean, basically?

And why Mickey is rarely drawn with teeth at all.

@@austinreed7343. Really?

If you think they started to get good, then only seen half of them. Animation has always been good long as right budget and art style are working togather!

Thank you! I cut it close but I was DETERMINED to get it out before 2022 XD thank you so much for watching

also, i really appreciate the title and year of whatever's being shown in the corner. lots of stuff for me to add to my "watch later" hehe

I was looking up photos for this project and I think I meant they were not living in the city dump in shacks build from refuse or just straight up living on the streets. Just based on some of the living conditions I saw in my research. This video was fun but also emotionally draining at times.

@@c-puff I'd be interested in your research sources since there are some that are very specific on this detail.

Thank you so much for watching! Hopefully if I keep at it eventually the algorithm will favour me ;w;

@@c-puff. KZfaq could use some more enlightened individuals!

So her research is holey?

Happy (almost!) New Year, Troy! Thanks for hanging out as I start this whole yt thing. I really appreciate it ✌

She just earned herself a New subscriber!

I agree, I love her editing so much!

​​@@JungoFunko. Her accent is annusual and goes well with her smooth voice, wich helps keep her audience's attention too!😊

I completely agree! @@erikbihari3625

Not bad.

Ah great thanks for telling me! 😂 He did an excellent job then because I genuinely couldn't tell!

What?

Well, it's not a Velma hate-sink, or some other degenerative youtube content form, so, of course, the audience has little interest in it.

Ye ye! he was an incredibly interesting dude. I love that interview with him. He sounds so chill.

You're welcome. I didn't want people to be needlessly upset or stressed out.

​@@c-puff. About what?

I've been listening t a true crime podcast and what's even weirder is how many real-world criminals who were active at the time are in Looney Tunes as jokes 👀💦

@@c-puff i mean people have been joking about tragedies for years now so nothing to new

Probably never said it.

Yet their still goofy and lighthearted. A wonderful contradiction!

? Did I not say 1930? I'm pretty certain I would not get that wrong.

That was not his conception with The Fountain. The Fountain is simply one in a line of artwork he referred to as "Ready Made Art". In which he presented everyday objects, removed from their context completely, and presented them as art, forcing you to pay attention to the lines and curves of whatever object he had selected. This is why it's called "The Fountain" and not simply "urinal". He has completely detached it from its identity as a functional object and presented it as nothing more but form. But that's not what makes it art (although you can argue it does). What makes it art is the fact people are still arguing about it to this very day. It forces you to engage with the concept of art in a general sense, and how we identify art and what we consider art and how far do we stretch the definition of "art". By putting The Fountain in a museum, it forces a conversation. That's what makes it art.

A:"where? B:"what's that?

Do I ever as well!

What?

So?

I'm pretty sure it wasn't her.

I don't think it's too long. It explains everything and has kept me riveted
