Looney Tunes' racist cartoons aired everyday in the 1980s and early 1990s, as if the cartoons were brand new. They were from the archives but they looked recent to us.
I was 5 in '82 and 18 in '95. I remember the after school cartoons that I watched before I felt too grown to be watching cartoons after school (which happened like, yesterday
). Stuff like Darkwing Duck wasn't offensive besides the speech empediment (and did the evil person have the typical foreign accent?).
