I don't mind modern cartoons being made to crappy standards. But I hate crappy modern standards being applied to great old cartoons. Among other things, the cuts often ruin the proper comedic timing of the show. The original directors were Oscar winners like Chuck Jones. Do you honestly think the censors are of their caliber?
But what really gets my goat is that this censorship is really just enabling poor, lazy parenting. Trust the networks, use TV as a babysitter, nothing bad can happen. You won't have to keep track of what your kids are watching. You certainly won't have to talk with them about it or teach them right and wrong. Let the TV do that.
Oh and if you want to get me something for Christmas, uncensored Looney Tunes collections are probably a good choice.
