Adult Jokes from Cartoons That We Totally Missed As Kids

The Adult Phone Operator

When looking at the animation and artwork of Rocko’s Modern Life, no one would think for one second that such a show would insert in some adult reality-based storylines. The episode was called Canned, and in it, Rocko lost his job at Super Lot-O-Comics, which forces him to now go and find a new one just to pay the bills.

The part of the story that was slightly adult-oriented was that they made Rocko work as a “special home operator.” As kids, the lines “Baby, oh baby” would not have much of an impact. But if you’re an adult now and you are looking back at this episode, you might be thinking just how on earth such content was deemed suitable for a kids’ cartoon show.
