[@canaisyoung3601]

​​@@timeweoyaYes, it was. 1990s cartoons were filled to the brim with dubious jokes that little kids wouldn't get, but parents and older viewers would. Check out any rerun of classic Animaniacs or any 1990s Nickelodeon or Cartoon Network original show. However, a reference to the Rodney King beating does seem like one of those jokes that would only get told once in a kids' cartoon, because all reruns would either ban the episode or cut/alter the joke due to complaints from parents and media watchdog groups. Then again, "Tiny Toon Adventures: How I Spent My Summer Vacation" had a quick reference to Paul Reubens' (the guy known for his Pee-Wee Herman character) arrest for lewd conduct in an X-rated theater not long after he decided to end "Pee-Wee's Playhouse" due to exhaustion, so, hypothetically, this wouldn't be too off-base.

I was thinking late 1990s/early 2000s Cartoon Network. Or Nickelodeon in that weird middle after Ren and Stimpy went off the air because of John Kricfalusi's foolishness but before SpongeBob became a hit. Back when only good cartoons they had were Kablam! (that animated comic book hosted by two kids named Henry and June), CatDog (which is either a underrated and wrongfully maligned masterpiece or a sign that Nickelodeon was desperate for a hit cartoon), Rocko's Modern Life (which was starting to falter a bit because Joe Murray's first wife died and he was so depressed that he didn't want to work on the show anymore), and whatever was considered popular on "Oh Yeah! Cartoons". Heck, I'll even accept it as a Kids WB or non-Disney ABC cartoon that only lasted a season because of either parent complaints or the executives deciding that it wasn't a good fit, even though its ratings were good.

(And a half decent deinterlacer plugin) Like ... computer / video card with a TV out socket, VCR with a composite input, put a bit of a black buffer at the start and end of the prepared video, set it playing then hit record on the tape. Rewind, plug VCR composite output into a capture card, repeat the process in the opposite direction. Still, even more respect for actually going all out for authenticity. (or do you mean all the transitions are genuine as well, so multiple passes of seeking and hitting record at JUST the right point, in sync with clips made just a little longer than what we end up seeing? That would be even more dedication...)

[@ginogatash4030]

@@rickyrodriguez4037 depends, a lot of Disney shows were pretty well animated like this, they weren't feature level but still good, and it's not just the number of rames but also the complexity of character acting and the consistency of solid drawing, the lack of which gives off the kinda cheap melty look of your typical cartoon from the time, American cartoons tried to aim for a consistent 12 or something frames a second always without many freeze frames, in contrast to anime where they'd use a lot of stills and very limited movement if any outside of the mouth during dialogue and save all the time and budget for the few really high quality scenes.

A TV show about Gex honestly doesn’t sound like a bad idea; and it would be an improvement over Fairly OddParents: Channel Chasers.
