Any self-respecting kid who grew up during the late 1980s through the early 1990s knows 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' like the back of their hand. Origin story involving mutagenic ooze? Wise old sensei in the form of a talking bipedal rat? Arch villain bristling with a set of pointy armor? Check, check and check.

This is definitely our favorite kind of censorship. It's the kind where the bleeps aren't quite long enough and you can tell exactly what curse words are being said underneath them.

Normally, we wouldn’t applaud the efforts of adult men who play with dolls, but hey, it’s Christmas!

It's officially after Thanksgiving, which means it's time for Hallmark to roll out their annual collection of new adorable collectible ornaments. But amid the miniature Snoopys and Jack Skellingtons comes this $12.95 abomination:

Leave it to Jimmy Kimmel and his crew to make America's favorite comic strip characters into greedy, dirty-mouthed misanthropes, just like the rest of us Black Friday shoppers!

We've been mourning the sad loss of 'Calvin and Hobbes' ever since cartoonist Bill Watterson stopped producing the beloved comic strip in 1995. But apparently the strip hasn't gone completely forgotten, since a piece of original 'Calvin and Hobbes' artwork recently broke a record at auction by selling for hundreds of thousands of dollars.

If the U.S. is sending unmanned robotic drones out on missions to kill enemies, we must officially be living in the future, right? Fortunately the animation style of the new 'SNL' segment 'Midnight Snack' is still stuck squarely in the and '90s.

Dumb Ways to Die is pretty much exactly what it sounds; adorable cartoon characters getting killed thanks to their own stupidity. And now it's in GIF form!

Videos of old-timey skeleton dances are the best way to get a little spook-ified before Halloween without accidentally soiling yourself. That is a fact -- you can ask anybody. Oh, thanks for asking. Yes, that is a fact. From PBS to Disney and beyond, here are the best skeleton dances EVER to get you into the spirit of Halloween.

Apparently the music from 'Inception' can make pretty much anything seem hyper-dramatic. With its help and a little editing, Spongebob's movie gets transformed into an intense heist film. Not that we're surprised -- a person can only hear so many horn blasts before they start to take things very, very seriously...

Cartoon Network is celebrating 20 years of bringing animated merriment into the world, and they've released this video as a compendium of what they've been up to/a little reminder of how you've squandered the past 20 years of your life.

Need a laugh? Looking to kill some time waiting for the weekend? This should do it. Maybe I'm just easily amused but this video of unnecessarily censored cartoons never fails to get a laugh.
