Round-ups of the clever jokes, wordplay, and visual gags that keep children's films and TV shows tolerable - nay, enjoyable - for adult audiences.

Jokes

Who Framed Roger Rabbit was a go-to film in the late &#39;80s and early &#39;90s, wearing out VCRs all over the world. For every dueling piano between cartoon ducks, there were plenty of adult jokes. If you haven&rsquo;t watched the movie in a while, take a look. Surprisingly, it touches on the ways dirty money worked its way into Los Angeles&#39;s civic planning. As <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/who-framed-roger-rabbit-inappropriate-for-kids/eric-vega" target="_blank">grown-up a topic</a> as that is, the dirty&nbsp;jokes in Who Framed Roger Rabbit are just as interesting and range from&nbsp;winking innuendo to sophisticated wordplay.

If you know anything about the history of Who Framed Roger Rabbit, dirty jokes are basically the bread and butter of the original book&#39;s author, Gary K. Wolf. His surreal brand of dark humor gave birth to the somewhat watered-down style of the film.

The finished product isn&rsquo;t just a textbook example of the hero&rsquo;s journey, or an intersection of high and low cultures - the adult humor in&nbsp;Who Framed Roger Rabbit includes some of the smartest dumb jokes you&rsquo;ll ever see or hear, and even if you know about some of the more famous adult bits, you probably didn&#39;t catch them all.

Pixar

No studio has a hold on the world's heart quite like Pixar. The company has mastered the art of manipulation, putting cute characters in heart-wrenching situations in order to toy with our emotions. Although they seem like they're mainly for kids, there's a ton of adult jokes in Pixar movies to appeal to the older audience members.This is a list of dirty jokes in Pixar movies that you never noticed. A lot of these go beyond <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/inside-out-easter-eggs/coy-jandreau?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">Pixar Easter eggs</a>; they suggest something far dirtier and naughtier.&nbsp;&nbsp;Vote up the ones that broke your brain the most.

Poetry

Considering his colorful life, it makes sense that there are some dark Shel Silverstein poem meanings, as well as some deeply witty and intentionally creepy Shel Silverstein stories. The man was certainly offbeat, if not extraordinary. He was unflinching&nbsp;and one of the most relatable children’s writers in the world.&nbsp;Silverstein lived a far-from traditional life. He wrote&nbsp;some pretty raw songs, illustrated cartoons for Playboy, hung out with Hugh Hefner, and allegedly slept with hundreds of women. He never married but had two children with a former Playmate. Tragically, he lost his 11-year-old daughter to a brain aneurysm.&nbsp;The meanings behind Shel Silverstein poems and stories are debated to this day, but it's undeniable that some were inspired by his weird and complex life.&nbsp;Are Silverstein’s poems and stories a safe place to dream, ponder extreme possibilities, and question the morals of society? Or was he promoting drug use, cannibalism, disrespect for authority, violence, anarchy, and the occult? &nbsp;Let’s put it to a vote. Which of these Silverstein stories or poems strike you as the creepiest?

Adult Jokes

Adult jokes in cartoons tend to slip past the innocent minds of children, but some of our favorite childhood shows are chock-full of inappropriate humor – <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/adult-hey-arnold-jokes/cehudspeth">Hey Arnold</a>, Ed, Edd n&nbsp;Eddy, and even Pok&eacute;mon. Pok&eacute;mon has long been a beloved franchise – from the anime we woke up extra-early to watch before school to&nbsp;the games we still find ourselves playing. But nothing is innocent and pure, and we can't have nice things because this is the age of the Internet. There are a ton of adult jokes on Pok&eacute;mon&nbsp;that you totally missed, from way too frisky Pok&eacute;mon trainers to uncomfortable moments with Professor Oak (he always seemed like a dirty old man, didn't he?). Not every Pok&eacute;mon joke is totally salacious; some are simply a little too risqu&eacute; for younger&nbsp;minds. The show certainly never held back on making a jab or two at James' sexuality. Though his sexual preference is never overtly discussed, he freely cross-dresses, dons fabulous costumes, and places risqu&eacute; personal ads. On the other hand, Brock, who is marked by his girl-crazy demeanor, turns out to be an actual dog in a number of jokes you missed on Pok&eacute;mon. Here are some dirty jokes from&nbsp;Pok&eacute;mon you may have missed – from innuendo-laden remarks in gameplay to eyebrow-raising anime scenes that are undoubtedly sexual.

Re-evaluation

Hidden adult jokes aren't just for SpongeBob and Disney, plenty of supposedly kid friendly games are riddled with mature jokes and innuendos. Sometimes the jokes feel innocent enough at first glance but other times their adult content is immediately apparent. From implied prostitution to drunkenness, some kids' video games are filled to the brim with adult jokes.To count as a kids' game on this list, a video game has to be appropriate at least at first glance. Some of the adult jokes in kids games are put their secretly by the developers while others are part of the original script. Luckily for us, more than a few have gotten by the ESRB raters and end up in the final cut of the game. There have even been a few infamous instances where dirty jokes in video games where scrapped half-hardheartedly so that somewhere in the game you could still find their remnants if you looked hard enough. A few of these adult jokes require a special code or button sequence, but the best ones are the ones that are hidden in plain sight. Some are more subtle than others but one thing is for sure, adult jokes in video games that should be appropriate <a href="http://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/the-best-overall-books-for-kids?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">for kids</a> are just a little bit funnier than everything else. Enjoy this list of adult jokes you never noticed in kid's video games.

Adult jokes and Ed, <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/serious-psychological-issues-on-ed-edd-n-eddy/anna-lindwasser?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">Edd n Eddy</a> go together like peanut butter and jelly. It was one of the odder, grimier shows that's ever been on Cartoon Network, so it shouldn’t be any surprise that the animated series included no shortage of dirty jokes and innuendo over the course of 69 episodes. Ed, Edd n Eddy may not have been <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/disgusting-ren-and-stimpy-images/cehudspeth">as disgusting as Ren &amp; Stimpy</a> or as bold with <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/inappropriate-rockos-modern-life-jokes/cehudspeth">the innuendo as Rocko's Modern Life</a>, but it still provided plenty of wink-wink, nudge-nudge jokes that went over the heads of most kids watching. These are the dirty jokes on Ed, Edd n Eddy, so vote up the ones that are least appropriate for kids.

The Powerpuff Girls is a <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/powerpuff-girls-fan-theories/crystal-brackett" target="_blank">Cartoon Network favorite</a>, one with plenty of innuendos and adult jokes.

While the inappropriate jokes may have been watered down, the adult humor was still slyly present in almost every episode of Powerpuff Girls.

Just as Dr. Seuss books are written for kids, the films are supposed to be child-friendly as well. However, turning those fairly short stories into full-length movies is a pretty difficult task, and somewhere along the way, writers got creative – perhaps a little too creative. It's actually pretty common for there to be jokes aimed at adults in children's movies - just look at the amount of <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/adult-jokes-in-pixar-movies/jacobybancroft">adult jokes in Pixar movies</a>.

Disney

Most of Disney&rsquo;s animated classics take place in an idyllic past, and so, of course, there are a number of Disney movies based on historical events. But the history lessons don&#39;t&nbsp;stop there. Disney filmmakers not only&nbsp;put their spin on antiquity, but&nbsp;also fill films with Easter eggs, double entendres, and other historical references most children miss,&nbsp;but adults can surely appreciate.

Typically, these allusions and analogues are included to add an extra layer of authenticity and accuracy to the worlds Disney creates on screen.&nbsp;Learning&nbsp;something along the way is&nbsp;a nice added bonus.&nbsp;

While the series is known for having plenty of moments that terrified kids, it also had its fair share of inappropriate Rugrats jokes.

Maybe you noticed your parents giggling mysteriously at certain moments while you obliviously smiled along with Harold or Grandpa. Well, they were probably laughing at one of the many dirty jokes in the cartoon. Check out these list of adult jokes in Hey Arnold to find out what you were missing the whole time.

Upon reflection, Johnny Bravo is just a buff dude who spends all of his time hitting on women and being the equivalent of a catcall in cartoon character form. So, it only makes sense that the jokes on Johnny Bravo are often dirty and geared towards the adults that might be watching along with their kids. Cartoon characters are often simple, but Johnny Bravo is willfully and delightfully two-dimensional. If he were a real person, however, he'd be horrifying. Let’s take a look at the times Mr. Bravo was totally fit the clich&eacute; of the inappropriate bro, obsessed with himself and with sex above all else.
