Old TV characters that wouldn't fly today

[Mike Honcho 4,007]

mikeyhoncho would be incredibly fake outraged

 

HOLY RMFF!!!

 

Seriously dude, your obsession is getting a little creepy. Seek help.

... then why didn't they call him "Javelin Chucker"?

Maybe JC for short. He walks on water.

[titans&bucs&bearsohmy! 2,745]

The guy from the honeymooners. Always threatening domestic violence.

Ralph Kramden.

Pow right in the kisser

[ELVIS! 12]

Beaver Clever.

 

Dean Martin was always drunk and feeling up the dancers.

 

The Flying Nun.

 

I remember a bugs bunny cartoon where he kept saying "Japs!"

[mmmmm...beer 691]

 

Dean Martin was always drunk and feeling up the dancers.

 

 

Ironically I read that he didn't even drink. It was apple juice In his glass all the time. Just schtick.

[Giants Fan 85]

Captain Kangaroo.

 

Back in the day, you never missed it. Was the shiznit.

 

 

Today? Seems like some kinda weird pedophile trap.

[RLLD 3,455]

What about witchiepoo

[Giants Fan 85]

These days, a man over 50 having sex with a woman under 21 is a pedophile.

 

It used to mean something very different.

 

 

Whatever happened to that actor, the guy who played the old pedo? He was good in that role.

[edjr 5,546]

How about Lucille Ball? she was always mistreating Ricky.

[Giants Fan 85]

Now, that's before my time. "to the Moon Alice" was recently quoted by Bill Maner, as "not too long ago it was a joke on netwrok TV that you might hit your wife so hard her head would go "to the moon".

 

And it's true. It sucks and it's unfair.

 

There used to be a way of talking about difficult subjects, like Different Strokes famously did in that episode, in every day media, but it's evaporated, and been replaced with violence.

 

So, yeah, good luck with that, kids.

[Giants Fan 85]

I was neither molested or beaten as a child but .. given the choice, like if some hot adult lady wanted to give me a BJ ... i prolly woulda been fine with that. BJ or get my ass kicked ... Like to think I would always choose the BJ.

 

But I dunno, as I didn't go through it. Sorry, if anyone did and it affected you. Unless it was that hot blonde teacher. In that case I am jealous. Do you have her number?

[Giants Fan 85]

Wtf? Just goes to show you, pedophiles come in all shapes and sizes.

 

Then there are guys like me, that like adult women,,with no ass, like Selma Blair.

 

I can't imagine a woman, in her late 30's with a nice, tight little ass that isn't hot. Big fat ass blows the whole equation. Imagine Kim Kardashian in 20 years. Now watch this Swiffer commercial:

Yeah, um ... That's a good example of, just the right amount of ass. She's kinda famous now too,,been in a zillion commercials. Rich. How rich? Meah ... Who cares, did you see dat ass? That is all you need to know, my friend.

[Baker Boy 1,477]

Amos & Andy

Why is Amos and Andy considered unacceptable but the 3 Stooges continues to be shown daily on American TV?

[hoytdwow 202]

The maid from Tom & Jerry.

[Bert 1,087]

The entire cast of Soap and The Jeffersons

[RLLD 3,455]

I was introducing my kids to MASH and the character, Spearchucker, would clearly never be allowed today.

 

What are some others?

 

THIS was the very first one that i thought of.

[RLLD 3,455]

Tonto of course

 

The entire Hawaii Five O cast...

 

Charlie Chan

[BiPolarBear 476]

Just noticed Patsfat intended the thread to be about the name of the tv character and not about the behavior of said character.

 

Oops.

[KSB2424 3,082]

Yhe Indians in Peter Pan

[Vikings4ever 496]

Most of the Looney Toons. Introduce them today, and you've got people mad because it's making fun of people with speech impediments.

 

Then there's Pepe Le Pew, the sexual harasser/borderline rapist.

[phillybear 364]

The brilliant John Larroquette, Dan Fielding from Night Court.

[Flyfreak 84]

[Baker Boy 1,477]

Fake Racism Outrage!

[Sho Nuff 719]

Replying to your own post as a pity bump...some fake outrage alright.

 

Wxtra internet time at the old folks home?

[Cloaca du jour 2,064]

Jeanie from I Dream of Jeannie.
