Deadline -- The Parents Television Council fired another volley Tuesday at one of its favorite targets: adult-themed cartoons that also attract kids.
“Adult content isn’t just creeping into the cartoons that kids today are watching the most; it has overtaken much of that animated programming," PTC president Tim Winter says.
PTC is upset with Turner's Cartoon Network and Adult Swim: The report, titled Cartoons Are No Laughing Matter, gave each an "F" grade. Disney Channel and Nick At Nite each received an "A".
The group also says that Cartoon Network "failed to use the ratings system to warn parents about sexual content, suggestive dialogue and explicit language every time."
A Turner rep said: "All shows are carefully reviewed and given the appropriate parental guideline rating and content descriptors with each network being properly identified.”
