Which moment in a kid's show disturbs you the most?

There's some creepy, disturbing things in MLP, though it's mostly in the themes and not the show itself. For me it's mostly that Nightmare Moon wanted to commit planet-wide genocide.

Courage definitely takes the cake in this competition though.

Courage the dog is top tier however.

Nothing beats Courage The Cowardly Dog

That show is the undefeated champion of all creepy cartoons

Yeah, undoubtedly Courage. I mean, even the show's tamest villain is creepier than a lot of horror flick baddies.

And that music. Oh GOD that music.

Also, don't forget that there's an episode where a vulture eats Ren's body.
Or that one episode where Ren gets old, buys a deluxe coffin and gets eaten by worms at the end.
Nickelodeon was pretty good for this kind of stuff.
Just look at this or this

Other than courage, I had nightmares about Magnamite from Astro Boy. Especially that goddamn sound he made, like a whale being stabbed…

Courage the crowdly dog has some or the freaky stuff in almost every episode. "The claymation violinist", "Return the slab" and suffer my curse..was the most scarier episodes for me.

MOD EDIT: No advertising, please! :P

It's not even close. This was the creepiest thing I ever saw from my childhood.

There's no need to be so coldhearted, Alex. Just relax and chill out

and to keep with the thread

You are not a farmer.

Even Gumball can creepy sometimes…case in point:

But yeah, Courage outshines those moments by a very long shot.

For instance:

There's this episode of Courage where the family goes into some kind of club and the "owner", I guess, has, like, his entrails and flesh inside out, covering the walls, the floor and the ceiling.

Its been a long time since I saw that episode. Can't remember the name, though.

i remember an episode where they get turned into cardboard drawings

Then again, with the path that Adventure Time is taking, I wouldn't necessarily call it a "children's" cartoon.

Every single time this thing appeared in an episode of Moomin.

The theme song still sends cold chills down my spine. And not the good kind of chills.

It just reminds me of the surrounding dark and cold winter, and that goddamn growling noise it made, which caused me to flee the room (or alternatively hide behind the sofa).
