DO you remember all the cartoons that we were never allowed to watch as children? Those with cheeky jokes that flew over our heads years ago, but make us chuckle now.
The good news is that many of these cartoons – more aptly known as adult animations – are still streaming, so you can binge to your heart’s content.
From the witty and timeless humour of The Simpsons to the downright hilarious plot points in Family Guy – now is the time to kick back, relax, and revisit your favourite adult animations on Disney+ Hotstar.
1. Solar Opposites
Solar Opposites offers a glimpse into what it would be like for aliens to inhabit Earth, showing four aliens who assimilate and adjust to human life as they escape their exploding homeworld, Shlorp.
Taking place a year after Korvo, Terry, Yumyulack and Jesse crash land into a suburban cul-de-sac in America, Solar Opposites sees the family evenly split on whether Earth is awful or awesome - all while upholding their mission of protecting the precious Pupa, a living supercomputer from their home planet.
Packed with a ton of edgy humour that will have viewers chortling away, violence and gore presented in a light-hearted manner, as well as stunning visuals that will undoubtedly captivate its audience, Solar Opposites offers biting, yet truthful commentary on the modern world.
From the detrimental effects of pollution and consumerism to the remarkable creativity and innovation of humans, Korvo, Terry, Yumyulack and Jesse explore the duality of life on Earth and essentially - what it means to be human.
2. Family Guy
Meet the Griffin family: Peter, the endearingly, frustratingly ignorant head of the household, his stay-at-home wife Lois, and their three kids - eldest child and social outcast Meg, awkward and shy Chris, genius baby Stewie. Not to forget their talking, martini-sipping dog, Brian.
Amidst the Griffins' chaotic escapades through everyday life, they confront one outrageous scenario after another with humour, heart and inappropriate jokes which emerge as highly memorable moments and quotes - cementing Family Guy as a household name and resonating even with those who haven’t tuned into the show.
Think of the well-known GIF of Stewie calling Lois “Mum, Mummy, Mummy, Mama” incessantly, or the widely used TikTok audio “Do you or do you not feel bonita? I feel bonita. Wonderful. Because you look bonita!” both of which serve as examples of the show's enduring impact on popular culture.
3. Futurama
What happens when you put an interplanetary delivery company together with a group of employees who don’t quite conform to the futuristic society they live in? You get a workplace sitcom set in the futuristic 31st century aptly named Futurama.
Revolving around the Planet Express interplanetary delivery company and its employees, Futurama sees a delivery boy named Fry fall into a cryogenic tube in the year 2000, frozen in time for nearly a thousand years.
Upon his release on December 31st, 2999, he finds himself becoming a delivery boy yet again, working with Planetary Express Captain Turanga Leela and a bumbling, foul-mouthed robot named Bender.
As the trio journey across the universe, viewers will undoubtedly notice the strong bond that begins to form between Fry, Leela, and Bender - and perhaps rather unexpectedly, the viewer’s own growing attachment to the characters as they grow and develop throughout the seasons.
Celebrated for its unrivalled humour and emotional depth, Futurama stands out as one of the finest animated series of the century, making it a must-watch.
4. The Simpsons
“D’oh!” and donuts - these are the two things that will definitely have you thinking about The Simpsons and more specifically, Homer Simpson.
A satirical depiction of American life portrayed by Homer and his family - hard-working stay-at-home wife and mother, Marge, troublemaker Bart, charismatic Lisa, and the adorable pacifier-sucking Maggie - The Simpsons is a spin on playful critiques of the various facets of American culture, society, politics, and history.
Though satirical, The Simpsons is not without its heartfelt moments. Amidst the never-ending shenanigans and near-constant chaos in the daily lives of the Simpsons family, what truly captivates viewers is the love that Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa, and Maggie have for each other, often resulting in tear-jerking scenes such as when Homer sacrifices his dream job for the sake of his family and the arrival of his youngest daughter Maggie.
Through the show’s sharp wit and clever humour, The Simpsons has endeared itself to viewers for over 32 years and 35 seasons, holding the record for the longest-running prime-time sitcom in the US.
Get a hearty dose of laughter by tuning into these adult animation titles on Disney+ Hotstar. - 7KLIK
