Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy

Crazy cartoon where the Grim Reaper has a Jamaican accent and is subservient to two psycho kids. This cartoon scratches a particular itch no other cartoon does haha, its good stuff

Edit: by kidult, I mean it has appeal to both audiences with stuff that goes over kids heads often and is probably super inappropriate situations/lessons, and such

Edit: I might be also referring generally to content from outlets/studios like

  • Nickolodeon
  • Teletoon
  • Adult Swim
  • CartoonNetwork
  • some YTV
  • Hannah Barbara

Avatar: The Last Airbender. I could rave about it all day.

Also Gravity Falls like @swordgeek@lemmy.ca said.

I never watched Justice League much as a kid, but my wife re-introduced it to me as an adult and it's a pretty great mix of kid-friendly superhero stories with fairly mature themes and plotlines.

Additionally, a less awkward term than "kidult" is just "family entertainment". Shows/movies/books that can be enjoyed by a wide spectrum of ages.

This is the first I've heard of it, but it sounds pretty interesting. The new Avatar being born as one of a set of twins is a very neat idea that I wouldn't have considered. That can create some really compelling stories on its own.
