When did cartoons start getting weird?

One of my son's favorite toons is Uncle Grandpa which features a talking slice of pizza and a talking fanny pack. Now I'm not saying these can't be funny, but absurd humor gets old and has limits.
Now get off my lawn.

I'm 20, and I consider myself fairly flexible when it comes to cartoons today.
That said, Uncle Grandpa is freaking creepy.

I'd go with this as the first major culprit:

The pizza has balls.
I can't post a pic but it's SOOO obvious.

Beavis and Butthead was pretty bad. And I am sure the much older crowd were flabbergasted by The Simpsons when it came out. Homer was choking out his own 10 year-old son in the first season - a far cry from The Jetsons or The Flintstones.

The "Belly Brothers" episode makes me

Looney Toons was pretty weird in its own right. I guess the point of cartoons has been to do things that you either can't do or people wouldn't feel comfortable doing with real life. Animation increases the feeling of fantasy and the distance with real life. Some of the stuff depicted in bugs bunny or the road runner would be downright disgusting and disturbing if a realistic interpretation were done.

Uncle grandpa is horrible. However Cartoon Network has other great shows. Gumball, Regular Show, adventure Time,and even Clarence.

Cartoons have always been weird. That's kind of the point

Weird stuff has been around for ages, but I'd credit (or blame, depending on your take) a good deal of the recent, twisted trend to Ren & Stimpy. Those guys hit right when MTV & cable began to blow up and continued on in the biz well after the show ended. It's pretty obvious, sometimes.

That Flapjack cartoon is some weird shite right there.

I always thought Pepe Lepew trying to rape a cat was kinda weird

I don't know, but this was the shizzy for me:

The Beatles' Yellow Submarine was pretty strange. As were some of the animated stuff Monty Python did.
Squidbillies and Aqua Team Hunger Force are prob my favorite of the weird cartoon.
