I want to know if there are any adults on here who do watch kid shows. That includes to those who have HFA or PDD-NOS.

Shows targeted at kids? They're usually simplistic without too many big topics like Atheism or something that might cause much of a fuss.

Dragon Ball Z would be considered one, unless it was the unedited version.

Same goes for Pokemon.

It would vary depending on what country you were from though, because (For example) in Japan things are very different, for example people don't care as much about Homosexuality, also Anime is not aimed at kids specifically, it's aimed at all ages depending on the show.

And no, I can't think of any childrens shows

The Little Mermaid, Dore the Exploror, Blues Clues, Teletubbies, Clifford, Arther, Rugrats, Bratz, TMNT, Winx Club, those kinds of shows. Shows that are made for children, not for teens.

I'd definitely watch the Smurfs if they were aired again. That's about it.

I'm HFA.

I watched Rugrats for a while.

Currently, my "lineup" would be anything on Cartoon Network and Boomerang. My personal favorite is the Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy--the chicken juggling episode is my favorite.

So you're a big Cartoon Network fan, too? I am more into the Adult Swim shows myself, but the regular Cartoon Network shows are good as well.
