When shows starring little boys or animal boy... things. Like Ren & Stimpy, Rocko's Modern Life, heck, even Crayon Shin-chan. They're treated as classic pieces of subversive animation. And if you don't like it, you're a prim and proper, an anime nerd, or awful girly thing. And the shows always seem to star little boys of some sort, targeted at little boys.
And honestly, it's kinda sexist. "Snips and snails and puppy dog tails" and "sugar, spice, and everything nice". Every girl is a cloud of perfume that never has to use the bathroom. And boys are a collection of hardcore toxic waste. How banal has the gross out comedy become, not because it's a gross out comedy, but because it focuses on males being gross.
Bessie Higgenbottom of the Mighty B! is here to set things right. With an absolute hoot of a comedy of the veins of Ren & Stimpy. But even more refreshing. And it's easy to see how, as many reviewers are targeting this show for being "gross and vapid" in a way they'd never target the boys shows.
Clearly our culture has some work to do when so many people are freaked out by a little girl picking her nose. Bless Bessie Higgenbottom, we need more of her kind.
