how old is too old to watch cartoons?

Eh, I still watch cartoons too. I mean...I guess they are more "adult themed" cartoons anymore, though. Once in awhile I'll still watch Spongebob, or any 90's cartoons if they happen to be on for once. Even if I do enjoy watching cartoons...I don't see it hindering me any. I would understand if I were watching cartoons intent ended for preschoolers...but I'm definitely not watching that sort. Sometimes, there is just nothing else to watch...so why not watch cartoons? I think it's childish if you only watch those and refuse to open yourself up to watching anything else...but I mean, if you're hurting anybody, I don't see the problem.

I still watch cartoons, and I don't see anything wrong with it. My boyfriend also loves spongebob. I do watch it sometimes, though I must say, that show is for adults and not for kids, sometimes I think they teach kids the wrong things. (But they are funny. ). I say cartoons is for everybody, and you are never to old to watch one.

I guess there are really cartoons which for me are rubbish. I don't even allow my son to watch those types of cartoons. But there are lots of cartoons that even adults enjoy watching. Disney produces a lot of these animated movies. As a matter of fact, my son and I both love watching Disney's "Cars." "Mulan" is another one that we love watching. Aside from the fight scenes, it also shows us a glimpse of China's culture. Nickelodeon also has lots of entertaining as well as educational cartoons. (Spongebob is one of the exceptions :) Sometimes I miss some of them like Thomas and Friends and the Little Red Tractor that were shown on Cartoon Network. There are really lots of cartoons that are viewed by children and adults alike. You get entertained and at times it makes you feel that life isn't always about serious things. Besides, we adults should always be kids at heart. It makes life easier and bearable when we do.

Watching cartoons is like having icecream you can never be too old for icecream no matter how many times you eat it and thats how i feel about cartoons. I look at cartoons and anime they just will never get old to me.

No age limit as long as you want to watch. Im a cartoon fanatic, I watch spongebob, mickeymouse, tom and jerry, disney cartoon movies, x-men, fantastic 4, the avengers and many other more....Im 32 but still I watch them, my wife is like your husband but i dont care I love watching cartoons. sometimes I would go to a movie store to action film and cartoon. Most of the times I watch cartoons with my daughters we laugh together when we watch tom and jerry. I think your husband dont realize that cartoons are also educational....right? Have you ever watch dora the explorer, its a good one....

I think it depedns on what kind of cartoons. I think Spongebob is just really for kids. Sometimes watching it just bores me because there are elements that are just really for kids. I think because it's just chill. Some cartoons are actually not for kids and those contain violence, gore, nuidity, etc.

No, I do not care for Sponge Bob and I really do not remember any that I would like to watch except maybe Bugs Bunny. If your quoting of Sponge Bob is making it into your everyday life in too frequent a manner it may have a bad result, as in turning off prospective employers and potential friends. I have heard others say that they find good life lessons in Sponge Bob, and little kids love him, I just do not care for him.

Well, I'm pushing 60 and still like some cartoons, tho I have to say I think Sponge Bob is garbage... but that's all a matter of likes and what you grew up with. I actually think Courage the Dog (tho the animation style is horrid) is actually pretty funny.

I don't think there should be any upper or lower age limit on people watching cartoons, as if it's something they enjoy, then go for it. However, I'm wondering if your husband's remark may be geared towards wondering if you have become too caught up in the lives of the cartoon characters? Of course I could be completely wrong.

I know some people who has has interests still with watching cartoons though they are adults and no longer kids. My school mate loves to watch her favorite cartoons way back in college. My cousins also watch cartoons until high school and perhaps until now. I myself, watch cartoons with my niece and nephews since i have no choice. But, i enjoy watching it since it relaxes and made me laugh. It releases stress and tensions at times and some cartoons would have a moral lesson to give its' audience. Therefore, i would say that age does not matter as to when to stop watching cartoons. As long as you enjoy viewing and you think it gives a sense of happiness then, it would be just fine. It is not a sign of regression where one would be back to earlier life. It is completely normal thing and ageless activity.

i think there's no age to stop that if we grow up listening or watching to something, it's clear that we'll love that forever, exactly how i know a twin brother and sister that can't nothing but vegetables cause their mother would give them healthy food as babies and they only met fast food like with 8 years old, so they don't like it! my father can't help to buy all charlie chaplin movies as he can because he grow up watching him, and in our generation there were many cartoons so it's hard to let go, i still love dungeons and dragons

Guess I must be childish then and I am more than twice your age...exponential in fact. Cartoon nowadays are far different from the cartoons of ages ago. Animated movies are watched by both children and adults and they could be both entertaining. I love Disney's and Pixar's animated movies and have watched a few again and again at home. Individuals have their own preferences and you don't have to be influenced by another if it is really what you want and does not harm anybody else. Cheers.

Nah... I think no one should dictate with what you as you also should not dictate what he llkes...but for compromise sake maybe just limit the hours of your cartoon watching...And besides there is nothing wrong with watching cartoons..hell i love cartoons.. and i'm already twenty plus but i still watch.

I don't think that is a limit age for you watch cartoons. I'm older than you (I have 23 years) and, sometimes, I still watch cartoons. Specially those ones of my childhood time, like Flinstones, Jetsons, Doug, Hey Arnold..I still have a lot of fun watching them! Of course that now I prefer some more "adult" cartoons like Family Guy and American Guy.

Don't get me started haha. Seriously though there's no age limit on watching cartoons or other animated films. adults make cartoons because they love animation and the whole art-form I'm also a lover of animated films animation, and its ridiculous that adults think that there's an age limit on watching cartoons I believe that cartoons are made for everyone at every age. I'm saying sure cartoons are generally centered on children because adults tend to lose there since of fun, and youthfulness, because they think being an adult means not staying in touch with there child side or having fun, I haven't lost that side of myself. I'm an artist who still enjoys and respects the work that goes into making animation and I will be enjoying animation well into my 80's or longer if I live that long lol.

I am 46 and I still watch cartoons some times with my cat!!L.O.L. But not all the time I say you are never too old for cartoons!!! Don't let him bring you down if you like watching them watch them I am sure he watches some things you don't like? Have a good day!!

I don't think that you can ever be too old to watch your favorite cartoons. this enjoyment should not have an age limit thrust upon it. As long as a cartoon can make us happy and make us laugh, then we should continue our enjoyment.

I do not think it is wrong for adult to watch cartoons because those cartoons have been accompaning us while we were growing up. They have quite an important role in our lives as a result. Just do not think guilty about watching cartoons when you are already an adult becauce a lot of adults do this. I remeber in both Hong Kong and Japan, a lot of people used to be the fans of a series of robots appeared in a popular cartoon. They still buy models for those robots even when they reach their thirties. Therefore, I think it is absolutely alright for us to watch cartoon at whatever age we are as long as we are not to obsess into it.

It depends on the cartoons,there are some cartoons that will never get old and it doesn't matter whether you are five years old or thirty you can still watch them and it is practically normal.For example tom and jerry will never get old,and will always be a classic cartoon which will be watched by a lot of people.

No,it is not childish.There is nothing bad to watch cartoons because everybody want to feel like a child-no worries,no school,no family problems.But I think it is not normal to watch cartoons 24/7 6 or 7 hours per day.It is unnormal.But If you want to watch cartoons with your child this is more than good.We all know that child need support in that,what they are doing and probably they need more spent time with their parents.What do you think?
