Rugrats:
Now I've been a big fan of the Rugrats, but, while i find this very creepy, i think this could be chalked up to a Cynical man's mind. there are plenty of ways to shoot this entire thing down, but there's still the fear that the original episodes were really about this.
Garfield:
On October 23-28th, these series of Garfield comic strips were made:
Now I felt a slight chill run down my spine on this one, because I love garfield, I used to read the comics section for him and his antics. But this was made by the creators. Meaning, they can twist and turn Garfield in any way they want.
i don't know how to interpret this comic. Was garfield dreaming he was alone? Were jon and Odie just figments of Garfield's imagination, while in reality, he's a cat alone in a house starving to death all the while he makes an alternate reality for himself in order to live his life as it once was? loneliness can do that to a person.
a bit of digging got me this statement from one of the creators: "During a writing session for Halloween week, I got the idea for this decidedly different series of strips. I wanted to scare people. And what do people fear most? Why, being alone. We carried out the concept to its logical conclusion and got a lot of responses from readers."
along with this: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allegro_Non_Troppo
"Sibelius's Valse triste, a cat wanders in the ruins of a large house. The cat remembers the life that used to fill the house when it was occupied. Eventually all of these images fade away as does the cat."
which could be interpreted as the same situation.
So was he really just dead all along? was garfield dreaming? or was it all in his imagination?
Scooby Doo:
Religious people will probably understand this more than the non-religious: www.landoverbaptist.org/news0602/scoobydoo.html
I find a lot of things wrong with it. like how they decided that shaggy was injecting himself with scooby snacks, then saying that all along scooby snacks were just cocaine and heroin. then when they called velma "thelma", that sort of made not one lick of sense. while the extremities(For instance: daphne wearing stockings means she is a whore.) in this are, well, extreme. it does raise one good point:
was shaggy just imagining scooby talking all along? you don't usually see any of the other characters.
If i find more, I'll post it.
Ed Edd and Eddy:
Anyone who says they hated this cartoon is either a horrible liar or a horrible person. this show made my childhood. It's odd to hear different types of "theories" about the meaning behind the show.
"Basically, they've contained a bunch of kids with serious disorders in a small enclosed area and filmed it, and we are viewing the results. This would explain why we never see anyone else, even in school. As for the parents, the kids could just be imagining them (though we do catch glimpses of parents and relatives in a couple episodes) or the parents are part of the experiment as well, since they're obviously as crazy as the kids."
which is a interesting theory.
Ed's mom might have been an alchoholic?
"Ed's mother is- or at least was- an alcoholic.
Ed's retardation and jaundice (yellow discoloration of the skin) are both symptoms found in children whose mothers drank heavily during pregnancy. It would also explain his neglectful upbringing, and probably Sarah's."

What do you guys think about these?
