Animated Shock Comedy is a subgenre of primarily Western Animated Sitcom that emerged in the 1990s (though it has its roots significantly earlier), towards the tail end of The Renaissance Age of Animation. A new generation of cartoons busted Western TV animation out of the Animation Age Ghetto by infusing animation with pervasive elements that are decidedly not for children: Vulgar Humor and Black Comedy. These shows typically feature heavy elements of Comedic Sociopathy, strong profanity, pop culture references, socio-political satire, and last but not least, shocking subjects used as punchlines. In The '90s, shows like The Simpsons (debuting as early as 1987 as shorts within The Tracey Ullman Show and 1989 as a standalone show) and Beavis And Butthead proved to the industry that cartoons with an adultnote though in many cases it's more of a teen/young adult audience could be a success, and introduced certain elements, like social satire (The Simpsons) and crudeness (Beavis and Butthead) that paved the way, but the genre really took off with the debut of the Trope Codifier South Park in 1997. Family Guy had a huge impact on the genre as well, particularly in its use of the Cutaway Gag. The massive success of these shows spawned a whole host of imitators and helped initiate a Ruder and Cruder shift within pop culture as a whole. Animated Shock Comedies are virtually always Prime Time Cartoons, and the most common form is the Animated Sitcom. They are character- or gag-driven rather than plot-driven, and often feature Negative Continuity. As part of their "adult" nature, they eschew Zany Cartoon elements like Toon Physics in favor of a more mundane setting where characters typically have jobs and clearly defined species. While many are not afraid to dabble in other genres, like Speculative Fiction or Thriller, this is usually done through parody, and fantastical elements are incorporated in a Mundane Fantastic manner. Visually, Animated Shock Comedies are not confined to any particular animation style, though Thin-Line Animation is probably the most common. A number of them tend to have fairly crude or "cheap" animation styles, possibly to mimic the Genre Popularizer South Park's "construction paper" style (it's actually animated on computer software and this style allows for very rapid Production Lead Time). Animated Shock Comedy received a fair amount of backlash back in the day, both from Moral Guardians due to the genre's family-unfriendliness, and from critics for the perceived laziness of its quick gag-based humor. The latter criticism was enhanced by Seasonal Rot and perceived Follow the Leader tendencies amongst some popular examples, many of which became well past their expiry date at best. However, the genre received something of a rehabilitation in the 2010s, with a number of critically-acclaimed examples, like Big Mouth, Rick and Morty and Archer that managed to balance key features of the genre with Character Development. Remember that Tropes Are Tools and any genre can be done well or poorly. For a long time, Animated Shock Comedies were, for all intents and purposes, the only successful Western animated works aimed at adult audiences. (The stereotype that all adult Western animation fell under this umbrellanote as exemplified by the former trope name, All Adult Animation Is South Park was something of a counterpart to the assumption that All Anime Is Naughty Tentacles.) Part of this is parallel to the inherent issue of the Animation Age Ghetto, being the insistence that "If it's animated, it must be immature." This has begun to change ever so slightly since the late 2010s, with the introduction of the first successful non-comedy adult animated series such as Primal (2019) and Castlevania (2017), but shock comedy is still by far the dominant genre in Western adult animation. Therefore, this is not the place to list aversions. Compare Grossout Show, Rated M for Money, and All Anime Is Naughty Tentacles. |

Bojack Horseman deconstructs some of this genre's conventions, specifically the Unsympathetic Comedy Protagonist. The result is a story about how love is earned and that nobody is going to like you if they have a perfectly good reason not to. While the series has some Early-Installment Weirdness in the first few episodes, where it does lean more towards the South Park/Family Guy style of animated comedy, it quickly settles on character-driven Black Comedy. For example, there's a lot of dark jokes about BoJack's Abusive Parents and addictive tendencies, and Sarah Lynn's drug abuse and sex addiction, but all of these concepts become major plot points down the line. There are also a handful of episodes satirizing current events, usually with tact but occasionally throwing in some dark jokes, particularly in "Braap Braap Pew Pew" where the conflict stems from Sextina Aquafina having to fake an abortion and she sings a very over-the-top song about killing her fetus. | |

Ren & Stimpy "Adult Party Cartoon" shows us what happens when one of the most famous Gross Out Shows for children is stripped of its already-lenient network censorship. The episodes feature plotlines like Ren and Stimpy living inside a disgusting spitoon, a flashback episode where a young Ren sadistically and graphically abuses several animals, a Beach Episode with a lot of naked women, and the duo witnessing Ralph Bakshi have gross sex while they have to clean his filthy toilet. It wasn't nearly as successful as the original series, however. | |

While The Simpsons is fairly tame as far as adult cartoons go (despite it being considered edgy for its time), it gravitated towards more edgy humor and grossout comedy during its tenth season as it had to compete with the likes of Family Guy. One example is the infamous "panda rape" scene in "Homer vs. Dignity". However, this isn't a consistent tone across the show, which is generally seen as pretty laid-back. | |

While Smiling Friends' overall message of helping people with depression is more complex than one might expect from the genre, the show otherwise revels in Black Comedy, random bursts of violence, and surreal humor. Word of God is that in spite of many other late-night [adult swim] shows featuring the same kind of content, its presence in Smiling Friends is purely Author Appeal, not pandering to any particular demographic. | |

Beavis and Butt-Head derives several jokes from Toilet Humour, and the title characters love to point out innuendoes. While it was controversial in its time, later shows such as South Park and Family Guy have taken their vulgar humor to much greater lengths, to the point that Beavis and Butt-Head can look tame in comparison. This may be one of the reasons why the 2011 revival was so short-lived. | |

The short-lived British series Full English was roundly panned for being a very blatant Family Guy rip-off, right down to the cutaway gags. The series featured much more graphic content than Family Guy, however, with constant swearing, nudity, sex, and shock humor in every episode. | |

The Cyanide and Happiness animated shorts usually fall under this category. Some of the shorts can be dark (both Black Comedy-wise and Nightmare Fuel-wise), some of their shorts can be relatively light, some of their shorts can be surreal, some of their shorts can be gross... you get the idea. In that way, they're much like the original webcomic. | |

While Aqua Teen Hunger Force is definitely one in its later seasons (earlier episodes were much tamer, while episodes from season 4 onwards are filled with Vulgar Humor and gore), the extremely short-lived Spin-Off Soul Quest Overdrive takes this further, featuring a non-stop barrage of crude sex jokes, random gratuitous violence, drug references, and Comedic Sociopathy crammed into every 5-minute episode. | |

Kevin Spencer is full of crass humor, sexual references, and tons of satire (one episode had Percy launching into a rant that specifically targeted then-American president George W. Bush) and animation that resembles South Park. Notably, one interview with creator Greg Lawrence showed that he thought the series would be the next South Park. | |

SMG4 takes one of the most recognizable video game character of all time, and turns him into a depraved, psychopath and stupid version of him, who kills people with no remorse, humps naked on spaghetti, and goes on crazy surreal and (sometimes) darkly-humorous adventures and situations in a "retarded" world, with a cast just as crazy or stupid as him... well, at least before Cerebus Syndrome and some other factors came along many years later. | |

A lot of the humor in Rick and Morty is extremely sophomoric, with phallic imagery, burp/fart jokes, pop culture references and violence galore; however, much like Bojack Horseman, it plays the consequences of a lot of these jokes completely straight for the sake of furthering the story and developing the characters, who even at their flattest are much more fleshed out and three-dimensional than a good deal of the show's contemporaries. The most notable of this is the writers' conscious decision to make the occasional verbal rape joke while playing every instance of the act itself completely for horror, illustrating the difference between making jokes about rape and thinking rape is funny. | |

American Dad! fits this trope just as well as its older sibling, Family Guy, with rampant gore, Black Comedy, Comedic Sociopathy and Crosses the Line Twice humor present throughout, and few topics that seem to be considered off-limits. That said, it does lean towards more standard (if still outlandish) sitcom plotting and humor compared to the Reference Overdosed Cutaway Gag-infested style of Family Guy and its imitators, and it does occasionally dip its toes into more serious storytelling. | |

South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut, naturally. Trey Parker and Matt Stone specifically refused to make the movie unless it was rated R, and they used it to fill the movie with the sort of language, violence, and general depravity that the show itself could only dream of - at least at the time. (The film has ran uncensored on Comedy Central at least a handful of times, with the first being in 2001.) Not to mention it featured such charming musical numbers as "Uncle Fucka" and "Kyle's Mom Is A Big Fat Bitch". Guinness World Records gave it the award for most swearing in an animated film, and according to them, "The 81-minute movie contains 399 swear words, 128 offensive gestures, and 221 acts of violence." | |

Gintama has toilet humor and fourth wall breaking even though it was published in a certain shonen manga magazine (and it's not afraid to take potshots at its fellow Jump series, either). It's frequently cited as the Japanese equivalent to Family Guy due to their very similar styles of humor. | |

Star Trek: Lower Decks dabbles in and was marketed as this, being a lot more likely than other Trek shows to show frequent swearing, nudity, sex, and bloody violence and injury for laughs. But much like Rick and Morty (Lower Decks show runner is Mike McMahan who worked on R&M) it has a lot of character focus and heart to it as well, it's mainly a story of how several lower rank Starfleet members on a ship that itself is relegated to less glamourous work deal with the more day-to-day craziness of working in Starfleet... which just often includes violence and sex. It still typically has the optimistic core of most Trek works. | |

Crayon Shin-chan: In the franchise's native Japan, the manga is aimed at adults as it was published in a Seinen manga magazine. Oddly, its anime adaptation is considered family-friendly despite the crude, raunchy humor being kept in. In addition, the vast majority of the foreign dubs Bowdlerized the anime to make it more suitable for younger audiencesnote though they still had their moments of raunchiness, some of which were actually added by the dubbers themselves. When the anime finally received the more well-known Gag Dub by FUNimation, it was marketed specifically towards adults and had its raunchiness turned up to eleven. | |

Bludgeoning Angel Dokuro-chan is technically a series of Light Novels, but the anime adaptation definitely qualifies. The story is about a cute angel who repeatedly and graphically kills the main character and later revives him, only to do it again every time she gets mad at him. Furthermore, she was sent from the future to kill him so he doesn't grow up to create an immortality potion that stops women from physically aging past twelve years old and thus creating a "pedophile's world". And there are even more raunchy jokes, including the fact that angels get chronic diarrhea when their halos are removed. | |

Hoops, another Netflix cartoon. The main character is a completely unlikable Jerkass, and the humor is very crass, with lots of dick jokes and extreme amounts of F-bombs from its VERY foul-mouthed protagonist. While jerkass protagonists are hardly rare in this genre, this one's sheer obnoxiousness garnered the show many negative reviews, and likely led to its swift cancellation. | |

The Boondocks contains a lot of profanity, sexual humor, and occasionally some bloody violence, though it seldom resorts to Toilet Humor outside the episode where R. Kelly is on trial for a sex tape of him urinating on a 14-year-old girl. It has been compared to the former trope namer, but only in regards to its biting social commentary, not its style of crude humor. | |

Bob's Burgers in Season 1—the first episode alone cracked jokes about pedophilia, autism and cannibalism. Starting with Season 2, the show dropped most of the puerile elements (barring the Toilet Humor) and settled into what is essentially a Denser and Wackier version of King of the Hill (which is very much not in this genre). | |

Solar Opposites uses the aliens' Blue-and-Orange Morality as an excuse to employ a ton of Black Comedy, gore (Alien Blood and otherwise), and bizarre, often sophomoric humor, as well as numerous pop culture references. However, the subplots about the Wall and the Silvercops take some of those mean-spirited jokes and spin them off into dramatic narratives that downplay the edgier comedy. | |

South Park is almost single-handedly responsible for kickstarting the trend of Refuge in Audacity and Crosses the Line Twice in adult animation. Hard as it is to imagine these days, in 1997 the sight of cartoon characters telling each other to "suck balls" was wild and crazy (the closest The Simpsons had ever come to that was, of course, "Eat my shorts!"), and the show drew huge viewership numbers purely from the novelty factor. Like all popular things, it was quickly aped and imitated, and soon it became standard practice for adult cartoons to take a page out of Trey Parker and Matt Stone's book. Unlike many of its imitators, though, South Park's humor relies heavily on satire and mockery of weekly news Ripped from the Headlines, though Toilet Humour and crude sexual jokes still feature frequently. | |

One major complaint about Mr. Pickles is that the show tries to cram as many sex jokes and as much violent, disturbing and disgusting content as humanly possible into 11 minutes. That said, there are hints of a consistent plot, and notably for the genre, it rarely delves into politics. Season 3 tries other types of humor besides just gross-out, like genre parodies, though it still thrives in gore. | |

When Ghost Stories was dubbed into English, the producers at ADV Films were told to do whatever they wanted to help the show sell (even though scripts were made, the voice actors mainly ad-libbed).

Osomatsu-san is a sequel to Osomatsu-kun, a classic shonen gag manga that was largely kid-friendly, and it has a similarly cartoony art style to its predecessor. However, Osomatsu-san is marketed mainly at an teen and adult audience due to having a much more adult and raunchy sense of humor. Since the six brothers are lazy, hard-drinking, self-centered NEETs who obsess over sex but can rarely find female companionship, it has a lot of crude humor, up to and including a scene in the OVA showing the title character getting 'ridden' by the horse instead of the other way around. | |
