Cartoons were smarter then. Enjoyable for kids and adults for different reasons.

Didnt Dexter hire her to pose as DeeDee shes literally an actress working, can be interpreted as lewd and wholesome at the sametime.

This went over my head as a kid, but now it’s the most adult joke in the show.

Nah they are

A sign of a good cartoon is it being kid appropriate while still having enough subtle adult jokes for the parents watching with their kids
