There's a line that SpongeBob/Viacom has crossed many times when it comes to grossout though.
If Viacom didn't cross those lines when Ren and Stimpy was the thing, then I don't see HOW it could have happened now.
@Ferls: It's either gross stuff or macho actiony stuff. Nick, for one, managed to grasp that by greenlighting a lot of wacky comedies with gross-out touches - the R&S recipe - back in the 90s.

Little kids loving gross stuff is a fact. I know jokes about piss, farts, and boogers were hilarious to little me.
Since SpongeBob is for kids, then it's doing its job when it includes grossout jokes. The adult autists bitching about them aren't the target audience.

Viacom is a large broadcasting company with many subsidiaries. While parent companies do have control, you can't blame every single thing on them. Viacom is more involved with the business sides. Sure, they may want to tinker with the things their companies put out to keep everything in their best interests, but I doubt there are Viacom bigwigs editing pus jokes into Spongebob while laughing maniacally.

But you see, people love to blame Viacom because MrEnter's channel got taken down! That's why!

I meant SpongeBob/Nickelodeon. Either way, I'm sure they can do just fine without grossout
Kids like it, though.
Um, what line? As Teddy pointed out, if there was one, then R&S already crossed it and shot it full of holes.
Tom and Jerry must blow your mind man.

Ren and Stimpy example, as many other users have said.
Also, congratulations on this accomplishment.

Tom and Jerry isn't anywhere near OCM badness, even with its suicide gags.
Let's just ignore Blue Cat Blues where both Tom and Jerry kill themselves...
Two things:
- What's OCM mean?
- What does Tom & Jerry have to do with the whole "Thin line with Nick/SpongeBob/Viacom being sickos" thing you talk about? Yeah T&J got away with what they did because it was both made in a time where such things were acceptable and was skewered to an older audience. Besides, if Enter should complain about how sick SpongeBob is, he should take a look at Suds again and see how that holds up for him. Two bucks says he'll be his usual hypocritical self.

OCM stands for One Coarse Meal.
@Jewelsmakerguy: Suicide jokes are underused these days.
I recall there was a particularly funny one in "Haunted House," the Ren and Stimpy episode. He'd flip out over that one.
It's hard to call out SpongeBob for its gross out humor - which was there even in the early episodes, mind you - when R&S did worse. And while it wasn't technically a Nicktoon, the first episode of APC was nothing but gross out gags. (Unfunny gross out gags, that is, but I am ahead of myself.)

Suicide jokes aren't inherently bad, they just shouldn't be used as badly as in One Coarse Meal.
How should they be used? Enter argues that they shouldn't be used at all and are inherently bad.
Enter should have a crossover with the Cinema Snob and see some really disturbing shit..
