Banned cartoons in different countries. I am publishing a complete list of banned cartoons. The Adventures of Lolo the Penguin

Law “Introduces a ban on information that causes fear, horror and panic in children, as well as justifies violence and illegal behavior. It is unacceptable to disseminate uncontrolled information that can make children want to use drugs, alcohol or incite them to harm their lives and health.”

Everything seems to be logical and correct. Of course, as a father, I support this law and hope that after its implementation, harmful information on the Internet and television will decrease. However, today I read in the news what kind of "infa" will be banned from viewing and I wonder. At first I thought it was a duck from the opposition media.

The list of contraindicated for viewing includes cartoons "Well, you wait!" and "Cheburashka and Crocodile Gena". Could you imagine that someday the most beloved cartoons of our childhood will be censored due to the fact that the wolf and the crocodile, it turns out, promote smoking?! Have any of us who grew up on these cartoons started drinking and smoking, inspired by the example of our favorite characters?!

Now these cartoons fall into the "18+" category, and they can only be shown after 23:00. To show these cartoons in the program "Good night, kids!" of them will have to remove prohibited scenes, reports "Interfax". What are forbidden scenes? How does a wolf uncork a Cider, or how does a crocodile play chess with a pipe in its mouth? That is, our children will be shown a pathetic parody of good and beloved domestic cartoons without "harmful scenes"? With a crocodile, it still didn’t go anywhere, but how can you imagine a wolf as an exemplary family man ?!

Well, if so, then why are we petty? It is worth banning or cutting up most of Soyuzmultfilm's cartoons, and send the studio itself to the list of "unwanted to be shown." How much our children have to go through, watching the cartoons of our childhood, it’s just creepy!

I decided to help the "censors" and made my list of cartoons not intended for viewing during the daytime. Here's the first thing that came to mind.

1. "Well, wait a minute", 1969
Promotion of hooliganism, unhealthy lifestyle, animal abuse.

2. "Cheburashka and Crocodile Gena" 1969 and 1971
Promotion of smoking and cruelty to animals.

3. "Carlson, who lives on the roof", 1955
Promotion of gluttony, smoking, cruelty to animals, corruption of minors.

4. "Hedgehog in the Fog", 1975
You thought this was a quivering cartoon about finding a friend in the fog? An no.
This is just "information that causes horror, panic and fear in children." What are the nightmares that the hedgehog had to endure while he got to the bear cub.

5. "Winnie the Pooh and everything, everything", 1969
Again, propaganda of gluttony - Carlson had jam, Winnie had honey ("which is cooler, honey or raspberries?").
Well, for the replica of Eeyore "in and out" the cartoon should definitely be listed in the 18+ category. By the way, the donkey, it turns out, is also indecently brought up - without much embarrassment it shows its backside (that is, the absence of a tail) - propaganda of immoral behavior as it is.

6. Bremen Town Musicians, 1969
Promotion of prostitution, hooliganism, vagrancy, gambling. By the way, the heroine's dress is too short. The abuse of eggs can lead to salmonellosis - hence the promotion of unhealthy food ("McDonald's" is resting). And in one of the songs there are such lines "we love to kill and beat the buckets ... we are robbers - bang bang and you are dead" - propaganda of violence and terrorism is obvious.

7. "The Adventures of the Little Pig", 1986
Kidnapping of children, use of child slave labor (in this case, work in a circus), as well as the illegal use of firearms.

8. "Three from Prostokvashino", 1978
Promotion of vagrancy, as well as smoking and illegal possession of property (house in the village). Sharik carried a gun - again, irreparable harm to the child's psyche. Cut out!

9. I don't remember what kind of cartoon it is, tell me. Well, everything is clear here - erotic scenes, immoral behavior.

10. "Monkeys", 1987
These little provocateurs will obviously teach children something bad. And also a song from a cartoon with the lines: "in every little child, both a boy and a girl, there are two hundred grams of explosives or even half a kilo" - this is at least propaganda of terrorism.

* * *
Well, the most favorite undesirable for viewing is "Once upon a time there was a dog", 1982.
Here you have hooliganism, and gluttony, and alcohol. Kidnapping of babies, cruelty to animals, orgies, I admit that drugs also took place that night, because simply from overeating the wolf would not have betrayed his own, which has become winged, "I'll sing right now."

But seriously, let's work together - the state and parents - to protect our children from really harmful and dangerous information, which is now full of not only on the Internet and on TV, but also on the street, and we will leave good and dear cartoon films alone and let our children grow up on them, and not on foreign "The Simpsons" or "Futurama".

I enjoyed watching our cartoons.

AT Russian Federation The law “On the Protection of Children from Information Harmful to Health and Development” came into force. Strange as it may seem, the most popular and favorite Soviet cartoons for children and adults came under attack.

According to official statements, this was done as a preventive measure in the method of educating a new generation: protecting children's consciousness from extremely negative influences under the sauce of innocent cartoon characters and plots.

Each of the banned cartoons was commented on the reasons for being blacklisted.

1. "Well, wait a minute!" (1969)

In connection with the powerful promotion of smoking, unhealthy lifestyles, homosexuality, hooliganism, and animal abuse.

2. "Cheburashka and Crocodile Gena" (1969, 1971)

Similarly: promotion of smoking, inhumane treatment of animals, fraud.

3. "Carlson, who lives on the roof" (1955)

One of those cartoons that is marked as "especially unfavorable for viewing by minors" and, as it turned out, actually promotes smoking, cruelty to animals, hooliganism, gluttony, and corruption of minors.

4. "Hedgehog in the Fog" (1975)

Seemingly harmless cartoon, more soothing than inciting criminal behavior, was condemned on the grounds of "broadcasting information that causes genuine horror and nightmare in children"

5. "Winnie the Pooh and all-all-all" (1969)

Such an analogue of "Carlson", where the characters also cultivate gluttony, immoral behavior, ambiguous hints. Especially note the phrase of the donkey "in and out" and the episode when he shows his tailless ass without embarrassment.

6. "The Bremen Town Musicians" (1969)

It is also an extremely harmful cartoon that promotes not only an unhealthy lifestyle (the king's abuse of eggs, which can lead to salmonellosis), hooliganism, but also vagrancy, prostitution, and the easy accessibility of girls. The censors are still very embarrassed by the princess' outfit, shorter than any cocktail dress, and in addition her hairstyle - two cute ponytails - create an image of such an accessible spicy girl. And, of course, the songs that sound behind the scenes in every way sing of terrorism, a riotous lifestyle.

7. "The Adventures of Pig Funtik" (1986)

Also dangerous for children's clear consciousness is the cartoon, which openly shows the impunity of the exploitation of child labor, the use of firearms.

8. "Three from Prostokvashino" (1978)

Demonstration of typical disrespect and non-observance of the rights to private property. Of course, vagrancy, unauthorized carrying of weapons.

9. Return of the Prodigal Parrot (1984)

Promotion of hooliganism, smoking, fraud, cruelty to animals.

10. Once upon a time there was a dog (1982)

Recognized as particularly undesirable for showing because of the upbringing of hooligan behavior, cruelty to animals, gluttony. Also propaganda of alcohol, drugs, orgies, kidnapping of babies for selfish purposes.

Now these cartoons can be seen on TV only after 23.00. while South Park, "House -2" and other similar depraved programs are broadcast in the middle of the day.

Whether you are a child or an adult, there are probably cartoons that you watch with delight. Unfortunately, there are those among them that you could not see in some countries for strange reasons.

Editorial website found an explanation why popular cartoons are banned in different countries.

16. Winnie the Pooh

Where prohibited: China.

Cause: the resemblance of the protagonist to the leader of the country.

Measures: the cartoon and the animated series are banned from being shown in the country.

It all started with innocent memes from the Internet space, where the bear was compared to Chinese President Xi Jinping. This cute honey eater is painfully similar to him in the photographs and, according to the Chinese users themselves, even in character.

15. Peppa Pig

Where prohibited: Australia.

Cause: teaches to be friends with dangerous insects.

Measures: banned from showing in the country.

The cute cartoon was banned in Australia after the release of the series, where a new resident appeared in the house of pink pigs - the spider Thin Legs. For the rest of the world, it turned out to be a rather instructive series about friendship between people and insects. But not for the most southern places of our planet, where more than 10,000 species of spiders live, and among them there are many poisonous ones. Therefore, Australians are definitely against warm relations with these eight-legged creatures.

14. Pokémon

Where prohibited: Japan, Turkey, Arab League.

Cause: harm to the health of children.

Measures: The episode was banned from air.

In one of the series of children's anime, the creators demonstrated the explosion in a very unusual way. : Vibrant flashing of red and blue colors on the screen at a frequency of about 12 Hz. After that, children in different parts of the country began to complain to their parents about the deterioration of their health, in some cases the symptoms reached partial loss of vision, convulsions and loss of consciousness. More than 600 children were taken to the hospital. The episode was taken off the air around the world, naming the incident "The Pokemon Shock".

13. Spongebob

Where prohibited: USA, Russia, Europe, Australia, and later the cartoon was partially banned from showing in more than 120 countries.

Cause: violence and profanity.

Measures: banned from showing in many countries. The suicide episode has been taken off the air.

Cartoons are supposed to be educational in nature and should promote the positive aspects of personality. In Bikini Bottom, each character is endowed with their own negative feature. And wherein there is no explicit punishment for the misdeeds, thinking, or attitudes of the characters: they get away with a lot. This is probably why many countries do not want to teach this to their future generations.

12. Miracles on bends

Where prohibited: first in the USA and Japan, and then all over the world.

Cause: false ideas about the law, propaganda of stereotypical thinking about Asian countries.

Measures: the series was banned worldwide, episode 2 was banned in Japan and was subject to a temporary ban in the United States.

In one episode, Baloo had to transport a gift box that contained a bomb. And the bear came out unscathed thanks to ignorance of the contents of the package. Thus, here children are shown the opposite effect of the rule "ignorance of the law is no excuse".

The second controversial episode, which was temporarily taken off the air, is called "City Beyond the Horizon". In the story, the warlike pandas use Baloo to locate a hidden city for a subsequent attack. Many saw here an analogy with real historical events.

11. Tom and Jerry

Where prohibited: the whole world.

Cause: smoking, drinking harmful substances and alcohol, violence.

Measures: partial ban of some series, deletion of scenes, replacement of characters.

Over the course of half a century of broadcasting, many scenes deemed offensive were cut, re-voiced or completely taken off the air, as they showed the specific life of America in the 40s.

But, according to many, the main problem of the cartoon is unpunished violence. If the cat Tom periodically gets for his pranks, then Jerry can endlessly bully the blue cat and not get any negative attitude from the audience, since he is initially considered a good character.

10. The Simpsons

Where prohibited: first the United States, Brazil, and then the rest of the world.

Cause: violence, undermining family values, hooliganism, insulting public figures, countries.

Measures: individual episodes have been taken off the air in different countries.

There is a lot of controversy in the USA about the provocative animated series, mainly on the basis of the decay of family values ​​and inadequate behavior for children (using Bart as an example).

The Rio Tourism Department found one episode incredibly offensive and threatened the creators with a lawsuit. . According to the plot, the heroes end up in a Brazilian city, which is presented in the form of a jungle, where monkeys jump. This episode is never shown in Brazil.

Despite the thirst for freedom of expression, the authors of the series are very loyal to individual countries. Homer does not drink beer or eat bacon in UAE broadcasts. And the Vatican itself recognizes the animated series as “realistic and smart”, thanks to which adults can watch cartoons again.

9. Beavis and Butt-head

Where prohibited: the whole world.

Cause: hooliganism, causing grievous bodily harm under the influence of the cartoon.

Measures: the series is banned worldwide.

This animated series promoted little useful, but one of the series went beyond. In an episode called "Comedians" they showed how funny burning things can be. This affected one 5-year-old kid in the USA: trying to repeat the pranks of the characters, the child burned down his house with his little sister locked inside.

8. Looney Tunes

Where prohibited: the whole world.

Cause: alcohol consumption.

Measures: taken off the air by the creators.

We are talking about the already famous One beer series. The characters in this episode set out to steal and empty a bottle of beer from their parents' refrigerator. What, according to the authors, this series should teach little tomboys remains a mystery. However, the series was banned from showing, but they kept it on DVD. Here are two measures.

7. Gravity Falls

Where prohibited: Russia.

Cause: propaganda of bad habits, violence, pornography.

Measures: removal of obscene scenes, partial replacement of replicas.

The cartoon itself can be seen on Russian TV screens, but not in its full form. The degree of jokes is reduced, the scenes are cut and the age limit is set to 12+. So, for example, in the 2nd episode, Dipper accidentally lies on the bra of Wendy (15-year-old heroine). This fragment turned out to be too frank for the audience. But his removal did not affect the plot too much.

6. The Adventures of Lolo the Penguin

Where prohibited: USA.

Cause: inconsistency of characters and plot with the mentality of the audience.

Measures: deleting scenes, replacing characters' reactions, partial replacement of lines, changing the storyline.

No, you do not think that the cartoon beloved by many is available to the American audience. True, with significant edits. Of the three full-fledged series, American animators have collected one cartoon with a very illogical plot.

All the unpleasant and sad moments from the cartoon were cut out, even the death of Lolo's dad, which reflects the special nature of the character, the animators decided to remove. In the scene where the teacher penguin collapses in front of his "class", the students' calm reaction is changed to merriment.

5. Cartoons featuring Donald Duck

Where prohibited: Finland.

Cause: pornography, propaganda of false values.

Measures: all cartoons with duck characters are banned in the country.

Back in the 70s of the last century, a comic book with a funny Disney duck disappeared from the Finnish shelves - and all because of Donald's refusal to wear pants. The Helsinki Committee for Youth Affairs believes that these cartoons distort family values, threaten morality and promote an unhealthy attraction to money.

4. Shrek 2

Where prohibited: Russia.

The reasons: promotion of vagrancy, smoking, hooliganism.

Measures:

Beloved by many, the animal suffered the fate of street musicians. During the night in a telephone booth, he was recognized as a person without a fixed place of residence. Yes, and smoking a good-natured crocodile does not pass the age limit. Despite the statement of the authors that air bubbles fly out of the tube of Crocodile Gena, the cartoon falls under the time limit of the show.

1. Well, wait a minute!

Where prohibited: Russia.

Cause: promotion of smoking, drinking alcohol, hooliganism.

Measures: prohibited from being shown from 6:00 to 23:00; if demonstrated at a prohibited time, it is subject to dismantling with the removal of obscene scenes.

The Russian analogue of the cartoon "Tom and Jerry" is also accused of excessive violence, hooliganism, smoking, drinking alcohol, and some especially attentive experts saw an unusual relationship between the two characters.

All this bunch of things to come psychological disorders on Russian TV channels can be seen after 23:00. In the daytime, the cartoon can only be shown without prohibited "immoral" scenes.

Why do Ukraine and Russia so fiercely want to protect children from cartoons.

Cartoon scandals broke out in Ukraine and Russia.

The National Moral Expert Commission checks "SpongeBob" for propaganda of homosexuality, and in Russia new law prohibits "Well, wait a minute!" for promoting smoking.

Television workers are counting losses, writers and public figures hope that "the idiocy will end" soon.

And psychologists assure that it is not cartoons that cause more harm to children, but adults and their life example.

cartoon law

In Russia, on September 1, the law "On the Protection of Children from Information Harmful to Their Health and Development" came into force. He was supposed to protect them from violence and propaganda of bad habits from the screens, but according to the criteria of the law, even cartoons were banned.

• READ:

The TV people were the first to sound the alarm: and it will be shown after 23:00. The reason is the smoking wolf.

Here is a far from complete list of cartoons that, in the light of the law, can be considered harmful to children.

Wait for it!

The wolf promotes smoking and hooliganism - paragraph 2 of part 2 of article 5 of the law

"Although the Wolf smokes in "Just you wait!", he is a negative character, with whom the bad habit is associated."

General Director of TMK-Media Alexander Mitroshenkov.

"This wolf is very similar to a person with borderline personality disorder. He wants relationships, he strives for them, but, due to his nature, he cannot. This is an occasion to learn so much about relationships, about people, about his nature, about what to do when I'm angry."

Child psychotherapist Albina Loktionova.

"Crocodile Gena"

Crocodile Gena smokes a pipe - item 2, part 2, article 5

Cheburashka is engaged in vagrancy - he lives in a telephone booth. - clause 2, part 2, article 5

"Cheburashka is allegedly an incomprehensible non-existent animal that threatens children's consciousness."

Vice President Russian Society psychologists Alexander Asmolov

"Three from Prostokvashino"

Uncle Fyodor leaves home and undermines family values. - item 4, part 2, article 5

"The Bremen Town Musicians"

As a call to vagrancy, one can consider the words from the song: "Our roof - the sky is blue ...". - clause 2, part 2, article 5

"Baby and Carlson"

An adult man shows interest in the boy and asks to hide their relationship from their parents. Propaganda of pedophilia. - item 4, part 2, article 5

"Alice in Wonderland"

Addiction propaganda: the heroine eats hallucinogenic mushrooms and psychotropic drugs - clause 2, part 2, article 5

© kiti-kit.blog.ru

"Kolobok"

Should be banned for children under six years of age, as it contains "an unnaturalistic image or description of physical ... violence" and the condition "the triumph of good over evil" is not met. - Article 7

© home-edu.ru

"Tom and Jerry"

Banned from showing under 16 due to scenes of violence and mutilation without judgment and compassion for the victim. - Art. 9

“When Jerry the mouse cut Tom’s cat into sausage pieces, and then Tom “folded up” again and ran from these pieces, then the idea may appear in the child’s mind that a similar experiment can be carried out with his own cat. But with the right information and upbringing of the child, it won't happen."

Child psychologist of the Dobrobut Medical Network Ekaterina Goltzberg.

Criticism

Cartoon-censorship forced cultural figures to take up arms. The famous cartoonist Harry Bardin called the Russian law obscurantism: "Let's protect children from the street where they smoke, drink, stagger incomprehensible, but very real characters, and children see all this every day!".

"By the way, I have Gena the crocodile, whom some have already taken up arms against, he does not smoke a pipe, but blows soap bubbles from a pipe, so there is nothing harmful here. ... This is idiocy, which should end soon."

Writer Eduard Uspensky

"To ban such cartoons, which are classics of domestic animation, is the same as to ban vodka in Russia," says Eduard Uspensky, the father of Cheburashka and Prostokvashino.

Psychologists also objected. "The cartoon "Well, wait a minute!" is one of the brightest children's works of art, which gives children the opportunity for imagination and development. Therefore, I have no psychological contraindications for such cartoons," said Alexander Asmolov, vice president of the Russian Society of Psychologists.

"If you sort through the heroes of Soviet cartoons, on which, by the way, those who are fighting for their ban were brought up, then there will be practically no one left with whom it is worth being friends. Vrungel smokes incessantly, Carlson calls not to obey his parents, Kesha's parrot tirelessly watches detectives on TV, Baron Munchausen is constantly lying ... ”, - Ekaterina Goltzberg, a child psychologist of the Dobrobut Medical Network, lists with irony.

"Society, in periods of total loss of morality, tries to impose increased censorship on itself. But especially zealous champions of morality are often people who have serious problems in their relationship with morality."

Child psychologist Ekaterina Goltzberg.

"Practically in any work you can see some meaning, it all depends on the angle of view and awareness of the child about the phenomenon. And if we look at everything through the prism of our critical" adult "morality, then in our world there will be no cartoons, no fairy tales, no the miracle of the transformation from Cinderella to Princess,” she says.

Accusations of believers

In Ukraine, cartoons are not yet monitored at the legislative level, but they are going to check them for harmfulness. The creators of the brochure "Cartoons. A Threat to Our Children" addressed the National Expert Commission on the Protection of Public Morals, as well as the President and the Verkhovna Rada.

In about the propaganda of homosexuality, sadism, perversion, the collapse of the family in "Masha and the Bear", "Luntik", "Sponge Bob". Even Disney cartoons did not regret it.

And the Russian information and analytical portal "Christian View" warns of the dangers of "Madagascar".

"Madagascar"

Teaches idleness.

"The plot of Madagascar is subconsciously shaping future bar patrons and street revelers."

"Christian View".

"Masha and the Bear"

"Juvenile cartoon", teaches disobedience and wrong family relationships.

"Children will imitate the main character and crawl out on your head."

From the brochure "Cartoons. A Threat to Our Children".

"You can tell a child what a mischievous girl Masha is, how badly she behaves. Children are not stupid, they understand everything."

Tatyana Przhegodskaya, an employee of the State Puppet Museum.

"Spongebob"

Homosexual propaganda

"SpongeBob is liked by homosexuals."

"Teletubbies"

Homosexual propaganda

"One of the Teletubby Boys is wearing a women's purse and a dress."

From the brochure "Cartoons. A Threat to Our Children".

Expert opinion

“It so happened historically that society, in periods of total loss of morality, tries to impose increased censorship on itself. But especially zealous champions of morality and morality are often just people who have serious problems in their personal history in their relationship with morality,” explains psychologist Ekaterina Goltzberg.

• READ:

She is surprised that the "wrong" cartoons were worried just when real life astonishes with its terrible discoveries.

"Violence in one form or another is observed in every fourth family," the psychologist cites terrible statistics and emphasizes that the child receives a clear life example from his parents.

"After all, unlike cartoon characters, real parents directly influence the formation of the child's personality and its value orientations," says Ekaterina Goltzberg.

An expert in child psychology, an employee of the State Puppet Museum in Kyiv, Tatyana Przhegodskaya is against bans.

"You can't limit yourself to cartoons alone. There should be general program raising a child. The child should see both positive and negative examples in life. Everything must be dosed. I am for an integrated approach. You won't achieve anything by banning."

Psychologist Ekaterina Goltzberg explains: "The point is not what kind of cartoons children watch, but that at that moment there are no adults next to them who can explain the essence of phenomena and give them a correct moral and ethical assessment."

"Can a mother with a cigarette in her hands explain to a child that smoking is harmful? Of course not! After all, her personal example is the most effective. But a non-smoking mother, using the example of a smoking wolf from" Well, you wait! she is an example.

Reaction

After the hype around the multifilms, officials assured that the fate of "Well, you wait!" out of danger - there will be no cut scenes from the cartoon, and in general it can be considered an artistic value and shown in the daytime.

Representatives of the Federal Service for Supervision of Communications, Information Technology and mass communications promised that they would give online recommendations on the implementation of the law and conduct expert examinations of cartoons.

But the Russian TV channel "2+2" has already begun to "retouch" the cartoons. Television companies are forced to spend a lot of money to censor "illegal" places in cartoons - to dub again, to cut out some frames. It will be necessary to separately coordinate the interference with the work with the copyright holders. The loss of TV channels in the Russian press was estimated at millions of rubles.

The National Commission on Morality of Ukraine reported that in a couple of months they would issue a verdict on the morality of the cartoons. At the same time, they assured that they did not react to dubious brochures, but to the appeal of a certain journalist.

"Nothing bad will happen to such a cartoon as Masha and the Bear," assured Pavel Unguryan, a member of the Verkhovna Rada and a member of the National Commission for the Protection of Morality.
