"Why do you watch kid shows rather than stuff for adults?"
Because kids shows have:
Clean humor that won't make me uncomfortable
Jokes that aren't related to sex, drugs, death or politics
Almost no mention of current events and things that I would like to avoid hearing about in my leisure time
Characters that like each other and treat each other kindly
Plots that hold morals, determination, teamwork and love in high regard, rather than being nihilistic about everything
Interesting and emotional plots that aren't slice of life or sitcom-based
Or drama that relies on real emotion and arcs rather than overdone melodrama and 'who's sleeping with who'
And creative settings and concepts that adult shows would be afraid to use for fear of seeming juvenile.
They're more likely to include queer characters, and those characters will not be reduced to sex jokes.
Romance, if it exists, is treated as a minor plot point and not the end of a character arc.
Actually good character design and animation.
Found family and strong friendships instead of 'group of people that are constantly backstabbing each other and don't seem to actually like each other much'
No gratuitous violence
