ok im not in the storm hawks fandom literally dont even know what that show is but i thought you were fucking kidding when you said the main plot is dark enough to be on par with game of thrones until you reblogged that unnerving trivia post like wtf this was a kids show?!?!?

This show was only a kids show because the networks wanted it to be. It could've been an R-rated sci-fi/fantasy series about the horrors of war by just taking itself more seriously. Easily.

#Storm Hawks #of all the kids shows to get pearl-clutchy over they sure picked a doozy huh?#though iirc I'm pretty sure it was marketed as a *family* show #which is very different from a *kids* show #but I could be wrong it's been years I don't even have cable anymore #teens humping? a cardinal sin you need to burn in hell for #pseudo-cannibalism and using corpses as power-displays? that's fine kids love that shit #the only reason my works are more ''problematic'' than canon #is because I am an adult making content for other adults so I actually *show* the fucked up stuff instead of just alluding to it #but I'm sorry rape happens in war #and this is a show about war #it is genuinely not that big a stretch to say Mr. Moss probably got handsy with Aerrow when he was in the prison #'cause hey buddy guess what tends to happen to prisoners of war!!#keep in mind this show came out in 2007 when they would rerun goosebumps every October #so this was back when networks thought kids could have a little horror #as a treat #ngl we need to bring that back because I firmly believe introducing kids to age-appropriate horror helps media literacy
