| Language: | In the 1961 film The Rebel Without Claws, the word "damn" is used twice. Also, in the 1941 short The Fighting 69th ½, a swear was supposedly mouthed. |
| Sexual Themes and Nudity: | Hardly any, but in two cartoons, characters are seen reading parodies of Esquire, which was considered quite racy back upon the cartoons' release. |
| Drugs and Alcohol: | If you consider tobacco to be in this category, well, yes. Many characters including Rocky and Mugsy, often are seen smoking from pipes. Also, in the famous 1955 short One Froggy Evening, in order to attract more customers, the man who finds the singing frog holds up a sign reading "FREE BEER". |
| Crude Humor or Comic Mischief: | This series was built on crude mischief. Characters experience so much of this that it even went so far as to have Porky Pig be hit with a WB shield in the 1938 short Porky in Wackyland. |
