Unlike the others, Cow and Chicken actually delivered.
Also in powerpuff girls 10th anniversary special. Although not a complete reveal.
And you didn’t need much imagination to figure out what mammy looked like (very racist depiction)
Weren’t their parents literally a pair of legs with no tops?
Tom and Jerry owner is revealed tho
That’s not the owner, that’s the housekeeper. The owners of the house, and Tom, are a white husband and wife.
He had a face reveal in the SNES game that apparently martches the action figure.
His arm looks thinner than I remember. Has he been working out?
They actually revealed his face in the action figure line when i was like 4 (25 years ago). Generic non threatening looking angry bald dude:X I remember seeing a pack marked as doctor claw and my world was blown!
I always assumed that his face looked like the M.A.D. logo.
Or any adult at all in the Peanuts / Charlie Brown / Snoopy shows/movies. Never saw them, nor heard them voice. Just that muffled trumpet droning sound.
And Nanny from Muppet Babies.
Also Nanny from Muppet Babies
the faces are so generic they don’t even render them
(Insert trombone sound)
Is there some reason they chose to draw them like this? Does anyone with more knowledge than me about making movies or cartoons have an explanation?
It’s a creative choice. The show is from the perspective of the children so many adults are portrayed to be so distant that you don’t even see their faces.
The first instance of this trope I can recall is the Charlie Brown cartoons where you neither see the teacher at all and can’t even understand what the teacher is saying. It’s just an off screen voice saying MWAW MEH MWAW MEH MWAW. But the children do understand the teacher, but the teacher is just a weird presence that the children have to appease.
Basically the adults don’t understand what’s going on with the world of the kids. They’re aren’t all that relevant to the story but if they aren’t portrayed at all then you’d wonder “where are the adults?” So they exist but aren’t important to the story.
Also children can imagine the adults to be their own parents if their faces aren’t shown. Makes it feel like the children in the show could be the siblings to the kids that are watching.
What is top right from?
Proud Family
Bottom right don’t have faces.
As a kid it wasn’t Mrs Belumm’s face I wanted to see
Nah just the wrong aspect ratio. These classics were intended for 4:3 not 16:9
