While animated shows like Gremlins: Secrets of the Mogwai and Netflix's Skull Island continue to expand the legacy of great horror movies, they're not the first nor weirdest of their kind. It's surprisingly common for horror movies to receive animated adaptations with younger audiences in mind. However, for better or worse, various horror-inspired cartoons were created for Saturday Morning and continue to be developed. Although some horror-inspired adaptations may have been odd, they served as an entry point for young enthusiasts and acted as a bridge connecting them with the larger horror fandom.

While horror is sometimes thought to be too frightening or questionable for children, it naturally appeals to all age groups. Some horror franchises, like Gremlins, successfully cater to younger audiences by adapting their source material to be more palatable.

When The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder debuted last year on Disney+, it called back to the bygone era of Black TV sitcoms in which its 2001 Disney Channel predecessor shined. One where Black families, culture and people were not only celebrated on the small screens in living rooms across the country, but the central focal point of multiple simultaneously airing (though mostly live-action) series.

Its return on Feb. 3, however, pointed to a stunning reality. While the original series aired in the 2000s alongside a handful of animated kids shows also featuring Black leads, including Filmore!, Static Shock, Tutenstein and Little Bill, there has since been only a handful of animated shows aimed at non-adult audiences that explicitly center Black leads and, more specifically, their families.
