Top 10 Most Controversial Cartoon Characters

Characters who were considered controversial at some point in time.

The Top Ten
  1. Eric Cartman (South Park)

    Eric Theodore Cartman, commonly known by his last name, is a central character in the animated series South Park.

    For all y'all who think Bart is badder than Cartman, watch the season finale that says Family Guy has dolphins make up the plot line. Cartman meets Bart, and he's like, What's the worst thing you've ever done? Bart's like, One time I slingshotted the teacher, and Cartman said all this stuff. I don't remember it all, but one was ending a whole race of lobsters. Then, at the end, Bart is just like, Dude, and he runs away or something.

    Eric Cartman is the most controversial character here. Bart Simpson isn't controversial at all. Dora the Explorer isn't controversial either. Do you even know the definition of controversial? Cartman has been a second Hitler in one episode. That's the most controversial I can think of.

  2. Bart Simpson (The Simpsons)

    Bartholomew JoJo "Bart" Simpson is the eldest child and only son in the animated television series The Simpsons, which premiered in December 1989. He was created by Matt Groening.

    Bart is known for prank-calling Moe's Tavern, skateboarding, and using catchphrases such as "Eat my shorts!" His mischief... read more

    Bart Simpson is controversial, considering he's always breaking the rules and the law: he sawed off the head of a statue, he destroyed Willie's shack, and was even sent to juvenile hall.

    Bart isn't controversial. Homer is the controversial one.

  3. Jessica Rabbit (Who Framed Roger Rabbit)

    Jessica Rabbit is a fictional character from the novel Who Censored Roger Rabbit? by Gary K. Wolf and its loose film adaptation, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, released in 1988. She is portrayed as the glamorous and devoted wife of Roger Rabbit. In the film, she was voiced by Kathleen Turner, while Amy Irving... read more

    She is the most controversial and one of the most sexist characters in cartoons, and even really very pornographic.

  4. George Liquor (Ren & Stimpy)

    George Liquor is a cartoon character created by John Kricfalusi, best known as the creator of The Ren & Stimpy Show. The character debuted in the early 1990s and later starred in The Goddamn George Liquor Program, one of the first web-exclusive cartoon series.

    I think he only got controversy through his last name. Otherwise, he's basically as controversial as the show itself.

  5. Peter Griffin (Family Guy)

    Peter Griffin is the main protagonist and titular character of the American animated sitcom Family Guy. Peter is known for being foolish and doing random things for the sake of comedy. His wife, Lois Griffin, often nags him. He didn't pass the third grade, and his father is an Irish man.... read more

    Almost everything Peter Griffin says or does is offensive.

  6. Silver Spooner (Dexter's Laboratory)

    Stewart Gilligan "Stewie" Griffin is a main character from the animated television series Family Guy. He's the youngest child of Peter and Lois Griffin and the brother of Meg and Chris... read more

  8. Porygon (Pokemon)

    Porygon, known in Japan by the same name, is a Normal-type Pokémon that first appeared in Pokémon Red and Blue. It is an artificial Pokémon capable of converting its body into digital data. This ability allows it to move freely through cyberspace, making it a unique entry in the Pokédex.

    Porygon does not deserve the controversy he gets. It's actually Pikachu that caused over 600 people to be hospitalized.

  9. The Crows (Dumbo)

    Were deemed racist even though they were never intended to be racist.

  10. Apu Nahasapeemapetilon (The Simpsons)

    I don't think he's a character anymore because of racism and stereotypes.

    I like Apu, and that makes sense because Apu is racist.

    King Andrias (Amphibia)

    Sailor Uranus is a fictional character in the Sailor Moon media franchise. Her civilian identity is Haruka Tenoh, and she is one of the Outer Sailor Guardians. Sailor Uranus is known for her strength, speed, and deep bond with Sailor Neptune.

  24. Tom (Tom & Jerry)

    A lot of people would say Tom and Jerry aren't controversial. I disagree. During the 1930s, a lot of the antics by the characters featured racial stereotypes. For instance, after explosions, the characters' faces would often resemble stereotypical Blacks with large lips.

    Honestly, those cartoons are long banned.

  25. Jynx (Pokemon)

    Jynx, known in Japan as Rougela, is a dual-type Ice and Psychic Pokémon introduced in Generation I.

  29. Beverly Bighead (Rocko's Modern Life)

    Beverly "Bev" Bighead is a fictional character in the cartoon series Rocko's Modern Life and the comic book series of the same name. She is the loud and assertive wife of Ed Bighead and a neighbor of the show's main character, Rocko. Bev often displays a more nurturing side than her grumpy husband.

    No joke, she gives someone an almost Minerva Mink-level foot fetish tease in the episode "Leap Frogs."
