OH!OH!OH! I've got this one!
Okay, well, see - the 80's were a time when society got really concerned with the content on television and what it was doing to people's psyches since we were watching A LOT of it. In America, a common phrase was "TV Rots Your Brain". Consequently, "Concerned Mothers (aka Bored Moms)" started monitoring what their kids were watching and - DID. NOT. APPROVE. This happened in Japan as well; if you watch 70's kid's shows vs 80's kid shows vs 90's kid's shows - the mid-late 80's shows are definitely "holding back" - though, compared to the garbage American kids had, it's still a good cut above in the excitement department. American TV was all around pretty awful in the 80's, that's why hipsters love it!
