One of the best shows of that era was the '90s Spider-Man cartoon, originally on Fox Kids and now on Disney+! A little off-base, but hear me out.

It was definitely a kids show, but it had some mature aspects and dark themes while straddling a line with the censors, and to me at least, they seemed to work within the censors instead of fighting them! If the censors for the cartoon didn't allow those involved to mimic the comics precisely, then you find some creative way to work around it.

This is what the Rangerverse was good at doing back in the day, even during the Disney Era.

Neo-Saban belittled children and was too focused on straddling lines, be it with Nick or with how seasons were organized and numbered or with modern-day censors. They didn't focus on things that made that Spider-Man cartoon good: drama, character development, good writing, respectable plots, action that doesn't stray too far off course.

Hasbro hasn't actually struck out on their own yet, but time will tell if they can. I've seen what they have done recently, like with Transformers Cyberverse, and I am convinced that Hasbro knows how to craft a decent kids show and still work within the restrictions, making a season that appeals to all ages.
