Gargoyles was apparently Disney.
IDK about BW so I won't argue about that
Batman could have aired on a different timeslot, as timeslots also need to be taken in account. You're not going to run a gory or violent show right after sesamestreet (Though we Dutchies had a riot when they had a vaginal cream advertisement IMMEDIATELY after sesamestreet) not to mention the studio might have limited what the animators could do. Wolverine was only allowed to use claws on Sentinels in the Xmen show back then too. There are more factors than just 'the channel it was on'

Batman TAS aired at prime time originally and Gargoyles was syndicated.

I have no clue what Prime time is, and I also mentioned it might be the directors for the shows themselves as Marvel's shows were significantly more censored in those aspects.



MEANWHILE BATMAN BEYOND CENSORED JOKER'S DEATH MAKING IT 50 TIMES MORE GRUESOME
Not trying to make a Marvel vs DC thing, but Batman Beyond was something Marvel simply couldn't compete to. Spiderman Unlimited didn't even get a second season iirc

Late afternoon-night timeslot think around 5-7ish PM.

In that case, Batman aired quite late, meaning they could get away with more stuff, unlike an 4PM show

Yup and Gargoyles was syndicated it aired on more than just Fox.

And BW probably got away with it because they're robots.

Probably the case as again, Wolverine was only allowed to use his claws on Sentinels, not humans/mutants. Kain, I don't want to be rude, but I think you should look into the examples you want to bring up because otherwise stuff like this can happen again and again

[Guyver Spawn]

I remember Gargoyles would air on a timeslot that would air after school like 2:00 PM or 3:00 PM. Spider-Man and the other Marvel shows I remember airing early in the mornings on Saturdays.

Where's that Yu-Gi-Oh abridged clip where Melvin goes "Robots! I can do all the violence I want and it'll still be Pg-13!" That's basically what applies here.

Meanwhile I'm still slogging my way through Ultimate (still on season one) and keep thinking "man I wish this was more like the 90s show. It didn't need constant cut away gags and just told a story."
