* It's no worse that a parent could mistake ''WesternAnimation/SmilingFriends'' as kid-friendly because of the title and its happy-go-lucky pink main character, and his inoffensive-looking friend sharing the spotlight. But that show is clearly NOT for children; it has a crude art-style and is full of violence and [[BlackComedy dark humor]] to the point someone dies graphically (and either nonchalantly or hilariously) in every last episode of Season 1.

Actually, WB Multiversus does feature characters from Adventure Time and Steven Universe.


** Not helping matters is that the title characters [[spoiler: made a cameo in ''Film/SpaceJamANewLegacy'']], which is intended as a family-friendly work. Not only that, but they are the sole representatives of not just Adult Swim, but Cartoon Network as a whole in a MassiveMultiplayerCrossover of Warner Bros. properties, yet characters from other family friendly cartoons such as ''WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls'' and ''WesternAnimation/AdventureTime'' do not show up at all.

Despite the fact that Creator/CartoonNetwork's nocturnal block is called '''Creator/{{Adult|Swim}}''' [[Creator/AdultSwim Swim]] for a reason, kids are still prone to tune in to the programs shown. A lot of them tend to be fans of ''WesternAnimation/AquaTeenHungerForce'', ''WesternAnimation/RobotChicken'', and ''WesternAnimation/RickAndMorty''. It helps that the network itself is kid-friendly [[{{Demographically Inappropriate Humour}} (more or less)]] during the day.
