20 Very Adult Jokes We Missed in Kids Media

Parents need something they can take the kids to see before they lose their ever-lovin’ minds, but what’s on the screen should ideally not accomplish the same thing as staying home. It’s also usually adults behind the scenes, and they, too, would die of boredom if they didn’t spice things up once in a while.
