I bought the 80's Transformers cartoon on DVD for Josiah. He is 3 1/2. He could watch it all day and night if we let him. We don't. However, I know that in that show there is no witchcraft. No language. No blood. No real violence other than between robots. The goodguys always win. I like having something I can let him watch and know it isn't pushing an agenda. (It's agenda in 86 was to get kids to get their parents to buy toys. No social or political agenda)
Too much TV is horrendous for kids. It weakens the imagination and shortens attention spans. It also tends to make them fat since they don't move for hours! I am not anti-TV. I just think we need to be careful not to let it raise our kids.

Of course. But that's completely, not even remotely what I'm talking about.
And witches didn't originate with Disney. Try reading some of the original Grimm's Fairy Tales from way, way back (way before tv). They're horrifically evil and violent.
