I feel that a lot of this just comes down to the mind set of the directors, writers and producers. It wasn't that long ago that the standard belief was that all kids have short attention spans and thus, not care about things like continuity, romance, plot holes ect.
But now many of those kids are grown up and making their own cartoons. We're experiencing an animation renaissance where writers want to make cartoons that, not only kids, but their parents will enjoy to. Cartoons are hip and cool now to. And while it may seem like the censors are in control, we see many cartoons push the envelope. That's my observation anyway.
