Double-coding is the practice of creating a work of art that speaks to two different audiences in different ways. It’s most often used to describe Children’s shows that also entertain adults. For example, Animaniacs and the classic Bugs Bunny cartoons are double-coded well – they have many references that a child won’t get but will amuse an adult. ‘Blues Clues’ is not double-coded – and as such, an adult watching it will be put to sleep.

Of course, this is all an excuse to show you all this very double-coded, hilarious clip from a 70’s children’s show. Warning: requres flash, sound, and playing at work will elicit some very odd looks from co-workers and possibly a talk with your HR department.
