Did Cartoon network just decide to use copyrighted material from the internet.

Technically, aren't the creepers from minecraft and the ponies from mlp copyrighted?

Well theydon't look exactly the same as they do in Minecraft/MLP, so they count as a different thing.

I think there was one occasion where the Simspons had Mario make an appearance, complete with Hmoer throwing barrels at him. They didn't get in any trouble for that.

They got permission, I think.

It is still blatantly obvious they are using likenesses. We aren't talking about copyrighted memes we're talking about the content within those which have copyrights and such. A creeper is very unique, and it's obvious they were using that. But I don't care enough to dispute fully. Whatever.

And I bet that MAD did too. What's the problem here?

So? They aren't going to get taken to court over something like that, especially if it's just a one-scene wonder.

You forget the entire sketch they did on Minecraft.

[Bisjac]

so? its not illegal to you know.
copyrights are about making money. they werent earning on them likenesses so it didnt matter.
if anything they promote it.

are you all new to the world or something?

[MegaScientifical]

Well, although no one could conceive how a show like MAD could make money, the fact it's still on the air must mean money is coming from somewhere. So they are profiting off it in a way.

[Littledude]

so family guy, south park, the simpson, etc. all are breaking the law?
no.
