Thinking about that video's concept, I find that I more easily recall the, "serials." Outside of the short slapstick format, the only two, "episodics," I recall much of are Pinky and the Brain, and Courage, both of which were rather self-aware about their, "episodic," nature, and had thin 4th walls. Most of the rest I can recall having watched, but don't have much depth to said memories.
I had previously only really thought about it in terms of ease of handling reruns, and oftentimes lazy writing (a lot of entertainment, but especially kids shows, are shoveled out as fast as possible), though. Definitely food for thought.
