Haha okay sure, but once again you're focusing on some of the cartoons aimed at a younger age group. Yes, a lot of older people watch Spongebob. It's got some gems but in general it is very childish. But um, it's FOR children. Have you never seen Adult Swim? Yeah, those are cartoons. So is South Park. So is hentai. The point is that just because it is animated, it doesn't necessarily make it any more childish than live television, ESPECIALLY when comparing it to a show that is basically a group of grown ups doing really childish things. No, kids aren't going around making heavy machinery and blowing **** up, but they want to, and they'd enjoy the show as much as, or more than the average adult.
Okay, I originally thought you were saying that Mythbusters was more childish than Spongebob or Dora, but if you mean animated things like South Park or Family Guy, I see what you mean.

I personally would vastly prefer watching cartoons over any sitcom (With the exception of Happy Days, which is the best sitcom in the history of mankind) or reality show, which are really the most popular types of shows these days, all of which are live action. But that doesn't make them any better or any more adult than some of the best cartoons around.
I don't really like cartoons much, I don't know why. I don't like more adult-themed ones either such as South Park.

Quit knockin' cartoons man. Anyway, as I've heard it said so elegantly, "Those who try their hardest to act like adults are missing the point of life." Enjoy your inner child, dude.
That's all they're tryin' to do!
