Instead, we got crude sound effects and raunchy jokes about homoeroticism and consumption of human waste. Anyone who grew up with Ren and Stimpy remembers the psychological drama of "Space Madness," the harebrained schemes of "The Boy Who Cried Rat," and the inspired nonsense of "Robin Hoek." None of those classic cartoons' qualities were present last night. "Were" is the operative word in that sentence after I saw the premiere of their new "Adult Party Cartoon" on the National Network (TNN). Ren and Stimpy were two of the most cherished icons from my childhood. 2 stars out of 10 is completely justified. I will not regard the adult party cartoon as Ren and Stimpy. I am really angry they would go and ruin this great series. And this is on the first channel for guys? If this is what the show was supposed to be like the whole time it's a good thing that restrictions were put on it because the show would have bombed and nobody would have any clue who Ren Hoek or Stimpson J Cat were. It's like John K was just trying to tick everyone off or something. That's funny? Anal sex between Ren and Stimpy? I don't see how anyone except immature children would find that funny. I mean all of the "jokes" were not funny. Upon seeing the premier of the new version of the show I was mortified. The sense of humor was delightfully twisted and original. It was my favorite TV show for a very long time. When I heard that Ren and Stimpy was returning, I had to see it, no matter what. It's very rare that I will make a point to watch something on TV. High and Mighty" in the cartoon biz, but this baloney should certainly be enough to deflate his ego. John Krickfalusi should feel very ashamed for making this thankfully-short series. It is just amped-up grotesqueries that do no feel in the least taboo, but rather worn-out and trite. There is no wit or cleverness to be found in the new Ren and Stimpy. There is no good story to compliment the witless extremes that John Kricfalusi felt he needed to bring to this waste of ink and paint. South Park and Family Guy are examples of adult cartoons that include wit and cleverness with any so-called "gross-out" humor. If anything, this cartoon was boring and lacked any good story. "Ren and Stimpy Adult Party Cartoon" is a perfect example of the assumption that gross out humor is enough to make a cartoon funnier for adults! Sick and twisted shock gags do not make a cartoon any funnier. Just because you can make a cartoon without the censors bugging you doesn't mean you should.
