The Ren and Stimpy show

The Ren and Stimpy show is one of the most interesting TV shows ever invented. The company that produced it was Spumco, a company that used to design kid's cartoons. John Kricfalusi was the inventor of this slapstick humor cartoon. It was designed slightly like Tom and Jerry. This cartoon was originally created in 1991. But ended in 1996, but in 1997 the show only aired re-runs. The show had became very popular, and had gained a large audience. However, when Spumco published their script, the material then went to nickelodeon, but almost every episode had to be re-created, since lots of Spumco's material wasn't exactly correct, since some storyboards weren't exactly " kid-friendly" . The duo involves Ren, (who is probably the most angriest chihuahua ever), and Stimpy(the most simple minded cat in the world).In the first episode, Big House Blues, Ren and Stimpy were street cats and dogs, until a girl comes and adopts them from the animal shelter. But this is only the scenairo in the first episode. In various episodes other characters are also included and take Ren and Stimpy into their lives. This type of scenario was used in episodes specifically like in the episode "Fire Dogs". Which is where Ren and Stimpy try to become fire dogs so they can get food. But then Ren and Stimpy realize that it's tough to be fire dogs, like in one fire this lady was dropping down her pets and her baby, having Ren and Stimpy catching them, sounds easy right? NO. The baby was HUGE, and the pets involve an ELEPHANT, a horse (whose name to be exact is Mr. Horse) and a few others. But in the end Stimpy dumps Cat Litter on the top of the building, and the fire went out. Ren and Stimpy also have some various sayings, for example, when Stimpy screws up Ren ends up getting violent on Stimpy and says "YOU IDIOT!!"in a high and angry tone. Mr. Horse usually answers yes or no questions by most of the time saying " No sir, I didn't like it". To top it off Ren and Stimpy is a cartoon that works with everyone, and if you haven't ever seen/heard of Ren and Stimpy before... then maybe you should watch this video! Picture taken from crazy about TV .com and this concludes the genius behind the Ren and Stimpy show!
