Felix Saenz In light of the John K situation, I won't judge the show based on him or his incidents. Anyway, what can I say? Ren and Stimpy is a fun and creepy cartoon to watch. While it may not be for everyone, the whole show seem to follow the path that some future cartoons had done - grossout genre, and now there's a dozen storyboard driven cartoons as well. On its merit, the show's animation is one of the best aspects. It's so smooth that it managed to stay fluid throughout most of it run. Props mainly go to Carbunkle Cartoons and Rough Draft Studios for their work. Writing wise, during the first 3 seasons, it's nearly hit. Not too many lame moments and there's only a few misses. Afterwards, it still hits but there's moments that made you shake your head. As for characters, Ren is definitely my favorite character and I can relate to him at times. He's just constantly funny with his outbursts and stuff. Stimpy is a fun character as well and still had his moments, but he doesn't beat Ren. There's other good background characters but we don't see them that much. I like that the BGM basically uses Associated Production Music which is also best known for being used in SpongeBob. I loved both opening and ending themes as well. Voice acting is full of energy. I enjoyed both voices for Ren. Billy West does a fine job as Stimpy. So does the guest stars/recurring cast. Aside from the occasional duds, it's still an enjoyable show. If you don't easily get grossed out like I do, this show is for you. And yes, I still recommend the Games Animation era. Definitely one of the most influenced cartoons ever. Unfortunately, those inspired cartoons doesn't hold a candle to this as they're more gross. This is gross out humor done right.

mwcrunner This show I sort of liked as a kid cause it had humor in it. Looking at it as an adult, its gross and revolting. I mean I know Billy West voices Stimpy in this, but the animation in this show creeps me out. This one episode where Ren and Stimpy are mounties in Canada really creeps me out cause of Ren swallowing bees and I'm afraid of bees and this horse going completely and utterly insane when they're out in a desert which is unlikely for Canada. They also have dirt for dinner. There's also another episode where Ren goes insane and that is really creepy. When I'm married and adopt kids in the future I will not have them watch this cause of it's vileness and grotesque animation. No longer a show that's recommended for anyone today.

frannyw1807 The Ren & Stimpy Show, for me, is a very entertaining show. The animation is very amusing to watch! The reason I put 9 stars is because Seasons 3-5, when the creator John K., was fired, aren't as high quality as the original Spumco cartoons. Season 1- When the show was at its "cuter, more friendlier" time. Season 2- Extremely amusing! (the Carbunkle cartoons are the best) Season 3-5- Meh. Overall, Ren & Stimpy left a big mark on future cartoons. Although, Nickelodeon's cartoons today aren't especially up to scratch, especially Spongebob after the creator also left, and the Fairly Odd Parents since Poof and Sparky got introduced.

sarahkellysens OK so i am so proud to say its been 20 years since Nickelodeon created its first 3 classic Nicktoon's which is "Doug", "Rugrats" & "Ren & Stimpy". Yes! people don't think its believable that Ren & Stimpy is one of the first Nickelodeon classic's but its true it is. I am 16 now almost 17 and i do watch Ren & Stimpy. I first saw Ren & Stimpy when i was 4 so in 1998 my parents told me they use to watch it but i don't remember much until 2004 when i was like 9 or 10 it was on i remember watching it night and i thought it was extremely weird. but now when i watched when it came on in canada at 10pm and i found it very entertaining. It is a great show for kids and a classic comedy cartoon and i see why its that. Please check it out i suggest to anyone though from the ages of 13 and up :) its definitely not meant for kids you don't understand it until your older ;)
