IMO the show had gone downhill when they lost John Kricfalusi. Glad to see he is back at the helm :)

John K. himself did the voices for Ren. Billy West did the voice for stimpy. when John was fired Billy ended up with the voice of Ren. Nobody does Ren better than John, he IS Ren :Þ

i think they will work together again. why wouldn't they? I'm sure Billy West would be thrilled to do it. I couldn't imagine anyone else doing the voice for Stimpy.

becuase of this topic last night i had this dream: ren and stimpy won a brit award (UK version of grammy for the unfamiliar) but not for a song they sung, but for producing a Strokes song. only, the song is hidden on their album and no one in the UK has been able to find the hidden track ren & stimpy produced. it's supposed to be some ridiculous cover tune. anyway, it was just weird. a week ago i had a dream where xltronic came to life in form of dracula's castle and phobiazero was a real life count dracula, and he invited me there to terrible things to me. i kid you not.

rocko is played on the alternate nick channels if you have satellite. i don't, but my cousins do. they also have pete & pete on there! i wish i had satellite.
last summer, vh1 played r & s episodes from 12 to 1 am, hosted by none other than billy west himself! it was way sweet, unfortunate i didn't tape them.

yeah i see rocko on every once and while. pete and pete is great, but it's on a different channel.
ever notice how they allways take all the best shows, that are just reaching their prime, off the air for several years, then rerun them years later on some crappy channel at some random time?

yep, always seems that way... notice the original back to the future cartoon is on the fox box now?
either that or they re-do the show entirely! ie: ninja turtles, transformers... im waiting for them to fuck up thundercats, hopefully the day will never come.

pic from the new episodes!:
damn i have to donate 10$ to xltronic somtime soon...
yay!
John: "TNN called me up and said, How'd ya like to do new episodes of Ren & Stimpy? It's my favorite characters, so of course I wanna do it. It's been about ten years since we made the last Ren & Stimpy, so we dug up some of the old stories that never did get produced; some of the ones that were maybe a little too edgey for a kid's program, we said, well this would be a good way to break into it this season, and started thinking up new ideas. And then, within a week-and-a-half we realized new ideas were a lot funnier than the old ones. We're in primetime now, so a lot of the censorship issues that we had to worry about when we were doing kid's programming...are pretty much gone. The personalities are the same personalities; Ren is still an a$$hole, and Stimpy's still retarded. Not only will the content be a little bit edgier
