10 out of 10 might be a tad extreme but for what it was it deserves that score. I'm not sure any show in this genre had more creativity and interesting plots lol. Ren said it perfectly in season one while going Mad In Space.. "We aren't hitchhiking anymore..... We are riding!!!"

Nickeolodeon really did it with themselves in the 1990s when a "naughty" little show called Ren and Stimpy premiered as that would change the face of TV.John K really outdid himself. As the show changed the way that we look at cartoons. And how we got shows like South Park and Family Guy. These are not cartoons for little kids as one of the reviewers mentioned.Naught but funny, gross and abrasive, but clever. Ren the little nasty tempered chihulua and Stimpy the fat happy go lucky cat. Go beyond the thing called toilet humor.With help from a cast of other cartoon supporting players. And how the show nearly got kicked off of Nickeolodeon due to being nasty and gross. But it has since become a cult favorite for all generations that grew up with it and will begin to like it.Gross and nasty but funny and a riot at it's best.

Ren and Stimpy is one of those cult shows that became really popular because it was original. The animation is very well done, the soundtrack is good, but the humor? Not exactly.Ren and Stimpy is a very bizarre show that tries to be funny by being insane. And when I say insane, I mean INSANE! The show has disturbing plots such as Stimpy smashing his teeth and then plucking out the nerves in his mouth very slowly so that he can wish for his teeth back. Another plot is Ren farted and believes he had a kid when he farted so he searches for several years to find his kid, and it turns out his fart was a kid! They eventually meet up, though the kid is in a gas form, and then the kid marries a dead fish and lives in Stimpy's nose. Yeah...The most disturbing episode is an episode where Stimpy tries to murder Ren in his sleep because he is jealous of Ren's popularity. It is about a 3-5 minutes scene of Stimpy talking to himself about how and why he should kill Ren. It is very disturbing.I give the show credit for being creative, having some genuinely funny moments, and having interesting characters but the show is just so disturbing and disgusting that I don't find it really amusing. The show can give me a headache at times.

A misunderstood classic is what I would call 'The Ren & Stimpy Show'. It was obviously a mature-themed TV show but shown on a kids television channel. It's dark humour, violence, off-colour humour and sexual innuendo caused the show to be redone and "lighter". John K was fired and some of the other guys stayed and tried to emulate John K's style but also make it more accessible and "kid friendly".So season one and two are just classic after classic. Ren is probably one of the darkest comedy characters I've ever came across. Unpredictable, violent and utterly insane whereas Stimpy is a lovable but dim witted cat. And that comes across as great chemistry between the two characters.Wildly entertaining, off the wall and way ahead of it's time, Ren & Stimpy show is a misunderstood classic full of morbid humour and fine animation. But it's not for kids, honestly it's been marketed totally wrong. The humour is too adult and varied for kids.
