I absolutely HATE this show. I hate how they portrayed the "characters"-if you want to call them that- and I hate how you can still buy this almost everywhere!! But enough of my panicked hysteria, here is why I hate this retching excuse of a cartoon: "Ren" & "Stimpy": As I stated in my summary, this is NOT the Ren & Stimpy I knew, and I'm right. In APC, Retch & Stumpy are portrayed as a weird gay-bisexual couple thing, something that shocked me the most. And I have nothing against the LGBT community, it's just disturbing(ahem, the dreaded saw scene) I mean, I never saw the original Ren & Stimpy to be gay so.... Also, Ren is an evil, animal abusing maniac and Stimpy is now the clingy,obsessed girlfriend. Ooh, and John K voices Ren again and to replace Billy West, Eric Bauza/Buaza is Stimpy!
The Episodes: Are bad....well except "Ren Seeks Help". I think that's the only episode I'll consider watching more than once.I'll give a brief rundown of each episode:
Onward & Upward: The first APC episode I ever saw. And threw up because of it. Remember all the gross moments in the original? Amp those up times a million and you'll get all those scenes from this episode.
Ren Seeks Help: I will admit: this is actually a beautiful story; It's just not constructed the right way: Too many awkward walking scenes, Stimpy's new annoying cries, and animal abuse.
Fire Dogs 2: What was the purpose of this? To show what the fire chief was really like? But...we already know what he's like: he hates circus midgets and he's a fire chief. It may not be many characteristics but that's better than having him become Ralph Bashki and watching him on the toilet for five minutes.
Naked Beach Frenzy: Need I say more? This episode is just filled with naked girls with chest tumors. I don't even know what the story was.
Altruists:(or something) This actually had a really nice story that would have been perfect for the original show: Ren & Stimpy want to help a poor homeless women and her headless son. But because it's the "new and improved" version, this episode is garbage just like the others. Oh and for all you kinky lovers, you can watch Ren saw a log off a Stimpy's butt!
Stimpy's Pregnant: WTF?
However, there are very few nice things in the rip-off that make me hate it less.
1. Eric Buaza/Bauza did do an okay job on voicing Stimpy. He's no Billy West but he comes close.
2. The animation. My God it's beautiful. This truly brings out the original Ren and Stimpy style of this...sort of.
In conclusion, this is probably one of the worst spin-offs I've ever seen. It's definitely not the original. I recommend this to...well, if you like really gross crap. As for anyone else who's also a die hard Ren & Stimpy fan, heed my warning and stay away from this.It's not the same as the original.
