Ren and Stimpy Memories

I can actually remember watching "The Ren and Stimpy Show" as a kid (I would probably say I had been watching since the new episodes were aired on nickelodeon - 1991), saying this, I can't believe my parents actually allowed me to watch these!...the fact that I don't remember full episodes just little clips of different episodes, isn't the point, watching these animated series, now, seem a little too much for kids, I would say!...

...as a young one I was always puzzled about what Ren and Stimpy were as animals, and just thought they were made up creatures (although my mind was saying that Stimpy was a cat, but with out whiskers an a tail this was hard to believe), the fact is Ren is a Chihuahua and Stimpy is indeed a manx cat (well I was half right then, and that explains the non-existent tail!). A lot people didn't find those two amusing (mainly because of the cartoons imagery and cartoon violence), but I did. I found the animation more interesting then anything, the detail they went into when something gross would appear on screen was fascinating, because no other cartoon I watched did that.

so about a year back now, I decided to re-watch some of the episodes, to refresh my mind on some of the storytelling (although as a kid I don't think I paid much attention to the storyline anyway!)...and one that I found really really amusing is called "Sven Hoek" its about a relative of Ren's coming to visit!...this is part2 of the episode!..the funniest part is near the ending when Ren goes off into his psychotic moment (I especially enjoy the demonstration he gives, of what he is going to do to their arm, the expressions here are interesting!)...pls watch it, its hilarious!
