Start checking those used record bins and shady music store/head shops.
There's a used bookstore here in Duluth that has TONS of promos for sale, all
stamped 'not for sale' etc.

And at the local head shop, I bought an album once which turned out to be a
few songs interspersed with 1-5 min. messages from the band. (Wild Swans).
This also was stamped 'promo only', or something like that.

So keep your eyes open! (That's how I happened to come across my RnS #1 just
this week!!)

Hello Kids,


     On a recent MTV-News piece, they mentioned something about the release of
a Cd of music used on the R&S show by some obscure 40's or 50's artiste.

     Does anybody know this artiste's name or the title of the Cd?


Any help wil be much appreciated.

He said it in more than these two episodes. I think you mean "Happy Happy  
Happy...Joy Joy Joy" (like in the sound from sonata.cc.purdue.edu) (if  
this is the one, then there's a gif of it at wuarchive called cmdhoek).

I think you meant "The tranquilizer, man... use the tranquilizer!", but

Should be "Silly me...I had a whole pocketful of change all along. Kinda  
ironic, huh Ren?". This is the one I'm really not sure about, but that's  
the way I remember it.

Everyone,
								is there such a thing as a R&S Cd of music/sounds from the show?
(What I'm looking for would be like the Bugs Bunny on Broadway CD) If so,
what is the title, and by whom is it published? Looking forward to your
responses!

Strange, I was just watching "Haredevil Hair" (on a commercial tape called 
"Bugs Bunny Classics" or something) this weekend and found myself thinking
exactly the same thing about "Marooned".

However, I don't think that it is possible to sum up Ren-n-Stimpy by just 
calling it a homage to Warner Brothers.  They (WB) did put out the most 
original mass-audience animation I've seen so far, but they never did
anything like throw in a bus-full of mindlessly content and Happy(!) employees
chanting their Joy(!) out the windows.  They also never used with themes
like the American obsession with consumption ("Rubber Nipple Salemen")
ludicrous religious rituals (yak-shaving day), etc. etc. etc.

This is why I feel it is necessary to scrutinize every single frame and word
of dialogue until I can no longer speak publicly without interrupting someone
with "WHOA! Hmmm...., Ahh!"

Some criticisms answered:
   1. The term "anti-cartoon" I made up. It's an analogy to "anti-play",
the term Ionesco applied to his first play, _The Bald Soprano_, which
made fun of other plays and of the banality of middle-class existence.
(If you haven't read it, do so. It's a scream.) The middle-class couples
in the play talk in cliches, saying nothing that means much or even
makes sense (much like the married couple in "Rubber Nipples"--_that's_
what I meant by automatons; they simply repeat a few cliches, giving
no indication of intelligence). R+S does the same; the cartoon makes
fun of other cartoons, and of modern existence.
   2. Stimpy, true, isn't irredeemably stupid, and is, by most standards,
more moral than Ren, or even many people I could name. What matters,
though, is what Ren (and John K.) think of him. He's _too_ nice,
totally unsuited to life in a meaningless universe where it doesn't pay
to be moral. Stimpy is portrayed as a fool, much like Berenger is
portrayed as a fool in _Rhinoceros_ (another Ionesco play). Berenger
is the last human to retyain his identity in a world where everyone
has turned into rhinoceroses. To us, he is a hero for staying human.
To Ionesco, he is an eeediot. "Who's he trying to kid? Nobody cares!"
says Ionesco.

I noticed that too.  Just what makes nose goblins better than farts anyway?
It's discrimination!!!  :-)

Since Stinky, who came out of Stimpy's butt, referred to Stimpy as 'Dad',
then wouldn't that make the nose goblins Stimpy's kids as well????

Well, hello

Much Music just showed "Powdered Toast Man" here in Canada. I didn't notice
anything cut from the episode at all.  Powdered Toast man shot down a plane
with his raisan pellets, killed a cat. blew up muddy mudskipper, left the
Pope on a mountain peak, farted on R&S's powdered toast, helped the
President get his pecker unstuck from his zipper, became the president of
the US, and burned the Bill of Rights and the Constitution.                 
           

Was anything cut or did I see the works?

If I saw the uncut version, "Happy, happy, happy...joy, joy, joy..."
Otherwise, "Stimpy, I've never been this angry in my entire life!!!"

P.S. Anyone notice who the voice of the Pope was?

My personal opinion about this matter is that we may never see another "new"
Ren&Stimpy cartoon again.  Think about it.  Nick has been showing reruns
for several weeks now on SNICK.  The Son-of-Stimpy cartoon was never shown
on SNICK, even though one poster to this newsgroup said that John K. thought
that the NICK executives didn't mind it.  There have been rumors that NICK
is going to replace Ren&Stimpy (on SNICK, anyway) with a new show this spring.

I believe that the Ren&Stimpy Marathon on MTV was sort of a "last blast" by
NICK and MTV executives before slowly fading the show from their main
line-ups.  I also believe that it was shown on MTV instead of NICK in an
attempt to appease angered fans by giving them a last-chance glimpse of the
"forbidden/banned" episodes.

Why would NICK get rid of such an obviously popular cartoon?  My personal
opinion (again) is that they just can't quite figure out what they want to
do with the show, and are hoping that they can get it to fade from popularity
slowly, without enraging fans unduly.

I am quite willing to be wrong about my opinions.  In fact, I hope I get egg on
my face this very Saturday night.  I just won't be surprised if I don't.

Oh, get a life.  Did you think for a second to /praise/ Nickelodean for even
allowing R&S to exist?  THEY commissioned/funded the show, they can do
whatever they want with it.  Nick thought they were getting a show for kids --
Nick's main audience is children -- and now Nick is coping with the somewhat
strong nature of the show.  And, for your info, Nick is planning to release
them on videotape, and there is a very good chance that the entire episodes
will be played without editting.

Quitcherbitchen and relax.

They did the same thing the first time the showed R & S episodes.  I'm
pretty sure they did it that way (without a break between shows) so viewers
would stay on when they saw another episode was starting.  Oh well, at
least they didn't superimpose the MTV logo like they did the first time.

It's too bad VCRs don't have circuitry to detect these and automatically
pause if in record an appropriate mode is set.

Speaking of video-tech stuff, did anyone notice the weird video artifact
some parts of some of the MTV Ren at Ten episodes had??  It was like each
scan line was blurred into two scan lines, then returned to normal, then
weird again, then normal again, etc, with a period of about 2 seconds.
Anyone have any idea what this was and why it was??  (To get a good look,
it's very apparent in the Stimpy's Invention/Space Madness episode, if you
taped it.)

Subject: In-Jokes in ST:DS9 "Babel" episode (tiny Spoiler)

About 2/3 of the way through the new Star Trek: Deep Space Nine episode
"Babel", take a close look at the text in the Graphics screen displaying
boigraphical information on a character named Surmak Ren, especially the
information on his parents.  There's some additional other in-jokes contained
in the text, but I need to get a SVHS freeze frame on it.
