==Production==
John Kricfalusi has announced some possibilities of reviving Ren & Stimpy with the reopening of Spümco (now renamed Spümtwo). Reports came in 2016, which said that Kricfalusi is developing a Ren & Stimpy short-format cartoon that would premiere along with the third SpongeBob SquarePants movie. However, Kricfalusi denied this on Twitter. He announced for a reboot of Ren & Stimpy instead.
===Animation===
The series shares the same art and animation style with the 2003 controversial revival. But like the original Spumco and Games Animation episodes, the show is animated at Rough Draft Korea.
==Trivia==
*Some episodes are based on scripts written for the Spümco era of the original series, as well as the ones written for the 2003 revival. Also, a few episodes of the original show's post-Spümco era are redone for the reboot, in which Bob Camp, director of the post-Spümco era was hired as co-director, along with Kricfalusi.
*Ren's personality in the reboot is a mix of his 1991 original and 2003 revival personalities. Also, archival recordings of voice actor Billy West (who voiced Ren (Season 3-5) and Stimpy in the original show) doing Ren's famous evil laugh are used in the reboot, with permission from Nickelodeon.
*Unlike the original show and 2003 revival, it will also include segments starring George Liquor and his nephews Slab, Ernie and Jimmy the Idiot Boy, as well as the Powdered Toast Man segments from the original show.
*In order to simplify this reboot better, reruns of both the original show and the 2003 revival aired on Comedy Central, but with the reboot's opening. However, the 2003 revival episode Stimpy's Pregnant is the only episode not to air on Comedy Central. Kricfalusi announced that the aforementioned episode will be the series finale to the new reboot after at least six seasons.
*Like the 2003 controversial revival, Ren and Stimpy appear to be bi-sexuals.
*The TV version did not have many raunchy gross-out jokes as in the uncensored DVD and Blu-ray releases of the episodes.
