Ren and Stimpy: "Adult Party Cartoon" is Fundamentally Broken (Re-Dub)

Re-posted again due to KZbin copyright claiming a segment with royalty-free music. Yeah. You read that right. Silly, greedy KZbin. Anyways, let's look beyond the bandwagon, and ignore the hyperbolic rage, and take a look at what specifically makes Ren and Stimpy: "Adult Party Cartoon" fail...again...

I thought he made the Adult Party Cartoons out of spite from getting fired from the first seasons. If someone had the freedom to do whatever they wants with their own works without studio's interventions and be able to raise the age of an originally kid show, they would be thrilled. He ruined it.

[@computerblue84]

This is one of my fave shows e er. Def one of the ones j i have on in the background when im relaxing or working. However a certain … “seen” was def part of my hearly 20s lezb0 awakenings. Not sorry. 🎉 Stil think the film isn’t too bad! It’s still Drawn Together so it’s still good for me no matter how dumb it is

[@kiartoons2010]

I feel like the main reason the original Ren and Stimpy worked so well was because there was always someone there, telling John that what he should and shouldn’t do. Like “No John, you can’t make an episode that just gross-out jokes” or “You can’t make an episode about Stimpy getting pregnant.” Without that other force, you basically allowing an animator with no self-control to do whatever they want, leading to a big mess of unfunny gags and sex appeal.

[@zombies4evadude24]

Tbf there was already an episode called “Son of Stimpy” about Stimpy giving birth to a fart and that one was sorta funny, so an episode directly about Stimpy getting pregnant (or protecting an egg or something) could have worked. Instead the intense grossout, painful to watch Stimpy abuse, lackluster pacing and homophobic implications ruined it. Definitely my least favorite episode in the adult show. I’d rather watch Onward and Upward (barely) compared to whatever the hell that was.

I said it once and will say it again: the most disgusting thing that John K. made for this show was a script implying that the abusive parts of Ren should represent the worst parts of him AND the victim he molested...

[@leroypreston2973]

Indeed, that he treated her leaving as though she's the villain and that she ought to be content with her abuse is that too. I think Stimpy in the script is John wanting robin to be content with his abuse towards her and likeoy bribed her with stuff. While ren is John K as his angriest and most abusive I now wonder if Stimpy in the script could also represent John K as a sad, powerless man who cries about things not going his way. That he is a control freak, perfectionist pedo who cries when things don't go the way he wants.

I’d be curious about a take on ’Evil Ren’, probably one of the oppressive cartoons ever made. It’s not funny, has no real plot other than Ren being straight up sadistic to Stimpy, and seems to be the animated equivalent to a snuff film.

[@leroypreston2973]

I said it once and will again. I think for Naked Beach Frenzy, John K likely wanted the women to be 14-15 years old, but the cast and crew wanted them to be 20 somethings. I think that the flaws of adult animation remind me of underground comics. The creators work in restrictive mediums and when given freedom decide to put in as much gross out and sex stuff as possible to push boundaries. Perhaps Baked Beach Frenzy being porn is how this put stuff that is vulgar mindset eventually does. That they feel that they should make porn. After all isn't porn boundary pushing and taboo? And from this the male writers have excuses to project their sex fantasies and use women as sex props for their fantasies.

[@Gamesta100]

When John K was on The Howard Stern show he actually "joked" that those 2 characters were underage" so you're 100% correct

[@truthhopelove]

And R & S in an attempt to appear classy, reluctantly consume said bodily fluids. You can even have the sales guy scam artist (who is the manager of the restaurant) drop this line to explain things: "Here at "La Grosse" we take an innovative approach to saving money! While poor people are spending their not-so-well-earned money on "actual food", La Grosse saves it BIG by using the amazing wonders of the human body to satiate it's customers!" As for "Naked Beach Frenzy", cut back the sexual aspect by 50-70%. And have the women want to fuck Stimpy while they ignore Ren. With Stimpy innocently assuming that they are just interested in him non-sexually. A jealous Ren tries to get their attention and shenanigans ensue.

Then, when he finds out where the smell came from, he snaps and shouts "That's it! I draw the line at this!", before being interrupted by a loud burp and turning to see that Stimpy had already finished his meal, to which he replies with "Uhh, what line, Ren?".

Here's a fun fact: Early 2000s. Nick cartoons were often purchased and broadcast on local TV in our region (it introduced me to a lot of great shows that ended up being some of my favorites), and "Adult Party Cartoon" was shown on the same schedule with more innocuous shows such as «SpongeBob» or «Rugrats», INCLUDING the lost episodes (still remember the "Naked Beach Frenzy" one, lol). In general, this isn't surprising; animation products were simply purchased without any special checks (don't know how this could happen otherwise). Looks like there was only one opinion: “All cartoons are for children.” After elementary school, you could also watch some ecchi anime with explicit scenes, nudity, or /censored/ (pew-pew scenes). It was on the local broadcast of MTV at noon. Not gonna lie, it was kind of cool, but thinking about it now is just hilarious.

29:18 This bit feels like it only could've only worked if it was a punchline to two idiot characters doing idiot-things. The sheer shock and absurdity would have been great, if it started with like a different character going, "Okay, maybe spending the day with them won't be so bad-" and then it cuts to that scene, then panning back to the other character being aggravated on what they have to put up with.

[@ThaDocta0623]

That whole "you're the pitcher, I'm the catcher" bit in the first episode was hilarious! Although now that I think about it, I suppose it was the climax of the whole episode...

[@andrewbatts7678]

Dont forget those instant milkshake type mixer machines at some gas stations that had a giant lcd screen with John K. Animation on it.

[@sonicmario64]

I thought that the original cartoon that was to be paired up with "Man's Best Friend" was actually "In The Army", since that was the cartoon that was paired up with the pilot cartoon "Big House Blues" when it originally aired on Nickelodeon, and the cartoon that "Ren's Toothache" was paired up with actually ended up being "Rubber Nipple Salesmen".

[@JessePorkman]

That's how the DVD pairs the episodes. In the Army aired with Powdered Toast Man and Rubber Nipple Salesmen was paired with Out West.

[@sonicmario64]

@@JessePorkman I remember being able to watch reruns of the show on TV before they were released on DVD, and the orders of the episodes were actually the same as how they were shown for the latter.

"The Drawn Together gang fill in every blank with "penis" and laugh because it makes no sense-" I get it. "Then Captain Hero remembers that his sidekick is dead and starts crying." ...I don't get it. What's the connective tissue between the two, exactly? How does filling out an adlib with "penis" connect to "my sidekick is dead"? Am I missing something with that Drawn Together example?

[@scrubbadubbins4895]

25:25 in the other countries that aired the second half of the series Naked Beach Frenzy had no problem with length since it was 22 minutes, Altruists was spit into two 22 minutes episodes, and Stimpy's Pregnant was split into two episodes. Part 1 was 22 minutes while part 2, which had the unique episode title of "The Blessed Event" was paired with Big House Blues uncut and Man's Best Friend

This Fundamentally Broken video is the gift that keeps on giving, ain't it? You said the same thing for Adult Party Cartoon in your 30,000 subscriber special about everything we need to know about it, but this video in particular, which may also be fundamentally broken itself, ironically enough, is something you had to edit and re-upload 3 times in one week, so thank you for continuing to give us new versions of the same 2-year old video while you are busy working on your next new video.

You know the Star Wars Prequels are looked upon far more favorably when compared to the Disney Star Wars. So, relatively speaking the Prequel Trilogy is no longer the joke, Disney Wars is.

Ngl, the oar scene in Man's Best Friend could probably act as a visual for what some people would like to do to John K after hearing about what he's done...Then again I might just be as unhinged.

[@garali1973]

If I would recommend me one episode you should watch from the show, I would say, fire dogs 2. in my opinion, it’s the least terrible. it still has most of the issues I have with the series. But in my opinion, the jokes are a bit more funnier and Ralph Bakshi does a great performance. (Plus I’m not that big of a fan of Ren seeks help. Not because of the bandwagon because it’s just a bit too disturbing to watch. But I do have to agree it’s better than some of the others. It’s especially better than Stimpy’s pregnant)

aight, I'm curious about naked beach party now since... it just got completely skipped here. but, eh... I don't actually wanna watch it lol. I'm sure it's as bad as the rest, but I'm wondering what or if there's anything in particular that's ass about it

[@Derpferdler]

It’s basically just cartoon porn. The plot is literally just Ren and Stimpy are at the beach with naked women, and end up showering them for some reason

[@zerobeatw2059]

lol that sounds so devoid of anything in general really. sounds about right from the few clips I've seen tho.

37:10 That was very much the narrative a decade ago before all the allegations came out and before Cans Without Labels. Backed up by the fact that, A.
