>>100523424I do pretty much still think this; that Ren and Stimpy's main thing is hitting a specific zeitgeist and being first out the pipe really. I will give credit in that it does have influence though given some reflection. Namely in the sense that a lot of alumni from either Spumco, Camp's group, and Nick's staff went on to do other things of their own. Note that I'm referring to people though, not quite the show itself.
Like I said, a lot of things happened in the 80s to make the animation renaissance happen including the rise of cable TV, new networks needing programming, and the fact that the boomers were now firmly in charge of the TV networks and wanted to do things their way as opposed to their parents' way.
No, this is the thread where we ridicule an arrogant, cruel, and perverted Bob Clampett dickrider who only likes old Looney Toons and H-B cartoons that he desperately imitates from the title cards to the music and style. All of this as he vents his over-exaggerated daddy issues and giggles as he feeds his compulsion to have weird disgusting shit appear on screen. With the proviso that he jacks it to teenage girls in his art, workplace, and photos.
