New Ren & Stimpy Cartoon

Anyone seen the previews for the new Ren & Stimpy series on TNN? Well, I did, and I just watched it. Lemme tell ya, I was a big fan of Ren & Stimpy as a kid, (as most were when it came out) but omg--this new series is just wrong. I realize that Ren & Stimpy was supposed to be gross, and I realize they could only get away with so much on Nickleodeon, (in fact, I'm surprised that they got away with as much as they did) but this new one just takes things too far. I'm sorry, but some of the stuff they had was just awful. I'm sure the original intention of Ren & Stimpy was what is now being shown, (TV-MA, btw) and if that's true, then I'm sorry I was ever a fan. This has basically ruined R&S forever for me. I had high hopes--I knew it was going to be more adult-oriented, (it has the word "adult" in the subtitle of the show, even) and I was prepared for swearing and a little bit more grossness--but it was nonstop grossness and there was some pretty obscene stuff thrown in too. One thing was so bad, that it makes me sick to think about. If you thought the show used to be gross--you haven't seen anything. The new Gary the Rat show or whatever it is looks uninteresting, and Stripperella looks just plain stupid, so I didn't bother watching those, but man am I disillusioned tonight. I went to lengths to watch this new R&S cartoon too--my normal TV didn't have TNN programmed, because I never watched it, and it could only be reprogrammed with a remote I never used normally, and the batteries in it were dead, and so were any other batteries of that type I had, so I had to dig in my rubble-packed closet to find my old semi-broken TV with auto-programming, and just got it going in time. Sigh.
