Has Viacom been "Spumcoed" again?

[Mister X]

The shenanigans of late episodes, poor product, outraged fans and
Spumco's delusions of grandeur, not to mention plummeting ratings seems
to have killed Viacom's interest in the "new" Ren & Stimpy Show.

Will Viacom put together a more competent reliable production house to
continue producing episodes out of John K's hands as Nick did by forming
Games productions? Has history repeated itself?

I don't know the inside stuff, but where does Bob Camp stand with all
this. I thought the episodes he directed after the Nick thing were
fine. The product seemed to be delivered realizable too. Is he still
in the circuit?

TV GUIDE just printed their complaint against Spike TV and their stupid
animated bugs that ruin all of the shows. If it is even pissing off the
publishers at TV GUIDE to print that, you can imagine how pissed off EVERYONE
else is.

Yet they can't seem to figure out why their ratings are so poor even after
the THOUSANDS of complaint letters they have been getting about this and then
instead of getting rid of the animated bugs, they actually make them MORE
animated, LARGER and use them now CONSTANTLY during a program.

What assholes.

I am glad they will be gone before the end of the year is up.

Let that be a LESSON to them.

The ratings aren't poor.

Yep, I heard that also. Plus they took the "magic" out of R&S and made
it as generic as a Scooby Doo and Scrappy (eech) cartoon.

hehe

You don't know the inside stuff. The first couple of Games seasons were
twice as late and cost at over double the budget of the Spumco
episodes.

"not to mention plummeting ratings"

Where's your evidence? And please don't cite shenanigans as evidence.
