Introduction

This encyclopedia doesn't take the place of the Ren And Stimpy guide and FAQ; on the contrary, it should work with these documents. This encyclopedia puts all the shows in perspective with bumpers and cartoons. A bumper is a short commercial spoof or a short piece. All times are Eastern U.S.A. times unless specified.

This document is a depository for miscellaneous facts about Ren And Stimpy and its showings. Anything not covered by the FAQ or Not-So-Official-Guide is covered here--if not, E-mail and request it from me.

Posting Information: This will be posted along with the other Ren And Stimpy documents (the FAQ and guide) every four weeks. Look for it around Sunday night in the middle of every month.

FTP Information: This guide has been uploaded to aug3.augsburg.edu and is updated fairly often. If you want more on Ren And Stimpy, please consult the R&S FAQ and/or Episode Guide, both posted on alt.tv.ren-n-stimpy. It was kept by Nick Sayer at mrapple@quack.sac.ca.us, but I have taken over for him. E-mail me at ngsippel@miavx2.ham.muohio.edu with your comments, suggestions, compliments, gripes, and/or additions. E-mail ren-n-stimpy@aug3.augsburg.edu for the guides; if you want more information about the listserver, consult the FAQ.
