List of The Ren & Stimpy Show episodes

The Ren & Stimpy Show is an animated series that premiered on Nickelodeon on August 11, 1991, directly following the premieres of Doug and Rugrats, and it ran for five seasons until December 16, 1995, with the final episode of its Nick run, "A Scooter for Yaksmas". The series initially did not have a consistent grouping of segments into episodes, episodes and interstitial segments aired out of production order, some episodes and interstitials were produced for one season and aired in another, and two episodes, "Man's Best Friend" and "Sammy and Me / The Last Temptation", did not air in the series' original Nickelodeon run at all due to different reasons. "Man's Best Friend" aired on the Ren & Stimpy "Adult Party Cartoon" for Spike TV in 2003 alongside the uncut show's pilot, "Big House Blues". "Sammy and Me / The Last Temptation" aired on October 20, 1996, on MTV.
