Well, I'd hope not. It aired on Spike TV after hours, along with Gary the Rat and the attempted Ren and Stimpy revival  Adult Party Cartoon.


Reminds me so much of my dad.

Perhaps no surprise, the network's animation block was killed shortly thereafter    >>().

It was a fiasco all around... they gave John Kricfalusi carte blanche, and he turned in a half-a dozen cartoons which ran the gamut from passable to downright horrific, suffering from uneven pacing and bizarre, disjointed jokes that rang more weird than funny.  I think the big problem was a new creative team and not having guys like longtime collaborator Bob Camp to reign in some of Kricfalusi's more incomprehensible flights of fancy. Only three of the new episodes ever made it to the air, plus an encore of the original "Fire Dogs" and the rarely seen "Man's Best Friend".

That said, my brother and I grew up on the classic R&S shorts, and this one was one of our favs.
We used to perform the whole scene where the boys first meet Wllbur Cobb verbatim.  "...Walter Lantz! That no-account son of a... bus driver!!" I'd play Cobb; he'd do Stimpy.  It was a riot.

Classic R&S is decent to downright bizarre and good.  It truly varies and it depends on your humor type.

More Kricfalusi series concepts: The Heartaches
...I hope to God he meant "peas".    :-]

Surprisingly, a lot of these unused ideas are quite well-done and workable.  Given John K.'s damaged reputation and his desperation to sell something, I bet some enterprising writer/producer could have 'em for a song. They'd just have to keep his name off it and pay him under the table.

I watched some R&S growing up, but it wasn't entirely my thing.  I actually liked it more during my edgier period in life.

The final episode of Arthur premiered February 2022.  PBS put the episode up.  Final episode after how many years?  A lot.

Britain had many great kids shows and Postman Pat was certainly one of them!  ^b-
