Well, looks like he apologized for the whole Casey Alexander thing.
And about time too.
Though I might be skeptical of this (he might have done this only when he realized it made him look bad), this is a step in the right direction.
"They say I'm old fashioned, and live in the past, but sometimes I think progress progresses too fast."Or he might have actually felt bad about it. A similar thing happened with his review of the MLP FIM episode "Putting Your Hoof Down", said review he highly regrets only because of the personal attacks he made on the writers of the episode {He still hates the episode itself, but he's not proud of some stuff he said in the review}. He also wasn't happy with the people who gave death threats to another FIM writer because of an episode he didn't like.

Yeah...you know, I'm still pretty skeptical.
"They say I'm old fashioned, and live in the past, but sometimes I think progress progresses too fast."His fans will love this. I'm imagining all the thumbs ups on this video.

Supports cartoons being cartoony!Was that supposed to be sarcastic or serious?
"They say I'm old fashioned, and live in the past, but sometimes I think progress progresses too fast."serious. If it was sarcastic, I would have put the sarcasm mode lol

Supports cartoons being cartoony!This is going to get him a lot of views. I can tell because every deviation he makes about it gets a buttload of comments lol
As a Ren and Stimpy fan who finds the apc watchable, I like the episode. I understand why people won't though. A lot of things kid ren were things John did in his childhood (minus the frog) and the story was suppose to be in season 2! If he wanted to do an animated atrocity for the apc, he should have done Onward and Upward imo. It's not awful, but it's very gross.
Supports cartoons being cartoony!They must have made the episode more "adult" when it broadcast - nothing like that would have passed muster on a kids network!
Apparently the episodes of APC were rejected storylines from the original show. The story editors' complaints (see Sick Little Monkeys) are eerily prescient, and one would think had John remembered those complaints, he'd be better off.

"They say I'm old fashioned, and live in the past, but sometimes I think progress progresses too fast."yep. I think the only one that wasn't was naked beach frenzy.

The episode was entitled "Ren Needs Help," and it bears little resemblance to the APC episode - the Games episode is about Ren getting committed to an insane asylum.
"They say I'm old fashioned, and live in the past, but sometimes I think progress progresses too fast."On the topic of Enter, he seriously should change his score card. Very cluttered and confusing.
Supports cartoons being cartoony!Though Sick Little Monkeys has the opinion that the animal abuse is not gratuitous - it serves to illustrate how fucked up Ren is.
Maybe we're all seeing the episode wrong?
"They say I'm old fashioned, and live in the past, but sometimes I think progress progresses too fast."On John's blog for this episode, he said the episode wasn't meant to condone animal abuse in a comment.

Supports cartoons being cartoony!I wonder if he'll actually bring that up in the review...
boop I'm more active on hereTo be honest, I really don't think so.
He doesn't seem to get the difference between showing an action and condoning the action - in fact, a lot of people on this forum don't get it either.
"They say I'm old fashioned, and live in the past, but sometimes I think progress progresses too fast."I'm gonna try and inform him that as soon as possible. Maybe he'll add it to the script.
boop I'm more active on hereI tried telling him in his comments, but his fans didn't even bring up my points when replying. They just brought up irrelevant things to the topic -_-
hopefully he'll respond to you.
Supports cartoons being cartoony!Like what irrelevant things?

I believe it was some time before the Atlantis Squarepantis review.Done as a way to foreshadow that review in several of his videos(I actually thought at first it was some sort of reference to a horror movie).
