Plot
Cast
- Ren – Voice of Billy West
- Stimpy – Voice of Billy West
Production
Unusual for the series, Billy West, an outsider contracted for voice acting, contributed to writing, due to the show's theme of showbiz resonating with his career; it is his only contribution to the series outside of voice acting. Mark O'Hare, a director on Rocko's Modern Life, produced storyboards for the episode as his only work on the series.
Reception
American journalist Thad Komorowski gave the episode three and a half out of five stars.
