What happens

Big House Blues is a 1990 American animated comedy short film produced by Spümcø. Originally screened at a film festival on December 21, 1990, it was succeeded by The Ren & Stimpy Show on the network, which serves as a pilot episode. A censored version was later aired on Nickelodeon for its first season, while the full, uncensored version would air on Spike TV (now known as Paramount Network) in 2003 as part of the "first" episode of Adult Party Cartoon.
