The first still made for the unfinished episode.

Status: Partially Found

"Life Sucks" is an unfinished episode of Ren & Stimpy Adult Party Cartoon for Spike TV. Even though first part of the storyboard pretty much finished, the rest of the parts of the entire episode remains unknown. Little known about the scrapped episode's plot, it's revolves around the meaning of optimists and pessimists: Stimpy is in a very good believing that the whole world and life is all nothing but pure happiness. Ren on other hand believes everything is evil, filled with deaths or whatnots. To convince Stimpy to admits the truth about the world and life itself, first Ren tells him the story of Children's Crusade with an art style similar to Golden Books.

Many Spumco employees considered it the best Ren & Stimpy episode ever written. The episode intended to be seventh/eighth episode Ren & Stimpy Adult Party Cartoon, but after the show's cancellation due to it's very poor ratings, the hopes of "Life Sucks" getting completed are very slim. Despite being unfinished, many fans theorized that Life Sucks could be a prequel to Ren Seeks Help since John K stated that Ren must've done something horrible to Stimpy in a abusive relationship scene from that episode but doesn't want to explain what happened before it. From the looks of the storyboard, this episode might or might not be the explanation.

Although only 8 minutes of the cartoon's animatic have been released, John K. has posted several sketches of additional scenes to his blog.[1]
