Why Some Episodes Were Changed

One episode featuring George Liquor, called "Man's Best Friend," was not shown on Nickelodeon. This was because some scenes were considered too intense for television. As a result, the creator, John Kricfalusi, was given the rights to use George Liquor in other projects that were not part of Ren & Stimpy.

Story of Cans Without Labels

In the cartoon, George Liquor gives his nephews, Ernie and Slab, some inexpensive cans. When George opens the first can, it contains a strange human-like face. This surprises and scares his nephews. George becomes upset with them.

Later, Ernie and Slab give the can to another character, who is a parody of Donald Duck. This character then consumes the contents of the can. George offers to open another can for his nephews, but they decide to leave the house instead.
