Michael John Kricfalusi (; born September 9, 1955), known professionally as John K., is a Canadian illustrator, blogger, voice role player and former animator, best known for creating the animated idiot box series The Ren & Stimpy Testify. From 1989 to 1992, he was heavily involved with the outset two seasons of the prove in near every attribute of its production, including providing the voice of Ren Höek and other characters.

Born in Quebec, Kricfalusi spent his early childhood in Deutschland and Belgium before returning to Canada at age seven. He acquired his skills largely by copying cartoons from newspapers and comic books as a child, and by studying cartoons and their production systems from the 1940s and 1950s. His main influence is Bob Clampett. After moving to Los Angeles in 1978, he collaborated with Ralph Bakshi and worked for Filmation, Hanna-Barbera, and DIC Entertainment on various shows. In 1989, Kricfalusi co-founded the blitheness studio Spümcø, with which he remained until its dissolution in 2005.

Nickelodeon fired Kricfalusi from Ren & Stimpy due to creative differences and his failure to meet product deadlines; the show connected for three boosted seasons without his involvement. Following this, he directed and produced animated television receiver commercials and music videos for entertainers such as Björk and Tenacious D. In the late 1990s, he created the first cartoons fabricated exclusively for the Cyberspace: The Goddamn George Liquor Program and Weekend Pussy Hunt. He returned to television with The Ripping Friends and the adult animation spin-off Ren & Stimpy "Adult Political party Cartoon". Since 2006, Kricfalusi has maintained a personal blog dedicated to cartoons and animation. At that place, he coined "CalArts style", a pejorative used for a widespread 2010s cartoon aesthetic.[iii] [4]

In 2018, Kricfalusi was defendant by two quondam Spümcø artists of grooming and sexually abusing them in the late 1990s, when they were teenagers.[v] Kricfalusi released an apology for his behavior, blaming his mental health and "poor impulse command".[half dozen] He has since alleged his withdrawal from the professional person animation industry.[7]

Early on years

Michael John Kricfalusi was born on September 9, 1955, in Chicoutimi, Quebec, Canada[one] to a begetter of Ukrainian descent and female parent of Scottish and English descent.[eight] : 32m He spent his early childhood in Germany and Belgium while his male parent was serving in the Majestic Canadian Air Force. He would watch weekend screenings of European feature-length cartoons such every bit The Snow Queen at Air Force cinemas. At age seven he returned with his family to Canada. Afterward their return they moved from Montreal to Ottawa in the center of a school season, and Kricfalusi spent much of his fourth dimension that year at dwelling house, watching Hanna-Barbera cartoons and cartoon them. Kricfalusi's interest in aureate-historic period blitheness crystallized during his stay at Sheridan College, where he attended weekly screenings of old films and cartoons at Innis College held by film archivist Reg Hartt, amongst them the cartoons of Bob Clampett and Tex Avery, which left a deep impression on Kricfalusi.[9] [10] After he was expelled from Sheridan College at the end of 1978, Kricfalusi moved to Los Angeles, California, intending to become an animator.[eleven] [12] [xiii]

Career

Inbound the animation industry

Subsequently moving to Los Angeles, Kricfalusi was introduced to Milt Gray by Bob Clampett, suggesting he should bring together Gray'due south classical blitheness class. Gray was working for Filmation at the time, and presently Kricfalusi found work there as well,[xiv] getting his start on shows like Super Friends and The Tom and Jerry Comedy Bear witness.[xv] His first independent cartoon was a short called Ted Bakes One, which he produced with Bill Wray in 1981 for a cable channel.[16] From 1979 to the mid-1980s, Kricfalusi worked for Filmation and after Hanna-Barbera and DIC Entertainment on various shows that he in one case described every bit "the worst animation of all time".[thirteen] [17] Even so, he did enjoy his piece of work equally a layout artist on the 1985 series of The Jetsons as he was able to train a team of Taiwanese animators to draw characters more emotive and wild, which at the fourth dimension was considered radical.[18] He recalls existence "saved" from having to work on these cartoons past director Ralph Bakshi, who had worked with him before in 1980 and 1982.[19] [20] They began working on the designs for the film Bobby's Daughter, which was sold to TriStar Pictures but was after cancelled.[20] [22] Under Bakshi, Kricfalusi directed the animation for The Rolling Stones' 1986 music video "Harlem Shuffle".[23]

Mighty Mouse

The team's most successful projection was Mighty Mouse: The New Adventures for CBS, based on the classic Terrytoons character. The series was well-received, and it is considered the precursor of creator-driven cartoons.[24] [25] Kricfalusi directed eight of the twenty-six episodes and supervised the series.[ane] At the get-go of the second season, Kricfalusi left the testify. The product of Mighty Mouse was very different from other cartoons at the time, gaining creative and artistic leeway thank you to the success of the irreverent Pee-wee'due south Playhouse on CBS a yr before. The animators had much more creative input, driven by Kricfalusi's production organization that emphasizes artistic contribution in every step of the process, from outline to storyboard to layout to the animation.[26]

Mighty Mouse was cancelled among controversy for allegedly depicting the principal character snorting cocaine. Bakshi maintained that neither he nor Kricfalusi had the character sniffing cocaine, and that the graphic symbol was sniffing the crushed petals of a bloom, which were handed to him in a previous scene in the cartoon.[27] [28] [29] In 1994, Kricfalusi pitched a revival series of Mighty Mouse to Paramount, which would take featured other Terrytoons characters such as Deputy Dawg, merely they rejected the thought.[30]

Beany and Cecil

Kricfalusi left Bakshi's studio to piece of work on The New Adventures of Beany and Cecil for ABC, where he teamed up with many of the people who would subsequently work with him on many of his Spümcø projects.[31] ABC had been negotiating for the product of the bear witness with the Clampett family, who insisted that Kricfalusi exist part of the production every bit he was a strong proponent of Bob Clampett's cartoon style. The long negotiations delayed the start of production to mid-July, causing much of the animation to be rushed in guild to run across the September deadline. Tensions rose between Kricfalusi and ABC over the tone of the bear witness, leading to an uncomfortable atmosphere for the show's coiffure. The more ABC strove to soften the evidence, the more Kricfalusi pushed for shocking and offensive textile. The Clampett family were ultimately non very happy with the drawing, but remained supportive of Kricfalusi.[26] ABC canceled the show later on six episodes, finding the humor not suitable for children's programming.[13]

Ren & Stimpy

Kricfalusi formed Spümcø animation studio with partners Jim Smith, Bob Army camp and Lynne Naylor.[32] They began working on a airplane pilot for The Ren & Stimpy Bear witness on behalf of Nickelodeon, after the eponymous characters were favored by Nickelodeon producer Vanessa Coffey in a presentation past Kricfalusi. The evidence came to garner high ratings for Nickelodeon,[12] [32] [33] [34] [35] and at the time was the nearly pop cable TV evidence in the United States,[36] but the network disagreed with Kricfalusi'south direction of the show, and disapproved of his missed production deadlines.[35] [37] Kricfalusi points specifically to the episode "Man's Best Friend", which depicts the character George Liquor as an abusive father figure, as the turning signal in his relationship with Nickelodeon.[38] One of the episodes, "Nurse Stimpy", did non meet Kricfalusi's approval[39] because of the low quality of the rough cut of the episode that they received from the overseas studio, leading him to use the alias Raymond Spum in its credits.[forty] Nickelodeon terminated Kricfalusi'due south contract late September 1992,[35] [41] [42] leaving it to Nickelodeon'southward Games Animation studio, which continued producing it for three more than seasons before its counterfoil.[43]

The Ripping Friends

Pull a fast one on Kids started airing the telly series The Ripping Friends in 2001, created by Kricfalusi and Jim Smith. Kricfalusi had previously tried pitching the evidence in the belatedly 1980s, but networks considered it "too extreme" and so did not pick information technology upwards.[44] Kricfalusi felt the prove'due south supervisors were doing abroad with the Spümcø mode and was displeased with the direction of the show.[ citation needed ] He considers the episodes he was involved in to exist experimental.[44] I of his contributions to the evidence was directing the voice-actors, which he "really worked-out" so much that he was afraid he'd give one of them a heart attack.[nineteen]

Ren and Stimpy "Adult Political party Cartoon"

In 2003, Spike TV produced a new evidence featuring Ren & Stimpy, which was written and directed by Kricfalusi.[45] The kickoff 3 episodes were based on fan ideas and scripts that were rejected by Nickelodeon during the original show's run.[19] According to Kricfalusi, Spike pushed for more S Park-like themes in the new show. While he was initially pleased with the added freedom afforded to him by Fasten, he later expressed disappointment in the series due to its dull pacing and overuse of toilet humor.[46] [47] [48] Only three episodes aired before Spike's entire animation block was "put on hold",[49] and the complete series was ultimately released in 2006 on DVD including 3 boosted episodes that never aired. Kricfalusi also wanted to release an episode titled "Life Sucks" direct to DVD, but the episode remains unproduced.[50]

Siebert approached Kricfalusi for advice and for recommendations for personnel to head the shorts, among them David Feiss, Tom Minton, Pat Ventura, and Eddie Fitzgerald.[52] [53] [54]

The costs amounted to $xl,000.[59] Initially, Sony Music did not permit the video to be placed on Tenacious D's website and instead placed it on the record characterization Grand Royal's website, just later relented.[58] In 2006, Kricfalusi directed two music videos, and served as art director for an animated musical segment. The first music video, for Close just No Cigar past "Weird Al" Yankovic, was released in September,[threescore] on the DVD side of the DualDisc album Direct Outta Lynwood, which features Kricfalusi'due south character Cigarettes the Cat.[61] [62] The 2d music video was for Classico by Tenacious D, starring the band members as cartoon characters.

Production later resumed under Icebox.com after the release of Spümcø'due south own web-based Flash drawing, The Goddamn George Liquor Programme.[70] [71] Between 1998 and 2001, Kricfalusi worked on several Hanna-Barbera cartoons for Drawing Network: three Yogi Bear cartoons he directed and animated, Boo Boo and the Man, A Day in the Life of Ranger Smith and Boo Boo Runs Wild, and ii Jetsons cartoons he produced, The Jetsons: Begetter & Son Day and The Jetsons: The Best Son.[17]

On Feb 13, 2006, Kricfalusi started his own blog, John K Stuff, posting about cartoons and the animation industry. The site was originally intended for other artists and entertainers, and specifically other cartoonists.[76]

Commercials and freelance piece of work

Kricfalusi directed commercials for Comcast[77] and Vox over IP visitor Raketu[78] in 2007. He was developing a serial of drawing commercials in 2008 for Pontiac Vibe starring George Liquor and Jimmy The Idiot Male child,[79] but the series remained unreleased later General Motors discontinued the Pontiac Vibe auto line in 2009.[80] He developed and animated a series of bumpers using Toon Boom Harmony for Developed Swim in 2011 and again in 2015.[81] [82] He animated the opening couch gags of two episodes of The Simpsons, "Bart Stops to Smell the Roosevelts", which aired in October 2011 and "Treehouse of Horror XXVI", which aired in October 2015.

He posted the concepts for these projects on his weblog.[84] [85] [86] [87] He partnered with animator Mike Judge to produce a series of shorts for UFC that aired on Adult Swim throughout 2016.[88]

Cans Without Labels

In 2012, Kricfalusi funded through Kickstarter a drawing short entitled Cans Without Labels, starring the character George Liquor (with Michael Pataki reprising the function for the final time before his death in 2010, having recorded his lines beforehand),[8] with the initial delivery date of Feb 2013. The cartoon was due to exist screened at the 2016 Annecy International Animated Film Festival for the beginning fourth dimension, however at the last infinitesimal it was announced that information technology was not gear up.[89] [90] All the same, on August 6, 2017, the Kickstarter was updated, announcing the picture show'due south completion.[91] On May 27, 2019, Kricfalusi announced the DVD masterings' completion and released information technology on his MyShopify shop within a calendar week or two, with backers receiving first priority.[92]

The short received negative reviews for its animation, humour, sound design, storyline and repeatedly delayed product, as well as Kricfalusi's conclusion to release it following the sexual abuse allegations made confronting him the previous year. Notwithstanding, some praised Pataki's vocalization acting performance.[93]

Retirement

In the 2020 documentary Happy Happy Joy Joy: The Ren & Stimpy Story, Kricfalusi stated in an interview that he was "officially retired" from the animation industry, "though not by choice".[7]

Influences

Kricfalusi says he is mostly self-taught, having only spent a year in Sheridan Higher, barely attention course. He acquired his skills largely by copying cartoons from newspapers and comic books as a kid, and by studying cartoons and their production systems from the 1940s and 1950s.[12] [thirteen] [16] His main influence is Bob Clampett,[26] [94] and he also names Chuck Jones, Frank Sinatra, Kirk Douglas,[95] [96] Milt Gross, Tex Avery, Peter Lorre, The 3 Stooges, Al Jolson, Bing Crosby, Dean Martin, Elvis Presley, Don Martin and Robert Ryan.[97] Michael Barrier, an animation historian, said that Kricfalusi'south works "testify to his intense adoration for Bob Clampett's Warner Bros. cartoons" and that no cartoonist since Clampett created cartoons in which the emotions of the characters "distort their bodies so powerfully".[98]

Sexual corruption allegations

In March 2018, former Spümcø employees Robyn Byrd and Katie Rice disclosed to BuzzFeed that Kricfalusi sexually harassed and groomed them while they were underage.[99] Byrd told the website that she was in a sexual relationship with Kricfalusi in 1997 at age xvi, and flew to California to live with him when she was 17. Rice said that Kricfalusi had flirted with her and made overt sexual comments towards her starting when she was 14, and sexually harassed her when she turned eighteen and began working at his animation studio, Spümcø. Documents Rice and Byrd had saved from those years corroborate their stories, and several people who worked with Kricfalusi referred to his sexual harassment every bit an open secret in the animation industry. Kricfalusi was also alleged to possess child pornography on his computer. Though the allegations were eventually reported to the police, they could neither arrest nor investigate Kricfalusi considering the statute of limitations had passed.[99]

In response, Kricfalusi'south lawyer confirmed that "for a brief fourth dimension, 25 years ago, he had a 16-year-old girlfriend", merely denied that Kricfalusi's "avid pursuit" of Rice was sexual harassment or that he had always possessed child pornography.[99] Kricfalusi released an amends to the women and his fans for his behavior, which he said was motivated by undiagnosed bipolar disorder and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), as well as "poor impulse command".[6] Byrd and Rice criticized Kricfalusi'southward argument as a non-apology and an attempt to deflect the arraign.[100]

Due to the allegations, Kricfalusi will non be involved in Comedy Central's upcoming revival of The Ren & Stimpy Show, nor will he receive whatever fiscal compensation from information technology.[101] [102]
