Actually, Weird Al has been writing and performing since the 70s; his "breakout" hits were parodies of Queen's "Another One Bites the Dust" (his was Another one rides the bus) and The Knack's "My Sharona (his song was My Bologna)
His career really peaked in the 80s, with all of his Michael Jackson and Madonna parodies, and his movie UHF.
He's still around and performing. I went to one of his concerts about 3 weeks ago - he's really good in concert. He's got a different costume for each song. And he's still writing new stuff.
Ren and Stimpy are back, on Spike TV (formerly TNN). They had been making new episodes but they were so bad that they're now just showing the old ones.
