Rocko!
 
I see 2 have Rocko avatars so I had to switch to one because I love the show. Wacky Delly is my all time favorite, though there are alot of episodes that are awesome anyways.

Yes, I enjoyed Rocko's Modern Life before it was popular on the 'net like Invader Zim is for example

When I was younger, I used to think Really Really Big Man was a butterfly.

But yeah, this show is the shit!

Thankfully when I was younger also I didn't see the obvious sexual jokes that littered the entire run of the show, but hilarious how long Nick took to realize it but it was too late by that point.

They were very subtle with the sexual/adult humor.

Then again, there were some blatant ones.

I've been watching the entire series this summer. I'm about to finish season 3. The memories are just all coming back to me now.

Are they on DVD yet or did you download them? I haven't seen the show in awhile because of NickToons pretty much not showing it anymore which limits my ability to see the show.


"Bad luck and misfortune will infest your pathetic soul for all eternity" Love that episode too, he goes through an entire giant bag only to get them, and heffer and rocko get the good ones. Then when he goes on Mega Spin and...spins, it fucks the world, but he wins anyways.

"I'm Mr. Lucky!"

Now I want to get the entire series on my iPod to watch as I please... :(

He got them from me, and I found them from a private tracker torrent site that I'm a member of.

I used to watch it all the time when I was a kid. Absolutely fantastic show. I should go back and watch it again.

I can't say I remember too many specific details about the show other than that it was my favorite Nick Toon and I'd definitely purchase it were it to ever see the light of day on DVD...
Which is doubtful... :(

Well they did release Ren and Stimpy, which was worse IMO.

Worse, but much more popular.

Nickelodeon already gave up on their whole... 90s nostalgia DVD lineup of Pete and Pete, Clarissa, etc...

Great show. You can find 'em on torrents.

And the sexual innuendos I never caught as a kid...

Oh yea I also loved that show as a kid. Anyone remember that recycling episode with that recycle song? I still find myself humming that song, and I havent seen that episode since they were still airing reruns on Nickelodan, which had to be at least 10 years ago. So catchy.

Security guard: then how do you know the words?
Heffer: Oh boy, he's got you there, Rock
Rocko: I don't know the words!
Accompanying singing group: He doesn't know the woorr--
Rocko: SHUT UP!!!!

Loved that as a kid

Earl is shunning us for spreading Rocko around GT again.

Shun him for all he's worth!

I liked this show a lot as a kid, though I have to say that Ren and Stimpy is pretty fantastic too and pretty messed up for a kids show as well. I'd personally say Ren and Stimpy is better.

magus113 08-04-2008 11:17 PM

Re: Rocko!
 
I never saw Ren and Stimpy as much as Rocko. I was mostly under parental supervision when I saw Ren and Stimpy and my mom was not pleased at all with that show.

My dad didn't care though. He had VHS tapes with a ton of episodes.

Rocko's Modern life still holds a place dear to me in my heart.

I'm on the second season right now.

Re: Rocko!
 
I think one of the more "obvious" kinda-sexual things was this weird thing between the gigantor purple hippo and Rocko. I remember one where he flies inbetween her huge breasts, looks up, and her voice changes from high pitched to sounding exactly like Ed Bighead saying "How DAAARREE YOUUU!!"

Buttering her back was another one (where Spunky got wrapped up and sold as dog meat)

That's one of things I vividly remember too. The way Mrs. Bighead was always attempting to seduce Rocko.

That caused me to experience sexual arousal for the first time. I was right around that age anyway...

The show was great and all, but there was also the SNES game, Spunky's Dangerous Day. Wow, such a frustrating, but still such an entertaining game!

Sadly I did not. My SNES collection was pretty slim actually.
