Anyone here remember the show "rocko's modern life" from nickelodeon in the 90's? They still play it on the nicktoons network. It is actually very funny at times with adult humor, sexual innuendo, and funny puns. I can't believe they haven't released it on DVD yet.

I remember watching it as a kid and then one day my mother saw the show and didn't want me watching it anymore because she didn't like the humor in it. But I still watched it because it was hard not to.

I watched it all the time, mainly because it came on right after Ren & Stimpy. I liked the episode where they went to France, and the one where Rocko was getting his house remodeled, and every room was a bathroom.

Could really go for a DVD release of it. It was probably my favorite comedy show when I was younger.

I Loved Rockos Modern Life! I loved it becuse the only normal person was rocko and everyone and the world around him was insane.
I also loved the 'Angry Beavers', another nickolodein show

| I remember being semi-interested in that show. It didn't really have a huge impact on me, though. |

I liked it when Spunky was eating the salmon from Mr. and Mrs. Big Head's salmon bushes, and Mr. Big Head said "Hey you, get out of my salmon bushes!"

There's so much adult humor in that show i only understand now that i'm grown up. For the first season or so the restaurant that rocko and friends always ate at was called "chokey chicken". I guess because of parents' complaints they had to change the name to "chewey chicken".

Ren and stimpy was freakin hilarious. The first 2and a half seasons are the best, as they were written by John K and his Spumko staff. It's such a shame that nickelodeon fired him from his own cartoon and took over. Yes, ren and stimpy was way ahead of its time and was often very extreme, but the episodes that came after john k was fired and games animation took over were also often very extreme. Makes no sense.

I loved Rocko's Modern Life! I haven't seen it on Nicktoons for at least half a year though... But yeah, it's actually one of the first shows I remember watching. And now when I watch it, it's always fun to pick up all the adult things I missed when I was little (like these two doctors in one episode being named Seymour and Dick LOL).
