Rocko's Modern Life: Season Two

 Review by Suzanne Lanoue 1/16/12

This is a fun, zany, high-energy cartoon that any kid should love.  It's not really my kind of thing, but kids should love it.

Rocko is a kangaroo, and he lives in your usual cartoon neighborhood without creatures, and people... the style of animation is very similar to Ren & Stimpy as far as I can tell.

The season 2 DVD set has all of the 13 episodes. It also has the original pilot, "Trash-O-Madness". The bonus features include the show's creator, Joe Murray, talking about Rocko and other characters as he sketches them. That part might be kind of boring for kids, but older fans should love it.
