They ask Rocko if he’d like another cup of the vile swill, but Rocko refuses. He declares it hip and trendy and the brother’s are able to escape to America. Unbeknownst to their king, who has never had coffee before they serve him the dirty sock water. When he gets a break he puts the dirty sock water in a coffee pot, heats it up, and voila! The brothers have a way out of prison.
When none is to be found he throws them in a dungeon where a bearded Philbert (show regulars portray citizens of Balzac, with Heffer filling the shoes of the dictator,) is washing the dictator’s socks.
Turdy rocko modern life how to#
When he discovers coffee is all the rage, he demands the Brother’s figure out how to get some.
They did this kind of shit on purpose,) which was ruled by a Dictator who needed to stay in touch with the latest trends. The creators of Rocko’s Modern life know, too. You see, the Chameleon brothers lived in a country called Balzac (which, I know, sounds like “ball-sack”. Cue 90’s style gross-out site gag and we get right down to the plot. Rocko discovers a trendy new coffeehouse (in the 90’s, coffee shops were all the rage,) and tries a cup of coffee.
I chose the episode entitled “The Emperor’s New Joe” because it featured The Chameleon Brothers, the two guys who sound eerily like Bronson Pinchot’s character in Beverly Hill’s Cop. Of course, he has to contend with his horrible neighbors, the amphibious BigHeads, his neurotic friend Philburt the Turtle, and his best pal, Heffer Wolf (a steer raised by a family of wolves because half of this show makes no sense and that’s the beauty of it,) add to this his plucky dog Spunky and you have yourself a double thick nostalgia milkshake. Unfortunately, it seemed like Cartoon Network’s original line up sounded the death knell for anything even remotely decent to come out of Nick Studios (try as he might, not even the Immortal Marc Summers couldn’t help!) but we at least got a few really great toons and Rocko just happens to be one of them.įor those of you who didn’t grow up in the 90’s, Rocko’s Modern Life tells the story of a simple Wallaby who comes to America from Australia to lead a simple, adult, and modern life. Rocko’s Modern Life came out when Nickelodeon was riding the wave of awesome that eventually developed into a tsunami of mediocrity as the years went by. This week we’re heading to O-Town (and no, I don’t mean that shitty boy band,) to pay a visit to Rocko and his pals. What’s happenin’, Blabberfans? Paulie Von Doom jumping into the TARDIS and setting his sights on another classic 90’s cartoon from those knuckleheads over at Nickelodeon.
