As one of the /co/ posters mentions, it looks like an attempt to ride on the interest generated from Dexter's Rude Removal.
Still, it's not surprising if an unreleased episode can go completely unnoticed for years, especially for a relatively less popular show like Rocko's Modern Life.
It could also be an ep which is hardly ever shown in the U.S (Leap Frogs)
http://s1.zetaboards.com/Conceptual_Evolution/ http://sagan4.com/forum/index.phpHey, folks, let's revive this hyar thread! And no, I don't apologize for necroing it. This needed to be necroed.
On the subject of Rocko... It is my very first memory ever, both of TV and the day I got a bigger cable system. (I can even remember the episodes - "Schnit-heads" and "Rocko's Happy Sack.")
It's one of my favorite Nicktoons next to Ren and Stimpy, and although both were equally great, if I had to pick, Rocko would be my favorite because it never had an awful episode, just episodes that weren't as funny as the rest.
"They say I'm old fashioned, and live in the past, but sometimes I think progress progresses too fast."I adore Rocko's Modern Life. The surrealism, the characters, how true it is... this post in this thread compelled me to check if season 4 was available on DVD yet by itself and, lo and behold, it is! Added to my Amazon wishlist, since I already own seasons 1-3. It's among my favorite Nicktoons as well. I remember when seasons 3 and 4 were new.
I always identified with Filburt the most.
I remembered I used to hate this show when I was little because of the gross out humor. But, after I saw this show years later and noticed the adult humor littered throughout the show and the surrealistic nature of the show, I started to really love this show and I've been buying the T-shirts and watching it online ever since!
I love animation, TV, movies, YOU NAME IT!Well, why wouldn't you identify with him? He is the cheese. He is the best character on the show. He is better than both the salami and the bologna combined!

"They say I'm old fashioned, and live in the past, but sometimes I think progress progresses too fast."Rocko was hilarious, used to be my favorite nicktoon other than Rugrats and Doug when I was little.
The animation episode was classic.
Man I'm gonna watch it now lol.
That was my favorite Nicktoon. I even quoted the last line in the episode "Zanzibar" in an Earth Day tweet last week.
“Imagination is more important than knowledge." -Albert EinsteinAt one point, this was my favorite show ever; almost every episode I've seen was pure comedy gold.
Sad part is that I haven't watched 'em all yet...Must rectify that soon.

"Curry killed the pussy hoping that I could kill the hate in you" - Curry, D. "TABOO | TA13OO." TA13OO, PH, 2018That's the one.
“Imagination is more important than knowledge." -Albert EinsteinThe show did, after all, provide us with one of Nickelodeon's finest hours in "Wacky Delly." To describe every episode as "pure comedy gold" is no understatement.
"They say I'm old fashioned, and live in the past, but sometimes I think progress progresses too fast."It's "I am the best character on the show! I am better than both the salami and the bologna combined!"
"They say I'm old fashioned, and live in the past, but sometimes I think progress progresses too fast."It's been too long, man.
Is this on Netflix streaming?
No it isn't. In fact, NO Nick shows are available on Netflix... but all the CN shows are. Bizarre.
There's probably episodes on You Tube, though.

"They say I'm old fashioned, and live in the past, but sometimes I think progress progresses too fast."Just finished rewatching the series, since I got the fourth season DVD at the beginning of the month.
The fourth season DVD comes with a "Wacky Deli LIVE" feature. A reading of Wacky Deli part 1 with the pilot of the Show Within a Show screened, and then a Q&A section with the players. Hosted by Rob Paulsen, so bonus.
I wish they would have let Filburt keep the name Lester Roquefort, since that is the name fitting for the best character on the show.
Well, then we wouldn't have got one of the greatest lines in Nickelodeon history.
If I ever meet Doug Lawrence I'll ask him to say that and "I went to college!" into a tape recorder.
By the way: did anyone know that this series, like Ren And Stimpy, spawned a comic book from Marvel? It didn't last as long as the R&S comic - only 6 issues were ever made, and I've only ever found one, in a comic place in Salem.
"They say I'm old fashioned, and live in the past, but sometimes I think progress progresses too fast."Another star episode i recall is the giant Caddyshack reference, where Ed Bighead plays golf against, i think his name was Mr. DuPette? The Conglom-O CEO. Heffer was a gardener for the golf course and kept playing Spanner in the Works to his boss, the chief groundskeeper and a Darth Vader Expy, who was trying to rig the game against Ed. One of the more humorously bizarre antics was that the Vader expy could interfere with Eds game by firing whole pianos at Ed's golf balls.
Bump
Rocko and Heffer are SO ADORABLE!! They would make great toys for the kiddies
but yeah, this is a good show. I consider my 3rd favorite nicktoon. Very clever, had great voice acting, and cute looking characters (aside from those frogs with the big heads). Too bad it got cancelled and the creator went to work on that super annoying cartoon on CN. Ugh. >:\
Supports cartoons being cartoony!The Bigheads were voiced by Charlie Adler, so that excuses everything.
And Camp Lazlo was a pretty entertaining program. It wasn't Rocko, but then again, what is?
"They say I'm old fashioned, and live in the past, but sometimes I think progress progresses too fast."I would have found it more watchable if the characters weren't so annoying. It was like every time one of them spoke, I had to switch the channel. It wasn't even because of the voices most of the time.
Though, I like the way the characters look and the backgrounds.
Supports cartoons being cartoony!I loved this show when I was a kid, so I went and bought the entire series on DVD at a video trading store. I must say, I'm amazed at just how many adult jokes they got away with putting in, to the point that I'm almost surprised that any of it got censored at this point after already getting away with a lot. Man, censors barely gave a crap back in the 90's and early 2000's.
Joe Murray will tell you it was the "Wild West" days of cable, when you could get away with anything because nobody gave a crap.
The censors did eventually get to it. While "Leap Frogs" has since been reinstated as an episode, and it's available on DVD, the same cannot be said for some of the bits they cut out. The milking machine scenes in "The Good, the Bad and the Wallaby" do not appear on the DVD, and if you want to see them, you have to buy the VHS the episode appeared on.
"They say I'm old fashioned, and live in the past, but sometimes I think progress progresses too fast."RML is my favourite of the 90s Nicktoons. It always bugged me though that people say its a kid's show. Joe Murray himself said that the show was never intended solely for children. It was for both adults and kids, hence the adult innuendos and satire mixed with the gross-out and surreal humour. That being said, the multi-demographic appeal is one of the reasons I love Rocko's.

I've decided to make a thread on this show because of this
It's either going to be.....
1. This for half an hour
2. An ep with a censored scene uncensored
3. An actual unseen ep that the internet doesn't know about
