Nickelodeon UK & Paramount Release 'Rocko's Modern Life: The Complete Series' DVD Set

UK - Fans of Nickelodeon’s beloved '90s animated series Rocko's Modern Life can now own the entire animated series with the brand-new "Rocko's Modern Life - Seasons 1-4" DVD set!


"Modern life got you down? Take a break from all the pesky neighbours, freeloading pals and hazardous household chores with Rocko’s Modern Life: The Complete Series! This 8-disc box set is a laundry basket overflowing with every single episode of one of Nickelodeon’s biggest animated series. Relive over 21 hours of laugh-out-loud, live-and-learn misadventures, including fan-favourite episodes “Carnival Knowledge”, “ Sand in Your Navel”, “To Heck and Back” and “Flu-In-U-Enza”. Plus, stick around for more loony life lessons, like when Rocko realises garbage day is a very dangerous day, Heffer rushes to the hospital after eating way too many pasture puffies, a fortune cookie tells Filburt bad luck will infest his pathetic soul for all eternity, and more!"

Rocko's Modern Life - Seasons 1-4 includes 8 discs featuring all 52 episodes from the shows four-season run.

The set looks like it's based on a Shout! Factory US release, as it features the edited versions of "The Good, The Bad and The Wallaby" and "Hut, Saw, Raw", which both got edited in the US, but have always remained uncut on the UK airings. However, a scene from "Put to Pasture" which was cut by Nickelodeon UK is available in all its glory on this release which is a bonus.

Unfortunately, it looks like the DVD set does not include any bonus features, such as the original pilot version of “Trash-O-Madness”, “Wacky Delly” Live 2012, and commentary by creator Joe Murray on select episodes, which will also feature on the Rocko’s Modern Life: The Complete Series DVD set which will be released this Thanksgiving in the US.

Weirdly, the DVD set also carries a 12 age certificate, which is odd, as its a cartoon aimed towards kids. This isn't unusual though, as a 2012 DVD release of The Secret World of Alex Mack carried a 15 age rating.

Produced by Nickelodeon Home Entertainment and distributed by Paramount Home Entertainment, the region two DVD has a running time of 1319 minutes.

"Rocko's Modern Life - Seasons 1-4" is available in purchase on Amazon.co.uk, and will be available on online shops such as HMV and Zavvi from Monday 19th November 2018. The average price is £34.99 GBP.

All-in-all, "Rocko's Modern Life - Seasons 1-4" is a good deal, and is bound to get you in the mood for the upcoming TV movie, Rocko’s Modern Life: Static Cling! Reliving the crazy modern life antics of Rocko will sure to be a hoot!
