The show that walked so that Spongebob could run

Dun forget Ren And Stimpy and these "Hyper Detailed" still Close up shots for shock and impact...

I actually like this version of the theme song more If it’s more with the show tone

Classic

The PG Ren & Stimpy

Indeed. A good number of the SpongeBob cast and crew (especially the creator) got their start with Rocko's Modern Life.

@GuyDecidue51287 That is an insult. SpongeBob only came to be because Rocko got cancelled, and on a dark note because it ended with Rocko getting lost in outer space to perish. He ALMOST came back, but his TV movie got cancelled and dumped on Netflix. Rocko deserves better.

@OOCCouchGags Why can’t they keep this theme tune for season 2 onwards?

I lowk fucked with the season 2-4 intro

I still want a crossover. (no, it's a cartoon, doesn't need to make any sense)

Don't forget Zanzibar an episode that was a precursor to Phineas and Ferb.

I swear Season 2 - 4 had a different tune in the theme song after the first season. It wasn't same.

The show that ran so Camp Lazlow could be stuck at the starting line eating paint chips

What? That’s such an insult to Rocko. SpongeBob wishes it was as funny or clever as Rocko. They’re nothing alike.

Number one, Rocco fan over here ☝️😭

I mean

ruined this show with the Netflix trans movie

What surprises me as an adult about this show, was that it had social commentary.

Nah it was Definitely Ren & Stimpy! Then this lol

I don’t remember the song sounding like that

Ball knower

Always loved the music for this opening as opposed to the one they had in the later seasons.

my favorite forever!!

I still think it's funny that this show predicted adult swim's early content.

this show was fucked and we were sitting there loving it hahahha amazing

the fat kid sidekick

This with some rice crispies treats cereal milk 🫶

Rocko was ren and stimpy without the crystal meth

this was always the better intro compared to the one by the B-52s

I like to think it's Ren and Stimpy -> Rocko -> SpongeBob like a 3 stage Pokémon evolution. All 3 shows share a lot of DNA
