Rockos Modern life/Ren And Stimpy - Page 2 - Never Forgotten: a Foster's Home Community

I don't remember ever watching Rocko, but I watched a few episodes of Ren and Stimpy. Personally, they weren't my taste. But I do remember, and always will, the phrase "Happy happy, joy joy!" And even now, years later, even though I never really watched it, I still say that when I'm happy about something.

Rocko's Modern Life was a good one - easily one of the best cartoons they ever broadcast on Nickelodeon, I always enjoyed it. Never really got into Ren and Stimpy though. I could watch it in small doses every now and then, back when Nickeldeon was my favourite channel, and though there were bits and pieces which would make me chuckle, there was just something about the show as a whole which I ultimately found unappealling - I never cared much for the animation style, and though the two titular characters could be entertaining, I seldom found either of them to be all that likeable. It goes to show how much attention I paid at the time that it took me a couple of years to even realise that Ren was a dog (more specifically, a chihuahua) - previously, I'd always assumed that he was some kind of bizarro rat/rabbit hybrid.

Ren & Stimpy was ok, but Rocko is awesome. It's my third favorite Nick show (behind Zim & Angry Beavers). It used to be 4 but Spongebob jumped the shark as soon as the old writers left for Lazlo.

I was never a big fan of Rocko but I loved Ren & Stimpy. I'd watch it whenever I could, and laughed endlessly. The History Eraser Button skit is one of my faves.

Looking back at those shows, I think that, of the two nicktoons that I used to watch, my favorite would have to be Rocko, simply because the humor was better, as well as some episodes.

Ren and Stimpy, on the other hand, just doesn't appeal to me that much, but that's just me.

I loved both of these shows back in the day even though I was oblivious to the adult jokes back then.

There are DVD sets for Ren and Stimpy, but alas...not for ol' Rocko.

Rocko is pure win. "WACKY DELLY YEAH"

R&S was a bit gross for me, but it's one of my favorites growing up. Happy Happy Joy Joy is one of the funniest parts of any 90's cartoon ever.
