3.0 out of 5 stars It's cut, October 6, 2008

By	Buddy Guy - See all my reviews

OK, just two things, First off, these episdoes are censored. I had high hopes that these box sets would be uncut, but they are not. To see what scenes were edited out, goto the alternate versions section on this series IMDB page. This does not give me alot of hope for future box sets being uncut. Sigh.

Second, these DVDs are DVD-Rs. They will not play on our DVD players. They did not play on either of my DVD players, and they are both less than one year old. Check you owners manual before ordering to make sure that your player can handle DVD-R format.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazon exclusive, August 24, 2008

By	Soul to Steal "Misty" (^^) - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase

This is an Amazon exclusive and won't be sold in stores. Amazon worked out a deal with nickelodeon to "Burn on demand" meaning upon receiving an order that Amazon will create the dvd and insert then ship it to the buyer...

I hope eventually Amazon can have Rocko's modern life in season sets

Audio and picture quality in these dvd's are excellent, The best of Rocko's modern life volume 1 includes two dvd disc containing 12 episodes... Don't expect any dvd extras at all.


Disc-1
1.Carnival knowledge (Rocko and Heffer go to a carnival at the sewage treatment plant)
2.Sand in the navel (While at the beach, Rocko's dog spunky gets swooped up by a pelican.Now Rocko's afraid he's lost him forever)
3.A sucker for the suck-o-matic (Rocko buys a new vacuum cleaner that seems to have a mind of its own)
4.Canned (When Rocko loses his job, he tries out odd jobs before going to an interview at Conglom-o)
5.Rocko's happy sack (Heap-o-food has a 99% off sale and Spunky accidently gets wrapped up and put on sale in the meat case)
6.Flu-in-u-enza (Rocko's got the flu and needs a cure before the championship wrestling match)

Disc-2
1.Who's for dinner (Heffer learns the wolves that raised him are not his natural parents)
2.Love spanked (Rocko whens a date with Heffer while on the game show"love seat")
3.Clean lovin (Spunky falls in love with the kitchen mop)
4.Unbalanced load (Chaos at the laudromat when the grimes try ruining Rocko's lucky shirt)
5.Leap frogs (Mrs.Big head invites Rocko over in an attempt to make Ed Bighead jealous))
6.Bedfellows (Heffer's parents rent out his room so he moves in with Rocko, but quickly overstays his welcome)

I hope these dvd sets sell enough for Amazon to quickly offer my other favorites "The rugrats" "Catdog" and "The Angry beavers" season sets...

1.0 out of 5 stars GREAT SHOW, Crappy Media!, April 2, 2009

By	donald J ronemus "Don" (Alburtis, PA United States) - See all my reviews

What a GREAT show but what crappy DVD's. How dare they edit the original show! Then, on top of that, I had to make my own DVD's to get them to work right on my DVD players. I wish I had the discipline to send them back because of how horrible the media was but I was so starved for a good quality recording of Rocko. For me anything was better than nothing. The media and censorship made this very close to nothing; this is why it gets a 1 star from me. (Show rates a 5 star rating)
