We’ve spoken in length about Rocko’s Modern Life and how the show was totally inappropriate for kids. But, for some reason, Nickelodeon gave it the green light and gave the creators free rein. In this scene, we see a working-class slug enjoying an issue of Playslug, which is clearly a fictitious version of Hugh Hefner’s Playboy.
Anyway, back in the 2000s, there was a rally by millennials to bring Rocko back to Nickelodeon. After quite a bit of back and forth, Nick relented and brought the show back on air. After its comeback, we realized how messed-up the show was, and Rocko was put to rest for good not long after.
