To say I was excited when it was announced this special was happening would be an understatement. Rocko was one of my favorites as a kid. It was strange. It was weird. But at the heart of it all, it was always smart. Static Cling was no different and on top of it all, it was relevant to today. That's always the fear of these throwback projects. Yes, it worked in the past but will it work today. The answer folks is Oh Hell Yeah! I was honestly shocked at how good it was. So the theme throughout this special change and our different responses to it. Here's the part I say SPOILER ALERT. The plot starts when Rocko discovers his beloved show the Fat Heads was canceled while he was in space. He decides to go on an adventure to bring it back because he thinks he can't live in a world without it. Fast forward he finds the creator, Mr.BigHeads son, only he is now a woman. Though everyone else excepts this change Mr.BigHead does not. Rocko tries to help MR.BigHead accepts his daughter so she will make a Fat Heads special. Mr. BigHead eventually does come around and his daughter makes the special but it introduces a new character that Rocko does not like. It is such a well-told modern story and I recommend EVERYONE to watch it on Netflix right now!
