Looks sweet. I'm super happy that we're getting this far into the show's run.

I haven't got season 2 yet since I've been low on cash and haven't had a chance to go over to Walmart yet. I hope to get it soon though.
Life is not about the second chances. It's about a little mouse and his voyage to an exciting new land. That, my friend, is what life is.

Sir, do you have any Warrants?
I got their first CD, but you can't have it, motherfucker!

So good. Ugh, I still need to pick up season 2 first.  >:(

Eh, for me the season 1 theme conveyed the whole "average suburban living -> annoying inconveniences -> sheer horror" feel better over all. Season 2 just sounded like just another B-52's track.

Commode

I like the first theme better too, it just flows better.

And I don't know if the show getting better with each passing year is that rare, several other shows did it.  Most of Tiny Toons best episodes are in seasons 2 and 3, including the movie.  I just don't think it went long enough to get bad(it'd be like if The Simpsons had wrapped it up with "Cape Feare", the last episode produced by the original team).
It doesn't matter what you say, soon you'll be dead anyway.

Season 1's theme is a little too slow-paced for my tastes, and I'm just so used to season 2+ since I heard it a hell of a lot more than I did the original opening.

Fish N Chumps is one of the best episodes in the series.

Joe's put out a better version of the cover:



Also a post on it and that he thinks season 3 is the best season of the four. It's hard to argue with that.

I still have to buy seasons one and two. Part of me feels silly getting them when they're on Netflix but the other part of me wants to own this show.

Avaitor

I'd buy them regardless of Netflix because who knows how long they'll stay up. Nick can be pretty irregular with things like that if you notice. They don't even have the first 3 seasons of Rugrats on there anymore.

The Nick stuff is extremely finicky here. Rocko and Monsters is already gone, we never got Beavers or Doug and only Rugrats, Avatar, and Zim is still on.

So yeah, I'd rather just ensure I have them. Nick can't be trusted.

And with Rugrats the first three seasons (i.e. the only good ones) aren't available anymore. It's only the shitty episodes.

Avaitor

We never got Doug either. Another random thing was that for a while, only the first season of The Wild Thornberrys was up, and when that came out on DVD, they dropped it.

Well, season 3 of Rocko's Modern Life will be available on July 3rd, so I'll be continuing my collection (I already have seasons 1 and 2).
