Life can sure get complicated when you’re a wallaby from Australia who moves to America. Luckily for Rocko, his life is made easier thanks to his pals Heffer (a cow) and Filburt (a turtle). Now if he can only find a way to avoid Ed Bighead, a grumpy neighbor who detests Rocko and makes his modern life harder than it needs to be.

I’M NOT A DOG, I’M A WALLABY!

Joe wanted to be an artist since he was three years old. His first “recognition” as an artist came when his kindergarten teacher said that he was the only student who drew zippers on pants. Years later, Joe’s love of oddball things inspired Rocko. When on a trip to a zoo, he saw an Australian wallaby oblivious to the chaos around him.
