Nickelodeon Animation Studio has revealed on the studios' official Career Opportunities website that they are currently looking for Storyboard Artist to work on a brand-new TV movie based on the networks classic original animated series Rocko's Modern Life!

"At Home restaurant and who should walk in?Rocko news is pending#modernlife @fuzzyimagemedia @SMShow @voiceroy"
The news follows Nickelodeon recently greenlighting a live-action TV movie inspired by its iconic game show Legends of the Hidden Temple and a two-part animated Hey Arnold! TV movie, written and executive produced by the series' original creator Craig Bartlett, as part of the networks plans to revive some of their iconic properties.
Rocko's Modern Life centerd on the surreal life of a Australian wallaby named Rocko and his friends: the gluttonous steer Heffer, the neurotic turtle Filburt, and Rocko's faithful dog Spunky. The series was set in the town of O-Town.
Created by Joe Murray, Rocko's Modern Life premiered on Nick USA on September 18, 1993 as the networks fourth Nicktoon and ran for 4 seasons. The series launched the careers of SpongeBob SquarePants creator Stephen Hillenburg, as well as the voice of SpongeBob/Heffer, Tom Kenny. The shows theme tune was performed by Kate Pierson and Fred Schneider from new wave band The B-52's.
