What happens

Trash-O-Madness is a 1992 short film and the pilot episode for the American animated series Rocko's Modern Life. It was directed and written by series creator Joe Murray, with Carlos Alazraqui providing all voices. A new version of the pilot, that was extended for the purposes of including it as a regular episode, was produced and released as part of the first season. It also features an extended end credit sequence to accommodate the names of production crew behind "Trash-O-Madness". On February 7, 2012, the original pilot version found its way onto Shout! Factory's season 2 DVD as a special feature. In Rocko's Modern Life: Spunky's Dangerous Day, the second level is named after this episode. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
