SpongeBob SquarePants is funny but can not stand up to the almighty power of Rocko's Modern Life. Rocko's Modern Life had more adult jokes and it had Filburt, Dr. Hutchison and Heffer. They are REALLY what make me like Rocko's Modern Life more. And another thing was how Rocko's Modern Life stayed at the same quality for all four seasons even when Joe Murray left while SpongeBob SquarePants sort of lacked off after Steve Hillenburg left.
But they only differ by a couple points. I give Rocko's Modern Life a 10.0 and I give SpongeBob SquarePants a 9.5.
I will probably be outnumbered but I don't care. Rocko's Modern Life went with quality over quantity and SpongeBob is probably going to kill itself with the next season. See there was going to be a fifth season of Rocko's Modern Life but Joe Murray stopped it from happining because he knew the show would drop in quality since he wasn't there. THAT'S JUST MY OPINION.
