#Rocko modern life heffer series
A shaved and elderly version of Heffer makes a cameo appearance in the series finale of Murray's other show, Camp Lazlo, as the real scoutmaster. However, Heffer's father seems to have very little patience for his son, even to the point of dropping the short-tempered bombshell that "your mom's a car seat in Illinois." This seems to stem from his claim that he's had dozens of children like Heffer who always come seeking his affection.
It is revealed in an episode (Specifically the episode 'Who's for Dinner?', where Heffer's "birthmark" is also revealed) that Heffer's biological father is still alive with a girl cow named Joyce living in a trailer in the Canoga Park section of the San Fernando Valley region of Los Angeles. Another running gag is Heffer being called a cow, which is usually corrected by him or his father calling Heffer a steer, though " heifers" are indeed female. Heffer's large size "added weight 473lbs" often has him hungry or eating. At the local skating rink, he is known as "The King," and performs his own skating routine at the request of the patrons. Despite his size, he can be very nimble at times, most notably when he is roller-skating. Heffer holds several jobs: tree farmer, greenskeeper at a golf course, mail carrier, security guard, waiter at a café, and cashier. Also he seems to be a hopeless romantic at times as mentioned in " Sugar Frosted Frights," where he asks Filburt's shell while in an eight-ball mode if he will ever find true love. The Nickelodeon South East Asia website describes him as an "overgrown slob." Despite being obese, he can drive unlike Rocko he does not wear seat belts, mostly because the seat belts do not extend enough for him to wear them comfortably. The Nickelodeon UK page describes Heffer as a "devoted friend" who "loves life." Heffer's lack of fear mostly stems from stupidity instead of genuine bravery. Heffer Wolfe in the Rocko's Modern Life comic book The mark which Heffer believed to be a " birthmark" on his buttocks is actually the plotting lines showing where the wolves were going to divide him. Eventually the family grew to love Heffer, so they instead raised him, not letting him know that he was adopted until Rocko accidentally revealed the truth when the Wolfe family invited him for dinner. Marsh added that the animators found keeping the sides straight "a little tricky at first" and that they referred to the design as " Tombstone-shaped." Character īest friend of Rocko, Heffer was raised by wolves in O-Town-as seen by his family name-who originally were going to eat him, and thus began to fatten him. Jeff "Swampy" Marsh, a storyboard writer, says that Heffer's right eye and left nostril are "notched at the bottom" due to Murray's design style. Kenny said that the voice was "ot dead on, but some of his quirks I incorporated into the Heffer audition." The boy, who was 13 when the Heffer voice started, was the son of Kenny's brother.
Kenny based Heffer's voice on the voice of a nephew of his at the time the nephew was a teenager.
Murray auditioned Tom Kenny in a large casting call in Los Angeles and chose him as the voice actor for Heffer. Vince Calandra wrote the Heffer's origin plotline in Season 1. Originally, Murray did not include any information about Heffer's origins in his pitch to Nickelodeon. Murray originally wrote "Sucker for the Suck-O-Matic" as the pilot episode the executives decided that Heffer would be "a little too weird for test audiences." Murray, instead of removing Heffer from "Sucker for the Suck-O-Matic," decided to write "Trash-O-Madness," an episode without Heffer, as the pilot episode. Tom Kenny voiced Heffer and was chosen for the role in a large casting call in Los Angeles.
