Bev and Ed did grow older, to their 80's and 90's. Their kids were successful although, and lived on their own. Emily's singing was discovered, and she became a huge popstar, and lived in the Public eye. Although it was kind to her. She also became a philanthropist. Her brother idolized her, and admired her deeply, talked with her, and became best friends with her. It was just like Bev used to.

Paula and Filburt's children grew up, and held their own futures. Ralph eventually transitioned into a woman, became Rachel, and made amends with her parents, even if Ed was hard to accept the transition. Rocko, Rocko did get older, although he still remained friends with all of them, years later. It was quite something to be thankful for. It was quite something to be grateful for. He was grateful for everyone, and everything.

To be honest, I'm thankful for everything as well. I'm thankful for my interest in old Cartoons. I'm thankful for all of the ideas, and scenes, that came about from Cartoons. What I've learned from Western Animation, and cartoons is, that life isn't perfect. I've learned that honesty is the best policy, and that there is a darker, much more evil side to life. It's been pretty interesting learning, and placing adult themes in animation. It's the reality of life, and what happens in our lifetime, and what we experience.

There is going to be death. There is going to be suffering, and things aren't going to be perfect. Western Animation has allowed me to observe my life, my past, who I truly am, and who I want to be. Cartoons aren't just for entertainment. They are a form of education, and a form of stimulation for children everywhere. As children, we tend to form a bond with these characters, and get to know them better than we know our own families. As we grow older, we tend to learn even newer themes from these shows. Life is revealed to us through these themes, and we learn a bit more about ourselves from these shows.

Western Animation is a part of growing up, and it is a part of moving on in life. I'm thankful to have it, for now, and for always. I will always love American Cartoons. This era has its own gems. I've loved it for now, and for always. When it goes, I will miss it, but I know it will be with me, forever. Western Animation will always be my family.

Anyhow, Rocko loved his life, his Modern Life. He had his friends, who were an amazing family.
