Beverly Bighead is a fictional character in the television show Rocko's Modern Life and the comic of the same name.

[edit] Development

Joe Murray, the creator of Rocko's Modern Life, said that he based the Bigheads off of a group of neighbors who lived next door to Murray during his childhood. Murray described the neighbors as "grumpy and pissed about everything." ^[1] The general concept involving characters with large heads originated from a comic, written by Murray, named "Rizzo the Art Director."^[2]

[edit] Character

Bev Bighead in the comic book version

Bev is Ed Bighead's wife. Nickelodeon South East Asia's website describes her as "unique" and that "There's nobody else like her."^[3]

Bev "wears the pants" in the family; she demonstrates a loud, domineering manner and she keeps Ed in line. Despite all these, though, she has shown that she loves her husband very much. Beneath her ugly exterior and grating voice, she is a closet party animal .^[4](even going so far as to spy on her neighbors when Heffer threw a nudist party in Rocko's backyard) Bev likes Rocko and his friends and invited Rocko to her house on some occasions.^[3] In the "Leap Frogs" episode she tries and fails to seduce Rocko, but by the episode's end Rocko is somewhat responsible for rekindling the romance in the Bigheads relationship.
