Rocket Power

Rocket Power is an American animated television series created by Arlene Klasky and Gábor Csupó and produced by Klasky Csupo and Nickelodeon Animation Studio for Nickelodeon. The show centers on the daily lives of Otto, Reggie, Twister and Sam, four pre-adolescent children with an interest in extreme sports such as skateboarding and surfing while also getting into various situations.

The series aired on Nickelodeon from August 16, 1999 to July 30, 2004.

Rocket Power revolves around the day-to-day zany hijinks and adventures of a gang of four young and fiercely loyal friends; the adventurous and vain sports enthusiast and perfectionist: Otto Rocket; his tomboyish and kind-hearted older sister: Regina "Reggie" Rocket; Otto's dim-witted but loyal best friend and videographer: Maurice "Twister" Rodriguez; and the brainy techno whiz kid and relative newcomer: Sam "Squid" Dullard — who live in the fictional Southern California beach community of Ocean Shores where they spend their free time playing varied extreme sports (such as skateboarding, surfing, snowboarding, biking, street hockey, etc.), getting into a wide variety of situations and overcoming the trials and challenges of growing up.

Otto and Reggie live with their widowed strict but loving father and veteran surfer, Ray "Raymundo" Rocket, who along with his best friend and business partner, Tito Makani, owns and operates the Shore Shack, a combination burger joint and surf rental shop where the gang usually hang out. In most episodes, they get involved in competitions, but end up learning their friendship is more important than winning.

Rocket Power was produced by Klasky Csupo and Nickelodeon Animation Studio. Producers on the series include Susan Ward, Pernelle Hayes, Victor Wilson, John Crane, Maureen Iser and Erin Ehlich. Gábor Csupó, Arlene Klasky and Eryk Casemiro served as executive producers.

A VHS tape titled Maxing Out was released by Nickelodeon and Paramount Home Entertainment on August 7, 2001. It was sold exclusively at Toys 'R' Us and contained five episodes. On July 27, 2004, Nickelodeon and Paramount Home Entertainment also released the feature-length episode Island of the Menehune on VHS and DVD with the DVD including three bonus episodes. Other episodes were featured on multiple Nickelodeon compilation VHS tapes and DVDs such as Nickelodeon Super Toons, Nicktoons Christmas, Nicktoons Halloween and Nickstravaganza! 2.

Nickelodeon and Amazon.com teamed up to release Rocket Power and other Nick shows on manufacture-on-demand DVD-R discs available exclusively through Amazon.com's CreateSpace arm. The Rocket Power manufacture-on-demand DVD-R discs have since been discontinued.

Rocket Power premiered on Nickelodeon on August 16, 1999 and its final episode (a television movie called "The Big Day") aired on July 30, 2004. Reruns were then aired on the channel until October 7, 2011.
