From bcToonist2837 :

There are two versions of this short: the shorter pilot Joe Murray and his small staff of animators created independently and the one with added scenes to make an 11-minute episode. One point to note is Rocko was originally yellow in the pilot. The episode seen on television has the original animation from the pilot and Rocko was recolored. The original pilot can be seen on the Rocko's Modern Life DVD set as an extra.
