'''Beverly "Bev" Bighead''' is a [[fictional character]] on the television show [[Rocko's Modern Life]] and the [[comic]] of the same name. |
|||
==Development== |
|||
[[Joe Murray (animator)|Joe Murray]], the creator of ''Rocko's Modern Life'', said that he based the Bigheads on a group of neighbors who lived next door to Murray during his childhood. Murray described the neighbors as "grumpy and pissed about everything."<ref name="CharMuseum"/> The general concept involving characters with large heads originated from a comic, written by Murray, named "Rizzo the Art Director."<ref>"[http://joemurraystudio.com/blog/?p=1184 July 28, 2009]." Joe Murray Studio. Retrieved on July 28, 2009.</ref> |

|||
Bev is [[Ed Bighead]]'s wife. [[Nickelodeon South East Asia]]'s website describes her as "unique" and that "There's nobody else like her."<ref name="SEAsiaDesc">"[http://web.archive.org/web/20041125005428/www.nicksplat.com/Tvshows/Characters/Nicktoons/Rockos_modern_life/bev_bighead.html Bev Bighead]," ''[[Nickelodeon Southeast Asia]]''</ref> |
|||
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 friendly, and a closet [[wikt:party animal|party animal]]<ref name="Aus2">"[http://www.nickelodeon.com.au/toonroom/rocko/meetmain2.php Characters]" of ''Rocko's Modern Life'' Page 2, ''[[Nickelodeon Australia]]''</ref> (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.<ref name="SEAsiaDesc"/> 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. |
|||
Bev is also an incredibly compassionate toad, having taken Earl the vicious dog in when she forces him into a submissive posture for digging out their yard, she falls in love with him and likewise, which is strange for Earl. Earl and Ed then vie against one another for Bev's attention and approval, which Ed ultimately loses due to his underhandedness. Unfortunately Earl is gone in subsequent episodes and his adoption is for the most part retconned through the rest of the series. |
