As Long as It Sounds Foreign: "Tito" isn't a Hawaiian name.
It's easy to assume they're possibly Australian or of Maori descent.
#ROCKET POWER CHARACTERS AND NAMES TV#
Meanwhile in the TV movie, The McGilles are both Ambiguously Brown. They're half Hawaiian/Polynesian and half white. They're not white, but their dad seems to be.(although he is very tanned, which makes sense). Ambiguously Brown: Otto and Reggie Rocket. Accidental Athlete: Sam Dullard's goalie skills, which are discovered when he casually swats away a hockey puck coming at him from behind. Also included were the Rockets' next-door neighbors, the Stimpletons Madtown's owner, cool Jamaican dude Conroy and various other kids the same age as the main characters. Other than the main four, other regular characters included Otto and Reggie's dad, Ray, who owned a restaurant on the Ocean Shores pier his partner Tito, a native Hawaiian who spoke with the requisite accent and was fond of spouting nonsensical proverbs, and Twister's older brother, Lars, who was often seen picking on the main characters. Over the course of the series, everything from relatively tame sports such as roller hockey to extreme and obscure sports like zorb balling were featured in the show. Even if it wasn't the core of the plot, each episode would generally begin with the kids surfing, or hanging out at the local skate park, Madtown. The show's hook was that the four main characters were all into extreme sports, and nearly every episode featured some such activity at the center of the episode's events. The other two included Otto's friend Maurice "Twister" Rodriguez, and new kid Sam "Squid" Dullard. The title refers to brother and sister duo Otto and Reggie Rocket, ostensibly the more "main" of the core cast of four. It focused on the (mis)adventures of a foursome of kids living in Ocean Shores, CA. Rocket Power was a popular Nickelodeon cartoon that ran from 1999 to 2004, produced by the same people who made Rugrats and As Told by Ginger.
