"High-Rise Nightmare" is the 67th episode of Season 4 of Oggy and the Cockroaches.

Plot

Bob has built a modern skyscraper and moves in the penthouse. Bob now thinks he can do whatever he wants, and he throws his garbage out the window and Oggy's garden quickly becomes a garbage dump! Oggy decides to declare war against Bob...

Not-So High Qualities

1. The main problem with this episode as it is a torture for Oggy and Bob is really unlikable. It is also a rehash of "Life's a Beach."
2. The blue alien is really unlikable as he beats up Oggy all because he tried to destroy Bob's apartment.
3. Bob is even rude to Oggy's lawn as well as he dumped his garbage on it. That could get Bob arrested.
4. It ended Nickelodeon's airing of the show on a mediocre note.
5. The cockroaches get really little screentime as they only appear in the beginning and end.
6. Bob even tried to destroy Oggy's house when Oggy increased the height of it and Bob uses an anchor to make it fall.
7. Although deserving, the people rioting Bob when relaxing can be a bit mean-spirited.

High Qualities

1. Oggy, Joey, Marky, and Dee-Dee are the only likable characters.
2. The beginning is okay, until when Oggy wakes up and sees Bob's apartment.
3. Some funny moments, such as when Oggy uses a kite to burn Bob's apartment.
4. Although short-lived, Bob's apartment is cool.
5. The concept on Bob creating an apartment is good, but was poorly executed.
6. Despite its flaws, it is still better than the original episode "Life's a Beach" as well as "Oggy Splits Hairs."
7. Great ending: Bob gets karma for his bad behavior when the cockroaches annoy everyone and blows up the apartment.

Trivia

• This was the last episode to premiere on Nickelodeon. Afterwards, it was pulled from rotation due to the controversy surrounding (Un)Happy Camper!.
• The control room has the same camera screens and buttons reused from Panic Room.
• This is the second time where Oggy, along with Joey, Marky, and Dee Dee, scares and dissatisfies everyone else in order to save the day. This happened before in Life's a Beach/Oggy's Beach Club,
  • Also, Zig & Sharko had an episode called Troublemakers, but this time, Sharko scares people in the beach when the two people notice about Zig, who disguised as a fake shark fin, after humiliating.
