I still prefer Adventure Time, but It's more of a personal choice towards continuity.

I forgot to copy Adventure Time yesterday. :saddowns:

But yesterday's Regular Show was fantastic, and Pops is my favorite damned side character in a long time.

I went to a costume party as Mordecai last night. Only one person recognized it (a stoner so I think it may solidify the stoner correlation to this show lmao). My girlfriend went as Rigby. I made us Fist Pump shirts too. Unfortunately the Fist Pump shirts were getting confused for a reference to Jersey Shore; it happened at least 4 times.

The finger rings were more solid earlier in the evening.

You can't say that and then not show us what you guys looked like, man.

Also it seems like a long shot but if anyone here has a Samsung Galaxy S (or any Android phone with a display of 480*800) I made a Regular Show Hamboning wallpaper for it.

At first I expected the Pops from the present to fade away like Back to the Future. If these episode were 20 minutes I bet they would've done that.

How do these games go? I've been curious how these things work.

We have a few different games. About 6-9 of us get together in a conference room typically. In one, we just write out possible episode titles, throw 'em into a hat and draw them out one by one. We're given 2 minutes per title to write a premise and then another title is drawn out. In another we fold a sheet of paper into quadrants and draw a picture on the top quadrant. We pass it to the person on our right after 2 mins and he/she writes the first act of the story based on the picture. Then we pass it again, and again until all 3 acts are done.

A lot of the premises are pretty raunchy and could never make it to an episode. I kind of remember one where Muscle Man gets arrested for selling crack, or there was the one where Rigby and Muscle Man get married. It's funny how what we're talking about at lunch colors the games, like one time during Shark Week we all ended up writing shark related premises. It's a lot of fun!

Is this from Second Life, or what? I've gotta know about this.

Also, do you see Regular Show becoming a half-hour show in the future at the moment?

Yeah, I think? Some fan posted it.

There might be some 1/2 hour specials like how Flapjack got one... but nothing official.

Shark Week-themed episodes would be amazing. Shark Week should pretty much just be a TV-wide thing, not just for Discovery.

Ah, I see. It'd be awesome to see if you guys could do something with a half hour that you can't in the 11 minutes you have now, so I'll be looking forward to this.

It pays well, but it's not stable. The work is finite and limited to a certain number of storyboards per season-- once you're done with that number you're put on "hiatus" and get weeks, even months off before the higher ups decide to order more episodes. It's definitely a "young dude job," the production schedule is totally breakneck and I've pulled a few all nighters since I started 8 months ago. Of course there's lots of recent college grads from Calarts, SVA, Pratt, etc that are working here and totally used to that sort of thing.

I'm a total anomaly in this industry in that I was pretty much a "cold call." I was working in IT for years, hating life but I always drew and made my own minicomics on the side to amuse me and my friends. I would do cons and sell my stuff there. JG Quintel bought one of my comics at SDCC last year and he liked it enough to send me a storyboard test, which I turned in and thought I did terribly on. But I guess I didn't, and needless to say I am very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very lucky to be here.

Hourly I earn about as much as I did in IT but I don't work all year. I saved enough in my tenure as IT dude to have something cushy to fall back on if I hit hard times. It was worth the gamble! It's pretty much a fan's dream, the day I came down for my interview they did the record for "The Power" and introduced me as "JG's friend from up north" to Mark Hamill. I was pretty much hooked after that!

How much did IT pay you? I know Cartoon Network Studios is a union shop and I myself was at Film Roman for a while, which is also a union shop. I was making production board artist scale wages rounded up to the nearest hundred, and in terms of salary that was a great gig.

For the first 6 months I was an apprentice so I took a massive pay cut to work at CN, but now rates are really good :)

Everybody watch tonight's episode "Don"! Especially if you have a brother.
