So I just now watched that 2 AM PM short that was something of a precurser to Regular Show. Is JG Quintel really tall? it seems that all the characters voiced by him are the tall guy.

I know I shouldn't expect much from fanartists, but a lot of them sure like to turn the characters into (anime) humans.

Tonight was the first time I saw fanfiction and shipping of Regular Show online.

I think my only exposure to the show from now on will be this thread and the program itself.

In awesome news both Regular Show and Adventure Time have been officially renewed for an additional season (Adventure Time for its 3rd, Regular Show for its 2nd). The not-so-good news is that MAD somehow also got renewed.

Looks like season two will be 20 episodes that are 30 minutes if I read this tweet correctly :neckbeard:

Technically this season is 13 episodes that are 24 minutes. I would not be surprised if they keep the 15 minute chunk format for both shows.

Nope, 20 half hours means 40 11 min episodes. Unless we have some 1/2 hour specials or something. So much stuff gets cut for time in the 11 min format, so I sympathize :(

See Sean Szeles' post about "Mordecai and the Rigbys" for examples of this. There's an AMAZING flashback to Benson's band days in the original board. http://seanszeles.blogspot.com/2010/11/regular-show-mordecai-rigbys.html

I like the 12 minute format. I'm not sure drawing each episode out to 24+ would benefit. I like how it's a little slice of crazy every monday.

I think if it was longer the characters could develop more. Wouldn't it be great if people had a relationship with the characters on the level of Futurama or the Simpsons? Wishful thinking I guess!

I don't know, I know you guys have more insight into the characters so you would probably come up with fantastic 24 minute episodes, but I kind of feel like you guys do a great job of giving me enough information in 11 minutes to really enjoy the characters in their own way.

It's a really tightly packed 11 minutes. Drawing it out to 24 or so almost makes me think you'd need to move to an A/B type plot and that would kind of slow the whole thing down.

That is a horrible idea, no offense.

This show works because it's so short that it simply doesn't have time to get tedious or wear out its welcome as far as the crazy goes. Also the characters don't need to develop.

For people saying this show doesn't need character development, it felt like Rigby sure got a good amount in this one.

Assuming it sticks, of course.

Yeah, I felt this was a good episode for Rigby. The end really cinched it. I felt the last episode was similarly valuable for Mordecai. I think Regular Show is entirely capable of being as developed and enriching as a longer-format show, and I'm sure if they went for a double-sized episode, it would be amazing. Venture Bros did an hour-long episode and everyone loved it; I'm sure Regular Show could spend 24 minutes to their fullest.

That Benson flashback really made the instruments suddenly appearing make waaaaay more sense.

My favorite part about the video store guy's costume was that the door to the building he was wearing was situated directly over his crotch.
