I'm sure we all know people who are basically only kept sane by the consistency and fulfillment their jobs bring them so it was, in my opinion, a rather realistic reaction to the situation at hand. More realistic than a talking gumball machine has any right to be. Edit: Benson's VA is great, I like how you can hear his voice cracking a good three lines before he actually breaks down.

Plus as it's been mentioned a few times before he's really trying to help his employees become better workers as opposed to just not giving a poo poo. Also you are totally right the voice acting in the show is typically pretty top notch. I wanna watch a video of Benson's VA when he's doing one of those freak outs.

When his employees gently caress up, he's the one who has to face the music. It's sad.

I thought that episode was quite a bummer. I kinda hope that they make Benson a happier guy, although it seems like he's just becoming more angry over time.

The end "fight" in the hologram episode was possibly better than the ending of Trash Boat.

Inspector_71 posted:The end "fight" in the hologram episode was possibly better than the ending of Trash Boat. My favorite 'fight' was the 'Bloodsport' kumite homage with Benson and the tabletop hockey game. His nemesis? An homage to Tong Po from Kickboxer. And in case anyone else is amused with movie trivia... Tong Po's actor- Michel Qissi- is not Thai but Moroccan, and was ALSO in Bloodsport (as the tall Brazilian kickboxer), and Lionheart (as 'Moustafa').

The table hockey game episode was a bit odd after watching an earlier episode the other day. The one where Benson hangs out with Mordecai and Rigby for a bit, there's a quick scene where they're in the garage playing the table hockey game and he's so happy he scored on them.

Oh my god how have I not watched this show before? Going from "We can get a car just from standing around?" to "Shut your face! We need to use your time machine!" seamlessly in ten minutes? This is wonderful.

You can also tell he can be a pretty cool guy because he's nice to Skips and Pops. We don't tend to see him at his best because he's not generally working with his best employees.

It's easier to count the episodes where they do not summon a demon, tear the fabric of reality, or piss off someone who turns out to be able to level a city in their effort to slack off at work or obtain a small luxury item.

Still wondering what horrible thing Rigby had Mordecai do.

Weekend at Benson's didn't involve anything supernatural, other than the crazy trip off of  spicy foods. The pro wrestling episode involved guys with multiple limbs and reptile features, but that's no more wield than the main characters, and they didn't have hulk powers like Starla or Cloudy Jane. Same with the unicorns.

What are you talking about he clearly made reservations at that extra fancy, extra available place. I don't think I'll ever get tired of cockney, biker jerk death. EDIT: Didn't realize the baby was voiced by Worf... Eggplant Squire fucked around with this message at 19:09 on May 29, 2012 |

That ending was really sweet, especially after getting used to the immovable status quo in most shows. Also, was the Lady Gaga/Madonna character actually called Ladonna?

Muscle Mentor might be the least weird/supernatural episode of the entire series. And it even has Rigby riding Muscle Man like a bull. Also Benson's gotta wear those aviators all the time.

Holy poo poo thank you for reminding me. I was kicking myself for not asking him that when I saw J.G. Quintel in person at Comic Con last year. This year, I won't forget. The mystery will be revealed!

Cardboard Box posted:I just saw that episode. It was strangely... sweet. Never thought I'd say that about a Muscleman episode. I definitely preferred it to Muscleman tormenting Rigby all day while Benson watched; that one was kind of unpleasant. Made Benson seem less "angry but usually somewhat reasonable and a cool guy" and more "dickbag", and somehow made Muscleman even more of an rear end than he usually is. Conversely, as mentioned this last episode was pretty dang good. Also, the phrase "hat ashes" amuses me a lot more than it should.

I thought it was kinda funny that High-Five Ghost couldn't deal with death/loss despite being a ghost himself. I guess it brings back painful memories

http://teefury.com/ Before tonight's episode, in which the park gets a new cart (the Guten Tag), check out this Teefury shirt. I prefer the other Regular Show shirt they sold, but this will probably interest someone.

In a Normal Show, the cart would rebel against its creators at the end of the episode to prevent its inevitable death. In Regular Show, the cart goes out in acceptance as the broest of all bros in a blaze of glory. I love this show.
