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.

It's not just the eyes but the ears. You have one character screaming until his voice is hoarse, and another whose high-pitched whine makes my ears bleed.

And the terrible graphics and sound makes me uncomfortably clammy with sweat, causes my TV to emit a disturbing baking smell as if the circruitry itself is revolting against the programming it is showing, and causes a rusty taste to stick in my mouth.

Problem Solverz is offensive to all five senses.

I disagree. The one about Hot Dogs, for instance, is pretty mediocre.

And Grilled Cheese, and Peeps are all pretty meh.

The Grilled Cheese episode is actually one of my favorites.

Your milage may vary, I guess.

I'm gonna go ahead and guess the whole 420 thing was a reverse censorship deal. As in, when it went to the editors the show had the 9:25 thing on the VCR, and then they slipped on the 4:20 number on top of it afterwards. That's why the hand went under: it was post-production.

Yeah at times I think Margaret isn't even in the friend zone with Mordecai, as such as the Hooters Waitress zone (but with coffee). She's just friendly with everyone, it's part of the job.

Next Monday!

EDIT: I saw that date on AICN, but Cartoon Network's schedule doesn't list a new episode for next Monday. I guess it'll be a little longer yet.

Also, according to the CN schedule, next week's Regular Show is entitled "A Bunch of Baby Ducks".

The little preview commercial looks pretty funny, as usual. The ducks mock the duo with their own "OOOOOOOH" thing

You know, all and all I think Benson is mostly getting used to the expensive antics Mordecai and Rigby end up getting in at the end of each episode?

A destroyed fountain, overturned truck and some random murdered guy? Nothing to really raise a fuss over at this point.

and that's that Muscle Man's "MY MOOOOOM" just... didn't have any of the oomph it used to.

Directly it really should translate out to "Mi madre!" instead of the weaker "Mi mama", but apparently saying "your mother" like that in spanish is actually sort of a curse word so they changed it.

That's just the way Cartoon Network does DVD releases, for some reason. I think the only series that didn't do this was Samurai Jack, and that's probably only because there was some continuity to it.

There's continuity to Regular Show!

They, like, meet Space David Bowie, and he tries to steal Skips' life force, and Mordecai and Rigby stop him and hes mad and tries to get revenge by joining the badguy bowling team but then he resolves his differences and defends the guys in Cool Court. And then it blows up and he dies (???), plot arc over.

CONTINUITY

I'm just wondering what battle was being fought in the park in 1783? After Yorktown (1781), I didn't think there was any action in the U.S.. And I don't recall any one-armed green techomancers about, though I could be wrong.

Going to guess that he wasn't either one-armed or green or a technomancer in 1783

Upon re-watching Weekend at Benson's, I have devised the following very simple Regular Show drinking game.

1. Take a drink whenever the guys go "Oooah!"
2. Chug whenever there is, in essence, an acid trip sequence.

That's it.

The best part is I don't see any way that Regular Show could ever actually jump the shark.

I could, however, easily envision an episode where they literally jump over a shark, much like the concept's namesake

Skips isn't that much of a dick.

He can get a little vindictive sure but, you know, as long as you don't try to dick him over first he'll be your best zen guide pal.

This may all be a moot point as (next episode preview spoiler) the commercial showed Mordecai looking all ragged complaining that his "heart was dead" implying that they might be ending the Mordecai/Margaret relationship story.

I kinda hope that's a fakeout, there's lots of potential there.

Someone posted in the Adventure Time thread asking for episodes to introduce people to the show. I, myself, like Regular Show more than Adventure Time, and most of my friends already watch AT. What would you guys recommend for starter episodes of Regular Show? Stick Hockey and This Is My Jam immediately come to mind for me. Any others?

Make 'em watch The Power and Death Punchies back-to-back. If they aren't interested in the show after watching those two, it isn't for them.

Yeah, they really need to make a Muscle Man spin-off or something, so his episodes stop getting in the way of the other Regular Show stuff. It's not that I mind something different once in a while, but his episodes are so different, it feels like it belongs in another show altogether.

It can take the Annoying Orange timeslot.

I'm pretty sure literally no one watches that anyway.

No, just give it time and those will die. Now Johnny Test, on the other hand, will probably somehow still be in production after a nuclear apocalypse.

Kids love badly animated formulaic cartoons with cashed-in punchlines and generic characters, who knew

Insert rant about how the cartoons back in my day were so much better here, but then again I can remember a couple pretty crappy "classics".

You could argue that Mordecai has been progressing his relationship. You know. In tiny ways. Like being asked to water Margaret's plants. Have you been asked to water a girl's plants?? I didn't think so!

Besides, we all know they're gonna end up together eventually. No need to, heh, rush things, right?

So that episode really owned. And I guess Thomas is a new reoccurring character, so we'll see how that works out. I'm guessing they're gonna have him be the "one sane guy", maybe. Let's see how long that lasts.
