RegularShow is an American animated sitcom created by J. G. Quintel that aired on Cartoon Network from September 6, 2010, to January 16, 2017. The series revolves around the daily lives of two 23-year-old friends, Mordecai (a blue jay), and Rigby (a raccoon). They work as groundskeepers at a park, and spend their days trying to slack off and entertain themselves by any means. This is much to the chagrin of their boss Benson (a gumball machine) and their coworker Skips (a yeti), but to the delight of park manager Pops (a man with a lollipop-shaped head). Their other coworkers, Muscle Man (an overweight green man) and Hi-Five Ghost (a ghost with a hand extending from the top of his head) serve as their rivals.

Quintel initially worked as a writer and staff director for the Cartoon Network series Camp Lazlo and The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack before he was offered to produce a short for the network's showcase project The Cartoonstitute.[1][2] Quintel developed the Regular Show pilot for the project, utilizing characters from his California Institute of the Arts student films The Nave Man from Lolliland (2005) and 2 in the AM PM (2006).[3] While The Cartoonstitute was ultimately scrapped, Cartoon Network executives approved the production of Regular Show, starting with its first season.[4] Its first two seasons were rating successes, with Nielsen Media Research ranking the series at number one in its time period amongst its primary demographic.[5] As of May 2013, the program averages approximately 2 to 2.5 million viewers each week.


Regular Show received positive reviews from critics and has been noted for its appeal towards different age groups,[6][7] simplistic animation style,[2] and frequent references to 1980s popular culture.[8] It has attained four Primetime Emmy Award nominations, including a win in the Short-format Animation category for the 2012 third season episode "Eggscellent".[9][10] The series has also been nominated for two Annie Awards,[11][12] as well as three BAFTA Children's Awards.[13][14][15] The eighth and final season was announced by Cartoon Network on July 7, 2015.[16] A film adaptation based on the series, titled Regular Show: The Movie, premiered on November 25, 2015. After eight seasons and 244 episodes, Regular Show concluded on January 16, 2017, with the 33-minute finale "A Regular Epic Final Battle".

When present Mordecai and Rigby learn about this, they try to right the wrongs and save their friendship and the universe, but things are not as easy for them with the Timenado they accidentally created in high school destroying the fabric of space and time, and their old revenge-seeking volleyball coach Mr. Ross on their tails.

The other day, I was watching Grey's Anatomy and remarked that if a TV show goes on long enough, there's no reason to just not send it into outer space. It'll keep things fresh, and if nothing else, it'll give everything a nice new starry background for dramatic speeches. When I woke up today, though... well, I've got good news and bad news.


The good news is that this is exactly what Cartoon Network's Regular Show is doing when it returns for its eighth season on September 26. In "One Space at a Time," the Park and its groundskeeping staff have been blasted off from Earth, and they're going to be staying there for the rest of the season. The bad news, though, is that this is all building to the end of Regular Show. Season Eight will culminate in the series finale.


Regular Show tell the story of Moredecai and Rigby, a pair of slackers who just happen to be a bluejay and a raccoon, who work as groundskeepers at a park alongside an immortal yeti, a controlling, work-obsessed gumball machine, a ghost that gives high fives and sounds suspiciously like Mordecai, a rich, lollipop-shaped boss, and... well, to be honest, I've never quite been sure what Muscle Man is.


Unlike most series, going to space isn't a huge tone shift for Regular Show - they've been out there before, dealing with all kinds of cosmic threats to the park, and even once sent a bunch of baby ducks to the moon with a magic keyboard.


The good news is that this Regular Show is heading into outer space when it returns to Cartoon Network for its eighth season on September 26. In \"One Space at a Time,\" the Park and its groundskeeping staff have been blasted off from Earth, and they're going to be staying there for the rest of the season. The bad news, though, is that this is all building to the end of Regular Show. Season Eight will culminate in the series finale.\nRead More
