History Trivia / RegularShow

*** William Salyers' favorite character is Thomas (Death's son).

** On the Thanksgiving episode, Creator/JenniferHale and Alastair Duncan voiced Mordecai's mom and dad. On the first episode that focused on them ("Maxin' and Relaxin'"), Hale and Duncan were replaced by Katey Sagal and Ed Begley, Jr.

** That was pretty bad, but in mid-2015, the show was entirely removed from the schedule unless there were new episodes (shown during a very irregular bomb week). All of it's previous slots were taken up by Teen Titans Go, to no one's surprise.
** It was confirmed the series would end in 2017. In the meantime, though, it regained it's 7:30 timeslot in fall 2015, just in time to rejoice with Adventure Time reruns finally coming back in September, alongside Baby Looney Tunes, Courage the Cowardly Dog, and new episodes of Ninjago, along with much less Teen Titans Go reruns, it seemed to have finally been averted.

* MissingEpisode: The first season hasn't been seen much on Cartoon Network since 2015.

* AdoredByTheNetwork: In the early half of TheNewTens (from 2010 until either mid or late 2014 or early 2015), ''Regular Show'', ''WesternAnimation/AdventureTime'' and ''WesternAnimation/JohnnyTest'' were all Creator/CartoonNetwork's flagship series, with daily reruns, frequent marathons and lots of promotions...at least until ''The Amazing World of Gumball'' and ''Teen Titans Go!'' flooded the network.

** However, reruns did briefly reappear for Halloween in 2017 with a few of the "Terror Tales of the Park" specials, marking the first time it aired in almost a year since its finale. Regular reruns also continued well into November, but by early December they disappeared. The "Terror Tales of the Park" specials were rerun again for the 2018 and 2019 Halloween seasons, indicating that their airing will be an annual tradition.

* ScrewedByTheNetwork: The kind that got gradually worse as time went on. Similar to Adventure Time, this is most likely due to the saturation of the schedule with Teen Titans Go! reruns, its age (the show premiered in 2010 which is pretty old for industry standards), or MoralGuardians (''Regular Show'' gets away with as much [[Radar/RegularShow crap past the radar]] in just a handful of episodes as most Cartoon Network shows get away with in a season). Starting in February 2015, Regular Show was banished to a 7:45 to 8:00 PM timeslot, the only time it was shown.

** It was confirmed the series would end in 2017 (unknown whether this was CN's doing or the creators choosing to end the series). In the meantime, though, it regained it's 7:30 timeslot in fall 2015, just in time to rejoice with Adventure Time reruns finally coming back in September, alongside Baby Looney Tunes, Courage the Cowardly Dog, and new episodes of Ninjago, along with much less Teen Titans Go reruns, it seemed to have finally been averted.

** In the UK, the infamous line "Now, how in the H are we gonna fix this S?" was changed to "Now, how in the H are we going to fix this hole?" (which still [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar gets crap past the radar]] by keeping the TWordEuphemism for "hell") well before Cartoon Network America decided to edit it.

* PopCultureUrbanLegends: It's commonly believed that ''Regular Show'' was originally going to be an Creator/AdultSwim series that only ended up on Cartoon Network due to scheduling issues, as a way to explain the more adult content of the show (in particular, the earlier episodes). In reality, the series was always under development for the daytime network; the content was a result of Cartoon Network's experimentation with the TV-PG rating at the time.

** In Russia, the episode "The Real Thomas" has been banned because its premise of Thomas being a Russian spy was considered offensive as well as TooSoon, given Russia's current invasion of the Ukraine and the beginning of a second UsefulNotes/ColdWar between the United States and Russia. In countries such as the UK, the Philippines, and Australia, the episode is allowed to air, but a lot of the Russian references have been cut or altered to rename the country Druznia alongside the usual edits for violence and suggestive themes.

** ''Regular Show'' was originally going to be an Creator/AdultSwim show, but Adult Swim at the time had no room in its schedule for a new original program, which is why the show feels out of place on daytime Cartoon Network (even by Cartoon Network's already selective standards of what's allowed and what isn't).

** But ultimately, the final season got it the worst. Regular Show's last 31 episodes were burned off weekly with minimal advertising, typically right after a Teen Titans Go marathon meant to promote it. But aside from that, everything was smooth sailing.... until the finale aired in January 2017. The final 4 episodes were aired on Martin Luther King Jr day (a Monday), rather than the usual Thursday-Friday premiere date at the time. Right after the finale aired, reruns of the series, let alone any mention of the series at all, comepletey vanished without a trace.

* VoicesInOneRoom: Mark Hamill confirmed in [[https://www.cinemablend.com/television/1615220/what-mark-hamill-will-miss-about-regular-show-the-most]] this interview that the cast would typically record their dialogue together.

** Wanna see the uncut version of ''The Power'' (you know, the one where Rigby actually says, "Now, how in the H are we gonna fix this S")? Only place you'll get to is on the Slack Pack DVD, as for the uncut versions of ''Free Cake'' and ''Meat Your Maker'' unless you copied it the first time you're out of luck unless you find it through [[DigitalPiracyIsEvil illegal means]].
** As soon as the final episode of the series aired, the entire series was completely dropped from Cartoon Network's scheduling. While it makes sense that a series that finishes up would be put to rest, it makes just as much sense to at least show reruns for a little while. The series finale itself aired once and ONLY once. You'll have to find it online to see it.

*** It should be noted though that the reruns of the show are now airing on Boomerang as of the week of May 28, 2018.

** In the UK, the infamous line "How in the H are we gonna fix this S?" was changed to "How in the heck are we gonna fix this hole?" (except for Netflix UK, where the line is "Now, how in the H are we going to fix this hole?" which still [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar gets crap past the radar]] by keeping the TWordEuphemism for "hell") well before Cartoon Network America decided to edit it.

* ScrewedByTheNetwork: In UGLY ways, and it's screwing gradually got worse AND WORSE as it went on. Similar to Adventure Time, this is most likely due to the saturation of the schedule with Teen Titans Go! reruns (either for financial reasons, or so the network can artificially lower the series' ratings to justify shitcanning it), its age (the series premiered in 2010, and is pretty old by industry standards), or MoralGuardians (the show is NOTORIOUS for it's mild profanity, heavy violent content, and mild sexual innuendo) are most likely to blame. Starting in February 2015, Regular Show was banished to a 7:45 to 8:00 PM timeslot, the only time it was shown.
** That was pretty bad, but in mid-2015, the show was ENTIRELY removed from the schedule unless there were new episodes (shown during a very irregular bomb week). All of it's previous slots were taken up by Teen Titans Go, to no one's surprise.

** ....But, with the start of 2016, it proved it was too good to be true. New episodes, shorts and reruns were briefly aired from 6:00 to 8:00 PM in a block dubbed ''Regular Time Adventure Show''. Soon after, the block (as well as Adventure Time) vanished without a trace, and Regular Show only got to air a single 15-minute episode right before Adult Swim started on weekdays, and at this point, CN didn't even see it fit to ADVERTISE Regular Show.
** It got WORSE. In Mid-2016, after Season 7 concluded in June 2016, CN seemingly didn't see the point in treating it with dignity. For a very long while, Regular Show was only aired at 6:30 in the morning on weekdays, right after Uncle Grandpa (which, if you're wondering, also only aired at 6:00 AM), before reruns shored up entirely in mid-late 2016. The final Regular Show marathon ever was shown a few weeks before Regular Show: In Space (Season 8) premiered in September 2016. When Season 8 aired, reruns of the other 7 seasons all vanished ''for good''.
** But ultimately, the final season was treated worst of all. Regular Show's last 31 episodes were burned off weekly with minimal (though surprisingly, existent) advertising, typically right after a Teen Titans Go marathon meant to promote it (promote being very ill-defined in this case). But aside from that, everything was smooth sailing.... until the finale aired in January 2017 (which is a very, very rare feat for a long running series at the current time in the network), it received one final, massive insult to send it off. The final 4 episodes were aired on Martin Luther King Jr day (a Monday), rather than the usual Thursday-Friday premiere date at the time. To make matters worse, there wasn't even a marathon of the series or the 8th season as a tribute to one of CN's most beloved and longest running series (one of the shows that put it back on the map). Instead, they were aired right after a Teen Titans Go marathon, the movies ''Shrek'' and ''Rio'', and the TTG Island Adventure marathon. Right after the finale aired, reruns of the series, let alone any mention of the series at all, comepletey vanished without a trace.

* AdoredByTheNetwork: In the early half of TheNewTens, both ''Regular Show'' and ''WesternAnimation/AdventureTime'' were Creator/CartoonNetwork's flagship series, with daily reruns, frequent marathons and lots of promotions.
* BannedInChina: A lot of episodes have either been edited to pieces or banned outright in Cartoon Network stations airing in the United Kingdom, Australia, the Philippines, and Latin America.

** After the season five finale, a lot of the violence and sexually suggestive humor had to be toned down (despite that the show is still rated TV-PG and the fact that the "Mordecai/CJ/Margaret" love triangle and the "Brilliant Century Duck Crisis Special" had everything that Cartoon Network executives wanted toned down), so if you feel that the later episodes of ''Regular Show'' feel too LighterAndSofter in comparison to the earlier episodes, then you're not alone.
