Regular Show

Just not seeing it. I think I get what you're trying to say, but from what I've seen of both of them, I just can't help but think this great depth of people going on about in comparison to Margaret is great exaggeration.

Like, opinions and all, but I don't think that description works unless you mean in the most literal way possible.

Edit: I understand thinking of CJ as a more entertaining character (I'd probably agree on that point) but nothing about her in particularly strikes me as more "real". And saying she's not as defined by relationship drama as Margaret just comes off as a joke.

Are these episode premises on wikipedia actually confirmed?

Also, I really need to catch up with this show.

I highly doubt they're accurate. It even says that a crossover with Adventure Time is airing, and last I checked both shows are not, and will never, have a cross over.

Yeah, the only episodes that are real are Chili Cook Off and Doughnut Factory Holiday. I doubt the others are real, they sound very fan-fictiony.

As far as I know, season 7 is still a hit or miss season. This past week did had my new favorite episode "hello China." However, I think the other Cartoon Network shows (except Teen Titans Go and Sonic Boom) are better than RS nowadays since they're still fresh on ideas. I'm the only one that think this show is slowly becoming a FranchiseZombie, but I can't stop ignoring it.

Even if the seasons were getting worse that wouldn't make it a Franchise Zombie.

But anyway, I'm confused as to when these new episodes are even supposed to be coming out.

Also, Rigby is a really good boyfriend. It's frankly very surprising.

He's definitely matured. First season, he was just the ignorant sidekick, but now, he's seemed to be a more believable fleshed-out character whereas Mordecai is just recently going back to what the show is all about.

So, when 2016 Valentine's day hits, what are the chances of them airing a special that brings up CJ?

I do wish they'd have him being able to be friends with CJ. He's in that place with Margaret, and though it should take longer, it'd be a nice development if he could be there with her too.

But I don't want him back together with either of them.

Yeah, that would be a great way to work things out.

Also, I never got why Rigby didn't like Eileen at first. That episode where she first appeared and he tortured Mordecai with all those solids always got to me because I couldn't actually see what was supposed to be so horrible about being around her.

Seriously, he called going on one double date with her ruining his life.

I think he just found her to be weird and got annoyed by her attempts to get him to notice her.

She did seem a little try-hard.

I think Early Installment Weirdness was the cause of Rigby's different view of Eileen in season 2. Since season 3, he been more friendly to her.

Yeah, there's a 3 part series of vids on youtube that shows the progression of their relationship (unfortunately it ends on "Real Date"). In fact:

When you see all of the moments together, you can really see how they got closer.

Just saw Benson's Pig. Does the pig show up in future episodes?

And The Eileen Plan was also good. Rigby and Eileen's relationship is easily the most interesting one in the show, not that there's much competition (or much I can think of). Why did Eileen run deeper into the cave after scolding Rigby, anyways?

Character Development. Mordecai has already gone through his character arc, that's why he's been out of focus mostly.

I seriously that this is some dreadful hiatus.

No airing date, but we do have a clip for Chili Cook Off:

That episode better turn out really fucking weird or I'm going to start losing faith in this show.

That was at a point in the series where Rigby was at his most immature and laziest, so I'm not to surprised he was making a big deal out of such a simple favor.

Eh... I really thought that shit behavior from Rigby was due to him being a very poorly written character until the writers finally made some legit fucking effort to make him somewhat actually likable (with mixed results if the derailment of Mordecai at certain points in the series is any indication.).

I got that it was Eileen being a weirdo. Really, that "pretend we're turtles burying eggs in the sand" thing?

I seriously doubt Rigby pre-character development was poor writing.....

Unlikeable charcters tend to be seen as poor writing more often than necessary.

People really don't like not being able to like a character, especially if that character is a main character.

The harsh reality is that if your main character(s) are not likable or developed enough to begin with, why should we care if they get better or have good days? It's next to impossible to care what happens to these people. There are some cases where this has been done decently - but not in any Western animation has this been done so as of late.

I don't know too many people that just hate Rigby in the first place. Its not like he was just the worse character in the show by viewer standards.

Because showing them getting better or having good days realistically is a sign of good writing, maybe?

Characters can and often are made to be unlikable by design. Making the change, should it happen realistically, is just part of the story.
