Regular Show

I'm just going to act like those space carts are unsuitable for going back to Earth. Makes a bit of sense too, as Earths atmosphere and gravity makes shit burn up A LOT.

Watched lost and found, and it was classic Regular show antics.

A classic commercial reference...

That banquet of bugs from the mantis people was gross. >.>

So this Roxy gal considers Benson an 'organic'.

A walking, talking gumball machine, an Organic. Okay.

I knew that Pam would come into play someway. Also, who else is freaking the fuck out about that Pops-looking evil overlord from "Dream warrior"?

Finally caught the season 7 finale. I don't recall Mordecai's position with college even being mentioned before in the show, so Rigby's statement about that was a little random.

I have to wonder what the scientists did in the dome. Pam seemed a bit surprised about Benson and the park being sent to space, or she could be surprised that he was sent early. Or she could be faking the surprise. What would these guys even need to be sent to space for anyways? Maybe season 8 will say.

I'm surprised CN is airing new episodes every weekday. It seems they want to be rid of the show even though it's one of their more successful recent efforts.

How's Regular Show: The Movie, btw? I'm actually not that interested in watching since the premise sounds a little too obvious considering the actual show's premise. I suppose that's why I was falling behind with the episodes. Having "regular" stuff become "irregular" gets a bit old after a long enough run.

It was a pretty good film. Admittedly the plot does sound like a Cliché Storm seeing how it plays off the Big Damn Movie trope straight, but I think it works much in the same way as the first Christmas special when they play off the Saving Christmas trope. It is also good for expanding on the characters of Mordecai and Rigby and their friendship as the movie's plot hinges on past actions the two characters have done (which actually ties in nicely with season 7's overall story with Rigby's journey in graduating from high school and Mordecai's self-awareness on their position in life). I recommend you check it out.

Anyway, I can't believe no one mention the elephant in the room where the recent episode basically have a space rock who wants to bone (though she isn't a lesbian). Doesn't help that she sounds like Sadie . . . who weirdly enough also sound like Pam even though they are completely different voice actress.

The Movie is amazing.

So is anyone else actually watching these new episodes because "Anti-Pops is getting more threatening every episode he's in.

I will as long as the plots interest me. Most of the plots the past two week had been cliched or lacking imo. Honestly I'm a little disappointed since season 8 show some promising improvement, but eventually started having the same problems that season 7 had: trying so hard to mimic the old episodes but in a less interesting way (week 1 of season 8 did had a couple of episodes like those but there were filler so I let them slide; I'm kinda ready for them to advance the plot. This Anti-Pops thing looks interesting, though).

Of course I have been watching these; this is my favorite current Cartoon Network show and it is in the last season. And I have to say tonight's episode was a huge WHAM.

The previous episodes pretty much play off the theme that it is the show's usual formula but IN SPACE, with no grand scale story tying to it (with the exception of the Nightmare episodes which not only Call Back Pop's powers but also is the first reveal of Anti Pops). But this episode pretty much shifts that tone as not only are the Park Crew are aware of this evil Pops but also led to the destruction of the Space Tree and the deaths of the Commander, Recap Bot, Tooth Pick Sally and Sure Shot. Especially Sure Shot who gain a Dying Moment of Awesome taking out the gunman operating the tractor beam allowing the main characters to escape.

Yea, we don't know that yet.

Know what yet?

If they died. This still is a CN show after all.

Yeah, but it is a good chance they did die in that battle given how Regular Show have many moments where characters are killed off on screen and the fact that other Cartoon Nerwork shows have portrayed on screen death.

Would you say that this final season is an example of Genre Shift? Especially with the introduction of Anti-Pops as their first (and only) recurring villain? It seems like the show has taken on more of a comedic space adventure feel. There are even some actual action scenes that arent just played for laughs.

Well, I'm loving it, so far.

Anybody saw the Halloween special? Did it take place before Space escape?

The Halloween specials are all non-canon. It was a pretty good special IMO, the alien roomate one was the best.

Those costumes they wore.

Now I can't get the image of a Zero suit Eileen out of my head!

That was awesome.

I want to say that Mitch's Zardoz costume (freaking Zardoz) is one of the most obscure pop culture references they've made, but IDK for sure.

Skips wearing a fake extra pectoral was pretty brilliant.

Mr. Maelard, YOU ARE NOT THE FATHER!

Regarding "The Ice Tape" (11-03-2016):

Things seem to be looking up for the Park Crew - but they're still sure as fuck not ready to face Nega-Pops yet (that's for sure!). That backstory did a good job in explaining some stuff better than I expected, too.

I definitely need some fan-art of the two Danger-haired girls who died in this episode, even if they were throwaway characters. I might just ask for some commissions on them.
