Regular Show Review

Regular Show is a show currently airing on Cartoon Network that premiered September 6, 2010. Its a comedy about a blue jay and a raccoon who live and work in a park in a so far unnamed city. The show's creator, J.G. Quintel, based some of the characters off of 2 short films he made a few years before, titled "The Naive Man from Lolliland" and "2 in the AM PM". One was about a lollipop headed man who tries to pay for a meal with lollipops, and the other is about 2 guys taking acid while working the night shift at a convenience store. The thing I enjoy most about the show is it's surreal art style and stories. Basically, the show is really fuckin' trippy. I also enjoy the fact that it has small hints of adult humor in it, but doesn't take it over the top. I love the art and animation of the show because it has such a wide variety of strange characters that live fairly normal lives. I'd still watch it if they did take it over the top, but its still on Cartoon Network, so that's not happening any time soon. The one problem I have with the show is that every episode follows the same plot outline. Mordecai and Rigby (the main characters) get in to some kind of ordinary everyday situation that becomes a ridiculous and surreal situation often involving life threatening danger and the supernatural. They then find some sort of odd solution and things are back to normal again. It would be nice if the structure of the episodes varied a bit more, but it is an entertaining show nonetheless. Overall, the show is dank and you should go watch it.
