Just curious. Regular Show is really great IMO, except most endings of each episodes, But does anyone have an episode that you guys felt was stupid, trippy or bad. Here's mine:

The Best Burger in the World: Although Benson was a complete giant ass in this episode, I arguably have to say that he did technically had every right to eat their burgers right in front of their faces, but Honestly, I felt the crew made him more of a jerk than ever.

Do Me A Solid: Terrible episode, Rigby was at his worst, ruining Mordecai's date for no reason, and made him do that final "solid" in front of everyone and recording it, and man, the ending was the worst RS ending I have seen (currently). Glad he got made fun of in Trash Boat though, just another thing that proves how stupid he is.

The Longest Weekend: I know this ep just recently came out but wow, just wow,. Out of all the Muscle Man episodes we got, this was one of the worst. the plot was really stupid, geez, I've never seen a promise so broken.and the fact that this was another Muscle Man themed episode got me really tired of Muscle Man -_-

The Unicorns Have Got to Go: Only Bad episode for me in the first season, especially since they kept saying "Bros" every second, Gosh, that was freaking annoying and how Rigby was betraying Mordecai, but that sure backfired and Rigby got karma.

Bald Spot: This was disgusting and dull, it's bad enough we see Muscle Mans boobs most of the time but ugh. This and The Longest Weekend are the worst Muscle Man episodes I've seen.

all Regular Show Bad episodes for me, does anyone have one or two??

Honestly, I've found the majority of season 4 to be the worst of the worst. There are some episodes where I think to myself "What the hell are these guys thinking?"

I'd say "The Longest Weekend", "Ace Balthazar Lives", and "Quips" are my 3 least favorite (and all are very recent).

Longest Weekend-Haven't the crew learned how terrible Starla is?

Ace Balthazar Lives-This episode was so disorganized, and the ending was extremely anti-climatic and weird.

Quips-Quips has to be the worst Regular Show character ever created. There have been many annoying characters in the past, but Quips has to be the most annoying I've ever seen. Terrible episode and terrible character.
 
"Quips" because it was boring and tiring with the bad jokes. "Muscle Woman", purely because of... *that* scene.
 
Exit 9B: While it IS the show's introduction to Thomas - the execution of such is pretty bad
The plot overall lacked an explanation for what's going on, The climax is not much noteworthy and the special while it introduces Thomas it barely gives him camera time and when he does he's merely a slave to the special's villain
 
I have to say that many of the episodes that heavily focus on Muscle Man are hard to watch. Besides many of his episodes, I hated "Do Me a Solid" -- I'd have to agree that Rigby was really obnoxious, and I really disliked the ending. "Quips" was surprisingly disappointing -- did not care for the character, either. "Do or Diaper" was also another episode that made me cringe -- hated the ending, too.
 
"Quips" is the first to come to mind. Even less interesting episodes of Regular Show tend to be good entertainment but that one wasn't even that.
 
Unicorns Have to Go
 
Quips definitely comes to mind. It felt like I wasted time watching that episode.
 
I at least laughed through most of Quips. Just because of how dumb I thought it was. Quips was still annoying as poop, but I actually have a good laugh at annoying things. Don't bother me as much.

Unicorns Have Got to Go was a bad one. Was cringing throughout the episode because of how obnoxious the Unicorns were. I find a lot of the muscle man episodes to be pointless, but I don't hate them for that.

Do or Diaper: Well... I actually liked this episode... but that's a bit of an accomplishment, considering how much I never like it when cartoon shows make "diaper jokes". Anyone remember that scene in Cow and Chicken's "Sumo Cow" and that -entire- episode of Chowder? *Shudders*
 
Most of Season 4 has shown me Regular Show at its weakest - just not as good/memorable as what came before it, and definitely a sign that this show may need to end soon, IMHO. And by that (giving it an ending), I mean, give itself an actual ending and bow out gracefully...!

Either that, or stop focusing on the show's least likable character, Muslce Man and his girlfriend - I get it, they love each other! Move on to characters we actually want to see get into what this show is all about, please!

I think I know what you mean by that. It's like every show starts off fantastic and then starts to decline its precious quality as more and more episodes come. Regular Show is still great but I hope this show (and Adventure Time) doesn't end up really boring and stupid like SpongeBob,. I also think the crew should stop making MM episodes and focus on some of the others, particulary Pops, I don't think we had a Pops episode in while. And get rid of Thomas too...IMO, he's just a dog that sits there.
 
I guess I'm gonna have to be the 1% here and say that I really enjoy season 4 of Regular Show so far. Season 1 was still obviously the best, but season 4 seems like they're starting to at least ATTEMPT to bring back some more risque humor again, which is really what made the show for me. I'm also really digging the fact that they've been using more copyrighted songs as of late than they normally do.

Anyways, worst episode for me, probably was Quips. God, what a horrid episode. Even the "bizarre climax" of the episode was extremely lame, with Skips and Quips just being trapped inside of a cube.

Normally Muscle Man episodes tend to be the least interesting for me. It seems like the writers really want to flesh out his character but it really isn't doing anything except hurting him. He really doesn't serve as a character that should be in the spotlight for an episode, he's definitely more of a supporting character.

In Season 3 the Mordecai and Margaret episodes were by far the worst for me. It really made me dislike the two storyboard artists that would always get those episodes (Sean Szeles and Kat Morris) which was a shame because when they work on episodes that didn't involve the two going on a date, they turned out fantastically. Just Set Up The Chairs, Brain Eraser, This Is My Jam, Guys Night, just to name a few. However, I really enjoyed TGI Tuesday and Do or Diaper this season. Granted, TGI Tuesday wasn't much of a heavy Mordecai/Margaret interacting episode, it was those two that drove the main plot.

So yeah, long story short, the show will never relive it's glory days, which is sad. Because it was a nearly flawless show in its prime. Right now it's just a pretty good, but like I said, I really think season 4 is getting the show back to the basics. Season 3 as a whole was just godawful for me, so maybe that's why I have such a high opinion of the current season.

You have a point. Season 3 is pretty much tame in terms of risqué humor and language, which I felt that they were trying to focus more on the plot, and less with the humor (not saying its supposed to be more on comedy, but at least put a bunch for entertainment) The current season made some sexual jokes (The Magazine and the hot rod" in Guys Night, and "Ballroom joke" in TGI Tuesday) and MMs disgusting man boobs in Bald Spot. In terms of violence, there's not really much (except Exit 9B, Terror Tales of the Park II, 150 Piece Kit, Christmas Special and Firework Run) so I hope the show doesn't lack on that.

Agreed on all counts. And that goes double for Adventure Time (needing to go out with a bang as well), seeing as that show is showing those unfortunate signs of decline similar to that of Regular Show, if not more.

I have to say that even with the positive resolve at the end, Quips (as of recent eps. I've paid attention to) and almost any episode involving Muscle Man os of late (knowing that he and Muscle Woman have enough development already) is Regular Show off its A-game. Royally off, sadly.

At Comic-Con last year J.G. even said to expect more Muscleman eps in Season 4. Why? I don't understand why he dedicates so many episodes to a supporting character. Also, does Starla have to be a part of every single episode centered around Muscleman? What a waste... For every episode she has been a part of, we couldn't have had one that involved Hi-Five Ghost? Really? And why hasn't Thomas had his own episode yet? You don't make a new character to do nothing with and the closest thing we got to a Thomas episode had Muscleman as the center of attention... What a ripoff.

I agree with everything you just said, except to get rid of Thomas. I thought his introduction was one of the best things that happened this season. They've already introduced the audience to the character, so they should really do more with him and not let him just sit there.

We've definitely had a lot of Muscle Man episodes this season, already. I don't know if I can handle many more of them in the near future. You'd think we'd already have an HFG episode, but that hasn't happened yet. Yeah, after Thomas's introduction and second episode, he's done almost nothing but make sporadic appearances. When was the last time he's had dialogue?
 
As much as I love RS I have to admit its best days are behind it. Seasons 1 and 2 just had some kind of magic in the writing. That being said, it's still one of the best shows on TV and one of the few I make a point to watch every week. Season 4 has been a major improvement over 3 and has shown that there's still some steam left in it. I just don't know how they're going to manage it through season 5. Do we really need another 40 episode season after this one? They should make a 12 episode season 5 like the first one to close out the show with honor, but they won't because money. Anyway, my least favorite episodes are:

Fortune Cookie: It's not that it wasn't funny, it's that the "bizarre climax" was so out of nowhere and with no buildup that it just lost me.

Camping Can be Cool: I found no real humor in it. Just a by the numbers, forgettable relationship episode

Eggscellent: Who the heck is stupid enough to eat a food that you know you're allergic to? This one just made me dislike Rigby even more.

Prankless: Just a dumb, infantile concept whose only saving grace was having Red Foreman guest star

Longest Weekend: For the reasons already stated

Just about any Muscle Man episode from Season 3: He can't carry an episode. He works the best when he's around for one or two jokes

They should do something with Thomas at least, like in the beginning of Season4 he was introduced in Exit 9B and in Starter Pack he was given somewhat, if not, little character development. and since then, he's often appeared in various episodes without dialogue or such. What's the point if you're gonna have a new character introduced if your gonna do little with him (I might be over exaggerating but what if this goes on in Season 5 as well) Id say the Same for Hi-Five Ghost but we know how he is sorta. Since he's best friends with Muscle Man he will do anything or everything with them, that is only when he's actually with Muscle Man, and when he's not with MM, he's chill with Mordo and Riggs and everyone else only cuz MMs not there most of times though. But there should also be an episode based on him.

Any episode that involves Margeret (besides Death Bear) is a total piss off for me.
In addition, Rigby is my second least favorite character, doesn't he ever think before he does something totally stupid.

The introduction of Thomas seems pointless to me, too. They haven't done anything with him and, no offense to Thomas fans, he doesn't have much of a personality. He's just sort of...there. I do wonder if the reason we aren't seeing more of him is that the writers realized that he isn't necessary and are second guessing their idea to introduce him.

As to the worst episode, I'm not a fan of "Do Me A Solid" and "Fancy Restaurant".

In Season 3 the Mordecai and Margaret episodes were by far the worst for me.

And I know people don't like Muscle Man, but I'll take a Muscle Man episode over a Margaret focused one any day.

Okay, so I found out that Sailor Moon had meet and greets at Universal Studios back in May. It would have been so cool if we had that at the turn of the century. I have gotten hugs from a Sailor Moon and a Sailor Mars at a local con back in the 2010s and spent under $100 doing it, so I don't know if this is worth the splurge but I can see that these affluent geeky people are enjoying their Sailor Moon hugs.
The characters from Netflix's Mating Season apparently were born from the same deeps as the Warner Bros cartoon characters
