Regular Show

Regular Show (known as Regular Show in Space during its eighth season) is an American animated sitcom created by J. G. Quintel for Cartoon Network. It ran from September 6, 2010, to January 16, 2017, having 8 seasons and 261 episodes. The series stars Mordecai (a bluejay), Rigby (a raccoon), their co-workers: Skips (a yeti), Pops (a lollipop-shaped man), Muscle Man, Hi-Five Ghost, and their boss Benson (a gumball machine); all of whom work at a local park as groundskeepers. Mordecai and Rigby spend their days slacking-off and trying to avoid work to entertain themselves by any means which leads to surrealistic, extreme, and supernatural misconduct.
Many of Regular Show's characters were loosely based on those developed for Quintel's student films at California Institute of the Arts: The Naïve Man from Lolliland and 2 in the AM PM. The former was one of the winners of the 2005 Nicktoons Film Festival and received international attention after being broadcast on Nicktoons Network. Quintel pitched Regular Show for Cartoon Network's Cartoonstitute project, in which the network allowed young artists to create pilots with no notes, which would possibly be optioned as shows. The series premiered on September 6, 2010, on Cartoon Network.
As of May 2013, the program had been watched by approximately 2 to 2.5 million viewers each week. The series has received acclaim from critics and has developed a following of all ages, although it has garnered controversy for its dark humor, sexual innuendos, violence and mature themes. Regular Show has been nominated for several awards, including seven Annie Awards, six Primetime Emmy Awards—one of which it won for the episode "Eggscellent" (season 3, episode 18)—and three British Academy Children's Awards. A film based on the series, titled Regular Show: The Movie, premiered in 2015.
After eight seasons and 261 episodes, the series concluded on January 16, 2017, with the one-hour finale "A Regular Epic Final Battle".
