List of episodes

The third season of Emmy winning American animated television series Regular Show originally aired on Cartoon Network in the United States. Many of the characters are 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. Quintel pitched Regular Show for Cartoon Network's Cartoonstitute project, in which the network allowed young artists to create pilots with no notes to possibly be optioned as a show. After being green-lit, Quintel recruited several indie comic book artists to compose the staff of the show, as their style matched close to what he desired for the series. Regular Show was picked up by Cartoon Network, who decided to create a twelve-episode first season.

Regular Show was renewed for a third season on November 16, 2010.[3] The first episode of Regular Show's third season is "Stick Hockey", ending with the season finale "Bad Kiss". The season was storyboarded and written by Sean Szeles, Kat Morris, Benton Connor, Calvin Wong, J.G. Quintel, Ben Adams, Andres Salaff, John Infantino, Toby Jones, Hilary Florido, Mike Roth, and Madeline Queripel while being produced by Cartoon Network Studios. The show is rated TV-PG for suggestive humor/language and occasionally TV-PG-V for mild to moderate violence, including comic slapstick, scenes of peril, and non-fatal use of firearms, explosives, and weapons. Despite not airing on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim line-up, it is considered more of a traditional teen and adult's animated comedy than a children's cartoon.

Development

Concept

Two 23-year-old friends,[4] a blue jay named Mordecai and a raccoon named Rigby, are employed as groundskeepers at a park and spend their days trying to slack off and entertain themselves by any means. This is much to the chagrin of their boss Benson and their coworker, Skips, but to the delight of Pops. Their other coworkers, Muscle Man (an overweight green man) and High Five Ghost (a ghost with a hand extending from the top of his head), serve as rivals to Mordecai and Rigby.[5] Mordecai usually goes to a coffee shop because he has a crush on Margaret. The show usually revolves around Mordecai and Rigby's attempts to avoid work and enjoy themselves. However, they often, at times, have to pay for their irresponsible actions, as they always get into more trouble than they thought. This typically results in Mordecai and Rigby going through bizarre and surrealistic misadventures, many of which nearly kill them or others around them.

Production

Many of the characters are loosely based on those developed for Quintel's student films at California Institute of the Arts: The Naive Man From Lolliland and 2 in the AM PM.[6] Quintel pitched Regular Show for Cartoon Network's Cartoonstitute project, in which the network allowed young artists to create pilots with no notes to possibly be optioned as a show. After being Season 3, Quintel recruited several indie comic book artists to compose the staff of the show, as their style matched close to what he desired for the series. The season was storyboarded and written by Sean Szeles, Kat Morris, Benton Connor, Calvin Wong, J.G. Quintel, Ben Adams, Andres Salaff, John Infantino, Toby Jones, Hilary Florido, Mike Roth, and Madeline Queripel, while being produced by Cartoon Network Studios. The show is rated TV-PG and occasionally TV-PG-V. Despite not airing on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim line-up, it is considered more of a traditional adult's animated comedy than a children's cartoon.

The third season of Regular Show was produced over November 2010 – July 2011 with heavy use of double entendres and mild language Quintel stated that, although the network wanted to step up from the more child-oriented fare, there were some restrictions that came along with this switch.
