I watch this show, although not consistently (mostly because I always forget that it's on), and I love it. It's just different from other CN shows. It definitely appeals to that 16-25 age range rather than the normal childrens' shows that they air. It's pretty edgy for Cartoon Network to air, I mean, they're using language like "pissed" and "screwed" and "crap" (and "how in the H are we gonna fix this S?"), which not every parent would want their children to hear.
It's just good ol' crude humor that appeals to me, a teenager.
Also, crazy stuff usually happens in the second act that leads me to believe the writers are high 50% of the time, which is fine with me. Have you ever seen Quintel's early animation, 2 in the AM PM? It's amazing.
edit: I was watching it on TV today, and Pops was dressed up like an ice cream cone. I think that Pops may be the one of the greatest characters on that show. He's just so...wacky.

Regular Show is not that innap. Crap, Sucks, and freaking are common in newer cartoon network shows like Total Drama and Adventure Time. And the word pissed was only used two times in the first season, I'd say the first season was the most innap, for example "Bensons gonna drop his balls" or "How in the H are we going to fix this S" but after the 1st season, the show got more tamer.

The half hour season four opener and the Halloween special were epic this year!!
The other two new episodes... not so much.

Hey, I just watched a few episodes of this show a while ago.
The first one involved Mordecai (the blue one) catching pops naked. It was interesting, and pretty entertaining, to say the least. I enjoyed it at a pretty basic level.
Now the one I saw a few days ago, involved Mordecai kissing the girl Margoret, and he had bad breath. So he wanted to use this time machine to go back and make Mordecai take a mint before the kiss. I loved this episode. I liked alot of things about it. The great continuity thing with Rigby interrupting him was pretty funny.
Now, are alot of the episodes like these 2? Because I might actually start watching them if they are.

I discovered this a couple of weeks ago and I absolutely love it. Someone described it as Adventure Time meets The Mighty Boosh and I think that's dead-on. Except, Pops' voice is eerily, EERILY similar to one I do for a character in my web cartoon ( www.youtube.com/watch?v=fpHhtPHlpto).

Strangely both of those episodes are pretty far apart in the course of the show's run. There are many episodes that, while not being similar to those, are far better (in my opinion). I'd go on YouTube and search for the following titles if you want to get into the show... "Weekend at Benson's" "Jinx" "Prank Callers" "'Ello Gov'nor" "Rage Against the TV" "This is My Jam" "Over the Top" "Skunked" "Karaoke Video" ... and I could go on, but I'd definitely watch those.

I saw Bald Spot a few hours ago, and thought that was actually pretty good. I saw this other episode called My Mom and it was pretty weak. It was #1 on some dudes best episode list. I was just like what?
But I'll definitely check out the episodes you guys suggested.

It actually seems good. Their Christmas special got nominated for an Emmy but it's overall okay. Kind of surprising for a show on Cartoon Network.

Eggscellent's a good one. I've never seen Night Owl and I don't like Bald Spot. Muscleman annoys me.

I'm not crazy about the show, but I don't hate it. I like Skips and Rigby.
