Mordecai
and Rigby just two regular guys just living together, trying to have
fun and not get fired. Unfortunately for Mordecai his best friend is
the world's greatest trouble maker, tell him not to do something he
still does it anyway. Luckily for Rigby, Mordecai values his
friendship over his own personal sanity. Each day between their
friends, their boss, and Mordecai's girlfriend CJ they have various
adventures in allegedly key episodes of The Regular Show: Mordecai
Pack (2014).
This
animation is like a toned down version of Beavis and Butt-head
crossed with The Simpsons; while Mordecai (relatively) has the
voice of reason, Rigby is more like Bart Simpson, playing pranks,
lazy, and constantly getting them into trouble. Together, they are
like a tornado of chaos where ever they go.
The
Regular Show looks like a kids animation, but the jokes are
geared more for adults. Each episode is more like a 5-10 minute
short. Most plot makes fun of racist, prejudice and sexist ideas.
Ironically, the main characters sorta are more like anti-heroes, they
are not role models but the are not completely fools either. In the
end, the characters (sorta) learn from their mistakes and help one
another. Anything can happen from fighting an evil organization of
blondes, to making friends with cavemen, or just trying to not to get
fired (which seems to be a constant theme being reused) because of
something stupid they did.
The
animation affects my rating so the anamorphically enhanced 1.78 X 1
image just does not do it for me and the lossy Dolby Digital 5.1 mix
is not much better. There are no extras.
