Review: Regular Show ‘New Bro on Campus’

Spoilers Below

There was a time when Muscle Man was the most popular dude on a school campus. He had tons of friends, had his own parking space, and was rather skinny. Then High-Five Ghost showed up and ruined EVERYTHING! Turns out, Fives showed up with better jokes, a better car, and eventually replaced Muscle Man as the most popular dude in school. That’s when Muscle Man decided to declare war against High Fives and take part in a nacho-eating contest, but because High Five doesn’t have a stomach, he wins by default. Muscle Man isn’t giving up, so he challenges High Five to a drag race which leads to a crash that almost ends Muscle Man for good had it not been for Fives saving his life. It’s here that the guys become best friends and continue to be so to this day….no matter WHAT happens.

As nice as it was to get a little bit of back story on Muscle Man and High Five Ghost, this is like the 500th episode of Regular Show that features a bunch of races as the climax to the episode. Also, this week’s episode of Regular Show just wasn’t weird enough to be a Muscle Man episode, but extended amounts of High Fives is usually lots of fun, and this one was no different. Unfortunately, just don’t expect anything all that original.
