Review: Regular Show “Sleep Cycle”
Spoilers Below
Mordecai and Rigby get caught doing long ass TV marathons over the course of the weekend which messes with their work schedules. It gets so bad that they decide to ask Skips for help. Skips gets Gary and everyone travels to space to meet up with these two dudes whom give Rigby and Mordecai the chance to win back their sleep schedules. If Mordecai and Rigby are able to capture the son on a high-speed Tron-like track, everything should go back to normal.
The race ensues, and anyone who is a fan of Mario Kart would love it because there are traps and all sorts of shit on the track. Fortunately, Mordecai and Rigby are able to work together and complete the race and get back to their work schedules, but only after Skips makes damn sure of it.
Our Take
Now THAT was an episode of Regular Show. The park elements that exhibit workplace comedy combined with the supernatural elements that are just so beyond it’s too awesome to comprehend. As mentioned, fans of Tron or Mario Kart (if you’ve ever played Kinetica, an old school PS2 game, it’s probably a lot closer to that) should be thrilled with the episode because it features a bunch of those inspirations.
One of the best episodes of season seven.
"There are also other characters that come and go (also owned by the Warner Bros. Discovery conglomerate media company)."
Huh. Is that just referring to other characters from the show itself, or is this implying that the new season is going to have cameos from other WBD IPs
