Review: Regular Show “Terror Tales of the Park VI”
The twist ending is jaw-dropping.
Spoilers Below
The park kids are getting sucked into a black hole, so they decided to tell us some scary stories for Halloween:
“Fear Planet“- The guys are low on gas, so they stop by a planet that makes their greatest fears a reality. From sharks to frisbee douches, the full gamut of fear is pulled on display and as a result, the park employees don’t make it off the planet.
“King Sized Candy Bars“- The park crew encounters a house swarming with vampires promising king-sized candy bars. Unfortunately, the guys were screwed out of the king-size variety of candy bars and instead turned into vampires.
“Alien Roommate“- An alien named “Shannon” moves in to help pay the rent, but is more of a nuisance than what she’s worth so the guys have to kick her out…in force.
Well, the ship gets sucked into a black hole, and all of the park employees become spaghetti and meatballs eaten by Neil deGrasse Tyson.
Our Take
An Alien parody with elements of Predator? That’s already an automatic yes and yes from me. But, to have the smartest man on the planet eat our favorite Regular Show dudes as spaghetti is hilarious. Overall an excellent send-off for the franchise within a franchise, and I couldn’t be happier. Fuckin’ A Regular Show…fuckin’ A.
There's got to be some kind of twist that's going to happen with this. I don't know if they're setting up an April Fool's joke now or what's going on, but it seems too strange that they'd suddenly reverse on doing a fourth and fifth season after the show was already renewed and they were even just talking about working on those seasons like a couple months ago or something. Or maybe the two episodes yet to release will secretly somehow each be like a "season" in themselves?
