I think there should be a Pops spin-off that shows what his life was like when he lived in Lolliland and how his relationship with his father has changed over the years. I feel as though this would be a great opportunity to provide Mr. Maellard with an interesting backstory. A part of me has always wanted to believe that he was a jolly, good-natured guy before his wife died and gave Pops the childhood of his dreams, hence why Pops acts so innocent and childish in the present. While Pops's adventures probably wouldn't be near as exciting as Mordecai and Rigby's are, we would at least be able to see the world through a younger character's eyes and witness the relationship between a father and son. Plus, I have always imagined a place called Lolliland to be very whimsical in nature, which could make for some interesting visuals and characters. What would be really interesting, however, is if there were an episode where Mordecai and Rigby travel around the world in a time machine and somehow end up meeting a very young Pops. Maybe they could even have a playdate or something, and the episode could end with Pops saying: "I hope we meet again soon." Hey, I know it's cheesy, but can you really blame me? Who couldn't like the idea of Mordecai and Rigby playing with toddler Pops? XD

On a side note, I am aware that Skips vs. Technology depicted Pops as being a small child. However, RS has had a habit of ignoring continuity before, so I don't think it would be an issue. Something else to take into consideration is that people from Lolliland may age differently than the average character, meaning the young Pops shown in the afore mentioned episode could have been over a decade old. In the wonderful world of Regular Show, pretty much anything can happen.
