Season Three: The Best Burger in the World (The way Benson handled the situation was uncalled for, in my opinion)

Season Four: Bald Spot (Although I found parts of it funny, it was more disturbing than anything)

Season Five: Wall Buddy (Rigby's attitude was really distasteful)

Sorry if it seems like I'm bashing Rigby, but he can really get on my nerves sometimes! XD Please don't get offended if he's your favorite character; he's one of my favorites as well. Seeing as Mordecai's my all-time favorite character, it seems logical that I won't like Rigby's influence at times.

P.S. CartoonObsessedFan1997, I would indeed like to know why you dislike the episode Don. It's not so much the fact that I favor the episode; I'm just curious as to why you don't overly care for it.

I don't hate the episode but the reason why is because I didn't like Rigby treated Don in the whole episode, but I did enjoy the end however.

Also, I don't like it when people bash on Rigby, but I'm fine with your opinion.

'''P.S. '''I don't know why fans hate Wall Buddy so much, it's actually one of my favorite episodes. I didn't really like how Rigby treated Don, either, so I can definitely agree with you on that. The reason I don't really care for Wall Buddy is because the plot felt weak to me. If Rigby would have just put the trash into the garbage bags and not under Mordecai's bed, the episode as a whole would have been so much better. It was his refusal to clean up after himself that irritated me. I appreciate when Mordecai is willing to help his best friend out, but in this situation, he was more or less thrown under the bus. I apologize if it seems like I'm being rude; I'm fine with your opinion, as well. Thank you for taking the time to actually respond to my post. Can I barge in with my 'Wall Buddy' opinion?

I didn't mind how Rigby acted here. (Or in Don, if we're already on topic.)

Rigby can basically do whatever he wants. My love is unconditional, and he'll always be my favorite little coon.   (Spoken like a true mother, lol.

- The pushover one.)

But the reason I'm not really bringing the episode up too much, is because I just plainly didn't enjoy the plot as much as in my absolute favorite eps.

It's not the fact that Rigby was jerk not wanting to clean up his room. There just wasn't as much to it, that's all. The episode wasn't as memorable as another may have been. Now that you mention it, the plot did seem kind of dull, didn't it? I mean, don't get me wrong; there were some very humorous moments, especially the scene between Benson and Skips. (I love that ringtone XD) The episode just seemed to be missing its special spark, I guess. Honestly, I'm not sure if I find Rigby as much of a jerk in this episode as I find him a nuisance. His behavior actually reminded me a lot of his behavior in season two, and that was an unexpected blast to the past for me. Seeing as Rigby has been maturing throughout the seasons, (J.G. Quintel said this himself) the way he acted here was basically an animated slap in the face. I'm used to Rigby being... well, Rigby, but it seemed a little out of character for a season five episode. I don't know, maybe I'm not seeing what other RS fans have been saying about this episode. As of right now, though, I don't plan on finding a hidden meaning that'll change my mind anytime soon. (But hey, for what it's worth, Rigby will always be my favorite raccoon, too. :)) Yeah, that's probably it.

But I actually enjoyed how it was a 'blast from the past'. XD Rigby messing up, but then fixing it makes for the greatest plot. Meat Your Maker would be the best example, but ....this didn't resemble it really.

Many people say he was the biggest ass in this (Wall Buddy) episode, but I really can't see it. They say he was manipulating Mordecai, and I guess that's the reason why.

I'm not too sure Rigby actually has these skills..nor would Mordecai fall for it (Unless we'll now say Rigby is the much smarter one? Because that would be the only way that could work.)

I personaly think he was just being honest, even while the look from the shoulder may have been a little suspicious.

Plus, that wouldn't the worst thing he did anyways.

The epsiode isn't my top fav, but just the fact that Rigby is the main character brings it up the scale.

So...Yeah, that's pretty much it. Y'know, I'm all for blasts from the past, (Especially in Regular Show) but I have to agree that this episode didn't do it for me. I think this episode really had potential, (Specifically because of the way it started out) but then it somehow failed to meet so many fans' expectations. Maybe if the episode would have been based on a battle for Chimichangas, it would have been a lot more interesting. Centering the plot on Rigby's uncleanliness probably wasn't the smartest approach in RS history. As I mentioned before, I'm not sure if I find Rigby as much of a jerk here as I do a nuisance. While he wasn't exactly manipulating Mordecai, he was basically dumping all of his problems on the both of them. (Literally) It was his mess, not Mordecai's. He should have just cleaned it up, or even asked Mordecai for help instead of pointing fingers. I don't think Mordecai was falling for Rigby's form of 'manipulation', either. He pretty much said from the start of the episode that the mess wasn't his problem. Heck, even as the Wall Buddy device began to desecrate the house, he still wasn't willing to take on Rigby's issues as his own. Even if my best friend asked me to take the blame for something like that, I probably wouldn't agree to it, either. I don't think Rigby is as manipulative as he is stubborn, honestly. I realize that this wasn't the worst thing Rigby's done, but it still made the episode seem out of place, if you will. It was like Rigby wanted them to be super best bros again all of a sudden, even though he knows that Mordecai is starting to mature and wants to do his own thing every now and then. Perhaps if the plot would have been a little different, I would have enjoyed the season two feel. In this case, however, the plot was just kind of....cut and paste, or something. It wasn't really creative at all, which is weird for RS. (And that's saying something XD) I really like Rigby's character, but this episode was a few painful steps backward, in my opinion. I'd actually take half the blame. Maybe. It's your best friend. Your bro. You/They should always be there for them/you, and I agree with pretty much everything Rigby said in this episode.

But you know...when I say share the blame, I don't mean help clean up the mess...much...just say sorry to Benson, then I'd still be there, cheering for them to clean up. Giving a nice motivational boost! (lol)

Seriously though...I umm....I think Mordecai was being a good friend, still. And he did mature a lot, but is still giving him a chance, and isn't ditching him. (Of course if that would happen it would mean the end of the show, but you know.)

I got this big feeling in the episode that Rigby is really behind him as far as maturity goes. Not sure how I felt about that, but yeah, not the reason the episode wasn't as enjoyable. Again; I don't think it's bad. Had good moments, was just a bit boring somehow (Not really 'boring' just can't find the right word.). I agree that it failed to meet its full potential. But I don't have my own ideas on how it would be played off better.

We have to keep in mind they probably had to add some things into it that make other stuff follow in future eps.

Episodes stopped being stand-alone a long time ago.
