Yes, the storyboarders don't know about it until they're told or it's announced. But think, episodes are developed in '''order.. '''And they air in order too. If they know what the last episode that aired was, then they're automatically going to know what the next one to air is. Completely discrediting a storyboarder just because it's not what you want to hear and other storyboarders have made mistakes. Although, you should really give an example of that. It's a common lie for someone to say "Well ___ have been wrong before sooo..." (Not trying to sound harsh. - But I got a little ticked when reading that.)

Okay, now onto my opinion on the ships. Heh. Rigleen - I don't really see this ship as something that can/should actually become canon. There does seem to be a one-sided love going on. The only interest in Eileen that breaches the 'friend zone' is when he said she looked hot without her glasses on, and even that's a stretch. You can find anyone hot. One thing that doesn't really support this ship also is that, Rigby doesn't show any interest in any girl. (Also, does Rigby seem like an ideal partner for Eileen? It seems more like Margaret is a female just THERE for Mordecai, and Eileen to Rigby. Very forced and un-creative.) He's either too childish or just not into that thing to be bothered by girls. He'd much rather hang out with his bro. Morby actually seems like a lot more canon than Rigleen and definitely Mordaret (Way to forced. Margaret didn't show any interest until the end. She actually showed uninterest). I could go into a lot more reasons to why Morby would make more sense (Rigby's jealousy, their already-unseperable-bond, hints throughout the series, storyboarders actually seeming to ship those two..) however, due to it being a kids show, I don't see it as a likely possibility of becoming canon in this age, sadly.

ThomasxEileen - Thomas is too under-developed for me to comment on this right now, and they share much too little interaction. They could definitely be a bigger possibility than Rigleen though.. Let me elaborate, Thomas is such a vague character that has has hardly any screen time yet, that we could learn that he's really smart, Eileen and him share many things in common and actually enjoy doing things together. We could also find out that they're just too different. Anything can happen. Where as Rigleen just seems too far gone.. I'm sorry to break your bubble, but:

Rigby IS interested in girls. Maybe not in dating them just yet (he is immature and child-like, still), but he IS interested in them.

Here are some of the quotes that prove that:

- "They're just  gonna sit around talking  about their feelings ...fully clothed."

- "*Rigby looking trough the screen, telling Mordecai who to invite to the party*  Oooh, deffinatly invite HER !"

And the fact that he said Eileen is hot without her glasses on (even if he did just mean 'hot') that is probably still clear proof that he likes girls.

I get that you're a Morby fan, and I also get it's easy to start bealiving the ship's real while there are so many Morby fans about. (Not that there's anything wrong with being a Morby fan.)

But lets take a look at the real picture for a second:

Rigby is terrirorial about Mordecat, that's true.

But Mordecai is his best friend, and since Rigby is immature about love, he probably has a plan of them staying together forever having BRO time.

Let's also look back at the flashbacks when Rigby was a kid and was pretty much neglected by his peers (even his best friend).

And then later on comes Margaret, who Mordecai sadly seemed to find more important then his best friend at times.

Can't you piece it together?

She was an obvious treat. Although it wasn't all spoken out loud.

But she was a treat to his friendship with Mordecai, nothing else.

Besides, what Mordecai and Rigby have is already more then casual romance. They're best friends, they're bros.

Why ruin that?

Now with Rigleen: Mordecai and Rigby already are best friends, as I pointed out. And Eileen doesn't seem like she's gonna start not liking Rigby any time soon, even though the desire is now more hidden. (Yet, still visable.)

And like it or not, Mordecai IS gonna find someone sooner or later.

It would only be fair if Rigby does too.

And they would actually make a great match, I think. Just look at how joyful Eileen while messing around with him. Just look how she lets her child-spirit flow.

And Eileen could also push Rigby to do better. And would always be there for him, give him support, a boost etc.

It could work greatly, even if there were to be some trouble, which is expected at first with the whole A, B personality type.

ThomasxEileen: Dude...That would be so boring and meaningless I can't even comment on that...

And I have 0 idea on how THAT could be more possible then Rigleen.

Also, again on your Morby thoughts: When William Salyers  (the voice of Rigby) was asked about Morby, he said he doesn't mind it, but confirmed those were NOT J.G's intentions.

Morby isn't even close to cannon in the actul show. It doesn't even exist.
