It wasn't even a bad episode to begin with, sure it wasn't the most interesting episode of RS that revolved around a relative of a character (see: Don). That doesn't mean it was awful like everyone makes it out to be. I don't think the episode Quips was terrible at all. I just think the comedic factor Quips was trying to provide was a little overdone. While some of the jokes he made were pretty funny, others were very dull and irritating. The episode as a whole was decent, I just didn't overly care for how many puns Quips kept making. This doesn't mean that I didn't enjoy Reginald's character, though, or Pops's Van Halen reference. In terms of creativity, it was a very good episode. However, it probably would have been even better if Quips would have dialed his comedic routine back a little. While Quips isn't my favorite episode, it isn't my least favorite, either. Fair enough, but even if some think Quips' jokes should've been toned down (in terms of annoyance), I think it was the writers' goal to try and make him as obnoxious as possible so that even Rigby or Pops couldn't tolerate him. Unfortunately for some, that part of him might be here to stay.
