Q: Will you cover Close Enough?
A: Yes
Hey
First again
Hi
PEE PEE POO POO PANDA
Review Craig of the Creek.
Oof i was REALLY triggered about the lie.
Eileen was the realist girl in Regular Show.
best girl by a wide margin
Eileen was the best girl in the series
Eileen da 🐐
@@bestintheworld4346 indeed
Best person in the show.
This bird loves a cloud person more than his best friend smh
Hes a simp, hes a simp and he never was pimp, hes a simp
Love is love
@@Fipmotron not if they actually together
Ikr he’s more of a idiot than rigbey and that’s saying something. Also this is why i hate Mordecai he’s the only person that probably can’t face reality. heck rigbey is lazy but at least loyal in this episode and able to face facts mordo said he’s not useful when he’s literally covering for him help him with Margret and CJ but dude you’re a massive idiot mordo.
Fipmotron deltablazingx called it
Rigby developed the most in regular show. He went from being such a screw up and annoying to someone who is now as responsible or even more responsible and has more common sense than Mordecai.
Hes still not more responsible at the end. Half the episodes are still rigby taking things too far and mordecai trying to stop him
Yeah Mordecai is still more responsible than Rigby
That responsible thing is a lie. Rigby never stayed responsible for a big amount of time. He was probably responsible for 10 episodes out of the 200+. I love him but he is lazy as hell.
That last part is the biggest cap ever, not like the other “Mordicai Sucks” comments are good either
@@cosmicify7126 no he wasn't they both were slackers and irresponsible. Fucking npc with selective memory
I don't hate Mordecai, I just don't like that he puts his relationships above his best friend. 🤦🏾♀️
I will be piss to if that happen to my friend. Unluckily its happen irl
Mordecai does act fake sometimes. In the movie Rigby lied about getting in and Mordecai not getting into College University because he didn't want to lose Mordecai. He had to go to another college and he assumed Mordecai would go off to CU, so he lied and didn't go to college and stayed at Mordecai's dorm in another college. He didn't want to go to college without Mordecai because Mordecai was his only friend and he didn't want to lose him. Mordecai even killed Rigby over a girl in an episode, all because Rigby just wanted to watch a movie with him. Mordecai said he thinks Rigby is smart in his own way when Rigby asked if he was dumb, but in his head he still looks down on Rigby to some degree because he's dumb. Rigby knows and acknowledges he's an idiot and he's a screw up because, throughout his life, everyone has told him that, so he suffers from a lack of self confidence. Rigby is an idiot sometimes but deep down he's a really good friend.
voiceless glottal fricative idk man, if he was a real friend he would have wanted the best for mordi and not lied to him.
@@bigtittyboy748 that's true but he didn't want their friendship to be ruined by mordecai going to college without him so he thought he could fix it
I don’t have a friend so if I had a gf than that’s all I gotta worry about
I was having problems with Mordecai ever since he's started having romantic arcs that never really go anywhere and only end in disappointment.
so season 5?
I mean it's kinda realistic
@@tobysmith2081 no, that annoying literally he broke with CJ 5 TIMES!!! And they still dating only to ship Mordecai with a random bat.
@@mohamedlamin2968 He could have made a comeback with Margaret.
IsaacTheGoat nah like toby said; it’s realistic though, sometimes the people that you spend the most time with and love the most just end up leaving someday. You can appreciate the relationship that you had but gotta move on.
Alternate title: Mordecai is a massive simp and a terrible friend.
Edit: So many people have said that rigby is bad too. I just want to mention that rigby is not great either, but i was just focusing on mordecai, since that's what this video is about.
@@xandervanbecelaere8421 what does that mean ?
🇸 🇮 🇲 🇵
I mean both of them are terrible friends to begin with
Eh, rewatch the series, they were both shitty to each other. If it doesn't equal out, Rigby was shittier.
Rigby literally stole Mordecai's acceptance letter so he didn't leave him for college, Rigby is 100% worse.
I know for a fact that someone is gonna make a comment about Mordicai being a simp, if someone does, tell them I called it.
i mean...
Oof
I was about to but now I'm not lmao
the comment above you is literally a guy calling Mordecai a simp
better put the phone on silent
The only Simp worse than Mordecai is comic Thanos.
I lost respect for thanos long ago because he destroyed many people for lady death
Omg yeah he literally wanted to destroy all life for a girl that didn’t love him back 🤦♂️
@Mineta is thanos nahhhh.... I'm pretty sure he has had over 20 girls in the show...Brian is just an unfaithful prick.
Davy Jones from Pirates of the Caribbean
Pulling a Thanos
I love how rigby sleeps on a pile of clothes that he never wears
I know this is late, but the only reason that he doesn't sleep on a bed is because Mordecai stole his to double up his own bed because it's "just too comfortable"
@@starshames Mordecai wasn’t shit for that😂
@@starshames Mordecai took Rigby's bed
*So Rigby took Mordecai's future*
@@holdguard4624 OML UR RIGHT AHAHAHAA
I mean HE IS a raccoon
Calling someone a "simp" is obviously a rip-off of "pulling a Mordecai"
Lmao
True
It totally is lol
@rumble me Please tell me at least 5 people who have used the word "simp" before 2019.
@yah yeet lol
Mordecai cared more about girls even more that his best friend, even when the girls abandoned him.
but he still cared bout his bro
@@prodteendizaster2380 that's true.
Y'all forget Mordecai's relationships with these girls outside of the simp compilations-in summary of what I said in another reply thing, rewatch the series, there was much more to Margaret and CJ.
Mordecai isn't a bird... He's a bovine
Emporio Alnino he’s a blue jay
The huge difference in my mind between Mordo and Rigby is their growth throughout the series. Rigby is a pretty awful guy at first - lazy, stupid, causes trouble a lot. But as time goes on, he really grows as an individual. Eileen inspires him to become a better person and he becomes a great partner and goes back to get his high school diploma and it's really heart warming.
Mordecai never learns. He makes the same mistakes he did with CJ that he did with Margaret, he prioritises women he likes over his best friend. So many episodes are dedicated to helping impress Margaret whom in the end didn't care, while Rigby just wants to hang out with his best friend.
In the end, Rigby is the one in a stable and loving relationship because he didn't try to force anything and go simp mode, while Mordecai pushed too far with women and ended up ruining two friendships he had with them.
This is just wrong. Mordecai DID grow. After his relationship with CJ, he resolved a lot of the pent-up emotion he had towards Margaret and became okay with being single--that's character growth.
@@leogreenfield4999 no your wrong
He only lost margaret cause she went to college, and when she came back it was awkward for like half a season and then he made a mature decision and they were friends after that
@@cyruskuria5165 proof
@@leogreenfield4999 This right here
Its like throughout the series mordecai and Rigby switched places character wise rigby was more annoying but lovable earlier on and mordecai was more responsible and more respectable. As the series went on mordecai became more selfish and irresponsible while rigby was growing as a character and actually became a lot more relatable he formed a respectable relationship with eileen and had genuinely been happier and a lot more selfless
Yes finally someone puts it into words because I've somewhat noticed that
Rigby hands down, has one of the most satisfying character arcs Iv'e seen a character go through. Like yeah, he never even went to college like Mordecai, and it took him years to finish highschool. But in the end, he became more of a man than Mordecai could ever hope to become.
Eileen honestly made Rigby a better person. But CJ and Margaret drove Mordecai insane
Spot on
I like this. It shows that while some people become mature and better over the years, some people get worse. Though I do wish that Mordecai had a redemption arc in the end.
He actually didn’t drop out of college he was originally accepted in the movie but Rigby typed a new letter saying he was rejected and didn’t find out till years later
Different Colleges I believe
he ended up dropping out of a community college anyway
Markx 22 He went to an art school community college and later dropped out.
He did drop out from Art College
Now that's why rigbys an asshole I would never forgive that he sabotaged and lied to me.
Remember when mordeci kills rigby over Margaret? Yeah...
No one seems to remember that Rigby tried pushing him first. It seemed to be a kill or be killed situation. Mordecai did the smart thing and killed him.
@@quaggies7013 they both in the wrong on that one but Mordecai is more wrong by killing him, because it just shiws his insecurities that he couldn't "get the girl"
I hate when people bring that episode up like Rigby wasn't acting like an asshole the entire episode. And he shoved him first. Then Mordecai found a way to bring him back.
FireWarrior1016 exactly
Remember when Rigby tries to kill Mordicai over being PLAYER ONE?
I did hate him in this episode, but I hated him even more in "More Smarter"
Not for me personally, but I hated him in that episode to, honestly constantly making fun of him not having a diploma is what got them in the situation they were in, and no one tried to help rigby until Eileen motivated him, which did show that 1 person can fix someone’s outlook on life
Mordecai might have been an asshole in that assholes but its still one of my favorite episodes of the entire series
The Unknown yes I fucking love how they become so smart they begin talking in latin and they see everyone like cavemen it’s just too good
Ragnaric Studios I think that’s a little unfair, you gotta keep in mind Mordecai and Rigby are practically brothers, it’s normal for teasing and bragging to happen.
@@kmalik707 yea but theres a limit in where brothers can tease each other before they hit a sensetive topic.
Its never cool to target really personal stuff even if you do have a teasing relationship. This is coming from a person with 6 other siblings.
"This Episode Will Make You HATE Mordecai"
So, not It's Time? Or Jinx? Or simply every single episode where he's a simp?
You do have a point tho
He is very easy to hate.
I agree I expected it to be It's Time
More Smarter, he literally said "I'm not sure if we should both have diplomas, I'm the smart guy, and you're friend." What a dick. You'd rather have Rigby be dumb not have his diploma?
@@LeonardoShellhead Considering how he reacted to Rigby graduating, he definitely would.
I personally identify closely with Rigby, I left high school without graduating, never got a license, but I always do what I can for my friends even though I screw up sometimes. He's not stupid or lazy necessarily, he just sees himself as low so he never tries as hard for himself. But no matter what, he always stands up for his friends and people he cares about.
@Tornadoboy Facts
This comment>>> most relatable character in the show for me as well.
Thank you for summing up exactly what I love about him. I find him super relatable too.
And when he doesn’t, he goes with the crowd
Forget any Gumball relationship, you need to talk about Rigby and Eileen’s relationship and arc
Rigby and Eileen's relationship progression was also a really great relationship portrayal 💕
Gumball relationship with penny is a bit toxic but thats just me.
@Bara Men definitely
YES, PLEASE
@Kevin Eleven Darwin and Carrie got together? I didn't even know. I use to watch Gumball when I was younger, but stopped around season 4. That's cool, good for them.
I love how rigby was willing to endure excruciating pain, just to prove a point.
This is the type of man to finish a marathon on a broken leg.
The Chad Rigby:
•Has a strong relationship with a faithful significant other
•Works through his inescurites instead
Of wallowing in it

@@ivanivan744 rigby really wallows all night because Eileen wanted to date someone smart.
m god Yeah, but the dude was like "You know what? If Eileen wants someone smart, SHE'S GETTING SOMEONE SMART" and then he stopped and thought "Ok, maybe someone with average intelligence"
@@ivanivan744 he got over it just like mordecai eventually
m god I mean, kinda? He realized Eileen loved him for who he was, but he still continued until graduation for himself. So i guess the motivation just changed
Unrelated to the video but Thomas was the most chill character I’ve ever seen in cartoons
Wasn't he a russian spy?
Hes the goat literally
@@vanessalionel7614 that was so good😂😂
yeah he was great
Berlian Cs - yes, he was. The creators even bizarrely made an episode all about that.
Mordecai took Rigby's mattress when it was delivered so that he could put it underneath his own. A year later, he confessed to it, but kept both mattresses.
Friend of the year.
tbf by that point, Rigby had grown fond of his trampoline. There was even a later ep where he tried to get a normal bed but couldn’t get comfy in it. But it is wrong that Mordecai took his mattress in the first place
Lol rigby re-wrote an acceptance letter from mordecai’s dream school into a rejection letter so he wouldnt leave, mattresses are small business in this friendship
@@RobertsonIsland Mordecai Killed him Twice directly and once indirectly
@@maximodubs4189 ok i remember obviously when he pushed him off the microwave, but i dont count that as him trying to kill rigby... they were fighting and rigby pushed him first plus we’ve all said “ill kill you” to someone and most of us aren’t murderers. What were the other 2?

@@charon_lix when u got bathroom water in your pants
@@Kirbo14 Makes sense because Candace is a Simp to Jeremy
Really, Mordecai didn’t even need to admit to skipping out on work. All Rigby wanted was for him to tell everyone that he was helpful. He just had to say “Guys, Rigby may be lazy at times, but he has been more productive as of late. He’s been helping out more so that I can spend more time with CJ. And yes Benson, he can in fact replace a lightbulb on his own.”
Boom, all that needed to be said. And he couldn’t even do that. I’ve been disappointed in Mordecai before, but this was just a brand new level of low for me.
by not even donig that one would prolly do what rigby did there: quit on the spot, but not before making sure mordecai would be fired aswell by coming clean.
and the fact Benson didn't even get mad at Mordecai for not doing his work is completely out of character!
I already lost respect for him when he not only acted like a simp to Margaret, but to CJ as well. I thought he would be better off single, and the writers thought he would be better off single, but in the ending they just make him marry this random bat girl???
And then cheated on CJ.
Hopefully he changed his ways with the bat girl but I doubt it
Because he grew up and met someone past the usual time frame of the show fans are exposed to.
Is he not allowed to grow off screen?
I think him marrying a woman not part of the main cast was a good idea. It showed that he's grown up after the events of the show and isn't just chasing women or thirsting over his past girlfriends anymore. He grew mature enough to have a stable relationship.
Batter Sempai fax
You know another fact, ever since Mordecai fell in love with Margaret, it was always him bailing out, because he never knew what to say. Now ever since Mordecai was in a relationship with CJ, there was practically no stability and it all ended up falling down hill. He became obsessed wit CJ and he never took the time to mature himself, in the process.
Guys and Girls please take care of yourselves and be sure too love yourself before you love anyone else.
CJ was only there to cause drama, it's why she never appears again after Muscle Man's wedding episode.
When Mordecai refused to say Rigby was useful was just absolutely enraging. Even his stoic face when he says “Yeah, you’re my friend” shows he knows what he should say but he just doesn’t want to. He doesn’t care.
I agree I was very confused when Mordecai said that Rigby was not useful and the chairs episode last I remember Rigby literally took down the destroyer of worlds all by himself with both his hands and his tail in my opinion that seems pretty useful to me
Its weird that mordecai simps for so long on C.J. and Margrette but ends up with Some bat lady.
He did grow, I guess, and practically destroyed any chance he had with CJ. With the fanbase divided between the Morderet and Cloudecai shippers, I think the bat lady was just them "taking a third option".
@@foxymetroid Also timeskip
the bat lady was proof that he finally grew from cj and margeret and they all took their own paths
@@snyderovigot9136 sad that it took Pops life for Mordecai to stop his simping ways and be matured though
@@alexiscando5709 ever since space happened mordecai was going o end up with someone else regardless, and if pops didnt die they would just reset and not even rigby would marry eileen.
I personally find that both Mordecai and Rigby have episodes where I can't stand them. For Mordecai, I hate It's Time. For Rigby, I can't think of one right now but there are a few
Wall buddy and fortune cookie are some examples
Goku Black I didn’t mind fortune cookie because he actually didn’t see Benson’s bad luck, and muscleman gave rigby his bad luck, so it was really his fault.
Do me a solid maybe? I can't really think of anything.
In Wall Buddy, Rigby was a massive brat.
Literally almost every episode things go to shit because of Rigby's fault
I feel like Rigby was the true protagonist of Regular Show.
I liked him better
Ah yes, Simpicai and Rigboi.
I actually cried a little when Rigs got out from under Mordo's shadow and had his graduation.
I like the episode but Mordecai just ruins the it, because he acts like a jealous child. After watching that episode when I was younger it dawned on me, Mordecai is an ass
Virgin Simpicai vs Chad Rigboi
@@LemonnNote wait... Didn't Rigby do that first when they were college? Rigby switched his result with Mordecai on purpose just because he didn't pass.
Kartrouse Plays it wasn’t because Rigby didn’t pass, it was because Rigby thought if Mordicai went to collage it would ruin their friendship. Rigby didn’t think it was wrong so that’s what he did.
{LS} Cosmos "didn't think it was wrong" doesn't excuse him for being controlling
Certainly this episode was Mordecai at his worst, but he's decent overall. The recovery certainly was impressive.
Mordecai had a dip in my opinion. He started out alright, took a nosedive in the middle of the series, and recovered at the end.
Rigby just kept gradually getting better and his low point really was at the start of the series.
Guanglai Kangyi, Age 15 I feel like it’s cause Mordecai started good while Rigby started out bad. Rigby could only improve because he was already at the bottom of his life, while Mordecai was always more or less a simp and he just became a super simp.
@@koichidignitythief7429 Rigby was by definition a character no one would look up to,but the turn around in everything in later seasons made him the most interesting animal next to Bojack. Crazy!
@@koichidignitythief7429 He certainly did have a dip, but he recovered rather well. Sure, he simped a while but by the time they went to space he did show some positive growth.
@@kennethhizkia3864 When I said Mordecai recovered, I was refering to Just Friends because to me that's where Mordecai's simpish behavior pretty much died for the rest of the series. Unless I forgetting an episode after that.
When rigby collapsed on the bed and Mordecai asked rigby to do him another favor. I would have kicked Mordecai in the jaw.
Real dick move. The audacity to even pull that shit after you see how your friend was upset.
Honestly
I can't wait for you to cover that episode where Rigby graduates. It's the absolute worst because of how Mordecai is with rigby. He was so upset that rigby was successful and accomplished in something, it's the most disgusting thing ever. What you said in this video about how Mordecai sees himself when compared to rigby resonated with me because it pointed out something that I thought when I went and rewatched the graduation episode. Mordecai needs to be better than rigby at everything for the sake of his own mercenary ego. Even side characters like High Five Ghost pointed out how messed up it was that Mordecai couldn't be happier for his friend's success at something major.
Rigby deserved a better friend. Mordecai says that rigby held him back all his life, so why did he decide to let him stick around if that's how he truly felt? Mordecai holds himself back because of how complacent he is.
You put that perfectly I couldn’t have said it better myself
Benson even tore Mordecai a new one in that episode.
@Anime Drip you can have lots of things in common with a toxic friend; that doesn't stop them from being bad for you
Didn’t rigby make a fake decline letter when mordecai got accepted into college?
@@jinpyo2267 Yes, I guess their both guilty then.
The Reason Why He didn't end Up with Them
Margaret: She's like Mordecai but more confident which is incredibly dangerous. Because she thinks highly of herself and gets angry.
CJ: She let things go and was real chill. And more like Mordecai she fit into the group for a couple episodes until it got a lil stale but she actually made Mordecai happy and clean. He took advantage of her clamness making her an anrgy stormy cloud too many times.
After The End Of The Show
Mordecai learns he need to work on Mordecai and live in lonliness for his mistakes until he learns to love himself and his art. Then he meets Steph at the very end
@@Dragzilla66 😂😂 haha yeah they did. In the comics i think
Apart from the movie double date screw up mordecai did nothing wrong to cj she was unstable af
What? CJ is literally a controlling bitch, who made Mordicai's life miserable. She kept on overreacting every time he hung out with other women and always blew it out of proportion. She couldn't just be more mature, no, instead she just enabled Mordecai to be more and more of a simp.
@@YujiUedaFan if you see the person you are dating kissing their 'friend' and then acting falsely innocently, how'd you feel about it?
Leena Godoy except that one
These simp videos/compilations-not blaming you, personally, it's not your fault-ruined people's perception of Mordecai. They forget literally everything else outside of his simping, and forget that simping is when you're in a one-sided romantic relationship with someone who shows no interest in anything romantic with you. Shit got romantic with Margaret in season 4, and romantic with CJ in season 5-Mord and CJ actually had a good thing going in 5 and 6. But all they remember is season 1, 2, and 3, where he didn't have anything going for him romantically.
They also forget the shittiness of Rigby throughout the whole show. If you stack up the shittiness throughout the seasons, it's worse with Rigby-I mean, he bet all of the park member's lives over a bowling ball. He can be a whiny bitch sometimes. But at the end of the day, they're both good people.
Glad I’m not the only one seeing how hypocritical this fan base is being
@@CombatSportsNerd ikr they completely downplay Mordecai's character and shit on him just cuz he's a simp, Mordecai has flaws to flesh him out more simping happens to be one of em. And they worship and glorify Rigby cuz he a chad apparently and has no flaws or shortcomings, Rigby has a ton of flaws and started out as a massive asshole to everyone. Like for example he destroyed the whole park and beat up everyone just cuz he couldn't be player one in a game. Rigby is no better than Mordecai but he still has good traits like covering up for his friend. Mordecai also stuck up for RIgby in the Eggcellent challenge when he was sick and when Benson talked shit about him Mordecai punched him in the face and defended him, that's real friendship there. But apparently the close minded hypocritical fanbase seems to center Mordecai's entire character around being a simp so he's a simp with no other traits or redeeming qualities. Sorry for my long rant
Cockroach thx for actually being non biased and recognizing both characters flaws and good qualities. Ppl overexaggerate when it comes to simping
@@donathan2933 yeah, both aren't perfect and both had done horrible things to each other and other people to the point that it's a debate who's the shittiest. But at the end of the day, they still hold a strong bond of friendship, as toxic as it may be due to their flaws, and have each other's backs.
We just got the satisfaction of seeing Rigby get the spotlight and grow up as a better person after being a prick in the previous seasons and in the movie, while Mordecai's happened during the ending of the show
@@granmastersword still Rigby has grown as a person and after season 6, Mordecai got over his simping. Both are much more likable by the end of the show
Remember that time he was jealous of how proud everyone was of Rigby for graduating high school so he decided to not go to his graduation or support him? Of course, he ended up going, but still. Rigby called him out for how selfish he was being.
So did High Five Ghost iirc
It's not like it isn't a human thing to be jealous because of how his own life wasn't going anywhere and was stuck in a rut. Is he not allowed to have flaws?
Honestly I never really liked some of the characters.
Mordecai is just weird when it comes to girls
CJ is too quick to assume
And along those lines
I really like Eileen, Rigby and Thomas (Nikolai)
Yeah, I hated CJ, because she was just there to cause drama.
CJ: HOW DARE YOU HUG YOUR FRIEND YOU ONCE WENT OUT WITH!!!
I mean, Mordecai is kinda a simp, but if he didn't try at all, CJ would have just called him out on it.
Ueda Yuuji Fan He hugged her after kissing her after Mordecai and CJ were already established to be in a relationship. Don't act like you'd keep it cool if you saw your significant other hug someone they just cheated on you with, out of context.
How about skips or pops or benson
@@slamzam I liked all of them

I honestly don't mind Mordecai, but when it comes to episodes like this, I really can't stand how he's portrayed. He really redeemed himself towards the end of the show.
@@xandervanbecelaere8421 1
Would have been cooler if we get to see his improvement in the ending with more detail
He ended the show by being with some nameless character and nobody looked happy. Yeah he "redeemed" himself

I like buddy Mordecai than depressed Mordecai.
@Carlos Ramirez can we stop using the word simp just because everyone uses it
@@philhuntsman7588 I agree honestly I hate that word because it just become annoying and stupid now and it also seem like it lost all meaning at this point it a buzz word pretty much
They wrote him like this on purpose, this is a huge flaw in his character rhat he overcame by the end.
@@philhuntsman7588 the word definitely is overused. However, it’s the best description of Mordecai.
So to summarize Mordecai is a SiMP a Liar and a bad friend and dont forget he hated and wasnt happy when Rigby was graduating from Highschool
Didnt rugby hide mordecai college papers or something of that nature so he wouldn't be left behind?
If I was Rigby I would of just leave Mordecai and find a new best friend that actually care for him and let him be, I mean all that Mordecai cares for is girls, even than he finds way to even screw that up. The number 1 lesson is don’t be a SIMP and use your friend all the time because that’s never gonna end well in real life
@@Troll_vs. yeah and Mordecai kills Rigby by accident for getting Margaret attention and also makes fun of Rigby for not having a High School diploma

And I thought Johnny Bravo was bad

I like how everybody is talking about Regular show in 2020, despite the fact it ended 3 years ago.
dangg
Makes me feel old
Nostalgia.
Cause it's a show to watch regularly
It's funny because I actually just finished it two weeks ago and now there's randomly all this content about it.
Mordecai is the embodiment of that one friend that would leave you quickly for their partner no matter how toxic the relationship...
I've had friends do that to me multiple times and they never realized they were in the wrong no matter who tells them they wouldn't even listen to their family. I hate friends like that because we all know that their relationship will end and then they'll come back to you like nothing happened. The worst part about it is that they'll keep doing the same thing over and over again in almost every relationship that they're in and they won't feel bad about it which sucks
If it happens multiple times with no maturity or progress I tell ya get yourself new friends.
Rigby is almost always the one who convinces Mordecai to slack off. This is a one off episode where Mordecai is lazy of his own fault.
And with rigby that’s his character, mordecai is supposed to be a voice of reason, so it’s worse when he does it.
@@ragnaricstudios5888 right, I know.
I feel like the roles reversed later in the series
Ragnaric Studios
Mordecai is like Brian from Family Guy
They both want more from women
Abdulrahim Mala and rigby became Stewie, became the best character throughout seasons
I really like Mordecai's character, but I cant stand him when he is after a girl, because he gets so selfish.
Mordecai hardly ever tells the workers at the park that Rigby is useful and helps around the park but he never ever sees the fact that IF Rigby wasn't there with him working at the park with him in season 1 then 1) Mordecai would have maybe never gotten with Margret and still would be the same shy simp stuttering at his crush and 2) would have never met CJ because Rigby was the one who made the dating account that actually brought Mordecai and CJ together
I thought it would be the episode Jinx in that episode Mordecai was so mean to rigby it literally was 10 minutes of Mordecai punching Rigby for no real reason
Meh it was a game
Limitamations studio there was a way to punch him for him to not get knocked down all the time in that “game”
@@limitamationsstudio8916 yeah it was a game but Rigby is weak is known to be one of the weakest in the park so punching him really hard all day isnt good even the other workers like skips and muscleman who are incredibly strong hitting him isn't funny
Yh he was kinda enjoying it and i kinda felt sorry for rigby but that does not say that rigby would not have done the same if he was bigger
So there both in the wrong plus its not like mordecai was tryna kill him
@@limitamationsstudio8916 if you were getting bullied would you not fight back if you were bigger? They were all enjoying it rigby could have died, skips killed him in an arm wrestling match
Rigby's the one that introduced Mordecai to CJ, too. Honestly, I loved how Rigby stood up for himself at the end of this episode:
Mordecai: "You're just gonna hurt your back."
Rigby: "Not as much as when you stabbed it!"
Respect, Rigby, respect.
Edit: HOLY CRAP I know everyone says "ohh wow thanks for all da likes" when they get a buttload of likes, but THANKS this is the most likes I've ever gotten! To anyone who's reading this, I hope you have a day as beautiful as your face 😁💖
Mordecai knew cj before he asked Margret to be his girlfriend
@@Shy223 true he met her throughout the app that Rugby up him on though
🙁
I'm sorry I'm late, but I firmly believe Eileen is the best character in the show. She's super supportive of Rigby, Margaret, and even Mordecai, and I think that her bringing Mordecai still made sense in-character. She probably didn't know the full story of how much of a jerk Mordecai was being, and even if she did she's someone who inherently hates conflict and wanted Mordecai and Rigby to just be friends again (probably for the sake of Rigby's back.
This episode, “lift with your back” is one of my favorites because Rigby is my favorite character in Regular show. He is super relatable to me, and funny. But this episode adds ALOT of character development, and by the end of the episode almost left me in tears no lie. And by the end of the show, Rigby was in my opinion the best character and most developed. Boom
Completely Agreed
I'm not trying to be rude, but the episode is called "Lift With Your Back" but yes, I do agree with your statement
Xander VanBecelaere Stop
Wuh? There are no rules to liking a character? You can like a character for their character, personality, relatability or even design? Everyone has different opinions and preferences.
Weird fact: during mating season blue jays get aggressive and when it ends they get less aggressive except when protecting there children. So his character is on point
Nice!
That’s not being aggressive though, Simpicai was being a leech.
If he was aggressive like a blue jay, he would have shown envy & been direct, but also not necessarily used Rigby to get with CJ, a Blue jay that stuck the meaning of bird would have invited CJ to their work instead.
Mordecai was the reason I stopped watching the show. Ive always loved Rigby over Mordecai. I've seen this attitude wayyy early on and I even tried to like him but knowing the creator voices him and favors him, hes just gonna continue to piss me off. I was in the minority but looks like people are finally seeing his true colors.
Yeah like seriously, I loved Rigby since he's so underrated, He's way funnier than Mordecai (cuz of the ball joke) and they always shit on Rigby because he's "weak" and "dumb"
Did you ever finish the show?
@@Ported_Cone Rigby is not underrated
Same. Also the reason I'm not interested in Close Enough, Mordecai is one of the most embarrassing examples of a creator self insert ive ever seen
How should Mordecai have been better?
Game idea : take a shot everytime Mordecai is a simp or a liar or just an overall bad friend-
Hear lies a lot of people. Who died from the drinking game about mordecai.
Episode 1:
*I suffer an alcoholic coma*
You didn’t need to add liar or bad friend. We would of died from the simp one alone.
@@jiraffe9600 true
@@jiraffe9600 oh shit you right
Modrecai is the very definition of SIMP
Rigby is the ultimate chad
Oversimplification. Mordecai was bad with women but could often find solutions with Rigby's problems (the episode with Don and how Rigby resented his brother) and despite Rigby's screw ups (sabotaged Mordecai's chances at college), Mordecai never stopped being friends with him. And before you bring up how he killed Rigby for something petty, don't forget that Skips did the very same thing, and like Skips, Mordecai fixed it in the end. As for Rigby, he developed a stable relationship with a girl, but again, was self destructive and would often cause problems for everyone. Both matured by the end of the show, just from different issues.
Isn’t rigby also the same person that forged a letter saying Mordecai didn’t get into his college and that’s essentially what got him into working for the park
Nah, He a simp for sure but Rigby ain't really that much of a chad
Kevin Vizcarra
Finally a mature take on the show
@@hydrogendiamond5830 damn you smart
ngl, When he started going off about “the least he could do” I swear he’s channeling rigbys anger, I started hearing you as rigby
I like Mordecai, but Good Lord above when he hits a low point he HITS it. At his best, he’s a somewhat relatable character who struggled to maintain relationships. At his worst, he’s an ignorant jerk who has a simp complex.
Btw can we get a “This Episode Will Make You Hate Rigby” video? I nominate Playco Armboy. Or Death Punch.
Edit: O-K. The kind people in the comments have just informed me that neither of these episodes have Rigby acting like a jerk. Anyone have any suggestions?
Or the movie because rigby could have ruined mordecais life by changing the collage papers
death punch has so much different context when you have seen the series and see how mordecai really does make Rigby the punching bag for everyone, kind of weird to look back and see him as the petty whiney Rigby
InanimateSum Fair enough.
Elisa Castro True. I just wanna hear Jay’s opinion on an episode where Rigby is a horrible character .
Wall Buddy.
Mordecai is the epitome of ‘if you’re gonna backstab everyone eventually you’ll backstab yourself’
I mean this just kinda shows how deep this show can get. And how mature it was.
I hate Mordecai but love Rigby in this episode. Its the one of the early episodes that show how much Rigby has changed as a character.
Did you forget muscle mentor? I swear people have selective memory
Finally, someone actually reviewed this episode. This was one of my worst Regular Show episodes not only because of Mordecai’s actions but because of where it was placed on; it’s like watching season 1 or 2 Mordecai and Rigby again but Rigby has a full list of things he’s helped Mordecai out of and Mordecai just tears the whole thing to shreds.
Yeah it sort of switched Mordecai and Rigby's characters around, with Rigby being the mature, responsible one and Mordecai being the irresponsible one who uses people. This is the exact opposite of what their personalities were in the first season
There are a lot of toxic relationships in this show but I would say Rigby and Eileen are the healthiest relationship besides Muscle Man and Starla.
That scene kinda pissed me off and I was like alright Mordecai your doing him dirty
Birds shouldn’t be that tall and walk like humans to begin with
its a cartoon come on bro.
bruh there’s a talking gumball machine in the show
They were all humans but took Acid and they see all this
Ostriches are taller than most humans.
I feel like Mordecai and Rigby went opposite ways in their development, when the series starts Rigby is admittedly very annoying since he causes most of the conflicts in the first few seasons BUT what I like about his character is that he didn't stay there instead he found a very supportive and non toxic girl who helped him change into the best version of himself, Mordecai on the other hand, the first few episodes he's a tolerable character, but as more and more women get involved the scummy side comes out more, the fact that he murdered Rigby over a temporary girl that never even liked him or acknowledged his existence, and again in this episode he thinks that because their dynamic has always been him being a fake and manipulative piece of $!#% that it's okay to continue the dynamic, that gets me heated, however it's nowhere near as bad as the Rigby graduation episode in which he refused to attend because 'Oh now everyone's gonna be talking about Rigby more and I'll lose my power in this dynamic I've built because Rigby took it upon himself to grow as a person boo hoo' that was the episode that actually made me appreciate Rigby way more than Mordecai because while he started off a nuisance he slowly matures into a better man... Mordecai tho? I never see him grow as a person in fact in the final episode I'm sure the creative team was so tired of his simpy @$$ that they just gave him an offscreen wife to avoid having to explain how it would go down that honestly makes me feel like Rigby is personally my favorite character, he starts off as the conflict instigator but with time he grows into one of the best supporting characters in the show and that is what makes a good plot imho
He was never annoying.
Wonder how Mordecai could have been better then?
5:43 Mordecai is such a bad character, his name will remain forever tainted, burning your tongue and frying your taste buds individually as each letter is worded out
Darwin.
Mordecai never really learns anything from the relationship arc. I think it would be fine if someone helped him out and showed him why what he did was wrong. But it just makes it frustrating that no points out how much of a simp Mordecai is. At least at the end of Dumptown USA, he did have the common decency to back away from relationships after all of it.
5:25 Honestly when I was younger and I saw this scene I didn’t know and understood what was going on and questioned Rigby’s decision to quit the park but now after experiencing relationships and being a simp I realized that Rigby’s decision was completely justified and he has the right to quit and leave his best friend...shiiiut if my friend told me that covering his responsibility solo just for him to see his girl and him telling me that’s the best I can do well....let’s just say....he’s not going to have a best friend
“but I never ASKED you to do those things!” ignoring the fact that Mordecai was blatantly lying by saying that, wtf kind of reasoning is that? If someone does generous things for you w/o being asked, you don’t at least owe them support when they’re being accused like Rigby was? You shouldn’t feel grateful for their generosity bc “hey you paid my hospital bill w/o being asked, so I owe you nothing”. If someone is buying stuff/doing things for you that you don’t appreciate and have told them not to, that’s different, but this? Like u said, being Mordecai’s friend doesn’t obligate Rigby to do any of the crap he did.
Also ppl rlly do forget that Mordecai is almost as much of a slacker as Rigby and only a slightly better worker by comparison, yet he acts like he’s SO much better
Lie! Mordecai asked for Rigby do this things, because WTF?! The words "Dude, could you cover me?" Arent a asking?!, And i agree with your comment
Who stayed by Mordecai side when he was kicked by Margaret and Cj, Benson? Skips? Muscle Man? High Five Ghost? NO! RIGBY! He helped Mordecai several times, and who makes Rigby creates a several grade of inferiority?! Everyone...but especially Mordecai
@@Eric-py8yy I love all 3 of these comments. Finally people actually get it ❤️💯
Mordei: it was the least you could do
Wasn’t it Rigb hook you up with CJ? When you were in a depressed state after being “dumped“ by Margaret, he signed you up on that dating site where you met her.
Yeah, first time watching this show, I liked Mordecai and disliked Rigby, but upon growing up and watching all of the show till the Finale, I relate to Rigby more and grew to dislike Mordecai a bit.
Do we all just ignore that Rigby straight up ruined Mordecai’s future and didn’t regret his actions for a second until years later, when Mordecai found out because of a third party and decided to end their friendship…?
Nothing Mordecai ever did was even remotely close to that.
If we were to ever take Mordecai’s actions seriously, we would need to remind ourselves that Rigby is an objectively much worse person.
And saying Regular Show became terrible might as well be the biggest exaggeration I’ve ever seen. Characters being flawed makes a show worse now…?
That’s new to me.
Think in perspective people hated Rigby for changing mordecai college letter and let's say he didn't if mordecai would of gone to that college he would be a serious jerk there to the point of maybe killing someone out of jealousy for a girl who doesn't know that he exists
Both characters are terrible people. I like rigby more personally. Seriously we wouldn't have regular show without rigby. And for the most part regular show is a show about growing up and changing past your old self and flaws.
"The least he could have done was never accept any solids from him when it comes to CJ" But Alpha, he HAS to. Or reality will tear itself apart, dont you remember that episode?
Well you have to agree to the solid before hand. Mordecai agreed to do all 10 solids which is why reality was breaking apart because that was apart of the 10 solids
I understand Mordecai's insecurities, but he ignores Rigby imo, at least occasionally.
Like on the pink sweater episode
@@RayoMcQueen95990 Pushed the guy out of the car and left him to run, shameful.
More Smarter is one of my least favorite episodes that have Mordecai and Rigby arguing. Yes, Rigby should have cared more in high school, but the fact that Mordecai calls Rigby out for not having a high school diploma, and ruthlessly teases him about it actually makes me side with Rigby in that episode.
You know, I used to believe Mordecai was always the better person between the two, but that was also when I was a growing teenager who probably would've done the same thing. Honestly, I'm glad I grew up from that, and I promise if I ever find someone like Rigby, I'd tell them to sock me in the jaw if I ever mistreat him/her
He was Usually The better person but oh God he has moments when he couldn't be worse
Mordecai isn't a growing teenager he's in his 20's
@Mildburner 567 den y u asking
Paul Ghencea nah not really, even in the beginning of the series its not that one was “worst” than the other. They were both just good and bad in different areas of life depending on the task. It’s like a yin yang thing and why rigby and mordecais dynamic work so well. Neither eas worse or better than the other, they equally cancel each other out
The thing I hate most about this episode is that it was Rigby was the one who kind set both Mordecai and CJ up together with couple Corral and Mordecai doesn't even acknowledge that.
Alpha Jay: This concept is good on paper at 1:19
*Literally shows a character with a stack of paper*
XD
Whats great about regular show is the characters arent 100% always perfect. Mordecai cant be awesome every day forever. Sometimes we get complacent, we forget about how we effect other people, we take things for granted here and again, and sometimes slip back to immaturity. Even rigby has some relapses of dickness after his gradual change.
Finally someone that also Think in this Way
I know the word simp is like overused (despite it actually being a word for a long while). But Mordecai is one of the faces of the word, never put yourself after a woman, brethren. Have self-respect.
I kinda hate how the internet just took it and made it into something else. Now I cant call someone a simp when I just mean simpleton anymore.

True, Morty destroyed his universe for simping
@@gilgameshthetreasurehunter2750 Right
It's actually crazy to me how Mordecai's brain has developed fully and he still can't man up and give a sincere apology to Rigby after everything they've been through, after everything Mordecai put Rigby through.
I personally think Mordecai character in the show is to show us kids/teens what to not be as an adult. We see how he handles relationships and how we shouldn't try to be like him.
& Rigby shows the opposite. He loves Eileen & treats her not as a goddess, but as his equal. They both have equal say in the relationship & talk about their problems. Even when Eileen has an irrational fear, Rigby supports her. They also show that the two buy each other little meaningful gifts like a nice scarf instead of the kind of gaudy grandiose displays of romance Modecai is fond of. Its adorable & more importantly, a realistically healthy relationship.
@@Fanimati0n plus the fact Rigby showed a interest in stuff Eileen was into, why Mordecai barely shares interest in his gf hobbies or act interested to get closer and make em like him more.
Well even though the Park employees do see the fact that Rigby is a slacker it doesn't change the fact that they are still Rigby's friends, like they all hang out together and save each other's lives on a daily basis, like I'd expect Skips to atleast say something because he truly cares about everyone's well being so to see him not call out Mordecai is weird.
I agree. Even in the “video game wizard” episode in which Rigby was acting WAY more selfish than this, Skips urged Mordecai to try seeing things from rigby’s point of view, and broke his own fucking hand to preserve their friendship. It also feels kinda weird for Pops to be so mean to Rigby; even if he is a slacker that never seemed to bother Pops. I rlly don’t like in episodes like this or “Expert or Liar” they just turn all the park employees into dicks for the sake of the plot (of course it varies; it’s one thing to mess around but the way they gang up on Rigby and mock him is too much sometimes)
@@tiablue9106 It's as if some episodes act like those life saving moments and friendship they gained was non existent, unless it's a plot convenience.
@@tiablue9106 How were the crew all AHs in '"Expert or Liar"? Benson was kind to Rigby for one of the first times on the show, I guess Muscle Man was a bit mean to the guy at the end though.
Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars, I could really use a wish right now 💜💙
Lift with Your Back, It's Time and Jinx make me irrationally angry. I despise how mean spirited Mordecai can be.
When rigby is annoying, he makes a comeback as a character, I still respect him, but mordecai I end up rooting for him less and less as seasons went on
Nah it’s not irrational because Mordecai was a bad friend
@@ragnaricstudios5888 Rigby was never annoying and for the most part he's handled his own problems.

What’s the difference
@@mohandzubi8781 Darwin is more good natured than Mordecai. Darwin wanted nothing more than to make Gumball happy and keep him safe from his own antics. Mordecai will even give up Rigby for even 64 seconds of one girl.
@@phillipwalling7470 Are people really comparing Darwin to Mordecai?
Why?
Darwin is one of my faves of all time
He was comparing Darwin's relarionship with Gumball to Rigby's relationship with Mordecai
Man, I wish benson was with that dome girl that he liked 😞
He did end up with her tho
I love on the wiki for Benson that one of his skills is getting drunk off wings
Looking back, Mordecai was so terrible at romance that he'd be better off single. If your idea of romance involves throwing your friends under the bus, treating your girlfriend as some type of Goddess and not a person, and being increasingly jealous of every guy she hangs out with (even if they're just friends), you don't deserve love. This is another prime example of the show being well passed its prime and should've ended after its 4th or 5th season 😒
It ain’t that deep man It’s just a show
@@raccoonasmr word why is he getting so upset lmao
Those are called "character flaws". Good characters need to have flaws. His skewed perspective of relationships & how he manages them are an example off that. He's lazy, he can be a jerk, he's terrible with women & romance in general, etc etc. Those are flaws. Flaws in a character are a good thing because they add depth.
@@raccoonasmr I really hate when people think that animation can't have depth. Animation is just as much a form of art as any other, & denying that pigeonholes the entire medium.
@@Fanimati0n that's no excuse. He should've been called out for his flaws and better himself as the show went on. Instead he became worse of a character and the show overstayed its welcome.
the later seasons of regular show did turn into a romantic soap opera
You know I often questioned their friendship, and I thought the only reason why Mordecia hangs with Rigby is because Mordecai needs Rigby to make him look better because without Rigby, he's an average joe.
I used to enjoy this show a lot but I started to lose interest when they were emphasizing more Mordecai's love struggle and I guess the last straw for me was when the first chick he was crushing on came back while he was dating cloud girl and i dont even remember what happened but yeah I really wasnt up for this stuff.
I feel the exact same way. And it really jumped the shark when they went to space.
@@icecreamhero2375 nah the space stuff was cool and more hanging out with the guys
I already hated Mordecai before I saw this episode.
Rigby also has a healthier relationship with women, namely Eileen, they started out as friends and slowly he started dating and ended up with her. Rigby didn't chase girls he let life happen and it did. Rigby also never lets Eileen except for rare occasions take away his "power" and she knows it.
More than hating mordecai this the episode that made me LIKE rigby
I mean thanks to this episode i could take seriously the selfmade promise to re take highschool to be a better man for Eileen
