Review: Regular Show ”The End of Muscle Man”
Spoilers Below
Muscle Man makes a list and he wants to make sure it gets done by the end of the day. Turns out a doctor has told Muscle Man something, but he’s pretty vague with what during his speech. Death shows up looking for Muscle Man, and it appears everything is going to happen at ‘Wing Kingdom’. High Fives is devastated, so Benson does his best to reassure everyone that the best thing to do is to help Muscle Man with his bucket list. The guys head over to the Muscle Man’s house and get a call that ‘Muscle Man won’t be here much longer, and he’s going to be in a better place.” A montage ensues and Benson spends a SHIT load of money on making sure Muscle Man is happy. Afterwards, Muscle Man opts to part with all of his shit, but really what he wants to do is go to ‘Wing Kingdom’ with his best friends. The crew says good bye, and as Muscle Man goes to the bathroom, Starla shows up just in time to see Muscle Man’s funeral.
Actually, Muscle Man is just fine, and we find out that Muscle Man is dead, and in his place is Mitch. Mitch proposes marriage to Starla, but then Starla rejects Mitch in favor of Muscle Man. Benson and the rest of the park friends were PISSED, but High Fives definitely considers this the best proposal ever.
And just like that, we get the best episode of Regular Show all year. Reason being is because this week’s plot had me HOOKED until the twist ending, and that isn’t easy to do. However, the bigger story here is that we now have a wedding to plan for and I’m hoping that this could lead to some sort of a conclusion to the Margaret/Mordecai fiasco because weddings are usually a good way to bring back a lot of characters. This could lead to Mordy picking between CJ and Margaret down the line, but in the meantime relish this week’s episode because it was a good one.
