Regular Show/Awesome

As a rule, Regular Show relies heavily on the rule of "What Do You Mean It's Not Awesome?" in every episode. These are but a few examples.

"Future Mordecai: Wait, what are you going to be doing in the future?!
 * Saving the city from an antinuclear meltdown with a grilled cheese sandwich.
 * Death Punch vs. Death Block surrounded by molten lava.
 * A fight with a giant evil head (not GBF, 'Destroyer Of Worlds') from an arcade machine.
 * Then, right in the middle, when Mordecai risks his life to finish setting up the chairs, just to prove to Benson that he and Rigby are not slackers.
 * From the pilot: breaking a tie in rock-paper-scissors to defeat an Eldritch Abomination.
 * Mordecai's speech, followed by  in "Mordecai and the Rigbys".

Mordecai: I wouldn't want to ruin the surprise."

"Sean Szeles (storyboard artist and writer): I also wrote the songs that were featured in this episode and I thought they were going to be re-recorded by the composers, but they just kept my versions in. I just recorded everything in my apartment playing the different parts and threw a drum loop on there."
 * The song from the same episode, even though it was technically lip-synching.
 * That song's meta-awesome too:

"Benson: Hey !
 * Rigby taking down the
 * Rigby beating the shit out of the British taxi from "Ello Gov'nor"...
 * "They say this city's tough. But I'm tougher."
 * The fight against Snowballs the Ice Monster.
 * Rigby using his laser pointer as a machine gun on Peeps.
 * Pops' speech in Dizzy.
 * Mordecai and Rigby defeating GBF at "Broken Bonez" and getting the universal high score.
 * Mordecai, Rigby, and the rest of the gang defeating the humanoid TV with good ol' fashioned beat-em-up skills in "Rage Against the Television".
 * They knew his weakness: . Still, it was a pretty awesome fight.
 * During the fight "The Hammer" appears and everyone runs but Skips he just raises his fist and gets ready to rock, after he gets swatted aside (a Crowning Moment in of itself). Mordecai and Skips just get up to try and wail on him.
 * Not to mention that they basically
 * Benson's confronting  in the limo.
 * Benson's confronting  in the limo.



Benson: YOU'RE FIRED!!"

""STEP OFF.""
 * One word: "Utopia."
 * Mordecai pulling the Immunity Sword, which is immune to all rule changes, out of Hammerspace and stabbing the nefarious Game Master of the Realm of Darthon with it.
 * What makes this even better is that we've seen in episodes like this and 'But I Have a Recepit' that Mordecai isn't very good at using his imagination. (When asked to imagine the golf cart in the aformentioned episode, he could only remember the part they sat in.) The fact that he actually gets better at it than Rigby near the end is saying something.
 * The fact that he realized how to deal with all the rule changes (changing the rules himself) is pretty awesome in of itself.
 * At the end of the episode where Rigby is jinxed, Mordecai and Rigby say the same thing at once again. Mordecai gets jinxed. Rigby punches him when he talks, but it doesn't do anything. So he jabs Mordecai in the eye.
 * Benson arriving in "This Is My Jam" and pretty much saving the day by
 * AWW SNAP! AWW SNAP! Come to our macaroni party then we'll take a nap!
 * Putting a Jimmy Hart version of a Throbbing Gristle song in the episode's soundtrack.
 * Mordecai, Rigby, Muscle Man and Skips defeating the zombies with shot puts and javelins in "Grave Sights".
 * Special mention goes to Skips driving a vaulting pole through about four zombies and then beheading them by stomping their heads off. Skips has been taking some cues from the Brock Samson School of Kicking Ass.
 * "Ok, you undead creep. You've taken a lot from me, but if you think you're going to deprive me of my paid day off? You're sorely mistaken."
 * Pops  in "Really Real Wrestling".
 * Everything Pops does in that episode is awesome.
 * Skips arm-wrestling DEATH for Rigby's soul. Said arm-wrestling match opens up a black hole that spews out lightning.
 * Earlier in the episode, Skips calls out Rigby on cheating, then beats him at arm wrestling so hard he literally dies.
 * Muscle Man and High-Five Ghost Muscle Man gets another one at the end when he
 * In one episode, Mordecai and Rigby take care of a bunch of stranded baby ducks. However, a creepy man steals them, forcing the two and the ducks' mother to chase him. The creep takes out a Sword Cane to use on the three, when suddenly '', causing an atomic explosion.

"Rigby: SPLIT THIS."
 * 's Heroic Sacrifice in "Go Viral".
 * The finale of "Skunked" with The entire episode probably counts for the writers, as what could've been another simple comedy episode was actually rather dramatic and well done.

"Benson: YOU WANT IT?! FINE! TAKE IT THEN! *"
 * Earlier in the episode, when the Wereskunk is choking Rigby (turning into a hulking form in the process), Mordecai rushes in with a shovel and threatening to beat the tar out of him if he doesn't let Rigby go.
 * Skips gunning it in the golf cart to retrieve the cover of the Book of Records. Sounds pretty normal for Regular Show, right? Well you're forgetting that Skips did it with a broken leg.
 * Benson (also possibly all the characters) in "Karaoke Video" pulls a pretty good awesome moment after the tape lands near him and gets punched during the karaoke brawl by the Jerkass owner. Take into account that Benson was watching the entire fight up til now.

"Mordecai: Okay you lousy undead freaks-
 * Also from that episode, the whole cast pulling out some awesome fighting skills in the brawl, along with Muscle Man chugging on gravy while doing so, Pops knocking out a guy in one shot all to Pops singing Footloose.
 * Benson's mastery of Stick Hockey in the titular episode.
 * Mordecai and Rigby aren't slouches either, making it to the finals under their own power.
 * Rigby gets one in the Halloween Special by
 * If it was even Rigby to begin with...
 * Mordecai smashing the Jersey Devil-like creature, who was chasing them, with a lantern in the camping episode.
 * How does Regular Show make basketball awesome? By giving Mordecai, Rigby, and Muscle Man super basketball powers, taking to space, and having Mordecai win the game with a slam dunk, from space! A dunk so epic, it destroys the basketball court, and much of the surrounding area.
 * Benson got his second MoA of season 3 in "Cool Bikes" by attacking the judge and allowing Mordecai and Rigby to escape their certain deaths for being too cool.
 * Pops, Mordecai and Rigby sticking together in their crew and defeating an opposing rap crew with fine poetry, by praise. Great way to teach about moral victory.
 * The Disney Acid Sequence at the end of "Weekend at Benson's" was one for the animators.
 * In "Bet To Be Blonde" Rigby and Mordecai
 * Benson freaking exploding at Mordecai and Rigby during "Think Positive".
 * Mordecai punching Benson in "Eggsellent" after he made an insensitive remark about Rigby (who was in a coma).
 * Muscle Man's Unstoppable Rage in "Big Winner". The guy tears through wave after wave of Lottery Enforcement Officials, SWAT vans, even tanks. It would seem that he could even defeat all the officers if Mordecai and Rigby hadn't interrupted him.
 * The Party Tonight music video.
 * Mordecai and Rigby whopping up on Clorgvain, with the Fists Of Justice.
 * The fact that the entire fighting sequence in "Grave Sights" pretty much coincided and even at one point merged together with the movie. And these lines:
