Because it was iconic cringe. Mordecai entered the cringe hall of fame with that stunt. I love Mordo, but I and many others will never forget about that.
Dang, I wish I had done that, too. I forced myself to watch and listen to that catastrophe. Mordecai is so lucky that Muscleman and Starla didn't ask him to leave.
Yeah heās a good friend when it counts heās just, ABYSMAL at romance, like SO bad, it was a cringe move, but not something Iād break off the friendship over
Muscle Man probably thought that the humiliation of doing that was punishment enough. I know that if I tried some shit like that at a friend's wedding, I would feel like the world's biggest asshole. The cringe would definitely keep me up at night occasionally for the rest of my life.
Facts bro, Mordecai really shouldāve at least waited until after the wedding. But also considering heās the reason he ended up back with Starla and help him prep for the wedding is also some good reasons
Still makes mordicai a bad friend like all the times hes shitty to his best friend Rigby. The graduation episdoe especially like what a fucking tool. MM was pretty mad in the moment at the wedding and the look of shock in the aduience face was undeniable.
I meant like cutting contact or something. Mordecai took a moment at his friend's wedding and made it about himself thinking he was being deep, and all he accomplished was embarrassing himself and his girlfriend, getting dumped, and pissing everyone off. Someone pulled something like that at my wedding, I know for a fact I would never speak to them again.
If I remember correctly, they do become more cordial as the show went forward. They still fuck with each other but I recall it being less malicious. Episodes like Guys Night comes to mind.
I see that now, Iām getting downvoted for telling a few ppl in the comments to have the same energy for all the times Mordecai been there for muscle man like this one moment suppose to define his character and notice yall downvoters donāt have any rebuttal for what I said. Just haters lol
Y'all realize this is supposed to be "cringe" right? You're not supposed to support what Mordecai was doing. They even mention that in the episode. Not every character, even the protagonist, is supposed to be some perfect sunshine and rainbows type of person. That would be boring.
Yeah we know that. You don't always have to feel good watching a show. Certain types of bad emotions can be pretty unbearable and that's not enjoyable for everyone.
True, on the same note they could also have the same energy for the times heās being a good friend too muscle man instead of just rehashing his L moments š¤·šæāāļø. Donāt know why this have so much downvotes, truth hurts I guess š
Iām answering too your other reply as well but was talking about the quoted tweet that is one of many examples on why my opinion on the situation is different from
The majority and almost like you want me to have the same opinion as them. I know what Iām talking about, you the only one seem focused on the initial tweet and probably should take your own advice about reading the room cuz itās not really hard to grasp that concept
Lmao, what?? No, I wasnt understanding the correlation between the twitter screenshot and your post, mostly replies, but, Lemme try to get this, you're basically saying the moment wasn't that cringe for you, if so, then that's fine no one's forcing you to, its refreshing to see a different perspective. And 2. You mention how people dislike mordecai blah blah, and they don't care for his more redeeming qualities, right?? While you actively come for their perspective, and how the hate they give him is unwarranted(according to who tho?, you??), from this reply, you're a hypocrite in your own right then, no?? P.S. you could've gotten your point across without all this cause you seem to be confusing yourself as well...
First off never said what Mordecai did wasnt cringe, first sentence I said he shouldāve told CJ at a different time and place. The amount of hate he gets is unwarranted not because I said thatās part of me āreading the roomā when the topic is brought up and how im being a hypocrite for again āreading the roomā and going by what i see . Not really confusing myself thatās you projecting, I basically had to spell it out for you because you didnāt understand. FYI you obviously did too an extent cuz the same way yall to preach about me skipping posts and shit the same can be said about you lol, Tbh I really have no more to say to you good day
Itās not a matter of if MM and Starla were upset, itās the fact the Mordo had the fucking audacity to get up infront of a whole ass crowd and say that shit at a wedding. Doesnāt matter whoās wedding it was
Well by making a post about this moment, you have now invited the comment section to talk about it again, which includes talking about how cringe that moment was.
And thus the cycle continues
There are a finite number of thoughts to have about the scene and people talking about the scene. There are 8 billion people in the world and several million watched this show over time. Theres nothing robotic about the fact that there are a finite number of opinions to have on this one scene and reactions to it, which youve seen.
Dude, in a way youāre bringing it up by posting it on this sub. All the characters have more positives that outweigh the negatives. Just scroll past and enjoy the show.
I mean how else was I suppose to get my point across and not like Iām using it too shit on the guy like most ppl do, also nothing wrong with saying if youāre going to rehash someoneās L moments at least have the same energy when they do some good/noble š¤·šæāāļøš
I dont seem to understand your argument, the quoted tweet said "a characters cringe moment blah blah blah", key word being cringe, and someone replied with that, where does mordecais goodwill and nobility fit into that??
im sure you can start a positive tweet or there perhaps is one already and someone can quote one of mordecais noble deeds, heck even you can??
I donāt either. That moment was written to be cringy, itās an integral part of Mordecaiās character arc. The Twitter post brought up a characterās cringy moment, what in the hell else did OP expect.
Dude I literally started it out saying that mordecai shouldāve picked a different Time to break it off with CJ so why tf yall got a issue with me having a different opinion from the majority like im suppose to be a damn robot. Hell they was bringing up other stuff outside of the wedding to justify their hate for the guy But somehow saying have the same energy for him being supportive to Muscle Man got some ppl n a bunch š¤£
I still donāt get what the whole point of the Margaret-CJ love triangle was. They wasted all that time with it only for Mordecai to end up with some random bat girl during the final montage of the show. The writers confirmed in a Reddit AMA that Mordecai not ending up with either of them was supposed to show maturity and that he had moved on from all that, but it was still dumb IMO for the writers to have invested and wasted so much time into all of that only to ruin him and CJ and drop her from the series completely and for him to never end up with Margaret anyways.
You donāt always end up with the people you fight for, or want/strive for. Relationships no matter how they end will change you. I think you really answered your own question on why they did that. To show maturity and growth. Sometimes you need devastating blows to really grow as a person, and I think Regular show did a really great job showing that. Cj and Margaretās characters did what they needed to, the show isnāt about their stories just their involvement in the main casts stories.
Exactly, I loved CJ. Great character, but just because sheās great doesnāt mean she needed to be with emotionally unavailable Mordecai. She didnāt deserve him and neither did Margaret.
It still would've been nice if she was still in the show, and not just reduced to a single cameo, (The episode where the dome took off) and never shown again. Even if she wouldn't be friends with Mordecai, and like another user said, she still had ties with Rigby and Eileen, but she seemingly never talked to those two either even though Mordecai was the one who messed up.
She definitely couldāve still had a friendship behind the scenes with Rigby and Eileen, but CJ is a supporting character. Shes meant to support the main casts story, not necessarily have her own one. Her character did exactly what it needed to.
Yeah like it wasnāt Rigby and Eileenās faults that Mordecai was a huge Chad and tried to dump her in front of everyone at a wedding. She shouldāve stayed friends with them, or at the very least Eileen
Exactly. CJ and Eileen were great as friends, I hated that the writers were like āok letās have Mordecai break up with her and have her alienated from the groupā like tf!
i totally agree that the good really outweighs the bad when it comes to mordo's character, especially his relationship with muscle man.
however this is too famous. it's iconic. it's one of, if not the greatest fuck up of regular show history. i don't think it'll ever be let go.
Mordecai is only a slightly smaller man-child than Rigby who is (as shown multiple times) very capable of being a bad friend. Almost every character has that second quality, it aint that deep, but if we're being real, this is one of my auto-slip episodes because I don't do well with second-hand embarrassment lol.
That said, it's a cartoon b, irl this would be one of the most insane things you could do, and most people at this wedding would probably not be as deep with Mordo after this
It's still the most selfish thing Mordecai has ever done.
Like, it doesn't matter to me that MM and Starla forgive him AFTER the fact, the most horrifically self-centered thing you can ever do is hijack someone else's wedding day to make it about yourself. There are just some things that you never do, and this is on that list.
Not excusing it but making seem as if the itās the worst, unforgivable thing mordecai done is one hell of stretch and downplaying the main two ppl affected not being that mad is wild. I hope you have the same energy for all the times heās been there for Muscle Man lol
You and other ppl under this thread literally complaining at a stranger (me) and simply calling out what I peep isnt the same. Not the āI gotchaā like you hoped, good day broā¦
You're missing the point. You were on one platform. Saw posts and opinions you didn't like about a piece of media. Then headed to ANOTHER platform to post and complain about those opinions. You see how that's just weird, for one, and two, you're just strawmnaning people and using (rather weak) arguments to shoot down these invisible Twitter people we're not seeing. "Oh no, bro, why don't y'all give the same energy when Mordecai is good to Muscle Man" is such a weird fucking sentiment to have. It makes no sense on any logical level to use that as a way to make people see that they're... Too harsh on Mordecai? Fucking weird.
Nice try with the pseudo-intellectual bit, though.
Edit: damn he blocked me lmfao
I'm a newer viewer of the show. When I saw this episode, my assumption was that he was NOT going to break up with CJ. But CJ had been burned a couple of times already, and was understandably feeling insecure, and when he did this speech she assumed he was going to break up with her.
It's beside the point of the original post, but now I'm curious to know why the general consensus was that he was in fact wanting to drop her.
As cringe as this scene was, I wholeheartedly respect Muscle Man for how he responded. If it was the Muscle Man from the earlier seasons, he wouldāve probably beat the shit out of Mordecai for that.
That means the show did its job. 1) It had an iconic moment that permeated culture and made an impact on people 2) The lesson of the show is don't be like Mordocaei.
Iām sure a lot of ppl can relate too him and at least you said āthisā deserves all the hate but not towards Mordecai himself cuz others said the opposite.
I think because itās a more realistic real life faux pas people react to it differently that the clearly flagrant stuff Rigby is guilty of, but it is annoying that people donāt seem to judge them within context or allow Mordecai to be a good friend ānowā, like Rigby is considered.
Because itās a shit moment bro
I wouldnāt be friends with him if he did this. My best friend could save my life a thousand times, but if they make my wedding about themselves? Theyāre done
Well itās a good thing itās Muscle Man and heās a real one, itās definitely wouldnāt be worth being friends with someone with your kind of attitude lol.
Just make me and my wifeās day about you
Or flip it, I made YOUR day, with YOUR wife, about ME, super shitty thing to do, all for a girl who he was just kinda using
Mordecai shouldāve broke it off with CJ after the wedding but why tf yall so mad over it years later when Muscle man nor Starla holds it against him and he clearly learned from
His mistakeš. Im not going to cut my bro off over that especially if I know they was there for me at my best/worse moments and saved my life multiple times
Then itās clear you have no respect for your loved one or yourself, and itās clear Mordecei has no respect for Muscle Man in this moment, sure he has respect for him at other times, but not here, not in this moment, he chooses to make something special about himself, he chooses to use his best man speech privileges to make it about him
These characters are flawed, theyāre human (mostly, you get what I mean), they have emotions and strengths and weaknesses, theyāre good people sometimes and bad people sometimes, it would be unfair to the creators of this show if we ignore the bad parts and make them perfect and flawless
Nah ive seen this show at least 5 times ive been here ive seen a million people bitch and moan about it
And every single one is right. This scene is so well done with its awkwardness its makes you cringe even when you know its coming. Ill never get over how this scene makes me feel and im so glad the actually were like "bro wtf are you doing" instead of just clapping and accepting it like generic cartoon characters
People really need to let this go, I agree with you on that. But this was Muscle Manās WEDDING. He made it all about himself. But he did redeem himself with everything else he did for him.
Dude I'm pretty sure Mordecai will never let this moment go. We've all had moments not even a tenth of this moment that we dream about a decade later, so imagine how Mordecai is at night trying to kill this memory off for the hundredth time.
Bro, that scene HURTS to watch
It's not a bad quality scene, it's just one of if not THE biggest scene when it comes to cringing from the second hand embarrassment for me.
Would you hijack your friend's wedding to break up with someone, or how would you feel if you just went to support your friends just to have your partner publicly dump you in front of everyone.
no for obvious reasons to the first answer and secondly I would simply move on if that was the case, I definitely wouldnt keep bringing it up and act as if itās the worst thing you can do to someone especially if they learned from their mistake and understand they wasnāt in the right headspaceā¦
Now i actually dont really hate Mordecai like many others, but man there were moments that made me annoyed.
Like the time he willingly let Rigby out of his car when he wanted to give a sweater back to Margaret, even if she didnt seem all that worried about it.
"Its really annoying that people cringe at this moment thats supposed to be cringy" my guy, people are always going to bring up that scene. You know why? Because its awful. It hurts to watch, it hurts to think about. Most of the time I skip this episode upon rewatching just so I dont have to watch that scene
The quoted tweet asked if they ever cringed at something a character did and the person who posted that did it doesnāt matter if it was long ago what Mordecai did was shitty and cringy why are you complaining when a person answered someoneās question
Honestly. People act like this is the worst thing you could ever do. Was it great? No. Should Mordecai have picked a better time for this personal realisation? Absolutely. But in reality it was a couple minutes out of a day everyone including Mordecai spent fussing over, thinking about, and helping muscle man. Still indescribably cringe but on the list of shit in this show done to others this is pretty low imo
Two things can be true.
Mordecai can be a great friend while also being a terrible friend.
You are never consistently great to your friends and neither are they to you. Itās all part of the journey.
I hear ya but TB fair mordecai redeeming qualities heavily outweighs his bad qualities, ppl tend to use the 5-6 episodes worth of his cringe moments and make seems thatās all too his character. Hell in the last Season he supported pops and help him get through the whole evil pops thing. Helping the ultimate good against the ultimate evil with no hidden agenda is pretty redeeming quality.
Tbf if saw this go down in real life I would never shut up about it. I'll be 70 in a rocking chair telling my grandchildren about the time dude interrupted his best friends wedding to ask out his crush.
Honestly guy is a good friend when it matters the most. But his romantic choices are so bad that for the epilogue they had to establish he got together with someone totally different who he never meet before after all of this. Because fans honestly couldn't see the guy together with anyone he interacted with romantically.
I think Mordecai is a āreal oneā, if you will. To have the spine to pull a stunt like this just goes to show that Mordecai will put himself in the line for Muscle Man. A true friend š«”
āNo, the hate is not unwarrantedā Literally proving my point and you didnāt watch too much regular show if you can honestly say thatās the worse thing someone did on there. Sound like you just went thru my post just too nitpick to parts you didnāt like and saying the opposite lol
CJ go be aite, she didnt even bother to at least keep Eileen as a friend who did her nothing, she almost killed Margaret, Mordecai (again) and her dad over being insecured she even admitted it, let Mordecai fall off of a building and get jumped by some random guys leaving him in a full body cast just too prove how sorry he was for the whole Margaret thing. Sheās no damn saint š
Nah, it's justified. Mordecai did a really shitty thing and he made Muscle Man's wedding all about himself when he gave that speech. I'm pretty sure this is a universally hated moment throughout the Regular Show fanbase just because of how cringy it is.
Second hand embarrassment moment fr š«¢
Because it was iconic cringe. Mordecai entered the cringe hall of fame with that stunt. I love Mordo, but I and many others will never forget about that.
It was so bad I had to leave the room and just listen cause I couldn't bring myself to look.
Dang, I wish I had done that, too. I forced myself to watch and listen to that catastrophe. Mordecai is so lucky that Muscleman and Starla didn't ask him to leave.
Just leave? If I was in their place, Mordecai would leave the venue on an ambulance.
Based š
I really felt bad for CJ like Man why did he have to humiliate her in front of everyone like that?
Exactly what I was thinking I would never forgive him or any man who embarrassess me fat a wedding
I still don't understand why Muscle Man remained friends with Mordecai after that.
Watch episodes like Trucker Hall of Fame, Trailer Trashed, Dead at Eight, Muscle Woman, Last Meal and the End of Muscle Man. thatās probably why lol
Despite his fumble, Mordecai is the guy that Muscle Man knows to be very reliable.
Mordecaiās the type of guy you recruit for a GTA 5 heist
Unironically, I would absolutely want Mordecai and Rigby in a heist in GTA
Yeah heās a good friend when it counts heās just, ABYSMAL at romance, like SO bad, it was a cringe move, but not something Iād break off the friendship over
Muscle Man probably thought that the humiliation of doing that was punishment enough. I know that if I tried some shit like that at a friend's wedding, I would feel like the world's biggest asshole. The cringe would definitely keep me up at night occasionally for the rest of my life.
Oh for sure, I still remember cringy stuff I used to do as a kid, hijacking my friends wedding? I would NEVER live that down
Facts bro, Mordecai really shouldāve at least waited until after the wedding. But also considering heās the reason he ended up back with Starla and help him prep for the wedding is also some good reasons
It makes you wonder why Muscle Man didnāt tell him to stop
Still makes mordicai a bad friend like all the times hes shitty to his best friend Rigby. The graduation episdoe especially like what a fucking tool. MM was pretty mad in the moment at the wedding and the look of shock in the aduience face was undeniable.
Muscle Man knows that pulling a Mordecai is what Mordecai does best and he canāt help that
Mordecai can be generally reliable and trying to punish Mordecai in his wedding would probably further added to the distaste.
I meant like cutting contact or something. Mordecai took a moment at his friend's wedding and made it about himself thinking he was being deep, and all he accomplished was embarrassing himself and his girlfriend, getting dumped, and pissing everyone off. Someone pulled something like that at my wedding, I know for a fact I would never speak to them again.
Wait, were they friends ?
If I remember correctly, they do become more cordial as the show went forward. They still fuck with each other but I recall it being less malicious. Episodes like Guys Night comes to mind.
Twitter? This Reddit is no better
I see that now, Iām getting downvoted for telling a few ppl in the comments to have the same energy for all the times Mordecai been there for muscle man like this one moment suppose to define his character and notice yall downvoters donāt have any rebuttal for what I said. Just haters lol

Exactly. Theyāre all people and people have their low moments. What matters is if they bounce back, which Mordo did.
I don't think anyone thought the writers wanted people to agree with Mordecai like this is the intended audience reaction
Yeah we know that. You don't always have to feel good watching a show. Certain types of bad emotions can be pretty unbearable and that's not enjoyable for everyone.
it was a shitty thing to do and it will always be talked about, because it will always be fucked up. just mute and scroll.
True, on the same note they could also have the same energy for the times heās being a good friend too muscle man instead of just rehashing his L moments š¤·šæāāļø. Donāt know why this have so much downvotes, truth hurts I guess š

Itās not a matter of if MM and Starla were upset, itās the fact the Mordo had the fucking audacity to get up infront of a whole ass crowd and say that shit at a wedding. Doesnāt matter whoās wedding it was
That was bad and strange. But always reminding about that situation is even more strange
Well by making a post about this moment, you have now invited the comment section to talk about it again, which includes talking about how cringe that moment was. And thus the cycle continues
Umm Well I said give me your thoughts, good or bad not like I want ppl to be robots
There are a finite number of thoughts to have about the scene and people talking about the scene. There are 8 billion people in the world and several million watched this show over time. Theres nothing robotic about the fact that there are a finite number of opinions to have on this one scene and reactions to it, which youve seen.
because twitter is goddamn right this time
Not really when they constantly feel the need bring it back up but never bring up the times heās been supportive and a good friend too MM
Dude, in a way youāre bringing it up by posting it on this sub. All the characters have more positives that outweigh the negatives. Just scroll past and enjoy the show.

I still donāt get what the whole point of the Margaret-CJ love triangle was.

You donāt always end up with the people you fight for, or want/strive for. Relationships no matter how they end will change you. I think you really answered your own question on why they did that. To show maturity and growth. Sometimes you need devastating blows to really grow as a person, and I think Regular show did a really great job showing that. Cj and Margaretās characters did what they needed to, the show isnāt about their stories just their involvement in the main casts stories.
Thank you dude, I don't know why this is so hard for fans to understand. CJ was awesome but she wasn't the one for Mordecai and that's perfectly fine
Exactly, I loved CJ. Great character, but just because sheās great doesnāt mean she needed to be with emotionally unavailable Mordecai. She didnāt deserve him and neither did Margaret.
It still would've been nice if she was still in the show, and not just reduced to a single cameo, (The episode where the dome took off) and never shown again.

I feel like you're exaggerating a whole lot to justify this defensiveness.
Not really but youāre entitled to how you feel even if itās not case
You're literally complaining about strangers on Twitter.

no that episode is actually unwatchable I buried myself in a pillow by instinct
Do you relate to mordecai or something? Because this deserves all the hate it gets lmao
Iām sure a lot of ppl can relate too him and at least you said āthisā deserves all the hate but not towards Mordecai himself cuz others said the opposite.

Just make me and my wifeās day about you Or flip it, I made YOUR day, with YOUR wife, about ME, super shitty thing to do, all for a girl who he was just kinda using
Mordecai shouldāve broke it off with CJ after the wedding but why tf yall so mad over it years later when Muscle man nor Starla holds it against him and he clearly learned from His mistakeš. Im not going to cut my bro off over that especially if I know they was there for me at my best/worse moments and saved my life multiple times
Then itās clear you have no respect for your loved one or yourself, and itās clear Mordecei has no respect for Muscle Man in this moment, sure he has respect for him at other times, but not here, not in this moment, he chooses to make something special about himself, he chooses to use his best man speech privileges to make it about him These characters are flawed, theyāre human (mostly, you get what I mean), they have emotions and strengths and weaknesses, theyāre good people sometimes and bad people sometimes, it would be unfair to the creators of this show if we ignore the bad parts and make them perfect and flawless
Nah ive seen this show at least 5 times ive been here ive seen a million people bitch and moan about it And every single one is right. This scene is so well done with its awkwardness its makes you cringe even when you know its coming. Ill never get over how this scene makes me feel and im so glad the actually were like "bro wtf are you doing" instead of just clapping and accepting it like generic cartoon characters
People really need to let this go, I agree with you on that. But this was Muscle Manās WEDDING. He made it all about himself. But he did redeem himself with everything else he did for him.
Dude I'm pretty sure Mordecai will never let this moment go. We've all had moments not even a tenth of this moment that we dream about a decade later, so imagine how Mordecai is at night trying to kill this memory off for the hundredth time.
I guess what I like about Regular Show that even as am adult it's hard to get your shit together
It is very bad.
Twitter? Hell, *this sub* brought it up every other day for awhile lol
That was so bad
Bro, that scene HURTS to watch It's not a bad quality scene, it's just one of if not THE biggest scene when it comes to cringing from the second hand embarrassment for me.
Would you hijack your friend's wedding to break up with someone, or how would you feel if you just went to support your friends just to have your partner publicly dump you in front of everyone.
no for obvious reasons to the first answer and secondly I would simply move on if that was the case, I definitely wouldnt keep bringing it up and act as if itās the worst thing you can do to someone especially if they learned from their mistake and understand they wasnāt in the right headspaceā¦
This is how I described the presidential debate to my wife
i've had to pause my phone and throw it out of secondhand embarrassment
Now i actually dont really hate Mordecai like many others, but man there were moments that made me annoyed. Like the time he willingly let Rigby out of his car when he wanted to give a sweater back to Margaret, even if she didnt seem all that worried about it.
"Its really annoying that people cringe at this moment thats supposed to be cringy" my guy, people are always going to bring up that scene. You know why? Because its awful. It hurts to watch, it hurts to think about. Most of the time I skip this episode upon rewatching just so I dont have to watch that scene
Gotta say hes my least favorite character but it wouldn't be regular show wothout him.
Basically i would throw stuff and scream at the monitor.
That only happens cause he got caught up in the moment due to reading a letter that muscle man was too emotional to do himself, right?
The quoted tweet asked if they ever cringed at something a character did and the person who posted that did it doesnāt matter if it was long ago what Mordecai did was shitty and cringy why are you complaining when a person answered someoneās question
It's twitter dawg, you ain't ever not going to feel annoyed
right bro š¤£
It's up there as one of the most memorable Regular Show moments because of how bad Mordecai was doing this.
Thereās a reason why you can pull a mordecai
Honestly. People act like this is the worst thing you could ever do. Was it great? No. Should Mordecai have picked a better time for this personal realisation? Absolutely. But in reality it was a couple minutes out of a day everyone including Mordecai spent fussing over, thinking about, and helping muscle man. Still indescribably cringe but on the list of shit in this show done to others this is pretty low imo
Kinda Wish people would focus more on muscle dads letter, was a genuinely sweet moment
because theyāre right lmfao ? who cares if itās overdone itās THE perfect example for what the tweet says.
I donāt remember the episode Someone fill me in
I'm clueless as well
iāve never watched this moment and i never will
Two things can be true. Mordecai can be a great friend while also being a terrible friend. You are never consistently great to your friends and neither are they to you. Itās all part of the journey.
Context? Havenāt seen or remember this episode
They really need to redeem mordecai when he comes back in the new series
I hear ya but TB fair mordecai redeeming qualities heavily outweighs his bad qualities, ppl tend to use the 5-6 episodes worth of his cringe moments and make seems thatās all too his character. Hell in the last Season he supported pops and help him get through the whole evil pops thing. Helping the ultimate good against the ultimate evil with no hidden agenda is pretty redeeming quality.
Tbf if saw this go down in real life I would never shut up about it. I'll be 70 in a rocking chair telling my grandchildren about the time dude interrupted his best friends wedding to ask out his crush.
Honestly guy is a good friend when it matters the most. But his romantic choices are so bad that for the epilogue they had to establish he got together with someone totally different who he never meet before after all of this. Because fans honestly couldn't see the guy together with anyone he interacted with romantically.
Yeah the acolyte does that to you every couple minutes
Mordecai is a young man in his 20s. He's made plenty of mistakes, which add to his checkered personality, and I enjoy his character.
itās true
I think Mordecai is a āreal oneā, if you will. To have the spine to pull a stunt like this just goes to show that Mordecai will put himself in the line for Muscle Man. A true friend š«”
I've never watched regular show that much Can someone explain?
Mordecai hijacks Muscle Manās wedding to talk about his own love life and itās just kind of second hand embarrassment
It also ends up so badly for him that he has to dump his then girlfriend CJ, and heās an absolute train wreck in the next episode.
Wait isnāt the next episode the start of the new season? Where rigby has to rescue him? Bro i lowkey felt bad
Jesus
wtf? This was like the shittiest thing to do of all time. And that was the point. No, the hate is not unwarranted.
āNo, the hate is not unwarrantedā Literally proving my point and you didnāt watch too much regular show if you can honestly say thatās the worse thing someone did on there. Sound like you just went thru my post just too nitpick to parts you didnāt like and saying the opposite lol
He deserve all the hate he gets for doing CJ like that
CJ go be aite, she didnt even bother to at least keep Eileen as a friend who did her nothing, she almost killed Margaret, Mordecai (again) and her dad over being insecured she even admitted it, let Mordecai fall off of a building and get jumped by some random guys leaving him in a full body cast just too prove how sorry he was for the whole Margaret thing. Sheās no damn saint š
For once, Twitter is right lol
I mean itās true
Nah, it's justified. Mordecai did a really shitty thing and he made Muscle Man's wedding all about himself when he gave that speech. I'm pretty sure this is a universally hated moment throughout the Regular Show fanbase just because of how cringy it is.
