“ | STOP TALKING! | „ |
~ Rigby's famous catchphrase. |
“ | Don: What's going on with us? You never give me some sugar. Did I... do something? Rigby: Yeah, you were BORN! |
„ |
~ Rigby's most infamous quote. |
Rigby is one of the two main protagonists (alongside Mordecai) of Regular Show, as well as the main protagonist of Regular Show: The Movie. Rigby is a twenty-three-year-old raccoon and Mordecai's best friend. He also made his debut in the original Pilot episode working as a groundskeeper of the park.
While Rigby is one of the main characters, he has done many immoral and unacceptable acts throughout the series, but he has done things to fix his mistakes as well. As the series progressed, Rigby has gotten less and less immature and has become more of a true friend and has even become a loving and devoted boyfriend and future husband to Eileen. Eventually, he matures to the point where he retains little, if any of his more immature traits.
He was voiced by William Salyers, who also voices Doctor Octopus in Insomniac's Marvel's Spider-Man video game series.
His Evil Ranking[]
What Makes Him Heinous?[]
In General[]
- While other Villains like Anti-Pops did attempt to do much worse, Rigby had much lower resources than them.
Season 1[]
- In "The Power," he steals the titular keyboard from a wizard who was peeing in the bushes and uses it to send a bunch of stuff to the moon including a monster and accidentally sends Skips to the moon, almost getting him killed by the monster he sent to the moon.
- In "Just Set Up The Chairs," he ignores Skips' note advising them not to connect the red wire to the blue wire, which ends up releasing the Destroyer of Worlds, endangering the park's visitors and killing the special entertainment people.
- In "Death Punchies," he steals a Death Kwon Do move from the sensei and after learning the Death Punch, he punches Muscle Man, Fives, Skips, and Pops, and other innocent civilians in the park. He then tries to use his Death Punch to kill Mordecai all because he wanted to be Player 1.
- In "Free Cake," he interrupted Skips ritual which causes him to lose his immortality, nearly killing him. When The Guardians of Eternal Youth notices the cake he and Mordecai had for his birthday and wanted it for themselves in exchange for restoring Skips eternal youth, Rigby initially acted stubborn and showed more concern over the cake than for Skips life.
- In "Grilled Cheese Deluxe," he steals and lies about having Benson's sandwich. He and Mordecai then lie about being astronauts and cause the antimatter to go unstable, putting many lives at risk.
- In "Don," he shows hatred towards his brother Don (despite Don being nothing but nice to Rigby) and causes the park to be audited after he made Don leave.
Season 2[]
- In "It's Time," he asks Margaret out on a date just to spite Mordecai, which then results in himself being accidentally killed in a fit of rage by Mordecai, then later revived.
- In "Appreciation Day," he and Mordecai write lies in the Book of Park Records and create Snowballs the Ice Monster, who begins to destroy the park.
- In "Jinx," he uses a lethal technique to unjinx himself by saying his name 3 times to a mirror, which causes a mirror monster version of him named Ybgir to start attacking people and turning them into monsters.
- In "Do Me a Solid," he humiliates Mordecai by making him do 10 solids for him, even making him do one which was incredibly embarrassing that it put everyone's lives at risk due to Mordecai's justifiable refusal.
Season 3[]
- In "Bet to be Blonde," he cheats on a bet with Mordecai, leading to him having to teach Rigby a lesson by hanging out with an evil society of blonde men, which nearly gets them both killed.
- In "Skips Strikes," he bets the souls of his friends for a bowling ball filled with souls.
- In "Fortune Cookie," he swaps Benson's fortune, which causes Benson to have the worst luck. Because of this, Benson plays cards with a warlock and wagers the park. The warlock won the park and put everyone in it in danger.
- In "Diary," Skips tells Mordecai and Rigby to not open their eyes while doing the ritual for Margaret's diary. Rigby opens his eyes anyways and it causes the guardian of Margaret's secrets to try and destroy them.
- When telling secrets in "Diary" to defeat the guardian, he mentions to having stolen his neighbor's bike and throwing it off the roof in his youth.
Season 5[]
- In "Wall Buddy," he buys the titular product because he did not want to clean up the mess in the room, which then ends up destroying not only the house, but the entire park.
- In "Saving Time," he and Mordecai change all the clocks in the park and Benson's apartment to the wrong time, which then leads to both locations to sink into the ocean, nearly drowning everyone in the process.
Season 8[]
- In "Mordeby and Rigbecai," after Mordecai and Rigby messed around with the teleportation machine, it caused them to switch bodies and Rigby refuses to give Mordecai back his body and starts causing trouble around the park.
Regular Show: The Movie[]
- He faked a college rejection letter for Mordecai, with this being the reason they both work at the park and why everything in the series happens. Not only that, but he and Mordecai also created the Timenado in an attempt to make a time machine and Rigby ruined Mr. Ross's volleyball game, turning him into the villain he is.
What Makes Him Inconsistent?[]
- He is On & Off and commits multiple heroic acts like:
- Mellowing out in the later seasons and becoming a little less immature.
- Helping Mordecai get over his depression from Margaret rejecting him.
- Taking part in the battle of Exit 9B to save the park.
- Stopping Mr. Ross from destroying time, and later apologizing to him for ruining his volleyball game.
- Destroying the Timenado with Mordecai and saves the universe.
- Apologizing to Mordecai for faking his rejection letter.
- Helping in the battle against Anti-Pops.
- He fully redeemed himself at the end of the series.
- He has a tragic backstory, as he was constantly mistreated by his father, who idolized and favorited Don more than his older son, along with Rigby having little to no friends when he was little.
- He is very comedic and isn't taken seriously most of the time, such as the reoccurring gag of him getting punched by Mordecai for almost anything, sleeping in class about getting a diploma, and sending Skips to the moon instead of his room.
- He cares about his friends, especially Mordecai.
- There are times where he feels remorse for his actions, most notably regretting forging Mordecai's rejection letter, saying "Sorry, Mordecai." and attempting to outright commit suicide, by flying into the sun when it briefly ended their friendship, which further shows he does care for Mordecai.
- Even though when Rigby did type a lie letter to Mordecai was the worst thing he have done, showing remorse while typing the letter is still far too redeeming.
