Cartoon Network Slates Return of Regular Show

The beloved animated comedy Regular Show is returning this May with the new series Regular Show: The Lost Tapes on Cartoon Network and HBO Max.

Launching with a special half-hour episode on May 11 across Cartoon Network globally, the series will chronicle new adventures for Mordecai and Rigby, created by EP JG Quintel and produced by Cartoon Network Studios.

Vanessa Brookman, Warner Bros. Discovery’s GM, for international kids, animation and franchise, said: “Regular Show has always been a cultural lightning bolt, defined by bold humour, unforgettable characters and a distinctive visual style. Its return underscores our commitment to premium animation with global appeal. With Regular Show: The Lost Tapes, JG Quintel and the team honour the original’s legacy while introducing something fresh. We’re excited to bring Mordecai, Rigby, and the gang back to audiences worldwide, while welcoming a new generation of fans.”

Sam Register, president of Warner Bros. Animation, Cartoon Network Studios and Hanna-Barbera Studios Europe, added, “Thank goodness JG works harder than Mordecai and Rigby, or we might have had to wait another nine years to see these characters again. With Regular Show: The Lost Tapes, JG and his incredible team have delivered the same absurd humour and genuine heart that made Regular Show a classic. We’re excited to welcome fans back to the park.”

Quintel noted, “It’s been so much fun working with everyone on more Regular Show. We’re just making stuff for ourselves and trying to crack each other up. It reminds me a lot of the original run. I can’t wait for everyone to see it.”

Fans will also be able to access a new custom takeover in Cartoon Network: Game On!, the network’s popular Roblox metaverse experience.
