He comes in and… When he comes in he sounds like Luke Skywalker to us, but then he turns on the Skips voice and it's like "Wow, that's crazy!" So it's really neat to have him around and we're really glad that he wanted to do it. Quintel: You know it is because the voice – I mean when you watch the show it's so distinctive and so… gritty that you couldn't imagine that it comes out of him! But Mark is like such a pro. Is it weird to have Luke Skywalker as the voice of your cartoon yeti? Wired: Regular Show boasts a pretty unique collection of voice actors: you and Sam Marin voice a lot of the characters, but Skips is actually done by Mark Hamill. Wired: Which is an important role in and of itself. He doesn't say a whole lot, but he laughs and is always around for the supportive high five. Making jokes – cracking jokes at everybody's expense – and thinking he's funny, but everybody else just looks at him like, "Huh, what did he just say?" And High Five Ghost is kind of his sidekick. But Muscle Man's just like the guy that does his work, but at the same time is always calling out inappropriate stuff. I think they have a little bit more experience than them – they've been there longer at the park – but they're about equals as far as how they're employed at the park.
Quintel: Well, Muscle Man and High Five Ghost, they're kind of like the equivalent of Mordecai and Rigby. Wired: What about Muscle Man and fan-favorite High Five Ghost? This DVD collection does a fine job of highlighting all that's great about this wholly surreal property, but sadly – like the recent Adventure Time release – it's light on the bonus features. Obviously music plays a big part in the show's unique charm, as does an eclectic cast of characters ranging from the principal players Mordecai and Rigby, a sarcastic blue jay and mischievous raccoon, to an unflappable yeti and an angry anthropomorphic gumball machine. Stand-outs include the mystical musical debut "The Power," rock 'n' roll fantasy "Mordecai and the Rigbys," time-traveling radio freak-out "The Night Owl" and the positively infectious "This Is My Jam." It's a collection of a dozen episodes, six from each of the first two seasons.
Tuesday marks the release of Regular Show: Slack Pack, the series' DVD debut. Quintel, who also serves as part of the principal voice cast. It is, more to the point, the brainchild of writer-animator J.G. It's part classic animated slapstick, part new-school ensemble sitcom, and all weird. Trying to describe Cartoon Network's Regular Show is a bit of a task.
