This is definitely the standout episode of the season thus far. I enjoyed the tongue-in-cheek satire on the American military and the public's perception of them via the astronauts. There are just as many quotable lines as ever. But I think the main reason this was the best of the season thus far for me was the gradual/grounded manner in which the premise evolved. It helped that Rigby's pride in his lying "prowess" had at least some basis in reality. The competition between him and Mordecai felt like it had actual weight, and as the stakes continued to mount the trading of lies rapidly compounded to a satisfying climax. The conclusion was wonderfully ironic and genuinely clever. Easy 10/10, the most substantial episode yet.

I'm going so hard on regular show! Binged it 2 times and now watching it again with my boy! Got him so hooked he wants a tattoo of rigbey!! We are halfway somewhere begin season 5 so he got hooked fast!!
I felt totally nerd for having a delightfully evening of rating the episodes. Loving to see that there are lots of fans makes me embrace my inner nerd cuz I am not alone. Also loving to see that there is difference in taste cuz for me this was the last favorite this Season but the other review over here makes the episode better cuz made me see it from another side!!
Jolly good show from all the sides!! :)
