Slam Dunk

During a game of Hoop Jams 5000, Mordecai is asked by Margaret to make her a website. However, Muscle Man and High Five Ghost have booked the computer for a day, even though they are not using it and are instead playing basketball. This angers Mordecai and Rigby so much that they challenge Muscle Man and High Five Ghost to a basketball duel. It turns out Mordecai and Rigby are horrible basketball players, and when Mordecai says that basketball "sucks", the Basketball King comes, and he tries to train the two. Mordecai and Rigby turn out to be the worst basketball players ever, but they are given magic powers by the Basketball King. Mordecai and Rigby challenge Muscle Man to a game for the computer for life. However, High Five Ghost fakes an injury, and the Basketball King gives Muscle Man powers too. Before long, the game is tied 19-19, and Mordecai takes the ball and travels high up into outer space. Mordecai ends up making the dunk, but sees Margaret pass by and she tells him that Eileen already made the website for her.

Cartoon Network ordered six episodes on August 13, 2009.

Each show is composed of two 11-minute episodes.

Developed as an animated short for Cartoon Network's Cartoonstitute.

Two groundskeepers, Mordecai (a six-foot-tall blue jay) and Rigby (a hyperactive raccoon), are best friends who spend their days trying to entertain themselves by any means necessary, much to the displeasure of Benson (their boss, who is a gumball machine) and to the delight of Pops (an older, lollipop-headed gentleman). Their everyday pursuits often lead to things spiraling out of control and into the surreal: they open portals to other dimensions, summon demons via an '80s arcade game and accidentally use choreographed dance moves to send co-workers to the moon. All in a typical day's work on Regular Show.
