Does it bother anyone how much the R&M fandom was willing to cast away Justin Roiland and pretend he wasn't a big contributing factor to the humor and funniest improv bits of the show? So many people say, "I don't even notice he's gone", but he's been slowly disappearing since around season three when the show drastically shift in writing style and stopped being nonsense sci-fi parody. It's definitely noticeable the difference in quality from season 1 to current season.

I'll be honest, I though the writing was still alright for what it is, but the new voices are fricking awful. They're not only mediocre, but the delivery just isn't good. Haven't laughed once this season.
Than stop watching it.

Not me.

He says as he posts a Doc & Mharti poster.
Go back, homosexual. This isn't your hugbox.
Go back where? And go frick yourself all I’m saying is if you’re not laughing at a comedy than stop watching it you sheep.
I think it's because the show got bad. I mean, it was only good for one, maybe two seasons. After that it went from mediocre to bad. People haven't noticed that he's gone because ultimately the show's at its same level of mediocre quality where most fans just keep watching out just because it's something to watch and not because it's the hottest new comedy series. You're probably right that his original style or influence was being lost around season 3, but he still voiced on the show, and it wasn't like it was getting any better with him working on it. So ultimately, it doesn't make much of a difference to most of the fans. Some people really hate the voices like this guy but I've also seen a lot of others say they can't really tell the difference outside of small moments where Rick yells or something.
According to Harmon, Justin actually did stop being very involved in the show around that point, outside of voice acting. I do t think Harmon realizes that validates the theory that the show got worse with less involvement from Justin,but just happened way before he got cancelled.
I think it's crazy how fast people who were his friends or co-workers were to turn their backs on him.
He was barely there and Dan and others began hating and having issues with him since season 3.
But they were happy to leech off of him
Roiland was a useful butthole. If he was loved, they would have closed ranks. If he was still useful, they would have closed ranks. His problem was that his problematic behavior was far outweighing his usefulness and nobody really liked him. He overplayed his hand.
Six episodes in and the show went "we can frick up the entire planet who fricking cares nothing matters".
It turns out when you push the idea of nothing mattering and everyone and everything being replacable and you should just go with it, it doesn't breed a lot of loyalty to any one particular person behind the scenes in its audience.

aw geeze rick
Yes it bothers me, but no it doesn't surprise me. People are just rotten now and this is literally going to become precedent among animation studios that you can indeed hijsck series from creators and everyone will be cool with it.
Yes Justin was a creep but everyone has skeletons in their closets and even much less serious social taboos are enough to get you socially ousted today.
I genuinely expect this to happen more and more frequently over shit like a creator saying "moronic" on social media a decade or two ago. The slippery slope is fricking real.
I dislike how R&M can't make up its mind with having a story or not, and with its character. Every episode the characters are different people, except maybe Rick. It doesn't even know if it wants to have "character development" or not.
I also hate how now it's just "trope but subverted" over and over, and then just straight up parody of different movies (and the reliance on references) .
it's funny watching the progression from
>show actively makes fun of people who want huge story arcs and DEEP LORE behind everything
to
>show does DEEP LORE episodes occasionally but refuses to turn them into long-running arcs
to
>show does long-running arcs with DEEP LORE but occasionally includes a quip about how cliche it is so you know the writers are still totally cool and above it all
More freaked out that you can genuinely be ruined by unfounded accusations than anything else.
Justin In specific probably deserved this outcome, but I'd that always going to be the case?

Selection bias. The ones who have stayed with this show either genuinely don't have a problem with what it has become, or need to rationalize it.
The objective truth is that the show shed a bunch of viewers in a steady decline, and will never reach the same highs again. That's what matters, not the opinions of those who have Stockholm syndrome because they build their entire identity around being part of a cartoon fandom.
nobody cares about this show. This shit came out like 7 years ago. move on
