True. I don't even mind women writers per se, but this whole thing about NEEDING women writers in the writer's room... Why? Why change the formula that led to two great seasons?
>Why? Why change the formula
It's how feminists/progressives/marxists/commies take over everything and then destroy it.
Step 1. Previous statements of some of the higher up are used to accuse them of an ist or ism by various leftist outlets. In order to appease them, they agree to take a token amount of some special protected group and put them into positions of power. In China this is just a member of the communist party, but in the west this is a woman or member of a "marginalized group".
Step 2. Once in a position of power this person proceeds to move in more like themselves, continuing to quietly climb until enough of them are on staff for the next step:
Step 3. Demand the removal of those who were originally in charge, generally through "outrage" at one supposed scandal or another. It could be a metoo accusation or crude tweets made eight years ago, either way their numbers are sufficient that if their demands aren't met the show will shut down, so the original people in charge are kicked out and they now have complete control over it.
Step 4. It now exists solely as propaganda and shits out this inferior product that does nothing but advance it's politics and attack anyone who falls into the categories of "straight, white, male conservative or christian" continuing on this riding it like a skinsuit until it's cancelled or they go bankrupt.
Step 5. Depending on the type of business it was the people who destroyed it either retire comfortably with golden parachutes or simply move on to another company to repeat the process all over again.
Remember during the GG days how people would gloat about some fat feminist getting fired from some magazine, and then within days they'd start a new job in another related industry doing the same shit but more quietly?
I remember when the first couple episodes of season 1 released and it was the coolest shit for a whole summer
it was universally seen as a 'cool show' throughout season 1, obscenely high ratings on IMDb,
and then Dan Harmon or female writing shoe-ins made it into another boring family drama and it TANKED
I'm not even exaggerating, I was laughing until my sides hurt at every single season 1 episode with my older brother. Once season 2 started and we gave two episodes a shot we were both left with mild chuckles at best, we just never bothered afterwards.
Can’t be. 100 episodes were paid for by Warner bros back in season 3. Hence why they can afford to pump out shit without regard for quality. They’re uncancellable. What’s the company gonna do? Pay them the money without getting the content?
They already paid them and have a contract. I don’t think you understand the situation. They have to pay the money either way. There is no scenario where they would choose to pay the money and not get new episodes
They can reneg, but they still have to pay them. They'll limp the show to 100 episodes so it can reach syndication and be done. Only ATHF and Robot Chicken have more than 100 episodes, so they will absolutely stop there.
The problem is many viewers still don't realize Roiland was fired. He's gone! This is why it's actually bad thing that the new voice actors are so indistinguishable from Roiland.
I laughed once in this show, the first episode, because the joke 'they're are robots, they're bureaucrats' touched my that-time resentment of my people i knew who were making money in their bureaucrat job. So it shouldn't really count so 0 times really
I wouldn’t put too much stock in these scores right now. Currently the worst chuds in the universe are gonna be carpet bombing it down because of Justin not being there. Not saying there aren’t legit criticisms of the first episode but rating systems like this are notoriously easy to warp when there’s politics involved
You’re brown and stupid. I’m white and married and have children and am, and will always be infinitely richer, more successful, fulfilled, complete and happier than you.

It's like an onion, it has layers. Underneath those layers are hidden meanings, and underneath those meanings are more layers.
the pickle represents the symbolic phallus lost after his wife died
it represents Rick hopeless attempts to regain control over his life only to fail and make it childish, so there are no failure conditions
>she immediately self-inserts as a supergenius Mary Sue
Rick is already a supergenius self-insert Mary Sue, she's his mirror image, she's him but healthy, the fact that you missed this proves seething about women is more important to you than actually paying attention.
>Rick is already a supergenius self-insert Mary Sue,

Him but healthy? Doesn't she also specialize in shit eating? >the fact that you missed this proves seething about women is more important to you than actually paying attention.
You wrote this episode didn't you
>No one said he wasn't.
Then it's not a valid complaint of any other character in the show. >Him but healthy? Doesn't she also specialize in shit eating?
Yeah, an obvious metaphor for the consumers of the show. Rick spews out the shit for the audience to eat, so his opposite is someone trying to fix his behaviors, and stop the audience from eating shit. >You wrote this episode didn't you

How are the public going to decide if you have good taste?
>Rick is already a supergenius self-insert Mary Sue
no he isn't.
rick & morty are a parody of doc & marty from back to the future, rick quite literally isn't a "self-insert" for anyone
>rick & morty are a parody of doc & marty from back to the future, rick quite literally isn't a "self-insert" for anyone
Incorrect, Rick and Mory are a parody of "Doc and Mharti", a series of animated shorts by Justin Roiland that were themselves a parody of Doc and Marty from Back to the Future. The distinction is important, Harmon was brought on to adapt Roiland's already existing parody, he didn't make the original parody himself.
Rick is Dan Harmon's self insert; he sees himself as a misunderstood, alcoholic genius who has the potential to do almost anything of he would just get out of his own way, but he's also so neurotic and self-loathing that he understands it's pathetic that he sees himself that way. Hence Rick; a godlike being that can do anything he needs to within the narrative, constantly references the fact that he is in fact inside a story, but is so up his own ass that he can't actually accomplish anything. This is Dan's perfect summary of himself.
Nobody can self-insert as Rick because what he does is humanly impossible. It's like self-inserting as Iron Man or Superman, which is impossible because they are abstractions/idealizations. A self-insert would be a somewhat average person, so Morty is more of a self-insert than Rick
>Nobody can self-insert as Rick because what he does is humanly impossible.
That's a stupid sentence, the most common criticism of self-insert characters is that they're overly powerful or capable of anything, which a normal person isn't. If I wrote a DC comic where someone that looked and talked exactly like me showed up and beat up Superman, that would obviously and correctly be called a self-insert character.
Plus, Harmon is a writer, which means he has near limitless power over the events of the story. Rick is a character that knows he's in a story, and also has near limitless power within the story. Perfect self-insert.
Rick is a depressive suicidal old man with no goal or purpose no values or meaning or anything he does. The only way you'd self-insert as him is if you want to die, in which case you're inserting for the suicidality not the godlike powers.

>Rick is a depressive suicidal old man with no goal or purpose no values or meaning or anything he does
Yep, sounds like Dan Harmon at his worst, a man that has struggled with depression his entire adult life and spoken openly about it many times. Seriously, learn anything anything the actual guy we're talking about before you decide whether or not I'm wrong.
>she immediately self-inserts as a supergenius Mary Sue
Rick is already a supergenius self-insert Mary Sue, she's his mirror image, she's him but healthy, the fact that you missed this proves seething about women is more important to you than actually paying attention.
>supergenius Mary Sue >literally just a psychologist
but also, what fricking asian self inserts as a psychotherapist?
Also when you have a writing team it really doesn't matter who gets credited for an individual episode. All it means is she had a self insert as the therapist so they gave her the grunt work for the episode.
season 3 was worth it for the vendicators alone. the web series was incredible
but the citadel of ricks episode was an achievement. you get world building done through a slice of life premise and you get the twilight zone horror of the simple rick payoff.
The mcnugget sauce sperg out combined with the "to be fair" copypasta unironically killed the show and forever associated it with fedora-tipping pseuds flailing on the ground over a shitty dipping sauce promotion.
Justin was rightfully blacklisted for being an insufferable autist to work around, him being innocent about the allegations against him is irrelevant. Hopefully he never finds work in the industry again. Autistic people shouldn't be allowed in the workforce.
theres way too many episodes that are structured like >"hey rick u need to do the thing" >"i am too smart to do the thing *BURP* its beneath me" >wacky adventure >ends up doing the thing after all
I like the episodes where Morty wants to do a thing and Rick says he's stupid for wanting to do a thing, but after negging Rick obliges and then Morty screws up and Rick saves the day via some anti-doing the thing, that actively mocks Morty. I love every episode like that.
no, this anon is right,
[...]
it was universally seen as a 'cool show' throughout season 1, obscenely high ratings on IMDb,
and then Dan Harmon or female writing shoe-ins made it into another boring family drama and it TANKED
I'm not even exaggerating, I was laughing until my sides hurt at every single season 1 episode with my older brother. Once season 2 started and we gave two episodes a shot we were both left with mild chuckles at best, we just never bothered afterwards.
I can't think of another thing that went from "cool" to "the lamest thing ever" so quickly and that includes other TV shows or bands or whatever. Season two was a lot weaker but I blame the embarrassing fanbase that emerged. That Szechwan Sauce fiasco was a real eye opener.
roiland, harmon and the nicholas (the guy who wrote the sperm episode) all wrote this one, so roiland did something and even that could not save us from the autistic frick who thought that the sperm episode was good enough to become an actual thing
Railond and Harmon didn't write the episode. These are creator credits. Chase has a writting credit under every Sopranos episode, doesn't mean he wrote every single one of them.
imdb just adds justin roiland and dan harmon to the writers credits for every episode, even if they didn't write shit.
Nick Rutherford wrote the episode.
MY appeal is that Roiland was gross in real life and liked drinking, acted like a pig but was true to himself, knowing that, enjoying his voice via rick and morty was 100% of the affinity I had with the show
Holy shit if it managed to maintain high scores even throughout the utter dogshit that was season 4 then this latest season must be fricking horrendous.
This show was so much better when it was trying to just be wacky sci fi adventures with only rick and morty which was the original vision Roiland had for the show. Meanwhile Harmon wanted the show to get serious and self inserted his marriage/relationship drama with the beth and jerry plots nobody cares about while the feminist writters made summer a more main character and inserted dumbass incest jokes and plots nobody likes.
This show is gonna be viewed as the biggest waste of potential of the 2010s, with only season 1 (and maybe a few episodes from season 2 but that's debatable) being considered worth watching
>waste of potential
This is the problem, it didn't fricking have any potential. It was funny because it was a wacky parody show with no rules, this cannot work as a long form story. Every time they have to tone down the crazy shit to give the show stakes, it feels forced because we know Rick can do anything. But any time Rick does anything that isn't a punchline, it feels pointless because there are no stakes. It should have stayed as a series of animated shorts, trying to make a multiple season narrative out of this was doomed to fail from the beginning.
So you enjoy enjoying nothing?
If you're gonna give me the list of things you enjoy to disprove me, don't care, won't read. Just wanted to let you know, you're pathetic.
So did anyone read the negative critic reviews that got the audience and critic scores so close? One says the polar opposite of what this thread is saying, one says "it's been growing increasingly stale with each season", and one just says "meh."
>Alison Foreman, indieWire TOP CRITIC
Season 7 moves in the opposite direction -- re-centering Rick and Morty as the leads without seriously evolving them and once again sidelining Summer and the Beths to give Jerry more time on screen. >Jake Kleinman, Inverse TOP CRITIC
It’s become increasingly clear that the once-brilliant sci-fi cartoon has run out of ideas, and we may be at the very start of a long and painful slog to the finish — even if there’s still some fun to be had along the way. >Alberto Carlos, Espinof
The episodes are fun, slightly clever but wildly uneven. I don't know, however, if this may speak more of the classic truncation of this comedy's own ambition or of failing to find a new direction. [Full review in Spanish]
oh boy, just watched it and ahahahahaHOLY SHIT WHAT THE FRICK WAS THAT? I didnt expect to see a lowpoint that makes Season 5 look good in comparison, seriously when they met Jackman and they suddenly started having this drawn out back and forth you usually see on those shitty Netflix cartoons with a shoestring budget? They never did this before and god it was painful, its such a telltale sign that a cartoon series is way past its time when they start using celebrities not as cameo voices or little side-characters but as an essential part of the plot.
>its such a telltale sign that a cartoon series is way past its time when they start using celebrities not as cameo voices or little side-characters but as an essential part of the plot.
true
The constant meta jokes attacking the viewers for wanting a more classic Rick and Morty season 3 onward is pretty grating. The biggest one I can think of is the Nazi Morty pulling a gun on Rick and screaming "you will go where I tell you to go!"
the episode was boring and bad but I was really impressed with the voice casting. it's very, very actually good. especially if you compare to the new season of Futurama where the cast did not change but merely got older — they sound old and it comes through and it's very distracting. with respect to the casting in Rick and Morty, I wonder if they're using AI to massage the recordings at all.
I haven't watched R&M since season 4, and then I showed a friend an episode from season 1 and realized the show isn't even remotely the same humor anymore
Watching the first season is nuts because it's funny and fast paced, the current show is a bunch of unfunny dialogue with the occasional action sequence
I'd imagine people who who defend justin don't support the replacement, people who hate him probably don't want to support the show at all, kinda seems like a no win scenario.
>both normie groups hate the show
>no win scenario
that's a win win, baby
I mean for the long term health of the show.

Congratulations, you are smarter than a television executive. Although I guess at this point adult swim have nothing else to fall back on

Even the soicuck critics are panning it. It's just awful.
That episode was done when Roiland was still in charge, brainlet
But Harmon said Roiland did no writing for this season
justin roiland hasn't been in the writer's room since season 3
And it’s been in a sharp decline since season 3. What’s your point?
I thought Roiland was already terminated
What in the frick is he wearing?
He's a madlad
You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like

This episode was so reliant on pop culture reference it was pathetic
my biggest issue with the show besides lazy self referentialism is the lazy pop culture reference.
the star wars lightsaber drop last season was almost distractingly underbaked.
voltron was fine bc the concept was there. but the half assed 'anime' representations were shit. why even do anime if you arent going to do anime?
die hard was fine, it was the b story, but you'd think they would have gone a little more high concept with the animation or something
predator in a season opener is beyond terrible
>why even do anime if you arent going to do anime?
it was supposed to be a exagerated parody, plus they actually did anime with the two crows stuff
I just think the bar has been raised so many times when it comes to anime parodies that they have to have some depth to be worth the time.
So that's why the show started to suck.
Rick and morty was good for 2 seasons and then they let women in the writing room and it became the most bland boring shit ever
True. I don't even mind women writers per se, but this whole thing about NEEDING women writers in the writer's room... Why? Why change the formula that led to two great seasons?
>Why? Why change the formula that led to two great seasons?
it's a shame
>Why? Why change the formula that led to two great seasons?
Because the "powers that be" don't view it as 'changing the formula' .
"Oh we didn't have enough coffee cups in the employee lounge? Go buy more."
"Oh we have to follow new rules about including more female writers? Whatever. Just do it. Back to business as usual".
They expect your show or movie to be able to cope with some additional women or forced diversity.
>Why? Why change the formula
It's how feminists/progressives/marxists/commies take over everything and then destroy it.
Step 1. Previous statements of some of the higher up are used to accuse them of an ist or ism by various leftist outlets. In order to appease them, they agree to take a token amount of some special protected group and put them into positions of power. In China this is just a member of the communist party, but in the west this is a woman or member of a "marginalized group".
Step 2. Once in a position of power this person proceeds to move in more like themselves, continuing to quietly climb until enough of them are on staff for the next step:
Step 3. Demand the removal of those who were originally in charge, generally through "outrage" at one supposed scandal or another. It could be a metoo accusation or crude tweets made eight years ago, either way their numbers are sufficient that if their demands aren't met the show will shut down, so the original people in charge are kicked out and they now have complete control over it.
Step 4. It now exists solely as propaganda and shits out this inferior product that does nothing but advance it's politics and attack anyone who falls into the categories of "straight, white, male conservative or christian" continuing on this riding it like a skinsuit until it's cancelled or they go bankrupt.
Step 5. Depending on the type of business it was the people who destroyed it either retire comfortably with golden parachutes or simply move on to another company to repeat the process all over again.

Noooo akkkshully it got bad after 3 minutes and 12 seconds into the first episode of the pilot. Check out how superior my tastes are.

the pickle represents the symbolic phallus lost after his wife died
it represents Rick hopeless attempts to regain control over his life only to fail and make it childish, so there are no failure conditions
>being in female writer
>she immediately self-inserts as a supergenius Mary Sue who PWNS Rick
She's now the head writer for She-Hulk, by the way.
That won an Emmy. I shit you not. Its like one of those "the left can't meme" parodies and it won an Emmy.
>That won an Emmy.
Why am I not surprised
why do you refuse to admit it was good? it won a fricking award, you're THAT stubborn.
Because it wasn’t good. Marvel movies have won awards. Doesn’t mean it’s good. Just means that the masses are stupid.
>She-Hulk
quality show
yes
Kys footy
>Its like one of those "the left can't meme" parodies
huh, it really is
words words words
>she immediately self-inserts as a supergenius Mary Sue
Rick is already a supergenius self-insert Mary Sue, she's his mirror image, she's him but healthy, the fact that you missed this proves seething about women is more important to you than actually paying attention.
>Rick is already a supergenius self-insert Mary Sue,
No one said he wasn't.
>she's his mirror image, she's him but healthy,
Him but healthy? Doesn't she also specialize in shit eating?
>the fact that you missed this proves seething about women is more important to you than actually paying attention.
You wrote this episode didn't you
>No one said he wasn't.
Then it's not a valid complaint of any other character in the show.
>Him but healthy? Doesn't she also specialize in shit eating?
Yeah, an obvious metaphor for the consumers of the show. Rick spews out the shit for the audience to eat, so his opposite is someone trying to fix his behaviors, and stop the audience from eating shit.
>You wrote this episode didn't you
I wish, I've never been paid to write anything.
So you're not a woman, just a white knight? Damn. Well maybe after enough gin & tonics I won't care anymore.
>white knight
I'm not defending the writer, I don't even know who we're talking about. I just don't agree that this character is a problem, it works within the show and had an impact for a reason.
it had an impact because it didn't work and that they didn't realize that in the writer's room was a terrible omen
You didn't like it, that doesn't mean it didn't work.
it's not necessary, I just happen to have good taste
According to you.
let's let the public decide
How are the public going to decide if you have good taste?
>Rick is already a supergenius self-insert Mary Sue
no he isn't.
rick & morty are a parody of doc & marty from back to the future, rick quite literally isn't a "self-insert" for anyone
>rick & morty are a parody of doc & marty from back to the future, rick quite literally isn't a "self-insert" for anyone
Incorrect, Rick and Mory are a parody of "Doc and Mharti", a series of animated shorts by Justin Roiland that were themselves a parody of Doc and Marty from Back to the Future. The distinction is important, Harmon was brought on to adapt Roiland's already existing parody, he didn't make the original parody himself.
Rick is Dan Harmon's self insert; he sees himself as a misunderstood, alcoholic genius who has the potential to do almost anything of he would just get out of his own way, but he's also so neurotic and self-loathing that he understands it's pathetic that he sees himself that way. Hence Rick; a godlike being that can do anything he needs to within the narrative, constantly references the fact that he is in fact inside a story, but is so up his own ass that he can't actually accomplish anything. This is Dan's perfect summary of himself.
you are a moron
Nobody can self-insert as Rick because what he does is humanly impossible. It's like self-inserting as Iron Man or Superman, which is impossible because they are abstractions/idealizations. A self-insert would be a somewhat average person, so Morty is more of a self-insert than Rick
>Nobody can self-insert as Rick because what he does is humanly impossible.
That's a stupid sentence, the most common criticism of self-insert characters is that they're overly powerful or capable of anything, which a normal person isn't. If I wrote a DC comic where someone that looked and talked exactly like me showed up and beat up Superman, that would obviously and correctly be called a self-insert character.
Plus, Harmon is a writer, which means he has near limitless power over the events of the story. Rick is a character that knows he's in a story, and also has near limitless power within the story. Perfect self-insert.
Rick is a depressive suicidal old man with no goal or purpose no values or meaning or anything he does. The only way you'd self-insert as him is if you want to die, in which case you're inserting for the suicidality not the godlike powers.
>Rick is a depressive suicidal old man with no goal or purpose no values or meaning or anything he does
Yep, sounds like Dan Harmon at his worst, a man that has struggled with depression his entire adult life and spoken openly about it many times. Seriously, learn anything anything the actual guy we're talking about before you decide whether or not I'm wrong.
So he’s Dan Harmon’s self-insert?
>supergenius Mary Sue
>literally just a psychologist
but also, what fricking asian self inserts as a psychotherapist?
This truly was the point where it was over, wasn't it? Fun fact. This was written by the woman behind She-Hulk. Explains a lot.
>This truly was the point where it was over, wasn't it?
Pretty much
Some people say S2 was shit as well, but Total Rickall was kino
Pickle Rick is one of the best episodes.
Also when you have a writing team it really doesn't matter who gets credited for an individual episode. All it means is she had a self insert as the therapist so they gave her the grunt work for the episode.
Between this and the outcome of Samurai Jack’s final season, 2017 was a terrible time for [as] fans.
season 3 was worth it for the vendicators alone. the web series was incredible
but the citadel of ricks episode was an achievement. you get world building done through a slice of life premise and you get the twilight zone horror of the simple rick payoff.
I liked the Pencilvester ep. was that S3?
S 1 or 2
Lot wtf that was the worst episode in an otherwise decent season.
The mcnugget sauce sperg out combined with the "to be fair" copypasta unironically killed the show and forever associated it with fedora-tipping pseuds flailing on the ground over a shitty dipping sauce promotion.
It was a simpler time
/tv/tards have been throwing a fit over Rick and Morty since the "There is no God, Summer" joke in the very first episode.
It was not a sperg out it was planned by a "content creator"
This goes back to the old phrase “only morons act moronic.” Yes it was on purpose, yes it was still moronic. It tainted the brand. Anti-hype.
Voice acting isnt the problem though?
Everyone loved Bushworld Adventure
>Hey Morty, we've been cancelled Morty!
>Aw Jeez Rick, were you hitting on teenagers again?
Nah nobody wants to watch reddit and morty anymore
will they finally kill it
it was a truly awful episode
you can tell your show is doomed when you start overcompensating with celebrity cameos
Also, Rick's new voice sounds dead inside
But all the shills told me nothing had changed?
I liked the episode where they punched nazis
Total Rickall was a great episode honestly.
Did that trigger you, chuddie? Did you feel genocided?
that post is from ten hours ago genius
>What the frick happened
Scrubs girl still looks hot as frick.
>Cinemaphile will now pretend everything after season 2 but before season 7 was good to protect their groomer
Lol
what's this meme that supposedly the show fell off after season 2? it was always the same slop
who's from the two of them got cucked by his gf getting literally blacked in blacked.com?
wut
Justin was rightfully blacklisted for being an insufferable autist to work around, him being innocent about the allegations against him is irrelevant. Hopefully he never finds work in the industry again. Autistic people shouldn't be allowed in the workforce.
If autism is repugnant to you then Cinemaphile is not the place to be.
theres way too many episodes that are structured like
>"hey rick u need to do the thing"
>"i am too smart to do the thing *BURP* its beneath me"
>wacky adventure
>ends up doing the thing after all
i hate every episode where that happens
I like the episodes where Morty wants to do a thing and Rick says he's stupid for wanting to do a thing, but after negging Rick obliges and then Morty screws up and Rick saves the day via some anti-doing the thing, that actively mocks Morty. I love every episode like that.
I remember when the first couple episodes of season 1 released and it was the coolest shit for a whole summer
I can't think of another thing that went from "cool" to "the lamest thing ever" so quickly and that includes other TV shows or bands or whatever. Season two was a lot weaker but I blame the embarrassing fanbase that emerged. That Szechwan Sauce fiasco was a real eye opener.
I think Game of Thrones has gone faster from "best show ever made" to "GoT? Never heard of it." as a coping measure
roiland, harmon and the nicholas (the guy who wrote the sperm episode) all wrote this one, so roiland did something and even that could not save us from the autistic frick who thought that the sperm episode was good enough to become an actual thing
Railond and Harmon didn't write the episode. These are creator credits. Chase has a writting credit under every Sopranos episode, doesn't mean he wrote every single one of them.
imdb just adds justin roiland and dan harmon to the writers credits for every episode, even if they didn't write shit.
Nick Rutherford wrote the episode.
MY appeal is that Roiland was gross in real life and liked drinking, acted like a pig but was true to himself, knowing that, enjoying his voice via rick and morty was 100% of the affinity I had with the show
Yes I want the HECKING CHUD RAPIST back asap.
Holy shit if it managed to maintain high scores even throughout the utter dogshit that was season 4 then this latest season must be fricking horrendous.
Rick & Morty has been bad since whatever season they did
>le wacky randome tv clip
episode for a second time.
If you disagree you simply have no taste and your humor sucks. Go watch Lower Decks or some other normie abomination you midwit homosexual.
>ah my name is billy the ant-man and I sell ant-sized furniture to human-size ants
*normies piss and shit themselves laughing*
>What the frick happened
the show has been regarded as a NERD show for the past 2 seasons so normies lost their motivation to watch it
This show was so much better when it was trying to just be wacky sci fi adventures with only rick and morty which was the original vision Roiland had for the show. Meanwhile Harmon wanted the show to get serious and self inserted his marriage/relationship drama with the beth and jerry plots nobody cares about while the feminist writters made summer a more main character and inserted dumbass incest jokes and plots nobody likes.
This show is gonna be viewed as the biggest waste of potential of the 2010s, with only season 1 (and maybe a few episodes from season 2 but that's debatable) being considered worth watching
>waste of potential
This is the problem, it didn't fricking have any potential. It was funny because it was a wacky parody show with no rules, this cannot work as a long form story. Every time they have to tone down the crazy shit to give the show stakes, it feels forced because we know Rick can do anything. But any time Rick does anything that isn't a punchline, it feels pointless because there are no stakes. It should have stayed as a series of animated shorts, trying to make a multiple season narrative out of this was doomed to fail from the beginning.
>Harmon wanted the show to get serious and self inserted his marriage/relationship drama with the beth and jerry plots nobody cares about
This
roiland should do voices for that animator guys videos
i think he did a star wars
maybe they could do a die hard next that sounds fun
MORTY I'm cuckold RICK
I can’t believe there are people on teevee who unironically think this midwit shit was ever good. Absolutely embarrassing
So you enjoy enjoying nothing?
If you're gonna give me the list of things you enjoy to disprove me, don't care, won't read. Just wanted to let you know, you're pathetic.
>igay filename
>le trvd romvn reaction image
you were sticking play-doh in your mouth when season 1 dropped, shut the frick up
Roiland IS the show. Doc and Mharti is at its core. Without him it's just interdimensional Bojack Horseman.
Rickor Mortis
CARLOS!!!
No shit. They cancelled the wrong guy, its obvious just looking at Harmon who the fricking homosexual unfunny cvck is.
So did anyone read the negative critic reviews that got the audience and critic scores so close? One says the polar opposite of what this thread is saying, one says "it's been growing increasingly stale with each season", and one just says "meh."
>Alison Foreman, indieWire TOP CRITIC
Season 7 moves in the opposite direction -- re-centering Rick and Morty as the leads without seriously evolving them and once again sidelining Summer and the Beths to give Jerry more time on screen.
>Jake Kleinman, Inverse TOP CRITIC
It’s become increasingly clear that the once-brilliant sci-fi cartoon has run out of ideas, and we may be at the very start of a long and painful slog to the finish — even if there’s still some fun to be had along the way.
>Alberto Carlos, Espinof
The episodes are fun, slightly clever but wildly uneven. I don't know, however, if this may speak more of the classic truncation of this comedy's own ambition or of failing to find a new direction. [Full review in Spanish]
The show was always bad. It’s just became obvious.
oh boy, just watched it and ahahahahaHOLY SHIT WHAT THE FRICK WAS THAT? I didnt expect to see a lowpoint that makes Season 5 look good in comparison, seriously when they met Jackman and they suddenly started having this drawn out back and forth you usually see on those shitty Netflix cartoons with a shoestring budget? They never did this before and god it was painful, its such a telltale sign that a cartoon series is way past its time when they start using celebrities not as cameo voices or little side-characters but as an essential part of the plot.
>its such a telltale sign that a cartoon series is way past its time when they start using celebrities not as cameo voices or little side-characters but as an essential part of the plot.
true
Cope. They just had Billie Eilish on The Simpsons last year and The Simpsons is still good.
Cinemaphile Is always wrong.
didn't roiland voice both rick and morty? did they just use a similar VA and hope no one will give a shit?
He was unironically most of the show, without him it's over
I lost interest two episodes into last season.
It just was never the same, superior show after the first two seasons.
The constant meta jokes attacking the viewers for wanting a more classic Rick and Morty season 3 onward is pretty grating. The biggest one I can think of is the Nazi Morty pulling a gun on Rick and screaming "you will go where I tell you to go!"
Do you have to go on cable TV to watch it? I was so confused when everyone was talking about it but I couldn't find the episode anywhere

Here's the spoonfeeding you asked for, anon.
>some drunks try to get their drunk friend back together with his wife
didn't this used to be a sci fi show
>Rotten tomatoes
anon I…..
>crazy guys are funnier than any amount of women writers
Duh. What else is new?
Bird daughter's hot
the episode was boring and bad but I was really impressed with the voice casting. it's very, very actually good. especially if you compare to the new season of Futurama where the cast did not change but merely got older — they sound old and it comes through and it's very distracting. with respect to the casting in Rick and Morty, I wonder if they're using AI to massage the recordings at all.
So we all agree that Roiland is based after this video, right?
>that thumbnail
He is absolutely zased
Why do they keep throwing in celebrities to the show?
the shows been shit since they hired a bunch of literally whos in season 3
>normies hate it
>critics hate it
>puts on contrarian hat
I now think Rick and Morty is based
Can space Beth just get yeeted already?
The ghost with unfinished business was the only funny part.
Can't believe how terrible the new episode of Rick and Morty is this is supposed to be my guilty pleasure but it's more like a pile of shit
>this is supposed to be my guilty pleasure but it's more like a pile of shit
Lots of that going around.
Should you be fired if people make unproven accusations that you did something wrong?
The episode just sucked. Yes, even for Rick and Morty standards.
I haven't watched R&M since season 4, and then I showed a friend an episode from season 1 and realized the show isn't even remotely the same humor anymore
Watching the first season is nuts because it's funny and fast paced, the current show is a bunch of unfunny dialogue with the occasional action sequence
>a audience
the geniuses at rotten tomatoes strike again
the whole season isnt even out for frick sake
Not really. The show was getting steadily worse with every single new season.
>reddit hates it
>twitter hates it
this means i must love it
yes, the show took a less childish tone and thats why reddit hates it, which means we should like it
The season premiere felt like a midseason filler episode. Shows over.
