Have you watched Rick and Morty?
What do you like about this show?
What are your favourite episodes?


The show revolves around the adventures of the members of the Smith household, which consists of parents Jerry and Beth, their children Summer and Morty, and Beth's father, Rick Sanchez, who lives with them as a guest. According to Justin Roiland, the family lives outside of Seattle, Washington.[3] The adventures of Rick and Morty, however, take place across an infinite number of realities, with the characters traveling to other planets and dimensions through portals and Rick's flying saucer.

Rick is an eccentric and alcoholic mad scientist, who eschews many ordinary conventions such as school, marriage, love, and family. He frequently goes on adventures with his 14-year-old grandson, Morty, a kind-hearted but easily distressed boy, whose naïve but grounded moral compass plays counterpoint to Rick's Machiavellian ego.[5][6] Morty's 17-year-old sister, Summer, is a more conventional teenager who worries about improving her status among her peers and sometimes follows Rick and Morty on their adventures. The kids' mother, Beth, is a generally level-headed person and assertive force in the household, though self-conscious about her professional role as a horse surgeon. She is dissatisfied with her marriage to Jerry, a simple-minded and insecure person, who disapproves of Rick's influence over his family.

I really liked the first season, and enjoyed it for a couple more seasons, but there's a lot of pretty strange stuff in it. Not like funny just...weird. Also, it mocks Christianity a lot (like many animated sitcoms), and I just got tired of seeing that. Plus it really got stale in general.

I really liked the first three-plus seasons of 'Rick and Morty', and there were some good episodes in S4, but I noticed I was left bummed out more and more often as the years went on. Maybe a year from now, I'll want to watch more.

...they're running out of jokes, I feel like. They broke their self-imposed "no time-travel" rule back in S4, and I admit that was a ridiculously funny episode, but I also haven't watched a new episode since then.

I have to admit the Rick & Morty game Pocket Mortys was actually a cool idea, but it was just way too cheap. If they put any sort of budget behind it I'm sure it'd have been good.
