Why did the last thread got deleted?
I'll repost my post:
Shame we always get bad endings with anything related to the multiverse. I just want, for once, something good. Like now, we could've had a Morty who visits his other family from time to time, and they understand that it isn't forever and make them not crazy. Or a Morty who actually got to have sex with Jessica (at least we don't get episodes anymore where he keeps unsuccessfully chasing after her).

He was clean for 17 years, until Morty showed up. When Morty told Rick that it wasn't his drinking that pushed Diane away, that enabled him into drinking again.

>>
>>154803220
it's really too bad Morty had to enable him into ruining his life. Although after 17 years you'd think Beth would give Rick a chance, especially if he's been sober. But I imagine Jerry intercepted any kind of contact between them. Hell, Rick wasn't even invited to Mort's funeral.
>>
>>154802424
You know what my real question is?

What happened to Operation Phoenix? You know they emergency protocol put in place by Rick to automatically upload his into a body of clone in the event of unexpected death?

I know Rick shut down O.P after the Tiny Rick episode, but his mind was uploaded to another Rick's clone in another Dimension in the mind crystal episode and Rick constantly bouncing from one to another that whole episode. And Rick officially brought it back during the episode when he, Morty and Bigfoot were fighting The Pope and kept dying and we know he have back-up for other members of the family shown by Summer. So do some Rick don't have Operation Phoenixes of theirs own in case of death? Cause if they did they along with the whole family would come back instantly after an event that cause theirs deaths. Or am I looking into to deep into this?
>>
Anyone got the mega for President Curtis?
>>
>>154803472
Yeah that's the implication
Some ricks don't have operation phoenix for one reason or another
>>
>>154802963
I like how nothing even happens in the trailer. Its just drumpf and viceprezzo running around from(nothing?) and then he waves to people, alien gets arrested and a senateman is a robot. It doesnt convey anything this is supposed to be like snippets of imagined episodes. What narrative is there?

In ancient rome they let their slaves go at age 30 but with these people it's like they don't even want to give up the slaves body after it died years ago.
>>
>>154803837
because the long neck dog gun clearly wasn't an intentional invention. He was likely experimenting with technology without really knowing what the result would be. He's certainly not at the level of modifying himself with cybernetics like other Ricks. He's just a college professor with tenure.

I got back into it recently. Stopped watching around Season 5ish, rewatched it from 5 all the way to 9. Frankly, I don't think the lows were even that low, I just think the fans had super high expectations. 5 wasn't that great, but 6 wasn't that bad really. I enjoyed 7 and 8, and 9 is pretty good too. I'm kind of disappointed that I have to wait for the next season now.

When Evil Morty destroyed the Central Finite curve and hopped to a different universe, this universe was kind of where I expected him to end up. No Sci-Fi, normal family, normal world, the Rick living in it is either gone or normal, etc.

i can see why some anons here are full on the incest thing.
something was 100% qrong about this family, They would literally put Morty on a leash.
>>
>>154804924
the clingy lovingness was normal and reasonable at the beginning, but once the entire family decided to kidnap Morty and keep him hostage, that's when it tips into very strange territory. Frankly, I wouldn't be surprised if Jerry planned the whole thing, told Summer and Beth to stay home so he could get Morty alone and isolated.
>>
since Mort was at MIT, makes me wonder wat would occur if Professor Rick crossed pats or teamed up
>>
>>154805104
I think he would have been a good grandpa, Mort would get to know him and realize almost everything Jerry had said had been wrong or a lie. Maybe try to reconnect Beth to him, somehow. Although I doubt it would end happily.

My favorite part of every R&M season at this point is the uptick of Summer lewds.

Mort obviously hated his family and probably was on good terms with Rick.

So I suppose the point of this episode is to remind us that despite Rick being an abusive asshole and a chaos bringer, he's not the sole or even primary reason the family is bad?

In the main universes, Beth remembers Rick as someone who abandoned her for ~20 years and blames the abandonment issues for her failures, then Jerry blames him in the present for constantly bringing danger into their home. While neither are wrong exactly, it should be noted that Beth didn't seem to let the ostensible abandonment for anything but her failures and that Rick being gone for so long means he didn't have any influence on Summer and Morty until they were already teenagers.

In this universe, while seemingly more stable at first, shows that the family has problems beyond Rick's influence. Rick didn't abandon Beth and his absence for all of Summer and Morty's life comes down to Jerry convincing Beth to get estranged from him, which he respected for all that time and they never bothered to see if he cleaned up his act. The circumstances around Mort's death came down to Jerry pushing him needlessly hard and Summer just decided to pre-approve herself for MIT, just because she happened to be in the right place.

Basically, Rick's involvement with the family is the inverse of what it normally is, Jerry Summer and Mort don't even really know him while has no abandonment issues to blame, and they still ended up terrible people.

Alright, I think I figured out how Rick managed to invent portal travel when most other Rick's failed. All the other Ricks simply didn't have the right tools or knowledge base to do it.

Remember the multiverse spy glasses and interdimensional cable box? Rick realised somewhere along the that it was safer and easier to first simply create a way of viewing other realities than transport anything there, once he had that tech he could simply just do the necessary research. Basically, instead of tediously doing trial and error with potentially thousands of failed attempts himself without ever making a working portal, he could simply catalog billions of failed experiment all at once and work out the kinks from the most successful failures, then keep going until he got it.

Remember the episode about the citadel survivors trying to perfect cloning and getting the lead Rick behind the Morty cloning farm, only for that Rick to admit that there was no one single genius behind it and that he was just the guy in charge collecting data and directing? It's like that, no single Rick actually invented the portal gun on his own because it was simply too complicated, he just managed to get all the notes he needed from his alternate self to compile a working design.

A recurring theme is Jerry is actually successful where he either never marries Beth or doesn't have to deal with Rick/Beth's abandonment issues.
Doofus Jerry wasn't on the level Evil Morty is, but he was a scary Jerry and it between episodes like this and the Traveler Jerry episodde it seems like every time he has the opportunity to Jerry turns into a megalomaniac because Beth or Rick aren't destroying his ego.
>>
>>154807346
Rick created portal travel on his own, we witness this in his crybaby backstory and even at the shoney's in his head. He needed no outside help in order to create portal travel. It was every other Rick who needed a hand out.

>>154807346
>I think I figured out how Rick managed to invent portal travel when most other Rick's failed
I do too.
I figured it out when Rick Prime explicitedly stated ONLY Prime ever successfully developed portal travel and that he then GAVE every other Rick portal travel which they reverse-engineered.

Simply put Rick C-137 was the only Rick with the right motivation to build a functioning portal gun - Prime killed the family he never abandoned, unlike the other Ricks who never lost Diane until much much later in their lives after they abandoned their families likely only after Prime gives them portal guns.

This is also why this episode's Rick never actually built a functioning portal gun, as only Prime and C-137 ever did.

It's not really a "plot twist" when they've done this shit literally 15 times. Why can't the Mort reality Smiths actually be well adjusted and nice? Why immediately make this Rick a drunk within a few days? It would have been way more interesting if they didn't take the easy way out with every version of these characters.

The current family is competent BECAUSE of Rick, and not in-spite of him.
Beyond C-137 and Morty Prime's personal development Summer became the Summeriest Summer through chores and violence, Beth became the Bethiest Beth when she was cloned and finally accepted her life despite all reservations, and Jerry became the Jerriest Jerry because he was replaced in an after-credits gag and acceptance of his sheer replaceability is what made him irreplaceable.

Uh... No. I think it's just referencing the fact that despite paying lip service to the idea of being parenting, Beth and Jerry clearly don't care that much about Morty.

As early as the pilot we see them feign concern for Morty's education and companionship, when really they're just using him as an excuse in an argument over whether or not Rick should be allowed to live with them. While it's true that Rick is not a good influence on Morty, the fact that Jerry outright says he thinks Morty has a learning disability but simply tells him to "work twice as hard" instead of getting him help with this perceived disability means he doesn't actually care about Morty's education, it's just a convenient excuse to kick Rick out. At the end of the Cronenberg episode, Beth literally admits that she's happy that Morty have gone missing despite the world being irreparably ruined, implying she's at best indifferent towards him and might straight up hate him in secret. Then we keep getting episode after episode of them prioritising themselves over their children, like Jerry only being bothered by an emergency call from Morty because it interferes with his attempt to mooch off Summer. Hell, remember when Beth was told "squanch" gets the meaning of whatever you mean in your heart and her attempt to say it to mean "love" ended up being something that Squanchy found disturbing for some reason, as if she was incapable of saying she loved her family?

Rick, as abusive as he is, actually spends time with and sticks his neck out for Morty. For better or worse, he does actually care about Morty. He may say the nastiest, meanest things possible to the kid and what he drags him along for is often traumatising, but he still cares. He doesn't have a good relationship with Morty but he still wants to have him in his life, while Beth and Jerry mainly just seem to do what's expected of them as parents and don't care beyond that.

Ricks will lose all of their ethics when they realize that their actions don't really have consequences when you can just step into another universe. Morty did exactly what Prime did to our Rick.

How long was he trapped in Basic Rick's reality?

Because from the time of the portal gun breaking to him getting to MIT to then Rick making portal guns it feels like somewhat of a long time. At least weeks

Although I can't really tell because Jerry got to Rick just in time, but the way the scenes frame it feels like months that Rick was working on the portal gun

1. It's not exactly a "handout" to look at someone else's failure and learning from it.
2. Rick did say that what we saw in the season three premiere was fake, even if the season five version is frustratingly similar and they have never bothered to explain how that makes any sense.
3. We don't actually see the sequence of events that lead up to the creation of the portal gun or how he figured it out in the season five version, just that he crafted it.
4. And this obviously not confirmed because it's just a theory but I suspect Rick took a big chunk of his memories out for storage and planted fake ones to motivate himself, hence the "crybaby backstory" being called fake earlier on. Visually, it doesn't even make sense with the season six premiere literally one episode later, the garage blew up completely in the "crybaby" backstory and was still in ruins by the time he gave up hunting Prime being attacked by random Ricks instead, yet when Rick returns the garage is intact aside from the crater on the ground but the blueprints for the portal gun still on the wall, something he wouldn't need even if he randomly chose to rebuild the garage. Basically, there's reason to think the "crybaby backstory" is still bullshit to some extent.

I really liked this Rick, seeing him turn into his worst self was sad he was still a nice Rick, his willingness to help his grandson from another dimension was also touching. I genuinely think that this guy could have probably invented portal travel on his own if pushed a bit more and given some more time, but that probably could be said for most ricks. They just stifle their own growth by accepting hand-outs. This was probably one of the reasons for Rick Prime going around sharing portal travel in the first place, he is trying to prevent Ricks from progressing to a level that could threaten him. But if he gives them the technology without them having earned it, they just get conceited and never get to truly push themselves.
This Rick was probably on his way to making it on his own, he would have lost everything else in the process though.

I think it also means more knowing that Morty isn't even his actual grandson and is the grandson of his nemesis who killed his wife and kid and erased the former across all universes. For all intents and purposes, he should feel nothing for this version or even hate him, yet he's the most irreplaceable to Rick despite what he says.

Not even once, even though that's the whole premise behind the Citadel of Ricks and why C-137 was probably involved in the first place - they were saving all the Ricks from the wrath of C-137.
Even when in operation at large the citadel was about recovery of assets and destruction of liabilities and never actually about saving Ricks. The only time where Ricks might be involved in saving any other Rick and/or Morty altruisticly is when dealing with crime in Mortytown.

The funniest way to restart the citadel would be to just portal into a new corner of infinity where it never blew up and go "What mouuurty yo-y-you thought there were stakes mourtty it's fucking infinite m-mourty it doesn't matter if A citadel blows up y-you little d-dipshit there's INFINITE citadels of INFINITE R-ricks i-i explain the core concept do-BUUUURP-zens of times you little- special ed... g-goddamn jerry-gened retard... y-you're my little boy though okay, g-grandpa loves you he just gets m-mad because he knows you could be doing better and y-you know u-UUURP n-not be a fucking retarded m-moron with eighty five IQ... m-mourty..."

Even if there is no citadel, it's not like Ricks don't have ways to gather if they need to. They literally have a whole organized estate sale going on. Things like the Jerryboree were also outside of the citadel. There is no need for the citadel at all to be honest.

>I suspect Rick took a big chunk of his memories out for storage and planted fake ones to motivate himself
I might as well elaborate on this. I kinda suspect Rick's real backstory is a lot like what we saw in this episode, that he caused everyone else to leave him because he didn't care to maintain relationships over his work and drinking. Maybe Beth C-137 really did die but not because some evil alternate self showed up, rather because his own negligence. Then when he finally created portal travel, he noticed Diane was gone and hadn't really paid enough attention to know where she went. The fake memories were put there so he would have a reason to do anything because he felt his life had lost all purpose, so a fake purpose to get false revenge was better than nothing. To elaborate further but admitting it's a bit of a stretch, Rick Prime is partially fake too. While there was an actual physical Rick Prime for Rick to hunt down and may have been the one to use the omega device, he didn't actually exist until Rick decided to create his fake backstory. In reality, C-137 was the guy going around handing out portal guns himself under a false identity of Rick Prime, with the physical Rick Prime being a clone of a random dead Rick and given fake memories that aligned with C-137's fake memories. His only purpose was to be a needle in a haystack, just real enough for Rick to not figure out his self-deception.

>>154808255
Why would he even care about doing that when he was fine with it just being a ruin and why put the blueprints back on the wall? I do prefer to think that much of his backstory is fake memories and a mislead, not just because of the inconsistencies, but because the whole thing was just a giant joke about clichés when it was first brought up and makes minimal sense at best as an explanation for how Rick came to be.

Morty's also a huge piece of shit, at least C-137 admits it. Whenever Morty gets power he'll callously murder people who inconvenience him, like in the Mr. Nimbus episode, the futuresight Death Crystal episode, the Planetina episode, etc. Hell even this episode he shot Sunglasses Morty completely unprompted because he couldn't deal with the consequences of his own actions.

It’s funny how if Mort survived the family probably would’ve reconciled since he was planning on running away to live with Rick. Then they would’ve seen him at his best rather than the relapsed Rick they saw in the garage

it would have been a great season finale if morty told them that they where using him as a crutch for their grief and that he would help them go through it at their pace. that they were hurting and going too far because of it. but no, it had to end in tragedy and mass slaughter.

Be honest, who actually gives a fuck about Mr. PB after Roiland got fired? Personally I never really liked him to begin with, especially as this running gag as the end tag for finales anyway, but what's even the point of using him at all anymore when his whole character was just Roiland ad-libbing anyway?

They got screwed having him be the main focus of the S7 Premiere right before Roiland got fired and had to recast last second, but why still try and use this character that 1) the new guy they got to voice him isn't even that close of an impression 2) was never that funny to begin with?
>>
>>154810162

Yah that's silly, why even get a 3rd guy to voice PB when's basically just a more whimsical version of Morty? I get people don't like Harry Belden as Morty, and I agree sometimes it's really bad, but occasionaly I think he does a decent enough Job. Ian Cardoni is the best of the recast though, I almost prefer his Rick to Roiland's.

I know Harmon's spoke on it, but I wonder how pissed the Writer's room was that their big Canon episode about killing Rick Prime was crippled by the new VAs still being new to the process and sounding pretty off?

The Evil Morty episode was dogshit because it was the writer's doing their obligatory canon heavy episode per season just to get it out of the way, but in doing so removing the only somewhat interesting loose thread in the canon for the foreseeable future. I don't even really like Evil Morty, I think it's actually pretty dumb they've kept him going for this long, but was kind of a bummer knowing that was pretty much the rest of the season was going to be self-contained (more or less)

I think it's supposed to be seen as him being pissed off at him for getting him to go to universes like this to begin with, but you're right, it is 100% Morty's own fault that it played out like it did.

Morty can never blame himself when things like this go out of hand, in his mind he wanted something small and nice so he blames glasses Morty for making it all happen.

It's not even like it's good fanservice, without Roiland doing (extremely hacky, tired and unfunny) alt comic improv for him, there's nothing to the character that's funny or even interesting other than "Heh, isn't it funny we've been running this joke into the ground for a decade?"

Eh, he definitely pushed his Morty too hard, but I don't think he was necessarily a murderous psycho until a version of his recently dead son, showed up, and then tried to ghost him over the span of like a couple of days. I think anyone would go kind of crazy under those circumstances.
>>
>>154810723
A lot of the early seasons (1 and 2 and maybe 3) and you could say the heart of the show was Roiland's awkward improv

Bits like Interdemensional cable, a lot of Ricks songs and quips, the weird names things had.

I agree it was obviously hacky and tired but it was a core part of the show so without him parts of it that remain don't really make sense or have lost that integral part turning it into something completely different. Roiland was clearly obsessed or very fond of improv and he could put it in because it was his show. Some replacement VA or one of the dozen random writers can't go "um can I just ad lib? No? Okay sorry nvm"

Something like interdemensional cable was unique not because it was anthological or sidestories but because they were pure nonsense that Roiland just spun on the spot which made them absurd as an ad. Imagine the current set up/writers trying to do it today, it would completely scripted and likely meant to have a wider meaning—any attempt of spontaneous absurdity would be completely artificial
>>
>>154809150
>So I might go off topic but also on topic bit can someone elaborate on how the hell did this show become “the incest show”?

Weren't Rick and Morty confronting hot Summer in the second episode? The incest has always been there because both Harmon and Roiland are huge pervs who love it.
>>
>>154810501
Beth would just get drunk and laid with herself. Summer would either reenact the plot of The One or form an army to conquer the multiverse.

To be totally honest, I really hated a lot of the improved stuff anyway so I've probably adjusted to the new direction the show's taken better than most (outside of how off the voices can still sound sometimes), and hot take but I never liked Interdimensional Cable anyway. Mindblowers was a much more fun anthology episode, and honestly the one from S7 with the Observer rocks might be my favorite of those kinds of episodes.

Also I could be wrong, but wasn't most of the improv stuff toned down by S3-4 anyway as Roiland got less and less involved creatively outside of doing VA? I feel like by S5 that stuff is more or less gone from the show anyway.

I think it plays on that one concept about "a long kick and trying to lessen it" But also think without rick destroying the family dynamic and demoralizing and undermining jerry with beth and morty he'd have done more to help morty. Think though it shows in a way jerry becomes a chad to make up for his own childhood and to keep up with beth without others tearing him down.

Agreed, but it's also barely been subtext for awhile, the Two-Parter finale for S5 has Morty explicitly say he went for a "rebound" after Rick chose the two crows. It's weird because they'll obviously never literally go there because it's even more fucked up than having literal Summer/Morty incest be canon and plot relevant, but they kind of implicitly acknowledge their relationship is more "Toxic couple" than "Grandfather/Grandson", which m ostensibly is what it should be.

It was toned down like I said it was only really present in season 1 and 2 although we don’t know for sure when some stuff is improvised. But it’s undeniable that that sort of approach was what made Rick and Morty Rick and Morty.

My main point is that Roiland was more than just the voices or even the writing, he was someone in a position that can control the micro and macro aspects of a show on the ground floor of its production with little contention. Whether this is good or bad is completely subjective (although most people considered the first two seasons the height of the show’s quality) but it was inarguably unique.

Back to Mr Poopybutthole, hes basically a relic from this approach. Same with interdimensional cable (mind blowers and the other anthologies arent the same thing because the cable is purely about the improv and unlike other anthologies which are always about the Smiths they were about complete one off characters). His whole character is Roiland doing his silly voice with a character that he clearly named, all for a funny twist in an episode about introducing new characters. It became a running gag to make this irrelevant character do the finale post credits but now they’re too scared to stop and they have no strong director willing to make changes like that

So now it’s really fucking tired
>>
>>154810298
I feel like the entire episode was written just to have Morty Prime slap Evil Morty like an insecure wife slapping her husband's mistress. Bookends the season nicely with Morty Prime being the homewrecker in the finale and telling Sober Rick's wife >>154802424. Jealous Morties feel partticularly pathetic compared to normal.

Although I'm curious to see what prison shenanigans Evil Morty will get into, he's obviously going to gain control of the entire operation next time he shows up. Hopefully being a time traveler across infinite realities beyond the central finite curve satisfies him enough so he doesn't relapse and become Rick dependant again like they made him this season.

Great sum up. They really should just bite the bullet and just never mention him again after this finale's endtag. It was kind of funny the first time, second time less so but funny in the sense they intentionally did a tired bit, third time in S5 (or 6? I forget), it was pushing it, and giving him a full on episode about his divorce was always stupid, but at least understandable to me when Roiland was still on the show (Apparently he already recorded everything for S7 before he was fired), but after that point it's just like...who is this even for anymore? No one would be mad at you for cutting out a character that was, at best, mildly amusing a couple of times (well other than Roiland I guess)

This episode punched me straight in the heart
I can't believe this show has been around for 13 years and that I've been watching it this whole time
I used to get home from work at 7 or 8 in the morning, back when I lived with my mom, and I'd light up my bong and watch S1 and then later S2 on the Hulu account a friend of mine was sharing with me
Watched the show on a whim not even knowing it was popular, but it was hilarious and fun
I wasn't doing too well in life back then I'm not doing super well now, either, but weirdly enough I'm nostalgic for that time now probably because my mom has been dead for a while
In a way it also makes me feel like I've wasted all this time
I'm not married, I don't have the career I wanted, no college degree, all I have to my name is being a hot girl and rich handsome guys don't care about that they can fuck new bitches all the time
I always find these self loop episodes really relatable in a depressing but yet ironically comforting way
There's clearly some kind of personal experience here from at least one of the writers and if they're successful now, I can be too
You really can't escape yourself
Anyway, I don't smoke anymore, for the better
Maybe time will slow down long enough for me to finally get it together, but it doesn't matter, I have to get it together anyway because there's nobody coming to save me
>>

I mean, sure, but I'm genuinely just curious what sort of nightmare a smart evil Naruto would be. Our Morty and Summer are both pretty vapid and decently retarded, but a fully actualized Morty and fully actualized Summer could produce a real terror.

>Never explicitly said they fixed it, but also had him be ice cold to Sober Rick's Swedish wife in this episode.
Bro, it was fixed off screen. He clearly expresses feelings towards others, sociopath Morty did not care about anyone and would not have been dismayed at the sight of dead versions of his family. He also wasn't ice cold, just being frank about the type of effect he and Rick have on each other through time and space in order to help her understand why he was changing so radically.

I agree it is probably just that, but they were also really inconsistent with what did and didn't get serialized this season (Jerry getting a job, Rick having to build his own vodka distillery after the pig people blew his up) that it seems kind of stupid they didn't at least explicitly resolve it in the endtag, especially when the next two episodes show Morty being kind of an asshole.

Only semi-related: what was the point of highlighting how sad/bad Rick's alcoholism was as a theme across the whole season (as opposed to the rest of the show where it's mostly played for a laugh), when they do absolutely nothing with it by the end?
>>
>>154811281
This exactly, Rick prime was such a good "final boss" type character but this was back during the writers being so pissy about having to do "canon" stories and they had to ruin every single lore episode with 4th wall breaks and meta jokes

We could have had something genuinely amazing with rick prime, give him like 2 whole seasons where he's the villain and focus not just 1 single 22 min episode where he dies and a bunch of cameos beforehand, such a waste

"You lived in my house!!"
Such a great line but it feels so empty when you realized how underutilized he was

>>154811281

I don't mind that they blew Rick Prime early because taking out the expected final boss before the end can sometimes lead to a more fun finale after, I just think it could have worked better if it felt like they had a solid plan for what to do after.

It's pretty consistent that a Rick can be happy if he stops self sabotaging and truly makes changes in his life, but he's too far gone to actually making a meaningful change. Kind of like how when decapitated both the head and body are cool Ricks, and Sober Rick is mature enough to be a popular professor and remarry, but C137's too deep into his nihilism and alcoholism to fix himself.

>>154811340
I still think they could do something with prime that would be interesting. Like obviously bringing him back would be cheap and dumb, but I think fleshing out why he became the way he did in some kind of flashback episode or something would be cool, especially since he's the Rick Beth remembers walking out on her family.
>>
>>154811358
>But frankly, what are the chances the Prime is actually dead? Why wouldn't he have some sort of Phoenix Protocol?
Evil Morty literally fries his backups right before he steals the omega device plans.

>>154811323
>conviently ignoring the death of cable and the rise of streaming so your retarded argument makes sense
>>
>>154811358
The problem with doing that is basically all the criticism towards ep1 of this season, evil morty coming back, it feels like they really are grasping for any straws if they decide to do the whole "oooh rick prime had back up clones of course he does that!"

And I doubt they'll do him justice, the fact that evil morty wasn't killed off shows that they are keeping him as a hail mary if interest drops, a literal key jangle towards whatevers left of the audience
>>
>>154803009
We already had a Bush parody show, I mostly just remember the fetus guy and the closed spaces episode though
>>
>>154811372
It's annoying because sometimes they pump fake some kind of character development for Rick, but you sort of expect it to not really mean much after the one of episode or two where it happens, but in this season addiction and co-dependence is an aspect of like 7-8 out of the ten episodes and it goes nowhere meaningful for any character. I think they have lightened up a lot in recent seasons, but the nihilistic handwaving of character development still shows up a little too often.
>>
>>154811376
strange that Prime was so cool with it
but we've also seen our Rick take his phoenix program down, yet was still able to hop dimensions into a new body
>>
>>154811373
>especially since he's the Rick Beth remembers walking out on her family
Would have been very interesting if they didn't also killed off the cronenberg universe, you know the OG season 1 universe, fuck this show is full of bad writing decisions

Nah, religiontards are really that stubborn and entitled. Add female mindset on top of that and she's never seeing her dad again unless she's forced to.

Good point, Morty should have killed himself to return home.
>>
>>154802699
>he has taken Jessica on a date
What's even going on with Jessica anymore? It's clearly not Time God Jessica considering she went on dates with Morty. One of the producers said they have plans for Jessica so I think it'd be nice if she became a more consistent side character again like she used to be in early seasons. Maybe having her get with Morty proper would help him.
>>
>>154811402
Fuck you're right, I totally forgot about that. We saw in the second memory rick episode that this Beth's original Rick was very similar to prime though, maybe even recruited by him? Could be an interesting angle to explore if that version of Rick is still out there.
>>
>>154811396
>strange that Prime was so cool with it
I mean Prime was joking and shittalking wife guy even as he got beat to death, Prime's just the type to joke about everything.
>but we've also seen our Rick take his phoenix program down, yet was still able to hop dimensions into a new body
I guess it's valid that they could bring him back, would still feel hacky since that whole ending focuses on Rick's hollowness now that his life goal's revenge has finally been achieved.

Fuck it, bring him back and have him steal Morty Prime back or something equally dumb.

they're never gonna make Rick sober. It's like making Morty completely independent from Rick: it takes away from the core of the character and it's not funny to watch
>>
>>154811437
I think an episode about what his whole deal was, especially getting so offended at C137 turning him down that he sperged out and killed Diane across all dimensions could be really interesting. The concept of him being "prime" Rick, and how his own nihilism, pettyness, and self-destructive tendencies echoes across all other ricks is also an aspect I don't think really got explored enough in the few episodes he was in.

His whole space station made to fuck with Rick in the S6 premiere reminded me so much of Rick's "Morty Replacement Wheel" from the two crows episode, but like, a much more intense and evil version of it.

Most predictable Rick and Morty episode ever.
The moment we saw the sober Smith family, we knew Morty would drag them down to his level.
It's not impossible to make a good episode where "Rick and Morty go to a new world and ruin it," but the episode needs to have more going for it than that.

>>154810679
>Morty could have killed himself and resurrected in a vat in the basement to escape any number of situations, including this one
The two times the show has "brought back" operation phoenix since Tiny Rick are yet another example of how the writing has gone to shit.
>>
>>154811491
>>154811497
Time God Jessica could be cool and would likely help her relate to Morty. Being a kid who remembers eons of consciousness gives her a sense of perspective basically no one else on earth has (outside of the Smiths), which feels like it could compliment Morty's multidimensional and MANY multiple lifetimes experiences. But knowing the writers it's just too much canon so I'm not holding my breath.

The show needs a new villain, that's what it's missing, that's why it feels so aimless and direction less

Nigga no.
An actual real evil motherfucker, someone from outside the central finite curve, maybe... a Smart Jerry? Perhaps?
>>
Multiverses are narrative cancer and DC was right to slag off the concept
>>
>>154811518
I think the biggest problem is it's been 3 seasons since that and she's only popped up in one of the questionably canon anthology skits since then, seemingly fine. I wouldn't blame them for wanting to just pretend the Time God thing never happened, since it was clearly just meant to be a one off joke anyway.
>>
>>154811535
Smart/threatening Jerry's been done and funnily enough Beths have done the least multiverse shenanigans out of the entire family (Space Beths exist but they're not dimension hopping like even The Road Jerries are). I'd take an evil Summer like >>154810888, she's arguably the least explored of the cast and her already selfish attitude would lend quite nicely to a villain role.

The fate of Sober Rick's cat genuinely upset me. I don't know why of all the things in the show that upset me the most. I guess I have a specific mental gag reflex for anything in any show involving harming innocent animals as a source of humor.

I hate this fucking show and I hate Dan Harmon. I don't know why I watched it. Some episodes of this season were so bad I stopped watching or skipped them halfway like the one with Morty revisiting Snuffles.
The rare jokes I laugh at are not worth the constant barrage of parochial nihilist midwittery that only makes sense to a 13 year old.
I thought they disposed of the multiverse several seasons ago but apparently that didn't stick since they're still using it as a narrative crutch. The show can't exist without it since they need it to artificially shut down the possibility of any character growth, continuity or rational, satisfying solutions to plotlines.

It's less of an organic narrative and more of Harmon aggressively imposing his shitty, cynical, cocaine fuelled worldview onto the show and creating a total breakdown in natural writing.
>>
>>154811535
Ok hear me out

Diane, from a universe where she's the smartest, she lost her rick and is now trying to replace it with a new one but she wasn't content she wants a rick that is as smart as she is, that's when she discovers the central finite curve

Could be hype, definitely better than whatever the current writers are cooking
>>
>>154811589
The cat thing also bothered me immensely, that was totally unnecessary
I can't stand seeing animals getting hurt

>>
>>154811565
>Beths have done the least multiverse shenanigans out of the entire family
Wouldn't that be Summer? I think the only alt Summers I can think of are Cronenberg world and the night family one.
>>
>>154811565
I wouldn't be opposed to an alternate summer being the villain but what's a good motive for her? Why would she go after rick and morty?
>>
Everyone's losing their shit over the cat and not the fact Morty deliberately manipulated MIT Rick into a self destructive spiral because he knows only a self destructive Rick can invent portal travel.
>>
We are still missing an iconic alt Summer.
>>
>>154811626
That would've happened anyway because the message is that Rick is such a sociopath that even a sober version of him is only a hair's width away from snapping and turning into an insane loser like the rest of them. Blah blah blah. Water is wet. We knew this already.
>>
>>154811632
This ep and the Ted ep were kino though. I could care less that they repeat themselves because it's funny.
>>
>>154811632
It wouldn't have without Morty pushing him off the edge in this case, MIT Rick was fine and had impulse control, he'd been sober for 17 years and knew trying to invent portal travel would destroy him. Morty exploited both by telling Rick that Diane was killed by the omega device, his whole recovery was based on Diane leaving him over his alcoholism, which Morty learned at the AA session.
>>
>>154811649
All Rick requires to become a total sociopath is the tiniest push, which is usually given by a Morty.
>>
>>154802424

Rick and Morty is highly satanic because it promotes the false religion of atheism
>>
>>154811653
Precisely, which is why I find it weird that everyone's more bothered by how the cat went out than what Morty did to him.

Summer is a slut in every universe.
Mort was getting it in with Jessica and blue top Summer was probably still with her season 1 boyfriend. Too much of an alpha female to get cucked by Tricia like C-131.

Why weren't either Jessica or Ethan at the funeral?
Probably multiple-writer-syndrome.

Because at this point no one cares about Rick or Morty which apparently is the intention of the show. If all it takes to make them an incurable sociopath is the tiniest push and they never get ANY redemption for it why the fuck are we supposed to care? 9 seasons of them doing awful things and never getting any comeuppance or growth because the writers always go out of their way to justify them for being pieces of shit. The show makes it impossible to care for them especially since every other character is an NPC that exists to die.

Meanwhile the actual incidentals that are introduced in the same episode that they are killed in show more actual humanity and innocence like the cat. And as has been said, harming animals for a flat gag is horrible and stupid.

It's easy to articulate why this show fucking sucks. It gives you more reason to care about the incidentals than the actual main characters and then it just lets the main characters keep getting away with murdering the ones that actually resonate.
>>
>>154811685
Or lots of people just have toxoplasmosis

>>154807346
Anon we saw this happen. Prime Rick invented it and gave it to others but c-137 refused and when Diane was killed he invented it himself and he had already mostly figured it out before that prime said our Rick was the only other one who actually invented portal travel

Rick obviously hasn’t been drunk in decades so being trashed and having to deal with his daughter and fucking Jerry was too much for him to handle being confronted when he was trying to help Morty. Like of course he wasn’t going to throw Morty in there first. Ah my ex wife’s cat, perfect.
>>
>>154811701
cats are parasites that psyopped human into believing they are are a necessary companion to civilisation because they got toxoplasmosed into believing that cats are epic rodent hunters keeping granaries safe when in reality the farm cats just spent their time sleeping and torturing birds for lulz. The reason they bring the occasional rat head to current day cat owners is because they realised over the millenia they would have to do this le sigh from time to time so that the human wouldn't just eat them for being useless.

I mean prime still killed every Diane ever. And he tauned our Rick and said how he was the only other one to actually invent time travel. If he was just an invention of Rick to rationalize Diane's death why make so many hoops and having to rely on evil morty to take him down.

There's a delay between Rick dying and the estate sale happening, Rick just got in first before estate sale Rick did. I assume the delay is intentional to facilitate Ricks universe hopping from their fuckups. So if there's no claimant moments after death, then estate sale Rick comes in and it becomes a free for all. Alternatively it's just a gag and you should treat it as such.

>>154811998
I'm actually kinda glad they didn't drag it out. He went out on a high note and they weren't given enough air time to screw him up in any way. If they really wanted to bring him back, Rick for some reason has a body with Rick prime's hair do in his basement that was never explained, and their cybernetics got caught up in each other for a good portion of the fight.

An assertive Jerry has complete dominion over Beth, and with complete dominion over Beth there isn't much Rick can do.
