>Reddit-core THE show
>the creator and the guy making all the voices and IS the show gets metoo'd and reddit now hates him, even if he was found innocent
Is this show still considered reddit now that they hate him?

Couldn't even get through one episode of this show

Season 7. Which has a few stinkers and the new voices, but still has more good episodes than bad ones, and a couple of my all time favorites.
7 might be the last good season ever, because it seems like they tried to compensate for losing Roiland's voice by using a bunch of their stronger story concepts which they were sitting on and otherwise would have held off on for longer

Roiland fucking off was the best thing for the show, now Harmon can take his silly scifi cartoon as seriously as he wants to.

It is impossible to tell any episode apart.

My favorite part of that whole thing was the thicc girl with the giant tits who still made a Rick and Morty concept album complete with a music video after the DMs Roiland sent her.

During seasons 4, 5 and 6 Roiland was doing the voices from his home studio and nothing else, no involvement with the writing, and avoiding contact with most of the production staff. When he left it didn't make a difference in what Harmon could or couldn't do, it just made the show feel less authentic to some

7 is the worst season.
>>
>>219451776
This is during the airing of the 2nd and arguably best season and the show's peak.
Imagine having created such a phenomenon of a show before the szechwan peak and texting not one but like 7 underaged girls with this faggy shit.

Couldn't he just have walked in to any comic-con on earth and pick up endless dorky chicks?
>>
>>219452867
He was a sex pest. They're generally too awkward to actually pick up women and only get laid only because the law of averages, aggressively throw yourself at hundreds to sleep with a handful, and their celebrity clout.
>>
>>219452368
imo 7 is the BEST season after the golden age of 1 and 2, and felt like a return to form until it turned out season 8 mostly sucked
>>
>>219453143
It was awful. The episode where Rick and Jerry swap minds, the spaghetti episode, Rise of the Numbericons: The Movie...

Terrible season.
>>
>>219453213
Rise of the Numbericons is the only truly bad one of those. You are in the minority disliking the other two.
It also has Unmortricken (Rick Prime arc finale), Rickfending Your Mort (clip show with the observers), and Fear No Mort (Denny's fear hole) which are this show at its best
>>
>>219453353
>Rise of the Numbericons is the only truly bad one of those
No, you're just saying that because that episode is indefensible. Theres also the retarded Quato episode and the one where the psychiatrist hooks up with the president. Awful season.
>>
>>219453557
I enjoy The Jerrick Trap and That's Amorte, I think they are good, and most audiences agree with me.
The kuato one and the Poopybutthole/Hugh Jackman one are bad, but that's still just 3 bad ones out of 10
>>
>>219453794
>The Jerrick Trap
Lame body horror plot that doesn't really do anything with its concept.
>That's Amorte
Retread of previous episodes (e.g. montage) that relies on the cheap shock value of a nonsensical set up (even by cartoon standards). Terrible episodes.
>that's still just 3 bad ones out of 10
You're admitting that 30% of the season is trash. The episode where POTUS and the shrink get together is also a forgettable retread that borders between bad and terrible.

Season 8 was better but still bad. The series started declining after season 2 but 7 is where the series becomes unwatchable for the majority of fans. Complete wreckage with almost no redeeming qualities.

>uhhh actually nothing matters there are infinite universes there's no god and morality doesn't exist
okay, why should i care about the show then. this is exactly the problem with shows that do multiverse plots. should i care about the family? they're all iredeemable assholes lol. and rick is a hypercompetent god that always comes on top. it explores some cool sci fi concepts but overall i find the series to be shit in concept and execution. some bits are funny though
>>
>>219455570
There are plenty of things which clearly do matter to Rick. There's a lengthy scene where he explains how his friend Birdperson matters to him, despite the infinite multiverse. He just sometimes acts like nothing matters because he enjoys putting on that ultra cynical drunk persona

The focal point of the first two seasons are that Rick is struggling with the fact that reality is infinite, and that as a master of reality, nothing really matters, but he can't help but want to be connected to his family. That's why the first two seasons are utter dynamite: the throughline is that everything Rick does is colored by him wanting to be his family. It's season 3 and onward that mucks this up because despite Jerry being right at the end of season 2 - Rick's actions put his family's lives at risk - and it seems like Rick accepts this fact and opts to get as far away from them as possible in galactic federation prison, despite this, season 3 makes it so Rick's plan was actually to get captured so he could destroy the federation from the inside and sabotage Beth and Jerry's marriage so that Rick could be the de facto head of Beth's side of the family. It makes no sense for Rick to have wanted this, not one bit, and that's why people subconsciously understood even back in the show's heyday that something was wrong with season 3.

Season 3 is not without heart, however. Rick's arc is that despite being the most powerful man in the universe, he can't stand between Beth and Jerry (again, there was no reason for him to want to stand between Beth and Jerry) and that for all his godlike powers and touting that nothing matters, he decides to stay with his family. Even gods get lonely.

Season 4 and on they just stopped caring. There are no more real arcs, no more real character intrigue. Rick already knows his presence harms his family, he knows he's a god who wants to be with his family, but he continues to put them in danger over and over. There are no more lessons learned from season 4 onward. Rick and Morty became another adult cartoon with above-average animation and sometimes above-average writing, but it was never as special as seasons 1 and 2.

>>219457077
Paragraph 1 is 100% true and the summa of why R&M failed along with the hormonal profile of the writers
>>
>>219457358
Bringing on women writers certainly didn't help anything.
>Hey, our show is making record numbers and the whole world likes it with our current team of writers as we are now. You know what we need? Women writers!
Fucking horseshit retarded ass decision.
