Ya'll Up on Rick and Morty??

[feelosofer]

I was just thinking this as I entered the thread. A victim of its own success. Expectations are too high and they keep spacing these joints out making expectations rise even more.

I was expecting every line to be epic. I’m over analyzing, looking for jokes within jokes. Expecting beyond perfection and setting myself up for disappointment.

This show is like brilliant underground rapper that dropped 3 classic albums but got mainstream success and he's still dope but its not the same. With that said the crew has earned the benefit of the doubt so we'll see.

The was a big "meh" for me.

Couldn't make it past 2 episodes. Tf were they thinking making that shyt.
Straightand an insult to R&M fans.

thanks for the heads up gentlemen...I shan’t be wasting my time

 

[The Guru]

This ep was weak..overengineered. Maybe next time.

The Wall storyline is worth the price of admission. Like a classic R&M/Community movie.
I skipped the alien storyline honestly. They need to release a version of the season that is only The Wall story.

Like the humour and intelligence is still there, but the eps in this season feels disjointed from the rest, like every episode before was it’s own story, but there was still this overarching theme of each season with things like evil morty ect.

every episode this season feels completely random and separate from literally everything else

Y'all gotta trust Rick n Morty..that being said I like that the episodes feel random. I don't need everything to connect honestly.

 

[ORDER_66]

Almost did a 9/11...

Yeah beth blame the saudi's....

Rick saying that shyt outloud...

 

[boriquaking]

Train episode was dope, last night was a little more of a miss i think

 

[Beer Drinker]

Summer is hilarious.

Being real, do any of y’all see this show being able to be consistently brilliant the way it has been for another 60 episodes?
Iv enjoyed Every episode of this season and laughed at every one of them, but I don’t think I’d rate a single one of these 6 on the level of Rick Potion 9, Meeseeks, Total Rickall, Purge, Tales from The Citedel, Pickle Rick, Rickshank Redemption..ect.

like, season 4 is still dope and beyond any other adult cartoon, But season 4 is definitely it’s weakest so far

Interesting points being made here. I still think the show is funny and there have definitely been episodes that line up with the best ("Edge of Tomorty," "Rattlestar Ricklactica"), but I feel like it's becoming too self-aware for its own good. The show knows the way everybody looks at it, and it's almost like it wants to be something that it knows that it can no longer be. It overachieved immensely (in terms of popularity). Name another Adult Swim show that reached Simpsons/Family Guy/South Park status in such a short time.

I don't think the show can keep it up for another 60 episodes. People were already saying it fell off in season three. I feel like the show has enough creativity that it can keep the momentum for a long time, but when it falls, it's going to fall hard.
