Rick and Morty is pretty entertaining, aside from those shitty interdimensional cable episodes. It's not deep or profound, however. It's just a sci-fi comedy.

My brother got me to suffer through the first two seasons of that show, and if I could sum it up in two words it would be "pretentious" and "unpleasant."

It's not, it's just the fanbase like >>93259640 said.

>>
>>93260007
Yeah, the show would be better if it was just a sci-fi comedy and not trying to be 2deep4u.
>>
It's not bad. The fans are certainly very cringeworthy and the entirety is congealed in Reddit. Even then, It has a couple of good things for it.
>>
yeah but who cares

>>93260006
>pretentious
As a principal I feel compelled to ask anyone who uses that word to tell me what they think it's pretending to be?

It's alright, I'd like it more if people weren't all over it's jock. I also would like it more if Venture Bros didn't fit its niche as sci-fi comedy show about parental failure.

>>93263144
I do love seeing all these wounded egos pop out of the wood-work every time some pop culture comedy throws in a few math and science jokes (with varying success) into their repertoire. It's best with XKCD, but RnM and Futurama are good, too.
>>
>>93260349
It doesn't try to be deep though. The retarded fanbase just reads way too much into it.
>>
The major lazer cartoon.
>>
>>93260349
It isn't trying to. Having a character express their personal philosophy at a key time is not 2deep4u, It's just the fanbase who mistake that character's statements as the official position of the creators, and make image macros of the quotes to share on Reddit. Most of that stuff they see as profound is actually just gallows humor in the show anyway, which makes it all the more stupid.
>>
>>93259629
You just don't like normies to the point you don't want to associate with them even because of cartoons you may watch. R&M just vulgar enough to modern normie audience. Imagine your favourite cartoon will became popular tomorrow among nu males and edgy kids because of some bizzare reason. Will you hate it too?

It's funny because Rick prays to God several times during a crisis, then when he is 'saved' or survives, he retorts with 'in your face' and not today God', indicating that deep down, Rick does believe in a higher power.

There's also that part where he shames his family for being on their phones and shit during Christmas because "You know Jesus, our savior, was born today."

Rick just says shit to be rude and mean to people because he's a miserable person.

How does it do that? With fart jokes and pop culture references and making everything look like sex organs? I'm not really seeing where it's pretending to greater importance or culture here. Everything in it is either meant to be funny or is about character drama. It's not didactic so it's not trying to set itself up as teaching morals or anything (hard to do when basically the entire cast is shitty people) and it definitely doesn't pretend to be high culture or anything near that.

Yep. Also checks out. And I did answer your question. You asked what I meant by "pretentious" and I gave you an answer. Doesn't surprise me that it went over your head. Also, I feel sorry for the teachers at your school if that's how low your opinion of them is.

Anon I'm fairly certain both of those companies are owned by time warner.

You should rephrase it to

>pffft normie trash, it's not as think as you deep it is

Decades old concept gets remade for the umpteenth time
>ooohh so good why has no one watched this yet?
>This million dollar property needs our support

That being said I like rick and morty, just not enough to brush off Dan Harmons passive aggression oozing out of every pore of the show.
>Lol marriage is a joke because mine was lol
>lol look at us setting up an interesting cliff hanger, make fun of you for wanting more by coming up with a bullshit excuse to delay production to finish writing it than wrapping two whole plot lines in one half decent episode than delay this shit again because we can

That last one got outta hand I'll admit

There's also an episode where Rick rants about love just being a biological force and isn't real, then in another episode Rick tries to kill himself because his hive mind gf breaks up with him.

Hypocrisy is a major part of rick's character.

>>93259629
Also, it's summer, where the fuck is it. Is it that hard to produce 13 half hour episodes in 2 1/2 years. Lazy ass fucking slow bastards man. There's no budget excuse either, adult swim is throwing everything at it.
>>
>>93265422

Creators made it clear they were having disagreements as to where the series should be going. I read we're not getting inter dimensional cable anymore so I think Dan put his foot down with regards to the type of humor Justin is used to and that led to everything getting delayed. Beyond that, it just shows Adult Swim is OK letting creators take their time. Same with Boondocks and Venture Bros. If it means a better show so be it. Season two definitely had some shit episodes so if they can get their asses on the same page I think the show can officially kick itself into a proper golden age.
>>
>>93263182
This. If anything it's making fun of those retards.
Its just kids and normies "whoaa he don't believe in god and life is meaningless" female tier existencial thoughts/babys first existencial crisis
>>
>>93265483
I'd rather have them dole them out over months like Gravity Falls then. Or have adult swim schedule them as they are finished. It's so long between seasons I start to lose interest. The April Fools premiere was talked about for weeks. Just release a new one every month and they're fine.
>>
>>93262915

What would you say his alignment is? For the longest time I was going for chaotic neutral but now I think I put him in lawful evil
>>
>>93262915
I hope this is bait
>>
>>93268599

I think chaotic neutral sums it up pretty much. He just wants to do what he wants to do and doesn't care who gets hurt along the way.
>>
>>93268630
I dunno the season premiere pushed him into evil for me
Destroying a government and wiping out countless amounts of morty's and himselves (god that's awkwrd to write) merely because Jerry slighted him? That kinda pushed him into the evil category for me, I think he wants to be neutral but is far to emotional
>>
>>93268703
Yeah, that's true. Still, he can't really be LE if he's doing shit like that, so maybe NE?
>>
>>93268725
I was only think lawful because of whatever laws of science he knows (believes?) it's hard to pin that down considering he mathematically proved and overcame magic.
>>
>>93268776

LE is usually things like Nazis or Black Knights who live by their own code. With how much Rick doesn't give a shit, I'd say he's NE at best and CE at worst.
>>
>>93268599
>>93268630
He has killed WAY too many people to be anything other than evil. Not sure why it's so hard for fans of the show to realize that.
