is it a good thing Summer goes on adventures with them now? No more room for good jokes or storytelling when we got two EDGELORDS to deal with.
>>
>>94296390
I think seeing her evolution in response to the wacky science-fiction adventures in comparison to Morty is quite interesting. Morty has become quite a bit more jaded, but still tries to keep some semblance of morality. He even calls out when Rick goes to far at times. Summer, on the other hand, seems to have started reveling in her grandfather's nihilism, to the point of bloodthirst.
>>
>>94296436
Yeah, but the ending of S3E2.

And the bit with her as a wife was clearly meant to mirror Rick's wife.
>>
>>94296390
What part of her being able to come on adventures means that she'll be in all of them?
>>
I seriously doubt she'll be in that many of them. Rick himself said sometimes. I think this was necessary in a way due to the fallout of the divorce, but a lot of the clips and the intro suggest it's still mostly Rick and Morty, or at least no less than season 2.

Well, someone has to hang out with Beth and Jerry for subplots.
Hope you're all ready for Beth and Jerry to go on dates.

Summer is the most enjoyable character in the show. Rick is mostly an amoral jackass, sometimes you can get behind him but more often than not there isn't much to like

and Morty is basically a one note whine machine who rarely likes being on adventures

Summer is actually relateble since unlike Morty she enjoys having a crazy life and unlike Rick she isn't dead to the joys of the world

Because the show went downhill at season 2, fans are testy about quality.

They think lady-penned scripts will automatically be worse than intergalactic cable, or middling at best. They don't want a mediocre season after the last one so any ingredient that isn't fomulated to the exacting standards of the legendary first season is automatically recipe for disaster. Evidently, part of it is the carefully calculated estrogen levels among writing staff (???).

maybe I'm nuts but I liked season two way more than season one

I'm not liking the way the show took with this season at all. They've made Rick, Summer, and Morty way too nihilistic and unfun to root for anymore. They just kill people, do some stupid shit, kill more people, break 4th wall, etc. It feels like the new writers only knew a fraction about what makes it good and are just going though the motions. Every episode gets less and less interesting as time goes on. And of all the episodes you could use to get right back into their adventures, why use Mad Max? Animation has done this trope to death now. If there is one more cartoon that does this I'm gonna cringe. Literally every mainstream cartoon has done it and Rick and Morty did not make it more interesting.

I hate how they are handling Beth and Jerry too. Beth feels like a plot device and they just fucking shit on Jerry when he's always been the most interesting character to me. I wish the show was about him and his divorce right now honestly. Just break from the darkest adventures and do something else for a bit, it might shake things up. Which this episode has shown it hasn't been doing. Instead they try to top themselves every episode to be their darkest adventure, which will blow up in their face real quick when people leave because it's not what they came for. I came for good characters and fantastic worlds, not edge, teenage angst, and Rick's increasingly horrible antics. It's just depressing and hollow.

Last thing I wanted to say was that it just isn't fun anymore. I started watching it because Rick and Morty were the ultimate team and every joke they did was so well crafted and clever. Now its just literally "BURP, NO GOD MORTY, I'M A PICKLE, BURP, I HATE YOU AND I NEVER CARED FOR YOU OR YOUR DAD MORTY. BURP!" They've made him so punchable. I hope that's what they're building up to because I'm not going to put up with this forever he ruins himself and the other characters.

The female writers are the shitty Hollywood Liberal kind so it's expected, but damn.

This, honestly. Summer really is the best character in the show. Morty always flip flops in his personality and Rick is a giant meme

>>94298127
you are nuts
>>
>>94298923
Whether or not he cares for Summer or Morty, the only reason he bothered to go back for them was because Beth would be upset with him if he didn't. What kind of ramifications could that have? How could any Beth being upset in one universe (or any universe for that matter) have any impact on his agenda?
I'd say that calls into question whether Rick really is 100% nihilistic after all. He clearly places some value on his family's interactions with him.

>I wish the show was about him and his divorce right now honestly.

he isnt nihilistic, he just loses inteerest quickly. He clearly cares about them, especially since being in a universe without them is out of the question. He actually says if he leaves them he'll have to go through the trouble of finding a new Morty and Summer, as being without them isnt an option

And his explanations for why are always as nihilistic as possible. He claims they're just tools and conveniences. At least his explanation for Morty is. I can't recall if the writers have given any reason to Summer or the rest of his family yet or if they're going to just let it be as you say.

He says that, but then the beginning of season 3 has him aping his rant at the end of the pilot episode.
For whatever reason, he vacillates between warm and cold to manipulate those around him. We still don't know what his end game is.
>>
>>94299327
Because Rick and Summer episodes are usually about them being closer to equals, where she actually does stuff rather than cry about his ideology like Morty does. Episodes like the one where Summer got the job with the Devil or the season 1 finale were good because the interaction between them was more natural to me

Maybe season 1 and parts of season 2 Summer had an interesting dynamic with Rick for thr occasional episode but her dynamic now as just Rick 2.0 is just boring as Hell.
>>
>>94299519
>Rick and Rick is better then Rick and Morty
yes honestly. Morty is inconsistent, hypocritical and holier than thou. The universe of the show bends to make his decisions stupid no matter how much sense they make (like the goodbye moonman one or helping the girl in the purge episode) and he is passive, voicing his complaints and doing something at the very end rather than right from the start

With Rick and Summer, it's like he's going against someone who's him but has a different opinion. When he proves himself right or wrong it has more weight to it

This shows how fundamentally retarded /co/ is with development of the cartoons they sperg out over. A random writer gets their name slapped on an episode, the drafts the original female writers bring in get cut to pieces and the entire room finishes. Their original drafts for their previous seasons went the same way, most of their original ideas and dialog goes out the window then they use it as an outline for the rest of the episode. The bitch who wrote it brought in a script about going into books and Harmon/Roland/the rest of the writers redirected it into what they had for the final version. They even talk about it in some of their interviews specifically.

It's shitty because it's a decline of quality in general from Harmon and Roland or they'd have every opportunity to save each episode, and completely change it around like the one that just aired. More accurately, though, you have unreasonable standards because you see a cunts name and start shitting your pants and throwing a fit.

The humorous thing about liberals like Dan Harmon is that they love the ideals of liberalism until they actually have to pay for it, then they turn into evil white-right-wing drumfss.

Honestly the A plot/B plot format is one of the shows weakest points. It's rare that they pull out an episode where both plots are solid. Even though I thought last night's episode was fairly weak, I liked that the Beth scenes were short and to the point. Hoping for more of that this season.

Since you won't stop spamming this meme until somebody slaps the cock out of your mouth, here's what you got wrong:

3. They got their health benefits almost immediately. They unionized on a Thursday and got their healthcare on the following Monday without a day of strike.

Not really dude. The vast majority of people had legitimate complaints, but those were drowned out by the very small amount of actual sexist criticism that the media focused on. Sony even deleted actual valid critique of their trailer but left the sexist comments on their videos. The media did the exact same thing with the latest Star Trek series. There were articles made completely dismissing criticism based on a single digit number of tweets in that case. Shouting sexist is one of the most effective ways of deflecting criticism these days, and hardly anyone fact checks.

I feel like they think more detailed animations and more saturated design will mean an "improved" Rick & Morty. I really hope the second episode is an outlier because it was a shit episode. I still have hopes that it's going to be a good season since the first episode was good.

This is truth. I also appreciate, as someone who had a horrible teenaged sister, that they don't try to soften her or whatever the fuck. /co/ be like "she's an awful bitch!", but I mean, yeah, that's what a lot of teenage girls are like, especially in dysfunctional homes where their parents can't cooperate enough to discipline them. Where the hell else can you see that accurately depicted?

Haley on American Dad isn't that bright but isn't sadistic or spiteful usually, Meg on FG is just there to be shat on, Candice from P&F is a nice balance between being the butt of jokes and an actual character, but still, she's never mean.

Remember the memory parasites episode, when she had no problem killing who she thought were lifelong friends and Morty flashed back to her kicking him in the nads for no reason? "She's real. She's my bitch of a sister."

>Summer is actually relateble since unlike Morty she enjoys having a crazy life and unlike Rick she isn't dead to the joys of the world

I would agree with this if it wasn't for her suicidal recklessness that we've seen from her in the last episode. Maybe it was just the grief of the divorce, but it sorta feels like she's only participating because she's at a no risk position as a main character? Maybe she really is just suicidally nihilistic, but it's a dramatic shift from her generally normal personality in seasons 1 and 2.

See, and that's my biggest complaint with Summer so far. I'm hoping her sucidial nihilism will eventually mellow out because it's just not that interesting. I'd prefer, especially if they are going to keep doing plots with Summer, that they take an approach similar to season 2 where Morty and Summer sort of trade off on being the voice of reason. Morty gets boring constantly having to be the voice of reason, and Summer is just boring when she's just Rick's lapdog.

>every thread from now on is gonna be autists blaming their dislike of new episodes on women

I swear there was a time /co/ was better than this.

The episode was good, it wasn't amazing but it wasn't bad at all, there have been much worse in both s1 and s2.

also if you're one of those people who always shits on s2 then please get the fuck out, the show isn't for you. s2 basically objectively obliterated s1 and if you didn't like it at all you had your expectations waaay too high.

I mean christ there is so much more to talk about with this episode but nope almost every post is just "muh women writers" rather than discussing the actual content of the show.

Personally I wanted to discuss what people think will happen to Jerry--will he ever man up and fight for getting his kids back? Or will he realize that no longer having the responsibilities of a father and living the NEET life is better for him? Will the universe keep shitting on him like in the final scene or will he ever have some redemption from being the beta he usually is? like shit that's just one character that the new episode offers stuff to discuss about.
>>
>>94303293
Literally nothing of worth will happen to Jerry except maybe accidentally getting a hooker pregnant and starting a new family by accident all over again

His source is the how the last two seasons treated Jerry

okay but we are no longer in the last two seasons.

That guy was probably the only true "nihilist" the show had. Rick pretends to not give a shit and Summer is just basic bitch daddy issues.

Hmm...
>>
>>94303864
You conveniently left out the Purge parody, that giant head episode was 50% jokes about people saying an nonsense word and Interdimensional cable 2.

People tend to forget that Harmon literally stopped trying as hard at this point. Did everyone forget all the interviews where he said the Schrodinger episode was a bitch to make and he wanted to make more episodes like the Purge one?
>>
>>94303864
Yeah. Tiny Cute High school risk is a much more high brow concept then PICKLE rick!

Take that women!

I really want this so bad but it's not looking good. Even when Jerry is out of the house it's literally all about him. The kids are angry at dad but nobody seems to give two shits about Beth.

The main problem is that the writers have to be careful with the jokes that Summer may be involved in sadly.

>>94303293
S2 was shit compared to S1 outside one or two episodes

I agree with the rest
>>
>>94303864
>>94304165
See, the issue here isn't the sex of the person who wrote the episode - it's the fact that it's a movie parody episode. The Jurassic Park episode was bad, the Purge episode was bad, the Mad Max episode was bad. Really the only one that worked was the Inception one because it was so far removed from the movie (arguably both Inception episodes if you could the simulation episode).
>>
>>94304496

Fixed

>>94304172
>Tiny Cute High school risk is a much more high brow concept then PICKLE rick!

Actually it was. Especially with how clever they satirized the "teen angst" thing and that Rick could only talk about his problems through music.
>>
>Summer
You know she's only getting fronted more because Harmon's new team is mainly women and he's useing that to draw attention away from the fact that he went full Scott Walker on his actual team when they unionized to get basic healthcare.
>>
>>94304161
>we get a Mad Max 4 ripoff that does more to the show and characters than any original premise ever did
Uhh it's just a rehash of shit from The Purge episode
>>
>>94305663
When was it ever implied that she was? She's had a boyfriend from the beginning.
>>
>>94306058
She definitely felt Mary Sue-ish this time around.

Also, I prefer it to be either Rick and Morty or Rick and Summer adventures, all three of them at the same time don't have a good dynamic.
>>
>>94305955
>Interdimensional Cable 2 is the best episode

There is no dimension where this is true.
>>
>>94305049
Not really. She spent most of this episode acting out and being a dumbass. Which was very reasonable and in no way PC.
>>
>>94306137
>Interdimensional Cable 2
was at least miles better than the 1st one
>>
>>94305955
>>94306231
holy fuck, this is the taste of the people who are bitching about women in this thread.

>>94306058
She has been a third main character since season 1
>>
>>94301121
You're aware the guys that make rick and morty don't own cartoon network, right? If there's a union and the people that run the company go fuck no get the fuck out it isn't a thing where one show head can wave their magic wand and make it all okay. They can fire whoever they want and go get the fuck out too if you don't like it. Harmon probably got the choice of continuing, albeit pissed, or taking his moral high ground and leaving the show. And after community's retarded shit he just dealt with I doubt he cared enough.

It's on the adult swim website anon.

>>94299722
>With Rick and Summer, it's like he's going against someone who's him but has a different opinion.

The problem with that is Rick is the smartest being in multiple universes and Summer is a basic teenage girl. Her opinion means jack shit.
>>
>>94296528
Cooties, anon. Duh. Cuck.
>>
>>94304324
>>94304396
the thing that pisses me off about the show is that it never takes the piss out of beth for being an alcoholic bitch. At least not as much as they shit on Jerry and change his personality every episode. Seriously it takes one episode for him to turn back into a weasel after fighting his evil mind version of his wife. This is not good writing. Jokes shouldn't dominate storytelling, that's how you end up as family guy.

Exactly. I don't get where this 'Summer's a mary sue that controls fire and does no wrong remember the good old days when she just did all the same shit she does now but I liked it more because knowing someone bleeding out their cunt is at some point in the writers room triggers me' retardation is coming from.

The humorous thing about idioooo.. Ah, I mean conservatives, is that for the life of them they can't distinguish "nuance" from "double standard" and will straw-man a liberal position to include opinions and ideas it doesn't hold.

i feel like summer's role when she started going on adventurers was to be the straightman
>>
>>94296390
Wait, so it's "Rick, Summer and Morty" now?
>>
>>94308252
This. I only got the connection of the post apocalyptic wasteland and the inner turmoil the kids were facing inside thanks to some anon pointing it out on a thread because there was so much going on. To be fair I think Rick did vaguely mention it but I still think the episode would have done better if they toned down the Mad Maxx references.
>>94301393
The only time they nailed it for me was Ricksty Minutes if that even counts.
>>
>>94298843
Top tier producer, designer. Not so much a writer. Her writing under Craig was passable but her solo writing needed propping up from others. She is at the very least, rather talented but perhaps more so in design and world building given her penchant for starting series rather than finishing them.
>>
>>94300480
Her comics aren't great but this is correct, her cartoon is pretty good.
Still though, that's one right answer in a thread trying to find answers

Ghostbusters 2016 wasn't even written by women. It was written and directed by a man. A straight white man at that, so there's angle for people to whine "MUH DIVERSITY RUINS EVERYTHING."
