did normies ruin Rick and morty? it seems like all of a sudden,

>>38131091
How did normies "ruin" a show for you? Do normies actually have an influence and effect the show's writing?

So if a show becomes popular and a lot of people (normies) like it, then it becomes shit? kek.

When it came in 2013, it was never underground. Lots of "normie" hipsters watch adult swim.

>>38131153
holy shit I knew a faggot like you would come in and try to "school" me. honestly fuck off. annoying as fuck. I clearly wrote "I'm not gonna stop watching it because normies are, but still" for a reason.

You know what the fuck I'm talking about but you're too hung up on seeming mature and shit. fuck off your high horse dude.

>>38131247
They're right about it never being underground though

>>38131299
probably true, kek. I must've simply been out of the loop then.

It's not earnest, it hides behind its cynicism and lax attitude. I dislike shows that do this.

Lol, that implies normies watching it obviously irritate you. It's a tv show and "normies" watching it has little negative effect on the show. In fact it's better for the show to be "popular" so it won't get canceled or some shit. You're fucking pathetic m8

stay mad that "normals" watch the same shows as you, you petty faggot. lmao.

>>38131091
Who the fuck cares how many people like something? The content is exactly the same as it was before. Just like what you like and don't get so fucking butthurt over popularity.

Yes, being "underground" is cool in theory but in reality it's a stupid fucking concept. Things get popular for a reason. If it stayed "underground" it would have to be shit. So unless you want to like awful things just so you look cooler go ahead.

Otherwise shut the fuck up.

>>38131247
>I'm not gonna stop watching it because normies are, but still
Then why bring it up you stupid faggot.

"I DON'T CARE ABOUT SOMETHING SO I'M GOING TO SPEND ALL MY TIME TALKING ABOUT IT."

Yes, I liked it too until I realized everyone else does. Then my interest in it faded. I'm not even trying to be "hipster" or different I just genuinely lost interest when normies started liking it.

>>38131091
At what point was this show any good? I loathed it from the minute I tried watching it.

Rick and Morty is shit to begin with.

So, "ruining" it is like adding another turd to the toilet.

And, no, I'm not contrarian -- because that implies intentional dislike. I've tried watching it and it's just not good.

>>38131091
I know how you feel. That's happened with a number of shows I liked, including Invader Zim.

>>38131153
The problem is that you can no longer even say something like, "I like Rick and Morty," because it's ceased to be a show unto itself and it's become this kind of social phenomenon. Saying "I like Rick and Morty" now means "I am associating myself with a particular cohort of people who also say they like Rick and Morty." It's virtually impossible to communicate that you actually find intrinsic value in the show itself since it's been usurped to function as a badge of social proof.

The creator will cave into the pressure given by the normie masses. He wont like it but the amount of money coming in will influence him eventually.

First the jokes will tone down. It wont be noticeable at first- the sex and rape jokes will be the first to go then the violence will become less gore and dark humor and more cartoony and full of explosions.

Then they will start to make more political humor. They will start with an easy target like Donald Trump, they will move onto general conservative bashing and antifa targets.

The characters will stay the same but Jerry will be an even larger punching bag, perhaps they will focus on how much of a pathetic white man he is and how empowering it is for Beth to move beyond him, perhaps she will get an alien or black boyfriend. Expect more of Summer as well.

Rick will still be an asshole but his direction will change. His targets will be more representative towards real world issues such as an overbearing government or xenophobic alien species.

Morty will become more of the voice of reason as he gains a spine and this will direction of certain moral choices being made. Not when it comes to violence or greed, because those will always be funny without crossing the line; expect him to be making more social choices and interacting with a diverse range of alien characters.

>>38132217
That's not "caving into the normie masses," that's the show getting renewed long after the creative vision behind it has gotten tired of it and left. If it hadn't been so successful it would have just ended, but since it was they find some hack writers to take over and keep that cash cow alive. That's the way it goes in television.

>>38132186
these failed normies don't care about that. they actively enjoy being cohesive to things they're supposed to like. it's a shame they're so needy, therefore rejected.

>>38131849

>>38131945
I liked the miniverse episode and the dog episode. Creative nonviolence is fun to watch, you can see the SWAT dad and Snowball required good voice acting during their emotional scenes. But the improv is forced and tired and the show beats you in the head with the nihilism meme.

>>38131091
It was never an underground show
Its airs on Adult Swim, a heavily watched programming slot on a network that is delivered by every major cable and satellite provider in the US. Even for people who don't pay for TV, streaming sites shilled the shit out of it even in the first season and torrents exist for everything.
It was known by normalfags since day 1, but unlike redditor scum or cretins on /tv/, normalfags just talked about it in person or on Facebook. Now, instead of just being regarded as a regular, albeit entertaining, TV show, its another strawman and scapegoat for internet arguments.

If something is good it becomes popular, usually

it was never underground, but i get what OP means
while the viewer count doesn't change the show or its content, the way the viewers act in regards to the show can seriously change the way some people perceive it
i used to like rick and morty too but the fanbase completely ruined the show for me

Anyone got that image about those guys who make a game then invite one freind who in turn invites another freind, and then women show up for free attention and then chads show up because there are low competition women around. And eventually the whole game is just an excuse for normies to hang out destroying the whole game?

Haha wtf man. Adult swim had made so many bad animation shows it's unreal. I'm assuming this is bait but some people genuinely have these views. Rick and Morty is a solid show. It isn't perfect but it's well executed and anyone saying otherwise is a contrarian. Disliking it is ok though. I didn't enjoy the 2nd half of season 2.

As early as the beginning of season 2, that's when they began aggressively vending merch.
I got pissed off, because I hate hearing normies talk about shit I know about and having the "wrong" opinions that I hate, but I just keep headphones on all the time unless I'm working or in class.
Hearing those scum discuss anime is even worse.

>>38131091
I was never that in to it. I've only watched 2 episodes but I liked them.

>>38138219
I wish they would do another run of the DVD. Isn't it supposed to be watched like a movie?

All I care about is that they keep the fan service (as in reddit's favorite references and characters) to a minimum and keep moving the show forward with original shit.

The show was normie since the end of season one, well it was normie before that but it wasn't popular

>>38131091
>it seems like all of a sudden, the herd hopped on it. I swear it used to be more of an underground show.
You're fucking delusional famalam, normies were on Rick and Morty the moment it started airing. It's pretty much Reddit: The show.

>>38131091
The moment they switched from focusing on character interaction to simply focusing on the story and lore, it took the mlp route. Was good in the beginning, then it changed to fit the audience.

>>38139925

I fucking sick of ricks consuls shit, it was clever the first time but now they going to far deep into it,

Rick and Normie was never good as a whole, there are just a few good episodes. It's the kind of mindless shit that "normalfags" eat up because it pretends to be smart. I'll allow it to be my background noise if it's on.
Some of the porn is really nice though.

regardless of how anyone feels about this particular show, it's totally spurious to imply that a widening fan base can't change a hobby/media product in a negative way. i have an incredibly hard time believing that anyone with any niche hobbies at all has never seen this happen at least once.

I'm not really a fanboy of this show but I can picture what you feel. You just lost your safes pace and it's invaded by people that have almost nothing in common with you. But there will certainly have no influence on the show quality, just a good influence on the money the show will make. A real fear you could have is that they won't stop the show when they won't have story to tell, and the show will turn as shit, but I don't even know if it'll ever happen.
To summarise you just lost your secret club, you have to get over it. Many people have lost their secret club before you because something become popular

Rick & Morty ruined Rick & Morty. I've seen it, it's not funny. It's just awkward and annoying and cringe-inducing.

>>38143835
>You just lost your safes pace and it's invaded by people that have almost nothing in common with you.
That safe space secret club shit is really gay, especially for something like a TV show.
How do you even "invade" something that can't be controlled? They aren't holding the creative team hostage, OP is just being a fedoralord because something that he enjoys is being enjoyed by another living creature in this universe.

>>38143851
It's perfect for the late teens/early 20's who grew up on Harry Potter, tumblr and other shite. Adventure Time and Gravity Falls are the same too.

Rick and Morty is for edgy teens who think that they are unique and actually believe they think differently from everyone else

>>38143835
nah dude, it's not about having a secret club or a safe space. it's more nuanced than that I think.

it's moreso about people who are only liking something because they're told to, running around the internet, posting gay, lame, shit about it. I have to dodge and weave while I'm on the internet to avoid it. obviously I could just avoid and ignore it, but that's not the point. I'm not trying to imply I'm special or whatever for not following the crowd. it's just kind of annoying to me. not gonna lie.

it's like if you and your friend were watching a cool show in a room, then a bunch of normies came in, and starting watching it. then the most influential person of that normie group said he loved it, so all the other kids starting "loving" it. it's uncomfortable as fuck. it's not that they're watching it that annoys me. watch whatever you want. it's just how fake how many of these kids are that bums me out.

anyways. like I said, I'm not gonna stop watching it, what normies do doesn't matter. all I'm doing is sharing my disdain. Call me a special snowflake idgaf. this is just what I think. faggots who can't read in between the lines and take every rug into for face value will assume I'm being a typical fedora wearing hipster fag. but whatever.

and nah dude, they weren't "right all this time", it's moreso I simply did not articulate myself correctly, which caused them to mindlessly assume.
