Okay I think I finally figured out my problem with Rick and Morty.
I think my big problem is just about every single joke seems to be made to be marketable. To be able to be shared and parroted on Reddit, Facebook, etc. The humor's also really unnatural but whatever, my main problem is that.
Anyone else not think Rick and Morty is the second coming of Jesus?

You know full well everyone on this board hates it
Rick and Morty is good

You think this wasn't intentional? The show is built for our generation and our times. Focus testing and research has pointed the show towards what will get the most hits and generate the most buzz on the net. Art in tv is dead, cold and unfeeling, although substanceless marketing reigns supreme.

I just pulled a little turd out of ass, my ass feels free and kinda clean
Your post reminds me of that gif of Madmen. "I feel really sorry for you." "I don't think about you at all.".
>>39137694
I kinda like it but never really laugh or get taken aback by these supposedly really insightful and philosophical moment they keep pushing, especially the past couple episodes. The whole thing is definitely banking on meme culture and ironic self-hating.
People are pretty much praising this show for going "did you know there's no god and nothing really matters but you should still be nice to the people you like?"

I think you're taking it way too seriously, it's just a funny cartoon. Of course they're interested in their product being marketable but that doesn't make objectively bad. If you enjoy it watch it, if you don't enjoy it don't watch it. You're not better or worse than anyone for liking or not liking some cartoon.

Not the second coming of Jesus, but a nice stir in mass-appeal adult centric animation.
I enjoy watching it in the dark by myself, but rarely talk about it to other people.
I enjoyed Justin Roilands early work especially how vulgar and pedo everything is.
It had a sense of real edge to it.
Then Dan Harmon took control and started stroking his own cock and watered it down.
PPPPPPIIIIIIICCCKKKLLLEEE RRRRIIICCCKKKK!!!!!!!!1!!11!!1!!

I always find it strange how triggered anons get about this show. Especially having copy pasta ready for it.
>>39139458
it's the fandom that completely kills it for me
>>39139511
Why should you care about the fandom?
>>39139590
i feel embarrassed watching the show because of what other people will think of me if i dare to mention i watch it. lol randumb humor like pickel rick gives the whole series a bad name
>>39139734
Pickle Rick was specifically meant to look lol randumb in advertising to make people like you angry.
>>39139762
>lol we'll make the show terrible on purpose! xDDD
>>39139762
it doesn't make me angry though it just makes me embarrassed to mention it to other people because they will think of pickel rick, and think im some retard who laughs at that stuff
>>39139803
No literally you're being baited by a fake 'jump the shark' moment. You're literally just illustrating you're a retard.

>someone was butthurt enough to make an infographic about hating rick and north

Pickle Rick is not random.
It was wordplay a metaphor. He wasn't simply "in a pickle". He is the pickle. His entire family are constantly "in a pickle" because of his actions.
Don't get me wrong. The show definitely has faults and has a pretty crappy fanbase to boot, but the metaphor really isn't subtle.
