Why the fuck is this show so popular?

>>85032634
Reddit, fedoras and le ebin memes.

>>85032634
Because it seems smart and is pretty relatable.

>>85032634
It makes you think and then it makes you laugh. At least it does for people with brains and not Drumpftards like you.

It's a great show, /tv/'s dislikes it purely because of territorial jealousy of the producer soliciting opinions of the pilot and ongoing show from reddit.

The users I quoted are most probably failures of life, and yet they salve their egos with unwarranted delusions they have great intellect and rarified taste, and that they are too good for populist websites.

Stop pretending fedoraism really upset you

sup reddit

High concept sci-fi with lowbrow humor is fun.

It's like a worse Futurama that takes itself too seriously.

This is so true

It's irreverent, funny, and edgy.

Kind of like me.

I post Rick every time a "characters that are literally you" thread pops up. He's like me because he burps and drinks and does SCIENCE lol wubalubadubdub

>>85032634
It's a dumb funny show. Characters are entertaining and that's all that matters. Only thing I don't get is that some people believe that they are superior intelligent beings just for having watch it.

>>85032634
Rick begged God to save him in S02E01, he's not meant to be admired and the writers hammer the audience over the head with the idea that he's a psycho and wrong about everything every single episode. Just because retarded fans somehow manage to miss the message doesn't mean the writing is bad.

To answer your question, it's popular because it's somewhat fun and refreshing, and also because edgy young adults enjoy the swearing and weird visuals.

Weak bait

You only started hating it once you realized t was popular

I just fucking love Rick and Morty, in the way that I fucking love science. It's so random and cool - it's like the show was designed for us Redditors, see? My mom says I have an unhealthy obsession with the show, but she just doesn't understand how funny it. I wish I could live in the Rick and Morty world and be their friends. Everything would be really and cool and funny if I did. Rick and Morty are so funny and I'm so awesome that it would make perfect sense, but it'd be even better if Bernie Sanders appeared. It'd be so awesome I'd turn up the TV in the common room of my dorm up all the way so everyone could hear the greatness of Bernie Sanders, Ron Paul, bacon, weed, atheism, The Avengers, Guardians of the Galaxy, Sweden, Bill Nye, 90s cartoons, cats, and fucking loving science.

I run the Rick and Morty Club at my school - we come together, browse Reddit, make some Deadpool memes and watch Rick and Morty. We don't talk to each other but there's a cute girl there I'm gonna try and ask out. I'm a nice guy and I dress well (fedora + trench coat + brown-stained underwear + well-trimmed beard lightly seasoned with dust and corn syrup) so I just know I've got a good chance with her. I've already messaged her on Facebook, I just haven't got a response yet.

Anyway, back to the topic at hand: Rick and Morty! My favorite character is Rick because his style of humor perfectly reflects that of Reddit. I bet if I asked him "When does the narwhal bacon?", he'd know EXACTLY what I was talking about. Also, did you notice he looks like Bernie Sanders if you squint a bit and use your imagination? This can't be a coincidence; MLG Illuminati confirmed. Yeah, that's right, I look at montage parodies too. What good Redditor doesn't? Lenny face, Illuminati, and Doge are so funny. If I met Rick and Morty I'd be sure to show them all those funny and awesome memes and more!

Yours baconly, Atheist92

SHIT ON THE FLOOR

GET SCHWIFTY

LMAO XD SO FUNNY

NIHILISM *BUUUURP* MORTY
IT'S GREAT!
FIND A BLACK MAN AND *BUURP* LET HIM FUCK YOUR GIRL MORTY

>>85032634
Do you not see the faces of the other characters? They think Rick is full of shit, which is the point. He has complete confidence in telling someone something he obviously can't know. The joke is that he's an asshole.

>has literal Devil in one episode

>but G*d's not real

>>85032634
teenagers love ideological extremes
is nihilism in this case, moral absolutism in a lot of others

next question

How can things like Mr Pickles appeal to anyone

>>85033879
people started hating it after the novelty wore off

was a lot of people's first 'adult cartoon' or whatever - probably lost luster after second randumb improv episode

>>85032634
because of the pickle
oh and tiny rick too YEAHH TINY RICK!!

I thought season one was ok. Like a 6 or light 7 out of 10, depending on the episode. Season 2 was terrible though, and Im not going to watch 3. I actually retroactively dislike the first season.

The show also has a terrible normie fanbase.

>>85032634
Its impossible to discuss this show here because there are always a few retards who insist on turning the discussion into a digital turf war between reddit and 4chan.

>>85039479
Ironically these are people who only came to 4chan because reddit hurt their feelings in the comments section, that's why they always bring it up.

>>85032634
Oh g-geez Rick, I can't believe we survived that adventure! You've really blown t-this whole alternate universe thing out of, you know, proportion
>You're right Morty, you're right. I'm *buuurp* sorry Morty. Hey could you do me a favor?
Sure thing Rick!
>Can you reach into that garage drawer and hand me one of the Gods in there?
But there's nothing in here Rick, i-it's empty!
>BECAUSE GOD DOESN'T EXIST MORTY. TAKE OFF YOUR PANTS AND PANTIES. TAKE A SHIT ON THE BIBLE

Because it's funny

>>85039697
Wow, it's like you specifically read every line in which Rick refers to God without getting any of the context or even watching the show at all.

Sasuga, /tv/.

>>85040039
Or, I'm a genuine fan of the show and simply joining in on the shitposting.

How can you say God isn't real when atheists can't even define atheism?

Rick and Morty is The Big Bang Theory for people who like to make fun of The Big Bang Theory.

>>85032634

INTELLIGENT SHOW FOR AN INTELLIGENT PERSON SUCH AS MYSELF

>>85040423
I've always been around 98 or 99% on all the standardized tests so I don't know what it's like to be average. One thing I have noticed is that everyone thinks they're smarter than everyone else, no matter how dumb, and no one likes it when someone tells them they're not. Even a TV show that is over their head is like a personal affront to their lack of intellect. Don't take it personally, it's not about you. There's always Batman vs Superman.

You realised people overvalue their own intelligence and don't like to be called stupid? who would have thought
