It had it's moments. But they didn't carry through enough to save from that cringy monologue and muh Harmon level family problems and emotional numbness. Roiland should have more say in the show.

I heard the female writers were pushing the divorced family problems angle hard but it should be letting up for the next 2 or so.

You have to have a very high IQ to understand Rick and Morty. The humour is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical physics most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer's head. There's also Rick's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation- his personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realise that they're not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Rick & Morty truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humour in Rick's existential catchphrase "Wubba Lubba Dub Dub," which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev's Russian epic Fathers and Sons. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Dan Harmon's genius wit unfolds itself on their television screens. What fools.. how I pity them.

No jokes, not even a scenario for humor

It was

hopeful next season will be better.

>>86009478
This season has been 1-2 so far. I didn't even hate the pickle rick parts that much, the problem is this whole divorce story line is ruining the pacing.

If they just focused on Rick avoiding therapy and then have conflict with the rats, then the Russians (?) this could have been a decent parody of 80's action movies.

literally felt like a shitty filler episode with basically no other premise than "im a pickle".

No good jokes, nothing good plot-wise, and not even any development of character in any way and they were in a fucking therapy session. Could have actually had something going on in the B plot rather than just re-hashing what we already know of our characters.

I wasn't even expecting much, but i at least had hope that they'd prove me wrong. What a disappointment overall.

The fact that the threads slowed to a crawl after the initial pickle rick joke shows just how bad the episode was. /tv/ couldnt even meme it.

there is a progressive downward trend in this season.

the last episode i got a chuckle out of the "looooser" thing and the Morty robot becoming self aware. but it was otherwise unfunny and just excessively violent

this episode was just trying to survive on the "pickle rick" meme to appeal to the reddit crowd but was otherwise just pointlessly violent.

I feel they are substituting comedy for violence and the "jokes" are just stale cheesy one liners.

kind of a shame the first 2 seasons were fucking gold and episode one was a strong start.
>>
Anyone else think the show is significantly worse without Jerry? All of the humor surrounding the failed marriage came from Jerry's pitifulness as a character, which I thought was the comedic backbone for a lot of the darker parts of the show. Thought the episode really suffered without him. Hopefully he gets an entire episode at some point in the series and he doesn't get killed off.

This. Rick and Morty should be about Justin Roiland having infinite dimensions to play with so he could justify whatever storyline he wanted. Dan Harmon is instead using the show as a vehicle to let everyone know he's suffering from post divorce depression.

This is an article talking about how there may have been a discussion on the creative differences between Justin and Dan. Of course, it could just be trash, but I'll use it to indicate there might be creative discord.

I do remember watching a recent interview with Dan that this was his favorite episode of the series (If someone has the source I would love to see it).

I believe what is happening that Dan wants to take the show in a more serious direction, while Justin wants the show to be more cartoony.

Unless the two get through their creative differences, then yes, I believe the tonal shift in this new season will rub people the wrong way.

>>86009835
I feel like the psych session was actually an fairly interesting addition to the plotline of S3E2. Modern society takes the spice out of day to day life- now what is valued is willingness to do 40 to 60 hours a week of boring work, depending on how you define work. My wife says she fell in love with me when I told her I wouldn't just take a bullet for her, I'd take 40 years of crunch time and have dinner with her parents every weekend if I had to. I'm wondering whether Jerry is going to

A) show how effective he can be in modern society in contrast to Rick's dysfunction

B) embrace some of Rick's nihilism now that he's alone in what sounds like a rough part of town and become a more attractive man for it

C) do some combination of the two

Or maybe Morty will be the one who grows into the balanced mix of the two father figures and Jerry will stay a pussy. I'll agree it was less front-loaded with interesting material than most other episodes, but it has got me thinking like the others nonetheless.

Jesus this turned into a wall. I probably look like this >>86009954 clown now.

Something odd that bothered me, other than the obvious faults of having no jokes, being half "lol so randum" and half bland self-insert emotional talk was that Morty and Summer just had the same blank stare throughout 90% of the episode. I don't understand, were the animators just lazy or did the glue-huffing/pants pissing traumatize them for life?

The show jumped the shark when it tried to become anything more than just wacky adventures, but then again I had much different expectations for how the show would pan out. When I first watched ep 1 (and Doc and Mharti) I guess I expected it to be somewhat like ATHF in that it never really took itself too seriously and had ludicrous plotlines, but I guess everything nowadays has to have shoehorned family drama and muh 'complex' characters for it to be profitable. For all the hype people place into the show for being nihilistic/absurdist, it really feels like the show is trying to answer a lot of questions about life that I personally don't give a shit about, because frankly it's all been done much better before.

If you want to enjoy the show assume it's because the episode was about them not being able to express themselves and their problems because the two adults in their lives are self absorbed, emotionally stunted people.

No, and they don't care.
The new retard dykes employed to write these episodes don't give a shit and do not understand what it is to be funny.
Their writing versions of the stories they used to play with their barbies.

Remember the cool action you had with your toys, endless adventures - well now remember your sister's games with her barbies.
Repetitions of happy families, emotional drama, new clothes and costumes.
There you have it.

As usual she was gaslighting Summer and Morty into silence, while trying to divert the therapist attention from his daddy problems.
At the end, as usual, she chooses to be egoist, so much that she refuses to help his incontinent son and her budding junkie daughter. At the end she nullifies the progress she made through therapy by saying that it was all about Morty and Summer (implying the ridicolousness of their problems), and then egoistically she drop them off to eat out with Rick.

It was 100% Beth. The problem is that since Jerry is portrayed as a moron, the dumber /tv/ anons will automatically think that this means that Beth is a functioning, moral human being. She's not, she's a piece of shit as much as Jerry, the only difference is that she is a bit more aggressive (but in multiple episodes we can see that she has no quality to back that aggressivity up: basically she is full of shit).

Yeah I agree, they should really drop the whole scifi thing too - it is old and overdone by now.
Rick should start settling in to become the grandfather and rather he always should have been.
An episode, or better yet a 2-3 episode arc on him working on stopping his alcoholism, by hard work, determination and attending regular group meetings - rather than with a wacky invention.
After this, maybe phase out the character of Rick, he could develop Alzheimer's and die with his family by his bedside - to show how short life is.
Then it can just be about the family and the problems they face in an ordinary life.
Maybe keep Me P**py B*tthole though, he is hilarious! lol

I feel like the show really missed a good chance with Jerry and I think that everyone jumping on the hate train is just bandwagoning faggots.

S3 E1 has Jerry working for biggest government and steadily being promoted. For the first time in a long while for Jerry, things are going truly great. He'd been on the backfoot since we saw him, reviled by almost everyone who met him as a walking punching bag.

I'd like to remind everyone, however, that we DO see Jerry capable of having a mental break and growing a spine. This is evidenced in the Cronenberg episode and the alien couple therapy episode where Jerry fights to save himself/his wife and family. Underneath the timidity is a man wholly capable of doing violence and taking charge.

With the collapse of the Alien government, there is an immense power vaccuum that Rick can't possibly hope to fill on his own. As we see in the post-credit scene of S3E1, Tammy is back with a newly revived Pheonix Person, still in the garb of Federal agents with Alien Government personnel around them. This speaks of a resurgent Federal Government, if severely weakened by the fracturing of the economy brought on by the terrorist Rick Sanches.
I fully expected Jerry to disappear and return as a member of the newly formed Federal Government, hell-bent on punishing the man who ruined him and fractured his family for all time. The man who destroyed his world JUST as everything was coming up aces. His wife, his family, choose the man who has done nothing but hurt them, over him, the loving, if ineffective, father. Surely that's enough to make a man snap? A man we know to do violence when pushed too far.

Instead, we have Jerry in an even more pathetic state then we did before. The show itself even going so far as to have the word "Loser" play in the background in any scene where he is alone. The world is shitting on him more and more and he is just taking it, rather then snapping and fighting back as he has done before.

>>86022200
Jerry is not a faulty person, his problem is that he married the wrong person (many episodes, including the first 2 of the 3rd season, are about it).
He is not inherently weak, in fact by himself he is capable of obtaining the highest success (i.e. Croenberg Jerry and movie star Jerry), yet in this dimension he got neutered by Beth.

Of course, although this is a very basic dynamic, it appears to be too sophisticated for /tv/tards, who will just go "JERRY WEAK BETH KEKS".
I'm sure they'll turn him into a demigod of some sort, now that he is not burdened by his family anymore.

It certainly doesn't appear that that's the way they are taking Jerry. No show i've ever watched that was good actually puts a character on screen and then TELLS you what they are. Not to mention that the Mad Max episode had Jerry acting EXTREMELY stand-offish to Summer when she visited him. It was so odd, so out-of-place for Jerry who has been shown as a loving father, if inept. The character has suddenly changed and I can't help but feel that the writers have jumped on their own damn bandwagon when it comes to Jerry.

>"Heh heh, yeah, he is a loser! Isn't he guys?"

It's really disappointing that they seem to have just dropped the whole Federal Government, Terrorist watch-list thing. Not only that, SURELY there is some remnant of the Council of Ricks that wants blood? No mention of it, no allusions to future revenge. I swear if they drop the plot-line that weakly i'll probably drop the show.

Rick+Terrorist buddies V Government was great.

Yes it is. They have been extremely implicit in the first 2 episodes of his season, and there are 2 entire episodes specifically based on how wring this marriage is. In one it is shown that they are co-dependant, and that they are both making each other works, and in another one they can see that had they never met each other they would have succeded as life. Also in the second episode of this season the marriage is recreated by Summer and that Deathstalker guy, who was meant to be Jerry. You can actually see how Jerry got neutered by Beth im that episode.
It's not a theory I'm making up, they have been explicit about it for 3 whole seasons. Again, Jerry is not inherently weak or mediocre, he just got ruined by this marriage (same for Beth, who never managed to fullfill his only dream, to become a doctor, due to her marriage).

because if you do, your opinion isn't going to be ignored, it's just clear that you do not have one.

The Pickle Rick episode is the worst Rick and Morty episode because the women hired to write the show aren't capable of understanding what the show was originally supposed to be and want it to be Futurama, only with insincere, gratuitous in a tacked-on way scenes of violence that prove they "get" the male segment of the audience. This entire episode was essentially equivalent to the Family Guy chicken fight segments, and yes, the show has jumped the shark and will never be good on any level again.

I just watched the first two episodes and Rick and Morty is better than /tv/ led me to believe

>>86022646
In that same episode where Beth and Jerry find out that they would have lived better lives without one another, we find Jerry, now an addict, arriving at Beth's door professing his love for her and his undying unhappiness at never asking her to be with him. Beth reciprocates this. The ending of the very episode you cite as a reason why they shouldn't and don't work with each other also shows that even if they may have been more succesful without the other, they were happy.

Two semi-bad, broken people coming together out of love and need for one another. not only that not only that but the Alien Therapy episode also shows they are tied to one another even if they have deep-seated negative emotions regarding the other. Monster Beth states that she desires an army of Jerries. It also shows monster Beth and Jerry working together to cause havoc.

It wasn't that great, but I'm sure other episodes in the season will be better.
>>
I think this season just has a lack of things going on, the b-plots in every story since s3e1 have been pretty boring.

S3e1 got away without b-plots because the episode was so hyped and so much went down, episode 2 had Beth with the robots, which was a gag that was never fleshed out. This episode had characters literally in a room talking.

Rick and Morty has never been too scared to say things that are on-the-nose, but they always felt related to the plot as an inevitability of their adventures. When Rick and Morty replace themselves and have to take their place, Rick says out-and-out, don't think about it. A pretty on-the-nose statement but it at least was in response to a situation.

In episodes 2 and 3 now we have characters just stating their emotions rather than having them show through action, that combined with sub-par b-plots really puts the show in a bad light.

I don't think Rick and Morty is ruined though, there were some decent jokes in both episodes and they just need to tweak a few things to get it back on track.
>>
I didn't understand why everyone was so upset about the Pickle Rick concept at first, because I thought it was just a promo, when they were doing that whole blitz of ads in different styles. I thought the joke was how stupid of an idea for an episode Pickle Rick was, and thought the ad was actually clever and funny. Then I found out it was going to be a real episode, and I got what everyone was so upset about.
>>
>>86011266
Your thinking patterns sound like those of a woman.
>>
>>86022976
And tell me, what was the conclusion of that episode? Them agreeing on the fact that they should divorce as soon as Morty get into college.
The love might be real, but the relationship is clearly disfunctional, and it directly leads Jerry and Beth to mediocrity and weakness: wether their feelimgs are genuine is irrelevant, for this is the conclusion.

>Monster Beth states that she desires an army of Jerries. It also shows monster Beth and Jerry working together to cause havoc.
Exploitation and cult-like adoration are not pros in a marriage. That event was seen as catastrophic by the actual therapists, for both practical and medical reasons.

Neither Beth or Jerry are actual therapists. And I literally, literally just watched the last few minutes of the episode in question. Goddess Beth kills the monster and releases regular Beth. She then tells Jerry she loves him. A bit later, when Rick picks them both up Jerry asks if she wants to keep their relationship going while the two of them hold each other. Beth smiles at Jerry and says "At least until Morty is out of highschool" and then they kiss, passionately.

Thats not a difinitive "This relationship ends the second Morty is an adult" its a wary step in to the future, together. She decides to stay the course with him, at least until Morty is out of Highschool.

My main gripe with R&M is that the direction is so lacking. When Rick goes about murdering dozens of rats and then armed guards there's no weight or tension behind it. It's so choreographed it comes off more like an intricate stage dance than a life or death struggle.

Which was funny and classic R&M subtle misdirection, but autists are triggered just because the psychologist was able to hold her own with Rick in snide deconstructing monologuing.

How does it organically mesh with the other episodes anon? The helter-skelter story telling? The bizarre pacing? The pointless violence? The over-arching plot being unfulfilling, with nothing gained lost OR learned.

We already know Beth has daddy issues, we already know Morty and Summer aren';t taking the divorce well, that was established last episode. We already know Beth is uncertain about the divorce, that was established last episode.

This episode served no purpose other then to test-fire a new writer who burned up fast.

How was the story telling helter-skelter? It seemed to follow the same pattern as past episodes? How was the pacing out of the ordinary at all? Pointless violence? Really? Are we forgetting the Purge episode?

I'm seriously baffled with you guys right now. Please don't tell me this is honestly just hate for the woman writer, that's the only conclusion I can come up with right now. Really fucking lame if that's the case.

woman or not the writing is fucking terrible. it lacks the balance of absurdity and coherence, we'll never see an episode as good as rixty minutes again.

and no i didn't like beth and jerry's bullshit in prior seasons either. i blame harmon for this more than anything, we could all see the direction change at the end of season 2.

That's not fair, Rixty Minutes is arguable the best episode with many others falling very short of how good it is. This seems to be more frustration over lack of more of the 'good stuff' as opposed to actual dissatisfaction with the new episodes. And that comment is meant to attack or hurt you in any way, anon.

PICKLE RICKERS IN THE HOUSE TONIGHT

PICKLE RICKERS MAKE YOU LOOOOSE YOUR MIND

It stopped being simply about wacky adventures at episode 6, but you guys sure still loved it past that point.
>>
>>86026152
Im not complaining about the Beth and Jerry trying to make it work subplots. There weren't that many and they were okay overall.

The story telling is helter skelter in that it jumps from a super serious, mostly calm conversation with a therapist, Beth, Morty and Summer and their families issues to wacky PICKLE RIIIIICK murdering RATS in the SEWWW ERRRRS YEAH.

>Pointless Violence? Really?
An episode dedicated to pointless violence and the story there within is not pointless in itself.

Murderfucking a few dozen rats in a sewer to then go on and murderfuck a few russian guys in an embassy for no reason other then I TURNED MYSELF IN TO A PICKLE YEAAAH is just dumb. It served no purpose to the story. Maybe it could have paid off with Rick realizing he isn't taking the family splintering apart well and killing is how he takes the edge off but no, thats not where we go at all. Instead we end with Rick being talked at for a few minutes, nothing of value being gained and Beth and Rick going off to start drinking.
>Please don't tell me this is honestly just hate for the woman writer.
Shit writing is shit writing. Just so happens the writer was a woman.
I fucking despise the new covenant movie and that was made by a man if that assuages your feefees a little.

There have been two episodes regarding the divorce, there has been more episodes with 'Beth and Jerry try to make it work' subplots is the point I'm trying to make.
>The story telling is helter skelter in that it jumps from a super serious, mostly calm conversation with a therapist, Beth, Morty and Summer and their families issues to wacky PICKLE RIIIIICK murdering RATS in the SEWWW ERRRRS YEAH.
This is simply cherry-picking, and a non-issue. If anything it makes sense to have contrasting subplots. Are you expecting two action-packed subplots? Rick and Morty has always been know for it's dialogue, I don't see the issue with the therapy subplot. It payed off at the end too.
>An episode dedicated to pointless violence and the story there within is not pointless in itself.
It's not dedicated to violence? You even addressed the contrast of sublplots yourself. Calm and action, like you said. But I will give you the point of Ricks subplot not amounting to anything, but this is an episode within a series which has a random space tv episode every season. So...
>Murderfucking a few dozen rats in a sewer to then go on and murderfuck a few russian guys in an embassy for no reason other then I TURNED MYSELF IN TO A PICKLE YEAAAH is just dumb.
It's just another case of Rick walking into a zany situation, this is nothing new to the series. See the purge episode and many other.

The Purge episode is what I was talking about. The Beth subplot ALSO amounted to nothing. This was an eisode of nothing.
So...

Theres nothing zany about rats in a sewer.
>>
>>86027173
>Theres nothing zany about rats in a sewer.
You're minimizing. The whole series of events that transpired from the point of him being a pickle is in fact "zany", sir.

And I'll also like to add that the divorce plot is obviously something they're setting up as an over-arching theme for the season, but I can't wait to see everyone bitch and moan as if it's not to be expected.

You guys are reaching for gripes, seriously. It wasn't an amazing episode, but it's not out of sequence with the prior ones. Hell, last week everyone was bitching because Summer had a bigger role in the episode. Calling it "Rick & Summer", this is almost surreal watching board opinions shift to hate for a past beloved show because it's reached meme status for normies in real-time. It's like seeing a rare animal for me right now. You guys are lame.

Why the FUCKING HELL would you go from fighting and overthrowing a galactic government to two fucksticks getting a divorce? People aren't complaining and bitching because its not expected. They are complaining because THEY ARE expecting it.I personally fucking hate the direction the show is going in. Bring back Rick and Morty going on adventures and HAVING A GOOD TIME DOING IT. Not sad stories about a family splitting to pieces, children dealing with abandonment issues, both of them seem to blame Jerry when Beth is just as much to blame for the split. Fucking family therapy has no place in Rick and Morty.
>>
>>86027415
Im not reaching for anything here. I am just angry that this show has nose-dived after the first episode. I haven't even mentioned episode 2 even though it was basic as shit.

I disagree. I would say episodes 2 and 3 are in the lower echelon of R&M episodes, but saying the show is nosediving is extreme and unwarranted. Every season has had highs and lows, we're not even half-way through this one. Stop being such drama queens and getting so triggered easily.

Because your issues are nothing new to the series. There have always been subplots devoted the the stability of their family in tandem with wacky space adventures. The direction hasn't changed at all. The episodes simply vary in quality and you guys are behaving like babies because every one can't be Close Rick-counters of the Rick Kind. I would say the season 1 finale is easily the worst in the series and further from the heart and soul of the show than any other.

"Hold her own"? It was a waste of time. If a viewer doesn't already naturally know the things that she's saying, I don't know why they intended to watch the program. Why would you want to hear a monologue reiterating something that you already know and that the characters already know?
>>
>>86028737
it's not different opinions. It's exclusively opinions that are from underage retarded manchildren. rick and morty is on the same tier as big bang theory. it is not witty, it is not funny, it is not deep or meaningful in any way. it's even worse than fucking family guy because at least the original couple seasons of that show can make people laugh

rick and morty is for the lowest of the low. it's vile shit. fuck you

They've always been sub-plots.
SUB plots.
This divorce crap is setting up to be the over-arching theme of the arc/season and its shit. Its just shit. Plain and simple. Whats worse is that now the backlash is building at the poor writing and even poorer choice in direction, it'll be even worse if RnM 180's and drops the divorce sub-plot or quickly resolves it.

Yall fuckers wrote yourself in to a corner and you can't magic your way out of it or it'll be a slap in the face to the audience.
>>
>>86022425
>the entire sequence with morty finding rick in his pickle state
something like 10 seconds of that entire conversation was some variation of 'pickle' 'rick' and a laugh or a burp. that and the therapy session was just boring as all hell (I DONT EAT POOP HAHA). The violence was great, as always, and the lines between rick and jaguar were somewhat funny
>ive never died
>that'll be your downfall, not open to new experiences!

literally couldn't believe this was rick and morty, then i saw who wrote it. it will always be true that when you hire for diversity, you literally dilute the pool of talent because the best of the best are not hired thanks to a person's clam or melanin.

>>
>>86028430
My issues are not new to the series stop saying that. The family sub-plot has always been about the family trying to stay together. They love one another and it is shown in scenes throughout the seasons even if their family is a tad dysfunctional.

This new overarching story is about the family fracturing and learning how to cope with that. However it's being done in a honestly pretty poor way. Laying all the blame on Jerry, outright having a ghost voice calling him a Loser twice in an episode. Having him act like a dick to Summer when she goes to visit him.

Jerry was the slimy goo that held them together. He was easy to pick on and was the family punching bag because he could take it. Now he is gone because Rick forced him out and Beth took Ricks side. Rick was laughing about it in Episode 1. Now he's gone and rather then focus on JERRY and HIS arc as he struggles to re-unite with his family as a man, we focus on the family all blaming Jerry.
Fuck off.

Saying every season has highs and lows if fair. However, two trash episodes in a row, right at the beginning of the season, really only speaks poorly of what is to come. After all, you lead with your best.

Having a Chinese woman wasn't enough.
They should have a disabled lesbian african muslim woman in full ghost-garb.

Chinese women comedians are almost too funny, I laughed for about 10-20 minutes when I read she'd knock our dicks off, although I did find it offensive because it implies all viewers are male, when 51% are females from minority races. But then again she is chinese so she can't be racist also she said she was general mao like the chinese president is now.

Yeah, and if they kept doing it and went nowhere with it, you'd be bitching about that. It led to a critical point and this season is the aftermath. If you don't like the new overarching theme, fine, your prerogative, but let's not be so dramatic saying the entire series is nosediving and such. You haven't even given it a chance to unfold.

>Jerry as the slimy goo that held them together. He was easy to pick on and was the family punching bag because he could take it. Now he is gone because Rick forced him out and Beth took Ricks side. Rick was laughing about it in Episode 1.
"Waaaaaaaah, I miss Jerry, this show is shit, WAAAAAAAAH!"

It didn't dominate anything you inanimate dog turd. Rick and Morty dominated. It was a show about them and their adventures and the craziness of the universe they exist in. Any episode that had elements of family drama was set in an outlandish, colourful and bizarre backdrop. The last two episodes have been a desert and an office with a writers self-insert talking down to the characters.
