What went wrong
What went wrong?
jokes vs ad-lib
>>86129319
SJW invaded the writing staff and dan harmon is spewing his shitty life story into it
pickle rick is too deep for you to understand
>>86129349
That was quick
>>86129319
False equivalency. there were silly butt jokes and fart jokes at season 1 of Rick&Morty too
This was also in the pickel rick episode:
>Rick, the only connection between your unquestionable intelligence and the sickness destroying your family is that everyone in your family, you included, use intelligence to justify sickness. You seem to alternate between viewing your own mind as an unstoppable force and as an inescapable curse. And I think it’s because the only truly unapproachable concept for you is that it’s your mind within your control. You chose to come here, you chose to talk to belittle my vocation, just as you chose to become a pickle. You are the master of your universe, and yet you are dripping with rat blood and feces. You enormous mind literally vegetating by your own hands. I have no doubt that you would be bored senseless by therapy, the same way I’m bored when I brush my teeth and wipe my ass. Because the thing about repairing, maintaining, and cleaning is it’s not an adventure. There is no way to do it so wrong you might die. It’s just work. And the bottom line is, some people are okay going to work, and some people… well, some people would rather die. Each of us gets to choose.
>>86129401
fuck off /pol/ activist, the scripts were picked because the staff liked them
>>86129558
I like how people thought this shitty monologue affected the family even slightly since they decided to just go get stupidly drunk immediately after
>>86129319
That same episode in season 1 was about Rick smuggling giant seeds off a planet by shoving them up Morty's asshole. There are shit jokes and decent jokes throughout.
I liked the stuff with Danny Trejo in the newest episode.
>>86129558
yeah i bet the staff liked them, all the great writers who made the show popular have left and been replaced by SJW cunts who suck dan harmons shrivelled dick
>>86129610
Though I don't think the line was funny or really fit in the episode at all, you're a retard if you think it didn't affect the characters.
They left the therapy place all smiling and as a less dysfunctional family. Morty even asks if they'll be going back.
>>86129319
I like the show but season 3 is fucking shit
>>86129651
>less dysfunctional family
>the kids didn't get any help whatsoever despite the therapy being for them
>they get ignored the whole episode
>the adults decide to drop the kids off at home and go get wasted instead of maintaining their relationships like suggested
Getting wasted is not maintaining, it's an adventure where you go to get fucked up and see where your inhibition free mind takes you
>>86129319
Anyone else think Rick's miniature nigger-rigged biological exoskeletons made from roaches and rats were kinda neat?
Why does Rick turn himself into a 'Pickle Morty'?
I just can't figure this out.
He says
>I turned myself into a 'Pickle Morty'
Is he a pickled Morty? Why would he turn himself into a Pickle Morty. I don't get it.
I don't get why they'd have to make an overarching plot. the how would've been a lot better if the episodes were standalone

PICKLE RIIIIICK
>>86129319
I like R&M but I think last episode was pretty ehh.
The premise of the pickle is ok, because of the preposterous nature of the show, but the moment Rick moved from the sewers to the building with Russians it became (ironically) too much lolrandom and unconnected.
I actually enjoyed the therapy scenes more.
>>86129319
The Pickle Rick episode pissed me off.
It tried to relieve the need for actual jokes by just filling the episode with gore / action scenes.

I don't get why people are just now mad that R&M is random humor
It's been like that since the start, in fact the more straight forward episodes have been the most boring imo because it could be any cartoon
>>86129558
It says that women can also be smart.
Honestly, Picke Rick episode wasn't that bad, if you ingore the therapy stuff
>>86129926
How does it feel watching your insane SJW retardation being attacked from all sides?
I'm a liberal. You made an enemy out of liberals. You are so far fucking out in retard land that you are enemies with liberals, moderates and conservatives simultaneously.
REEEEEEE WHERE IS THE DRAMA I RECOMMENDED THIS SHOW FOR ITS HEAVY TONES AT TIMES AND MY FRIENDS ARE ASKING WHY ITS ABOUT A MAN BEING SILLY AS A PICKLE FUCK OFF!!!

He's not just a pickle, he's a Pickle Morty.

>>86129319
Author self-inserts and lolsorandum violence aside, the only thing that really bothered me is that they never made a joke about him being caught in a pickle.
>>86129319
pickle rick is easily a top 5 rick and morty episode.
y'all are just a bunch of miserable fucks who hate on everything.
>>86129319
I think the scripts this season are really relying in existential and nihilistic philosophy and themes that is going over the heads of a lot of the kids who like the ludicrous spectacle of the show. The folks I watched with were of two mi D's about this episode - those who dig thinky humor loved it, those who I wouldn't peg as running out to buy a literary novel didn't like anything other than the pickle rat action. Sure, you'll say that sounds elitist if you are the second type. That figures. I thought it was great. A ton of effort is going into these scripts this season. It shows. They have to be careful to maintain a balance, though, as relying on subtext and and Psych and philosophy humor might be alienating the Average Joe Sixpack crowd.
Xavier RA is the better show

I lolled when Beth accused Dr. Wong of having a racist name.
>>86129994
You're a fucking faggot for doing that, the maudlin faux-poignant 'Morty staring into the middle distance whilst soft piano + indie vocals style music plays in the background' bits are the absolute worst thing about this show
I unironically fucking hate you you pretentious gobshite moron

Nothing about what he said was SJW. Don't act like people weren't prepping themselves up for six months on this board to hate this episode just because a woman wrote it. A female psychologist doing her job is not SJW anything.
>>86129319
Female writers
>>86130091
haha yeah i agree. I recently finished my PHD at harvard for theoretical physics and i love educating my lesser minded friends on this show. They just don't understand how deep this show really is, i smirk in joy when i tell them about the subtle undertones of existential and nihilistic philosophy that they are missing out on because of how stupid they are, haha.
Why is everyone so autistic about this show? Not that I don't enjoy the shitposting.
>>86130246
Kill your self. You have to be 18 years old to post here.
>>86130296

Because the shitposting is almost indistinguishable from the unironic posting, it's really fun to pile on.

This quote would literally kill me if it wasn't a ruse cruise but the "nothing personnel" gives it away sadly
>Season 1
Preddy Gud. With some more refined writing, it could have acsended to God status
>Season 2
Writing suddenly dips, but that's normal. Still a few good episodes, but tainted by some painfully unfunny ones. Hopefully it will turn around.
>Season 3
lul so randumb humor
As soon as Dan Harmon put his name on it, it was destined to suck ass.
>>86129885
This.
The episode had no real content. It was just filler scenes.
I got a bad feeling when Rick said "it's getting darker" in the episode before. Like they can't come up with jokes and content so they just try to be edgy.

>>86129739
I liked it too. Wish there was no therapy bullshit and more exoskeleton bits. We want to watch Rick do cool sci fi stuff, not endure an sjw self-insert with a shit monologue.
I've noticed they've stripped out a lot of the characters' unique mannerisms and speech patterns.
>>86131114
whats pissing me off is the lack of sci fi and just rick and morty being together
>>86129558
This was actually a somewhat profound statement regarding therapy and high intelligence.
Shame it'll never be acknowledged because of a writers political beliefs and odd self insert.
>>86129983
All you did was prove his last comment you filthy little /pol/ack...

>>86129558
rick and morty is a fucking cartoon, the characters arent real and neither are their problems. rick is an arrogant asshole because he was written to be that way, not because of 'deep rooted psychological issues hurr durr im so smart i can quote psych books'.
>no Jerry Smith
Terrible episode because Jerry is the glue that holds the show together. Without him the show falls apart.
>>86130515
You don't need a reason to watch a cartoon. It's got cool setting and sci fi. It's visually appealing and has a comedic pace, while being playfully irreverent. People can easily watch it without letting its jokes and wounded characters define them. Don't be obtuse.
>>86130809
Filler? What do you think the show is about? A mini-adventure of cartoon fighting, and characters being stupid in front of a psychologist are definitely content. What scene were you waiting for that you didn't get?
>>86129558
>using the self-interest character as your example of good Season 3 writing
lmao
>>86129319
The thing is that it´s not a terrible episode. It has good moments and a bunch of jokes that landed well. The only thing that annoys me (and the reddiest moment) is that Pickle Rick didn´t spill the guts and bath in the blood of that fatty cat. Instead, the episode choose the easy way: insects and rats. Overall, not the worse episode of Rick and MOrty, but pretty forgettable.
>>86131114
How is the character sjw or a self-insert? Explaining in clear terms exactly how the main cast approaches life, and then showing them taking that knowledge and move forward not caring, is both comedic and par for the course for the show's heartstring pulling.
Is Xavier Renegade Angel worth checking out?
>>86133623
Which is why the characters took the professional attempt at character analysis and comically tossed it out in favor of drinking and acting like a cartoon. That's the joke. Soranden's careful analysis means nothing to them and doesn't properly apply in a cartoon.
>>86135695
Good point.
>>86135619
Yes
What is a PICKLE MORTY
pls
>>86130515
>literally 90% of it is either toilet humor or "lol god isn't real"
"god isn't real" was only said once in the entire first season.
>>86135619
no, dont get memed into givin it a shot, its rather bad. Try Space ghost instead
>>86129319
women
also the writers became so concerned with retaining quality and not looking like hacks they made the jokes shitty on purpose instead of by accident, huge fucking cucks
That was technically the pilot :^)
>>86131348
its clearly meant to be that the therapist is correct and rick and his daughter are ignoring it because they cant deal with their problems.
