How do I avoid writing something as bad as Rick & Morty? I've stopped watching it now, but I enjoyed season one and the purge episode in season two.
>>
You don't do a flashback at the end of the episode, you should just tell it outright in the beginning.
>>
try not to switch the focus of the show you write to what fans think the focus of the show should be
>>
>enjoyed the purge episode

But why?
>>
>>86550910

Don't hire female writers if you're trying to create a funny show. The season 3 is shit for a reason
>>
>>86550910
Stop being a fat sack of shit and stop spamming your show here.
>>
>Rick and Morty
>writing
isn't it all improv?
>>
>>86550910
>purge episode was trite
sorry to say the problems with you not the show
>>
>>86551315
Only the interdimensional cable episodes.Even then, Roiland is fucking horrible at ad lib.
>>
If you're writing with a team, don't fire half of them to make room for new diversty hires
It's not even the womens fault, it's all Harmon being a fucking idiot
>>
>>86551027
>But why?
It was very comfy.
>>
>>86551132
A lot of season 2 was shit too though.

The rick and morty fanbase, ladies and gents...
>>
1st for the Vindicators episode was alright and the Israel joke was great.
>>
>>86550910
>How do I avoid writing something as bad as Rick & Morty?
Make sure your main character supports Israel. Anti-Semitism is a tool of the unfunny.
>>
>>86555146
But I don't support Israel myself.

>wubba lub dub dub

what did he mean by this?
>>
>>86550910
>write something because you've been thinking about it for a while, you genuinely think it's funny, and you're pretty sure other people will like it too
Good
>Write something because fans want Season 3 and the network is willing to pay for it
Trash

>>86550910
Mr Pickels is cool too

I just want to write like Mike Tyson Mysteries.
>>
>>86550910
>Enjoyed the purge episode

Objectively one of the worst of series 2
>>
>>86556797
It was comfy.
>>
>>86554481
maybe you should go back there
>>
>>86558398
i have it in another tab...your point being?
>>
>>86552557
It's known as the worst episode in the series. Rick and Morty should never have that cringey dancing it had in season 2.
>>
>>86551132
Interdimensional Cable 2 wasn't written by cunts and it still managed to be worse than all of season 3 so far
>>
>>86558616
People think that's the worse and not Get Schwifty?
>>
>>86550910
Rick is overpowered
>>
>>86558719
If tiny rick didn't have the funny payoff of operation phoenix then literally half of season 2 would contend for worst episode of the show
>>
purge episode is one of the worst ones though
>multiple ultraviolent sequences of boring filler
>cat girl is a huge asshole but is treated like a protagonist for some reason
>rick sparing cat girl despite her betrayal is a stupid out of character moment, as is the weird reveal that morty is filled with murderous rage
>half-assed social commentary that goes nowhere
>shitty twist ending that can be seen a mile away
>>
>>86551025
100% what killed Rick and Morty, and so much other shit.
>>
Crazy how reddit and normies only remember literally the worst of R&M
>wubalubadubdub, get schwifty, movie """""reference""""""" eps, schezuan sauce etc...

Daily reminder

>>86550910
The purge episode is on par with most of season 3
>>
>>86559093
>>multiple ultraviolent sequences of boring filler
>>half-assed social commentary that goes nowhere
That has been the entire s3 as well.
>>
>>86550910
Really?

I laughed hard at some of the scenes in the third season so far.

I do think my favorite scene was this from the first episode though:

>>86551027
It feels good
>>
>>86550910
Analyze what you don't like about R&M, and then avoid using those elements.

Watch Season 1-5 of King of the Hill, 1-8 of The Simpsons to know what a good cartoon is like.
>>
>>86550910
PICKLE RIIIIIIIIIICK!!!! lmao
>>
is the show ironic or not?i don't get it
>>
>>86563313
That's because you're a pleb.
>>
U related to Bavakwa ??
>>
>>86551025
This. It's why I still like season 1
>>
>>86561518
>King of the Hill
Currently watching for the first-ish time, are seasons 5+ like zombie Simpsons or still watchable.
>>
>>86564173

They're still consistently good, they just aren't pure gold like the first 5
>>
>>86560694

thats by the old writers

so the last good episode
>>
>>86550910
I don't understand, the purge episode had the most dumbed down plot of them all.
>>
>>86564264
Lucky singlehandedly killed KotH. Amazing how one character can utterly derail an entire show.
>>
>>86550910
>tfw your show peaks at episode 4
