You really do need to get into the mindset of the faggot atheist Redditor to understand why this show is so popular. These people have never heard of adult animation in their lifes that wasn't stuff like Family Guy, it was completely alien to them. And they can't laugh at these shows because they consider these shows stupid. They want a show that isn't necessarily smart or funny or well-written, but that appears to be to appeal to their surface-level taste. Because these people live for that mindless self-validation. They don't actually understand what makes for good writing or good comedy, nor have they ever picked a book about physics. They want to pretend they do so and circlejerk themselves, that's what matters. Rick and Morty is just perfect for its demographic: these same college-age self-important Bernouts who "fucking love science". The entire foundation of the show is built upon the dichotomy between "silly sci-fi humor and references" and " things are super deep and tragic bro". This pseudo-intellectual "nothing even matters, I'm insecure about existence, we are all going to die" bullshit that R&M shits out in almost every episode is what appeals to it's audience. The show doesn't actually have the tact to even begin to offer an interesting presentation and discussion of any philosophy, so it spouts these edgy teenage catchphrases. Nevermind the bean-headed, noodle-limbed unexpressive character design, or how the story is non-existent and only comes up when the writers beg you to feel something for these characters so devoid of substance, or how the entire show is a trendy forgettable scenario of the week memefest with just enough sci-fi references to trick kids into thinking they are smart for understanding them, or how the characters have somehow been reduced to even more obnoxious caricatures than before, none of these things matter. What matters is that it appeals to the millenial redditor audience, and that's what's selling Rick and Morty.

good argument

This is me. Literally me. No other character can come close to relating to me like this. There is no way you can convince me this is not me. This character could not possibly be anymore me. It's me, and nobody can convince me otherwise. If anyone approached me on the topic of this not possibly being me, then I immediately shut them down with overwhelming evidence that this character is me. This character is me, it is indisputable. Why anyone would try to argue that this character is not me is beyond me. If you held two pictures of me and this character side by side, you'd see no difference. I can safely look at this character every day and say "Yup, that's me". I can practically see this character every time I look at myself in the mirror. I go outside and people stop me to comment how similar I look and act to this character. I chuckle softly as I'm assured everyday this character is me in every way. I can smile each time I get out of bed every morning knowing that I've found my identity with this character and I know my place in this world. It's really quite funny how similar this character is to me, it's almost like we're identical twins. When I first saw this character, I had an existential crisis. What if this character was the real me and I was the fictional being. What if this character actual became aware of my existence? Did this character have the ability to become self aware itself?

This. Plebbit invaded and raided this board. I went to double chan long ago but the Sup Forums board there is slow af so I come back to puke at the pleb

This.

>not going down with the ship

I want Reddit to leave

>there are people on this board who unironically browse and enjoy posting on Reddit

s1>s2>s3

More women = lower quality

What the fuck you expect me to do? Of course I was part of the exodus. Half chan is dead. It's mainstream now, reddit is everywhere, only board that I still visit here /gif/ for porn which is full of cucks, /lit/ that somehow is still barely touched by these bitches and Sup Forums, where I can see how shit Sup Forums is.

...

go down swinging maybe?

>Implying Reddit is bad
It's alot better than this shithole.

You clearly never knew what this community was

I know this site used to be good. But it isn't anymore, making Reddit the objectively superior site.

>Adult Animation
Where I come that meant subbed/dubbed Hentai on VHS

...

It's a kids show, not animation for grown-ups.

the show was fine until this season

>The absolute state of Sup Forums

>Watches XRA
>Is mentally retarded
Typical.

the show is popular because the main characters are a reference to doc brown and marty mc fly (with a modern adult twist on it) and its safe to say that the back to the future movies are some of the most generally well liked movies in existence and untouched by the cancer of reboots/unneeded sequels

I was going to correct you until I realized you described a guy I know who loves the show to the smallest detail. Good job OP. Still think the show is decent though

Are you missing a chromosome by any chance?

Did a pickle fucking kill your parents? If not, I don't understand why you don't like the show. You seem like a moody, pretentious, atheist Redditor in his fucking sophomore year of high school and, wait a minute, those are the people you think like this show, right? So why don't you like it, my good sir?

Peace among worlds fucktard!

Someone needs a tampon

Pretty sickening when you think about it

Then leave and never come back, faggot

Fuck off cuck

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.

Here's a helpful video to explain this episode since it went over your head obviously.

No, I love pissing off autists like you.

I got that one too. Reddit is just another name for what the 1900s-1950 would have called burgious

We're laughing at you retard, you are the joke
