The new Rick and Morty episode was probably the worst of the series. It had a great premise, but was ruined by a few very specific instances
>Rick talking about Reddit >Summer's cringey SJW accusations at Jerry >Beth saying "fakenews"
Its like Justin let Harmon and his feminist harem have full control over the episode. No other episode has had so much current real world politics.
It was distracting and really killed my enjoyment of the plot.
Christopher Myers
Overall just a lackluster episode after some great ones
Camden Cox
I want to root for Jerry, but I hate him so much
Isaac Peterson
...
Isaac Gray
I'm a Summer
Tyler Wright
>not being a Mister Poopy Butthole
Gavin Brown
>had a great premise We all knew that jerry wouldnt actually be able to keep a new girlfriend and episodes about anyone who isnt rick or morty are always shit
Jaxon Reyes
Also get some better shows to discuss fags
Christopher Murphy
Why is it that everything Harmon does ends up like this? Same shit happened with Community.
I don't understand why people/companies intentionally gimp themselves talent wise by meeting diversity quotas. I don't have an issue with women comedy writers, but why didn't they hire some with some actual experience rather than the nobodies they did?
Hunter Morris
I'm sure the average person on this board thinks they're smarter than the average person on this board too. Lots of people like to think they're smarter than they really are.
Carter Sanders
>Beth saying "fakenews" STOP MAKING FUN OF TINYHANDS WAAHH ;__;
Isaiah White
>No other episode has had so much current real world politics. if you cant write a story, you can always copy the headlines
Alexander Barnes
They baited us with next episode's description too. It said that "Rick goes up against the President". So everyone assumed it would be an Evil Morty episode but now it turns out it's just the Keith David President.
Connor Brooks
the stuff you mentioned felt cheap, but i wouldn't mind it were it not such a weak episode in general. some parts with tommy were great, otherwise dull and cliche with a healthy heaping of rebbit dragging it down further
i assume it's the women writers, they're likely given a louder voice in the women-centric episodes (since this one and the mad max one about summer had the same issues)
Isaac Watson
None of this bothered me. What bothered me was Summer being a cunt and Beth yelling and being a cunt the whole episode.
Sebastian Murphy
>Impotent Rage Next year's elections are going to at least match the butt devastation of the Democrats of 2016
Samuel Allen
Isn't Trump the one who made "fake news" popular in the first place? It was starting to appear in the media, and I think he figured he was nipping it in the bud by using it to describe rival media, and then it all just blew up out of proportion.
Owen Fisher
Fuck this show
All the side characters have made this bizarre descent from semi-interesting to just cunts. It's not even flanderization, they've just all become cunts. Summer is a cunt who wants her ex-boyfriend tortured because he may have not liked her tits. Beth allows Rick to abuse the whole family and blames Jerry for it. Jerry is a spineless coward who turns brutally abusive to his own family when he feels like it. They're all cunts.
The best episode of the season featured nothing but variations of Rick and of Morty, and that's not a coincidence.
Justin Evans
yes fake news isnt a shot at trump and if he thinks it is..well he voted for her after all
Lincoln Watson
im going to agree with op on this one. Rick talking about reddit felt forced and lame ... episode in general felt forced and lame
Lincoln Lee
Pretty much, "fake news" became a popular to write off any negative press that hurt the Democrat agenda (like reports of Hillary's health, which ended up being vindicated by her fainting at the 9/11 memorial) so Trump appropriated it and ran it into the ground. It was surprisingly successful because people now take the term "fake news" about as seriously as they do "problematic" and "triggered", but in all honesty I doubt Trump thought that far ahead and was just shitflinging.
Lincoln Adams
I'm worried that we'll start seeing neckbeards blowing themselves up like jihadis once Trump is out.
Austin Garcia
>finally the evil white people are blowing themselves up so it's not such a distinctly muslim thing to do Keep fantasizing.
Camden Collins
Can someone explain to me why a "rebound relationship" is so bad? Why were Morty and Summer freaking out about Jerry's girlfriend? It really made no sense to me. It it like a stupid feminist thing or something?
Jeremiah Murphy
The female writers despise Jerry because he's a weak man, so they have to find a way to shame him for literally everything he does.
That's it.
Matthew Gomez
>Summer complains Jerry's relationship is moving too fast >Summer literally got married after dating bucket head for like two days in that awful Mad Max episode
Logan Evans
nobody knows anymore, everyone is so angry these days about any perceived injustice and so desperate to publicize their anger that any coherency is lost
Jackson Price
There are not characterizations left in this season. Like the other guy said ITT everyone is just the same flavor of cunt now.
Xavier Smith
Summer has always been a fucking hypocrite.
>cheat on your boyfriend for two weeks >come home >boyfriend breaks up with you, says the relationship just isn't working out >you decide it MUST be because your tits aren't big enough >morph the shit out of yourself >convince your kid brother to brutally mutilate your ex >but it's ok because he "messed with your body image"
Colton Cook
They've found their target demographic with Reddit, at this point they have people over there begging to eat Dan Harmons asshole just to get one plot point from the next episode. They will most likely pander heavily to that crowd until the show is run into the ground.
Brayden Gray

wow stop nitpicking you white beta boy haha go out and get laid instead of remembering things that happened weeks ago

Tales from the Citadel > Vindicators > Whirly Dirly > Shoney's > Morty's Mind Blowers > Toxic Rick and Morty > Pickle Rick > this most recent one > Mad Max
Camden Myers
Meseeks and the space counseling episodes were were pretty good.
Brandon Martin
>Vindicators > Whirly Dirly I already forgot which ones these are. The only episodes that stand out to me at all as decent are Tales from the Citadel and the Premiere, and the Premiere only because it was so isolated from the rest and played for like 8 hours straight.
Adam Ross
>Tales from the Citadel tfw no full series made up of an anthology of loosely related Citadel stories.
Brayden Howard
>from the dusty mesa starts playing
Leo Sanders
Vindicators was the Guardians of the Galaxy/Saw one. Whirly Dirly was the Rick and Jerry episode.
David Morgan
>a show I never liked said the name of the site that makes me screech in real life Get the fuck over it you overgrown baby.
Bentley Turner
ricks doing shitty menial labor still bothers me. Sure they are ricks from different time-lines, but that is a total 180 on rick; they would just get robots/slaves to do it all while putting in the minimum of actual effort
Aaron Lopez
Yeah, they're too cowardly to kill themselves even if it's for their retarded cause.
Carson Ramirez
>It had a great premise honestly, not really rick & morty is officially mediocre
Grayson Gomez
what show is that?
Luis Robinson
I don't think it is. We clearly see that different Ricks and Morties have different levels of intellect. For example, how the fuck did Slow Rick and Doofus Rick invent portal guns? The answer, they didn't. The original Ricks from the Council kidnapped them. Exactly like they did to Simple Rick. Not all Ricks are geniuses. In fact, most aren't geniuses.
Tyler Jackson
Source?
Jaxson Long
>The original Ricks from the Council kidnapped them. *Or appeared before the non-genius Ricks and said "look, we're international geniuses, we have to hide from the galactic government!" and the regular-intellect Ricks went along with them.
Can't really make up for the butt devastation that republicans received in 2008 and 2012. Since, y' know, democrats actually know how to pass bills.
Jason Ortiz
The French fought well during WWI.
Kevin Bell
What's the series on the right
Cameron Hernandez
I agree about it probably being the worst - maybe tied with the Mad Max episode - but the "racist, sexist" line was smarter than people are giving it credit for. Summer was only saying that because Jerry called her racist and implied she was sexist back at the restaurant. It didn't come out of nowhere.
Jaxson Reyes
You really couldn't see how rebounding like that was extremely unhealthy for Jerry?
Brayden Watson
Perfect Hair Forever
Brody Baker
Hmmm wow you're right. It's really weird that they would give Jerry the mentality of a fickle teenage girl. And here I was so used to him acting like a responsible grown-up.
Carson Rivera
Yeah, I actually thought that was pretty funny. Jerry tried playing the race card before and she threw it back in his face. Rest of the episode was utter trash through.
>am I evil? >No, you're smart
Just made me cringe. This show conflates being a sociopath with being intelligent. I'm dumb as a rock and even I know that's not right.
Robert Young
thanks my dude
Aiden Russell
Are there any likeable characters in this show any more? Closest thing to likeable this season for me has ironically been toxic rick.
Ian Foster
DO THE LALALALALALA
Leo Clark
>it's another emasculating Jerry episode, complete with 3WF buzzwords >it's an all the female characters are just as smart as Rick" episode >it's another family drama episode
To think they'd had a pretty good run going after a fucking awful start to the season. Female writers, not even once
Levi Wilson
>90% of women watching a show about male characters >understand neither >they're a Beth
Gabriel Lopez
No, I don't. What's the "healthy" amount of mourning you're supposed to experience before entering a new relationship? And how did you scientifically reach that calculation?
David Evans
Jerry developed an entirely new relationship built on spite and petty revenge. That's obviously an unhealthy mindset to surround yourself with.
If he was doing it out of genuine care or a desire to get on with his life, then that's great. But Summer and Morty took such issue with his girlfriend, because they knew what he was doing from the start.
Easton Powell
The dems didn't really pass alot of bills during that time. Obama had to EO alot of things in like DACA.
Anthony Wright
Ya... its obviously a callback no one missed that part of the joke unless they are retarded. It maybe would have made more sense if he had actually done something racist or sexist so the callback made sense but the episode clearly makes it seem as though jerry just jumped into a relationship with someone clearly not right for him because he was one the rebound (a very common trope). His dilema has nothing to do with her race or sex but the fact that it is clearly a bad match. Making it about jerry somehow being a bigot was so clearly forced.
Michael Stewart
The thing that ruined the episode the most, is that they revealed the guy was fucking and eating things before the play.
They should have waited for the play to make the reveal.
Nicholas Peterson
keep cartoons in their containment board
Dylan Bell
Oh. I thought she was just a nice lady and that's why Jerry liked her.
Jordan Stewart
You don't have to mourn at all. But it's a bad idea to jump into a new, high-commitment relationship in response to losing an old one. If you don't feel like mourning, you can move right on; but some people make hasty decisions before collecting their feelings. That's rebounding, and it tends to not be a great idea.
Carter Peterson
>they're a Jerry.
Jerry has had sex. I'm no Jerry.
I guess Morty hasn't, but I'm the same age as Jerry or older.
Lucas Butler
The end of Citadel Tales has Morty bragging about banging Mermaid girls
Julian Murphy
Why call Jerry sexist? Like, what did he do?
Wyatt Robinson
>what did he do? be male
Camden Butler
Haha xD yeah those parts really ruined an otherwise flawless episode with such great parts as the Poopy DooDoo song xD. That part was Kino! I posted my own clip of it to Facebook and it got over 100 likes that ish was fing hilarious.
If you dont like it then their is only one thing to say about you. And that is...
>>T.Plebain (Spoiler)Lol just joking I wouldnt really insult you for that but just saying I like it :P (spoiler)
Ian Brown
Jerry is the most respectable character tho
Carter Bailey
I can tell that this is ironic shitposting, it's too on the nose. But sometimes I don't know.
Parker Wood
Lol cant take the truth? I heard how everyone here is a Contranian and some of the poeple here hate Rick and Morty just because most intelligent people enjoy it. Lol plus if its because I (Spoiler)messed up the spoilers doesnt mean I dont have a point (/Spoilers)
Michael Baker
>>when u fucked up the spoilers again
You get my point
Matthew Wood
>A dad makes a toilet look like R2-D2, and it breaks the front page of Reddit.
>First, I want you to admit that you're a closet racist, a beta-male sexist, and you dragged everyone into a horrible situation by only thinking of yourself. >Okay. >I want to hear you say it. >[ Sighs deeply ] Look, I'm a closeted racist, and I'm sexist and selfish, and I dragged us all into my sexist, racist bad things because I'm stupid. >Thank you. >Now you're gonna help me, right? >She just did.
>Am I evil? >Worse, you're smart. >When you know nothing matters, the universe is yours.
Ayden Adams
Rick and Memey becomes noticeably dumber when you realize every time they call Rick smart they're just jacking off over his ability to access hammer space.
Oliver Jackson
I don't even care about the women writers but holy shit the last episode was dog shit, whoever wrote it should stop writing, men or women. Out of nowhere Beth is now a genius sociopath like Rick? Really? It was never hinted at or even jokes about, but now suddenly she's Rick 2.0? This is beyond lazy writing, it's downright insulting.
Christian Mitchell
AHH YEH WHAT UP aeronama ah astro na space cat.
Sebastian Lee
Everyone's Poochie now, don't you get it?
Luis Gomez
Thanks for sharing a tweet from a literally who beaner gash with us. Important stuff.
Mason Ortiz
i dont even get why you fags got so triggered over this ep. it was literally nothing.
Adam Roberts
OP's stuff was bad and the episode wasn't funny but this was the real problem.
Joshua Lewis
Who is Morty kidding, giving out relationship advice? He's obsessed with one girl, never got to first base, and once owned a sex robot.
Luis Hill
>tfw to intelligent for other shows
Andrew Butler
Please dont shitpost like this.
Lincoln Cruz
It's not a new thing and it's not all that hard to explain. Rebounds aren't healthy because they're not about the new relationship but about the old one. It's like how they say, if your dog dies, don't run out and buy another dog.
Hudson Walker
it's also implied by the druggie rick trying to make a portal gun and the factory rick asking for a functioning portal gun. the smart ricks go from reality to reality like in the beginning of the episode and offer to any ricks/mortys a place in the citadel, because only ricks and mortys are allowed inside
