Jerry was set up to improve after Whirly Dirly. Why did they make him swing back to being a complete loser in this episode?

BUUURP- BETA
BUUUURP-MALE
BUUUUURP-SEXIST
BUUUURP-CLOSETED RACIST

Because the writers are trash, and certain writers are just fans of the show who push their politics onto it while stroking a certain flaccid ego peppered with gray hair.

Not sure if you noticed, but Rick and Morty doesn't have the tightest or most coordinated writing crew, or a lot of focus on continuity. It's fine for self-contained adventures, but stumbles with season-long character arcs.

Feminist writers need a target for their man hate

Because this last episode's A-plot had about three different episode idea's compressed into one mess.

The fantasy world, beth's psychopathic tendencies, and the incestual cannibalism ideas all could have carried more fulfilling plots on their own, or at least been more important elements rather than the barely explored ones they were.

DUDE NOTHING MATTERS LMAO
I was going to introduce this show to my friends but I'm starting to think it's too smart for them.

because you watch garbage

>someone was butthurt enough to make this

Because he's not supposed to win. If the characters get better the show is over. They've made this pretty clear time and again.

To be honest all those observations could be straight out of the mouth of another undergraduate that tries to be ahead of the curve by being a contrarian retard in order to prove how much all above that he really is.

Hello, Reddit!

Because Jerry is the ground of the show. His entire purpose is to serve as a vessel for the audience's hate. Rick is the alpha male, Jerry is the beta male. The only way Jerry can be improves without destroying his purpose is to develop his character in such a way that he comes to terms with what he is.

>expecting anything from a Beth and Rick daughter-dad plot episode

I completely didn't care at the end when they set up the "Is Beth a clone?" question. Beth is just such a shit character that replacing her with a clone doesn't matter.

Should have made a 12 episode season and left the last two episodes for plot. Only 30 minutes for Citadel and Evil Morty? What about Phoenix Person and Tammy? Too much plot, too little time.

I miss the old SCIENCE!

>Closeted racist
When and how did Jerry ever express racist sentiment, closeted or otherwise? Are the writers aware their unofficial fanfiction isn't canon with the show?

Is that image supposed to offend me or something? Are you retarded?

you sure got offended when he implied rick and morty is just 2017's big bang theory

>I completely didn't care at the end when they set up the "Is Beth a clone?" question.
The entire point of the question is either bait or Chekhov's Gun. You could have immediately assumed that the point of the question is that whatever she chose it didn't matter. It didn't matter for the plot, it didn't matter for Rick, it didn't matter for the kids or for Jerry. Beth could make her choice and get off scot-free with no regrets.

The fact that they didn't elaborate on it either stands as an intentional jab to annoy people who need resolution in their stories, a major plot line later down the road, or just a bit they can do for an end-of-episode joke where Beth drops dead while having sex with Jerry only for the real Beth to come walking in through the bedroom door.

Harmon has learned not to write himself into a corner.

It's a different dimension.

And Jerry accepting the kind of person he is a something that would work in a movie or a comic, but not in a long-running television show. For a show to work, it is best that by the end the characters return to who they were. Jerry had a huge arc when he actually broke up with that alien chick, but seeing that he was being used made him bounce back to his "I'm a good person, nothing is my fault" shit that makes Jerry such an unlikable character.

Not really. It is just that I correctly pointed out how his original image reads like something made by someone like the person I previously described.

Really? Did we watch the same episode?

Jerry improved lots. He's gotten better at owning up to mistakes, even admitting to things that he hasn't done (racist sexist lol).

He did break up with the chick but in the wrong way. He did it twice and suffered injury for it.

Also Rick was looking out for him in the after credits scene, showing a growing respect between the two.

That's retarded

this episode is so stupid
if beth wanted to go on adventures, then how would making an exact clone of her make her chill out?
the clone would feel the exact same way and still complain
if manipulating the clones mind could remove the desire, then why cant he just do that to the real beth so she can chill out

Seems like a joke considering Kiara did the exact same thing Jerry did.

But what do I know, I'm fucking stupid.

the episode was full of so many jumps i'm convinced the episode was originally 2 but they scrapped them and mashed them together to make 1

I'm convinced that they got about halfway through writing the script for the FroopyLand thing before they realized how gross and creepy it is. That's why they just dump the exposition on you in 10 seconds and speed through it. If they had taken any longer than they did it wouldn't have worked.

Your sense of humour just isn't wicked enough.

Isn't Sup Forums the top importer of blacked porn into Sup Forums next to Sup Forums? lmao

Either way, with all of that, I don't care. If it had been any other character, the mystery would be appealing. But Beth is just such a shitty character that it doesn't matter, and it doesn't matter even if it doesn't matter.

The episode could have been all about Jerry's love life and I would have cared more

This. He dropped the ball in accusing the kids, but once cornered, he only took a few prods to own up compared to other times where he'd spend several minutes trying to save his own ass.

The clone probably didn't get the memories about the secret world. Rick might have said it would have all of her memories, but he could have just been speaking about everything prior to that day.

>showing a growing respect between the two
Rick only killed that alien so he could bang Jerry's ex

>tfw Sup Forums gets triggered as fuck
good episode if solely for this moment

The same reason they had Beth getting upset over being dumped immediately after an episode where she marries some other guy. The episodes aren't really written with other episodes in mind.

What did Sup Forums get triggered about?

That's an assumption, maybe a fair one, but still an assumption. It's also fair to assume that one thing just led to another.

Not only that but he also 'confessed' to something he obviously wasn't. He swallowed his victim complex and satisfied Summer by playing along with her accusations. That takes a lot.

Don't mind him, tumblr doesn't actually know what triggered means.

Summer called Jerry a racist beta because he was dating an alien to get Beth jealous, but the alien was doing the exact same thing.

I've noticed as the show has gotten worse there are a lot more butthurt people who fanatically defend it anyway.

Which thing wasn't he? He was being a bit racist by bringing up the head thing, even if he had originally just brought it up as a random projection to what he assumed the kids were being biased about. Though I do have to say, Morty is at fault for not just shushing his dad and saying "Bitch likes to hunt 24/7."

I don't usually complain, I still like the show mostly.
But tonight was bad really really bad.
I rolled my eyes a few times and rick's speech to beth about "smart" people was one of the most cringe inducing things I have seen in awhile.
The tide is turning.

At post 95576915 it's really different when a man cheats on his wife to make her upset. Studies show male cheating is the result of considerably more insecurity than if the woman experiments with someone else.

spoon feed me link please i dont have cable

the butthurt is palpable

Whatever you say Satan....

>not knowing how to reply
>you literally click on the post number
This cartoon brings these people here

Sup Forums gets triggered about everything involving r&m, it's getting sad.

Or the guy was in the "I don't want to give you a (You)" mood, because some people honestly think that strongly about the (You) function for some retarded reason.

>call a bad show bad and explain why
>"TRIGGERED"

How are those comments implying some sort of fanatical defense? And one of those is on point. You cannot tell me you have not noticed the existence of the typical contrarian dude that has no other resource to pretend to be superior or something.

a big problem with the episode is that it spent more time telling than showing

>reasons given are the female writers and using a meaningless insult into a beta stand-in character
>Hurr I-I'm not triggered. Tumblr!

I'm from Sup Forums and I like R&M.
What now?

That level of passive aggression is pathetic then, why even bother replying if you don't intend on engaging the other person?

So... Beth chose the clone, right?

>reasons why are cheap cultural references, high school level philosophy, mouth diarrhea, crude displays and blatantly shilling for corporations
>they are even given a little paragraph explaining each using language even a retard can understand
>it's still too complex for the average R&M fan

G-GOD ISNT REAL MORTY

Because the owner of tumblr could purchase this board but only this board tomorrow and the brainlet userbase of Sup Forums would defend it to the death, they cant accept fat retarded chicks who don't mesh with Sup Forums at all love this place

Because, people are retarded and treat the (You)s way more seriously than necessarily. Hell, don't you recall how everyone acted like jonesy crack addicts when the (You)s were removed for like a day and you only had the dots? Shit was hilarious

That's the implication. Though I'm wondering if it's a fakeout and original Beth stayed while she had the clone go off on adventures, figuring that by giving it the adventurous life she never had, she can feel accomplished in having made a selfless decision.

Either Jerry never learns or his memory gets wiped every time.

Fuck off back to your containment board.

I guarantee it. And it will have some sort of plot relevance later so they can go "PSYCH! She totally cloned herself! She doesn't love being a mom that much! In your face viewer!"

...

Those explanations are nowhere to be found ITT, unless you mean an autist's rendition of "everything I don't like is reddit" image. If he wasn't triggered as fuck, he wouldn't have wasted so much time making the gay image, nor would he have relied on the much beloved trigger words like "reddit" or "juvenile nihilism". Plus, the sole example of "corporate shilling" is a joke about a 10 years old outdated dipping sauce. Does its popularity hurt your feelings, baby bitch?

Me too.

The blatant shilling could be just the show being meta and Rick trying to preserve the show ruthlessly or an specific example of an absurd goal. But you already knew that, right?

>that fake radio call where the woman calls up a dude and learns he only slept with her to get back at her son for bullying him when they were kids

Found the Tumblrina.

>Rick and Morty formally sponsored by McDonalds with both the creators and restaurant chain collaborating to bring back the fucking sauce that you have to fucking pay extra for
>"I-it was just meta satire!"

you tell him, fellow kekistani!

jerry is a boring character whose arc ended last seasons but they dont want to write him out because chris parnell is on a contract

Nigga, this is Sup Forums, everyone's feefees are hurt 24/7 because of fucking cartoons. Just like Sup Forums is angry about games.

>The blatant shilling could be just the show being meta

Reddit and Memey fans everyone.

agnosticism is a form of atheism as it denotes a lack of a positive belief in a deity

I mean if that hurts your commie anti-business feels, then you are free to not watch the show.

anyone have the link to the mega?

>agnosticism is a form of atheism

Reddit and Memey fans everyone.

You can be an agnostic theist though.
Agnostic atheism is.

>tries to feign high ground as his show sells out before his very eyes
>tries to fit in with a nazi pic

Are you talking shit about Bill Nye? The man's smarter than you, deal with it, kid.

>fit in with a nazi pic
>fit in
fuck off

So you are gonna address the pic because what I said is true? Glad to see you admit defeat.

it denotes a lack of enough evidence to believe, not an abandonment of all spirituality

Yeah, I also thought it was weird. Like if that person honestly believes Sup Forums is a den of nazis or something. It really shows how much of a contrarian self-hating normie he is.

MY

no, agnostic atheism they way your think of it is a contradiction

>tf2 pic

ANACONDA

literally because women wrote this episode

Holy shit. That line was just a joke. Jerry wasn't a loser in this episode. He only did the exact same thing Kiara did. Jerry's just the relatable one in a family of utter psychopaths. The rest of his family is just fucked in the head.

>SEX

Rubber Nen? What are we trying to meme here?

Improvement is a journey user, not a destination.

In all honesty the whole commercial product placement thing isn't wrong. Before McDonalds it was DUDE WAL-MART SELLS NINTENDO 3DS'S, GIVE US FREE STUFF NINTENDO. Then you have the Carls Jr. commercials that weren't even in the show, it was just Rick and Morty and a bunch of hamburgers.

You can defend it once or twice but after a while it's literally just blatant marketing from a show that blatantly markets, and every fucking time it's audience will eat it up, which is fine but then they simultaniously say they're too cool for school and beat the system while being the system's bottom bitch.

You don't even need the rest of the infographic when you just throw that out there.

Not the same user though. Agnostic atheism is weak atheism which is lack of belief in a god and not claiming knowledge on its non existence, unlike strong/gnostic atheism which believing god does not exist and claiming knowledge of its non existence. Try again, faggot.

I know this is the designated tumblr whale thread but come on now, at least try
