now that there's nothing new coming in the near future, and Season 2 has long settled in everyone's minds, let's have a good 'ol wholesome discussion thread.
>>78404822
Le Reddit and memey
The show was good.
Then it got quite bad.
How often has a show gone from good to bad to good again, rather than just remaining bad?
>>78404822
First season was great pretty much from start to finish.
Second season was a rollercoaster.
>>78404908
I don't think it's as bad as you say. They weren't as joke after joke drop dead funny, but they had moments.
I'd say the only generally bad one was interdimensional cable 2, and the one before that? I dunno, I forget the bad ones.
Fuck off reddit.
>>78404822
Both seasons were equality good with mostly good episodes. Most of the criticism behind it comes from your average anon who wants to feel special about himself by being against it. It's literally the best thing on TV.
Unexpectedly fantastic first season.
More rocky second season but, like Roiland said, lower low points and higher high points than the first.
>>78404988
I liked the first three episodes. The only one past that I liked was the one where they went inside the car battery.
Every other episode left me with a sour taste in my mouth, like not just not good, but actually bad. Made me cringe a lot. I'm kinda grateful to be honest, now I'm not looking forward to season 3. Doubt I'll even watch it unless what I see on /co/ is majority great opinions.
>>78404822
I can't wait for you guys to get upset when season 2's cliff hanger is resolved within the first episode of S3.
>>78405027

Not a single family guy joke I've ever seen has been close to as bad as the dancing at the end of the Purge episode.

This is your kind.
>>78405117
This. It wasn't even good satire.
>>78404822
I liked both season 1 and 2. Both seasons had some episodes I could do without, but enough good ones to keep me interested. It's a great show.
I'm hoping for Interdimensional Cable 3.
>>78405219
>Wanting more shitty Dan Harmon improv
Hope he ODs soon
>>78405303
>not liking Dan Harmon improv
Why would you even watch it if you don't like that? It's 80% of the show.
It feels like in season 2 they renamed the show "Rick, Morty and Summer".

It's nice to see people rightfully trashing this show.
3 months ago people were jacking off this show so hard that the blowback chafing has finally set in.
>>78404822
can we all agree that the show went to shit immediately after the first season? I've never seen a more drastic drop in quality so fast.

The first two episodes of the second season were fine. Most people forget this because they were leaked ahead of the rest of the catastrophe
>>78405937
He can't follow through on anything, which is why he's still technically a virgin
You people are like 14 year olds telling people how childish they act

Ah, 4chan never change.

Very rarely.
Aqua Teen is the only show that did this from what I recall.

That's just called inconsistent quality.

>>78405987
this
The episodes that are good have a strong enough A plot to get past all the checklist B plots
>>78405987
you forgot the subtle lore that is littered through out the show as visual clues that will eventually result in a mindfuck ending
>>78405992
Aqua Teen never really got bad though. It was pretty damn consistent throughout it's run.

So I'm watching 2BF and Woolie cannot stop talking about fucking Meseeks.
>>78406004
lol
>>78406160
So deep XD
>>78406124
The seasons around the time the movie was released weren't that good.
One episode had Shake microwave a kitten. It felt like the show was desperately trying to be like Family Guy.
>LE REDDIT!
Do you even know how to communicate in ways that isn't a buzzword? It all has no meaning, and you are just flinging shit around with no basis for your shit.
Constructing a tower with no support, you aren't proving a point or even trying to make one.
>>78406172
>the best thing to ever come from Adult Swim
God I hate that shit. That's how you can tell they barely even watch AS. When shows like Harvey Birdman, Sealab, and SGC2C exist, how the fuck can you say that with a straight face?

>expecting actual discussion on a Mongolian basket weaving board

Then the children needs to fucking leave.
I really hate how desperate the writers are to make us feel bad for Rick. Yeah, okay, he's had a shitty life. But he is a terrible person, absolutely atrocious human being, a few minutes of humanity and compassion doesn't excuse that.
>>78406245
Morality can't survive infinity.
>>78406191
>One episode had Shake microwave a kitten
and in the same episode Shake ironically got shoved into a microwave by all the animals he killed. Even ATHF at it's worst wasn't bad, just not up to par with the early seasons.

Metalocalypse is nothing to get excited about. It's like that show you watch when there is nothing better on. Glad it got shafted by SuperJail.
>>78407445
>BU-BU-BUT IT'S IRONIC
>IT'S BAD ON PURRRRPOSE
>>78407453
No, I could go back and watch some of the better episodes and they'd be entertaining, I really don't know how they fucked up so bad. I am willing to admit episode 3 of season 2 wasn't that great.
I will say that I HATED the first TV episode.
The reason why Rick and Morty is liked is because it got a higher budget. The Boondocks where high budget and everyone liked that show.
>>78407545
Just having a real budget is enough to put you in the top tier of AS shows
>>78407532
Nope. It was always shit.
>>78407561
AS shows are usually good when the have a realistic budget. That would mean they could get a competent of writers.
>>78407545
And yet with a high budget it still looks like something a 4 year old shit out on the fridge.
>>78407601
unlike R&M
>>78407654
What do you want it to look like, Da Vinci?
>>78407654
Eh, tbqh family it looks fine, it's the writing that sucks.
>>78407751
Oh, so clever!
>>78407445
You can't use an improvised joke as an example.
No one wrote it.
>>78407864
>IT'S SHIT ON PURPOSE GUYS
>IT'S NOT REALLLLLLY SHIT BECAUSE IT'S IMPROV
Shit is shit.
Whether it's carefully crafted in a writers room, or shat out on the spot. People who say "It's improv" like that makes any sort of difference are fucking retards.
>35 posters

Boondocks first season didn't have as high a budget and that was the best season.

What is Moral Orel?
>>78404908
Korra had this sort of quality curve, though it was never actually good. It just went from okay to trash to okay
Can I start from the beginning of this show or is there a certain point to jump in at? I want to start watching this with my brother.
>>78413981
And finally it plunged down into absolutely unwatchable.
Name another cartoon show on tv ballsy enough to do a full improv episode
>>78414109
I never bothered to watch s4, was it actually worse than 2?
>>78405022
This really is a fantastic time in TV. This show is as fucking brilliant as the venture bros, as gleefully silly as space ghost, as irreverent as south park, and... jesus christ it does things with bizarre concepts that even the best sci-fi TV never touched.. And then plays them exactly as they would play out with real people in real life
>>78414046
You should start from the beginning. There's not so much episode-to-episode continuity as a sort of escalation. Watching out of order would ruin the mood. You'd be like "why is Rick acting like such and such when we just saw him deedly doo"
>>78404822
>11 mentions of reddit so far this thread, the autism is real, you're a real special snowflake anon
IMO people overblow the drop in quality way too much, though season 1 was clearly better even without the novelty quality of it. S2's Total Rickall is still my favorite episode of the whole show
>>78416292
>>78404974
Okay ima say something and I want someone to try to disagree:
season 2's first half was fan-fucking-tastic and its second half was pretty meh. Okay in parts, but generally a letdown. Total Rickall is the last good one
Season one
>Every single episode is a masterpiece, except for the sexbot and pilot
Second Season
>maybe four good episodes, with the worst improv I have ever seen.
Thanks Justin and Dan.
>>78415397
Okay thanks
>>78414156
>ballsy
Lazy as fucking shit.
>>78404822
I feel like Rick and Morty I judge more based on individual jokes and moments than on complete episodes. Even in watching some of my least favorite episodes with boring endings, I'll still leave feeling satisfied from one or two perfectly thought out punchlines and moments
>filter the word reddit
>half the posts in this thread are filtered
Christ, you guys are autistic sometimes. There's quite a few genuine criticisms in this thread and then the rest of the posts are "haha im more mature than u go back to little kids websites like reddit xD". Has /tv/ overlapped to /co/?
>>78419417
Whenever a show obtains massive popularity, /co/, being the cess pool of contrarian hipster faggots it is (myself included), turns on that show like rabid dogs.
>>78416292
Honestly, I think season 2 is about on par with 1.
I'm thinking the problem is no one on /co/ expected R&M to be as good as it was so season 1 came out, was hella fuckin balls to the wall awesome and once season 2 rolled around we set fucking unrealistic standards so S2 automatically looked worse.
Mark my words, because of that and the general consensus that S2 was shit, even though it wasn't, S3 will be praised for being better than s2 but worse than S1.
