Do they hit too close too home?
>>
>>79124020
Not really. My parents fought a lot too but it's something you tune out after a while.
>>
They're still trying. So no.
>>
I wish my parents just opened hated each other. At least there is no bullshit
>>
>>79124020
Dan Harmon actually got divorced, so I guess they're going to too.

How the fuck would any of us know?

Unless you mean our parents, in which case not really.
>>
>>79124020
No

For all it's worth, my parents at least have some redeemable qualities
>>
Summer porn when?
>>
>>79125101
When she stops pissing her pants and starts acting like a big girl.
>>
>>79124136
Probably never right? They've said in conferences before they doubt the show'll ever have strong overarching plots or bring back one-off characters.
>>
>>79124020
more like it memes close to reddit

Fear of having a life partner such as Beth was one of the main reasons I was always wary of long-term commitment before I realized I was asexual, that is.
>>
>>79125287
>or bring back one-off characters
Like Birdperson or Squanchie?
>>
>>79124020
... A little. I feel like I have Jerry's luck a lot of the time where no matter how hard I try to change my situation in life the universe seems fit to just keep me down where I am.

My girlfriend's not a bitch like Beth though.
>>
My parents love each other, but my Primus they will argue over the STUPIDEST LITTLE SHIT.

They once screamed at each other for an hour after they were discussing presidents and my mom didn't specify which Bush she was talking about.
>>
>>79125287
No, they said they clearly made the wrong decision to do that, since the crowd flipped their shit when someone asked if Evil Morty were returning.

In Season 2 they were afraid of getting stale already so they didn't reuse anything except for little scraps, like Bird Person. They'll probably expand more on established elements in season 3 now that they feel comfortable. It seemed like that was a big thing in the commentary and the interview, they'd get really stuck at points and the only way to fix it was to write some silly-ass R&M shit. That's how the season 2 finale got shortened to one episode and the purge episode got put in instead. They couldn't make it cool enough so they just said fuck it and wrote about the duo visiting a purge world.
>>
>>79125770
Maybe they should do what comes naturally instead of obsessing over weird rules they made for themselves and end up half-assing some unenthusiastic bullshit.
>>
>>79125823
They are, that's what I just said. They wrote the purge episode because they got writer's block trying to force a big grand crazy finale to happen, and decided to just go natural instead and do silly hijinks.
>>
Maybe not the same dynamic but gosh darn that "staying together because they think they have to" feeling is pretty damn relatable for me
>>
>>79124020
My Dad's not an unemployed cuckold going through a breakdown and my Mom's not a drunk, so no.
>>
>>79125899
Well it was one of the best episodes so far, so good for them.

>How about we go back to three weeks ago, huh? WHEN YOU WERE ALIVE!
>>
>>79125532
No one asked for your sexuality you maggot. Go back to tumblr if you want to talk about it.
>>
Will they ever get any characterization besides their marriage problems?
>>
>>79126420
They have gotten more, and its been the marriage problems that have brought front and center.


Just because one part of their dynamic is always brought forward to bear, doesnt mean they havent been growing as characters.

Not really, never fought too much as a kid and now that my brother and I have moved out they vacation quite a bit. Fucking love my family

>tfw young parents so if I'm lucky they'll be around another 50 years
>>
>>79124020
They're the worst part of the show. I hate how they will have some big emotional moment at the end of one episode, like finding out their alternate selves were miserable single and they would get together anyways, and then next episode they hate each other again like nothing happened.

If they don't want to give them development then just have them fight all the time and leave out the big "we were meant to be together" moments because its irritating when they then turn around and ignore it.

Great now I can't help but picture Pigeon bragging about his healthy parental situation
>>

I just love it as a reaction image, it works in so many situations
>>
>>79128280
They could bring another part to bear, the relationshit plot has gotten obnoxious.
>>
No, my parents been in a relationship since they were preteens and the only way they fell out of love was when my mother "got" psychosis and started to schlick to Dale Earnhart Jr all day and fell out of love with my father who only sticks around because he values his wedding vows, specifically the "Death due us part".

>tfw my dad told me would of left me and my sister with our mom if he didn't value his wedding vows

Your father might very well be a hero, anon. He might not have stuck around for you but stick around he did.
>>
>>79129481
>>79129656
What the fuck? No, he's a piece of shit. I'd disown my dad if he told me the only thing keeping him from abandoning my siblings was some religious bullshit. Doing the right things for the wrong reasons doesn't make you a good person.
>>
>>79124020
Wouldn't know, only have my mother and I'm an only child. Since I moved out she has a bf and they are literally the perfect couple.

So no, I can't relate.
>>
>>79124020
My parents are divorced so...not yet.
>>
>>79129481
>my daddy is only almost a deadbeat!

You sound black.
>>
And doesn't that feel familiar?
>>79124020
Doesn't that make you shiver; the way things could've gone?
And doesn't it feel peculiar when everyone wants a little more?
And so that I do remember to never go that far,
Could you leave me with a scar?
>>
>>79124020
heck no my dad was an abusive asshole that my mom left her previous husband for and constantly cucked that same husband with my older siblings.

>father takes care of you for 'wrong' reason
>'lol wurst dad, better off without'
Are you people fucking retarded?
>>
How would they? They're relationship is outright unnatural. They utterly hate each other but can't seem to separate.
>>
My parents hated each other and my mom was a horrible drunk, so yeah I can relate. My pop was an alpha though.

Frankly, my dad was a dumbass for staying with her for the kids. She drove drunk all the fucking time, so she coulda easily ruined his life with one bad crash.

I find Beth and Jerry annoying honestly, but they're a pretty realistic portrait of a shitty marriage I guess.
>>
>>79125287

>strong overarching plot

really?

the mystery behind evil morty and the good rick seems to contradict that.
>>
>not one person (You)'d the tripfaggot who has long needed to be banned
/co/ you've done me proud today

>>79124020
Jerry hasn't passed out drunk on the couch after trashing the living room and accusing Beth of sleeping around only to have the cops taze him and bring him to a mental hospital yet.

Yeah this would certianly be super interesting!

Also is Morty dating the jessica of his universe? due to little rick episode.

The first one was great, but the second wasn't so great. I still enjoyed it but it was my least favorite episode thus far.

Nah. I don't think I've ever seen my parents have an actual fight in my entire life. The most they ever got was an occasional huffiness when Dad bought something expensive and frivilous
>>
>>79128895
I feel like this is part of the point of their characters.

They really love each other but at the same time there are things about them that piss each other off.
So they always chooose to stay together, but it never stops being a never-ending struggle.

My parents are completely normal and we have a regular supportive relationship.

Part of me wonders if these complaints stem from genuine filial dysfunction and another part of me wonders if /co/ is just that oblivious to basic human contact.
>>
>>79124020
Some homes, personally I sympathize with Summer's apathy to the whole situation but my family was a whole different kind of dysfunction. Still, the writers were able to make comedy gold out of an intense subject matter so credit where credit is due.
>>
>>79125532

Beth and Jerry got married because he knocked her up in high school.
By the time you're an adult, you should be a lot better at gauging whether or not your partner is going to resent and hate you.
>>
>>79129481

Jesus, dude.
My dad was a lot like that, too. He's old country so he thought getting divorced was not only wrong, but would also mess me up psychologically and ruin my life. (They did end up getting divorced tho)
IMHO it's a lot better to just have separated parents instead of living in a house with two people who hate each other. Unless your mom was threatening sole custody and no visitation or something.
