Why doesn't /co/ discuss this show more often. Probably the best animated comedy on CN's [Adult Swim] Airing thingy. Maybe next to Bob's burgers though I'm not sure if that show was made by Adult Swim or just airs on the channel like family guy or something.
>>84571222
Why not start the thread with a topic worth discussing instead of some meta shit about how we don't talk about some show.
/co/ doesn't like talking about shows that are generally well liked by /co/. It ends up just being a topic where the detractors get a chance to vent and people that like it don't do much besides masturbatory congratulations for liking something "good". There's not a whole lot of actual discussion that needs to be done about it.
Second season had some decent episodes but overall I thought it was rather lacking compared to the first.
Honestly they could have ended the show with the love potion episode (was that the season finale?) and it would have been perfect.
>>84571504
Oh you fag
>>84571521
I thought the season finale was the entire thing with the wedding and Rick going to jail.
>>84571557
Wrong season.
>>84571581
Oh, I guess I misread it since it started the post talking about second season.
>>84571606
Yeah that was my bad, should have said first season finale.
>>84571222
It's a critically acclaimed and well liked show with a large fan base. However, unlike SU it's aimed at adults. Therefore /co/ dislikes it since its popular with their demographic and /co/ is populated with contrarians.
>>84571222
At some point in the middle of season 2 people decided it was 'reddit' because it got 'too' popular.
Welcome to 4chan.

I like this comic anon
do you mind if I save it?
>>84571823
Sure you can, but you see there is a 0.50$ fee since that comic is actually my propriety.
I'll send you my paypal data for the trasfer. You can go on and save it now and pay me later, no big worries.

>>84571521
Season finale was the party with Adolf Lincolm. Season 2 start after they clean the party and unfreeze time.
>>84571222
Just as >>84571477 predicted I'm going to take my chance to complain about the show.
I think it's good but I think it's way overhyped by people who think it's the best show ever made, which just makes me think they haven't seen a lot of shows to begin with. I think the animation is pretty bad and the humour can get kind of obnoxious with its "lets insert random gibberish words into things because that's hilarious and witty" jokes that wear thin almost instantly, as well as the jokes that are a lot less smart than the writers think they are and come off as really, I don't know what the right word is here but "reddit-y" which is a shame because the writers can come up with some really clever jokes and concepts and I feel that the characters really aren't that interesting, they mostly just don't make me want to know more about them but just wait until they shut up so something else can happen, I mean are people on this board really invested in Jerry and Beth's marriage? I can't say I am.
Again, I like the show, but I just don't think it's the show a lot of people make it out to be.
>>84572013
unsubstantiated accusations of memery is itself a meme
and you are a memelord, with nothing but meme thoughts in your tiny meme mind
>>84571766
Oh come on, even 4chan agrees ASM-2 was hot garbage.
It could be worse, at least it tries to tell a story and have a sense of continuity, as opposed to the dozens of dumb eleven minute stoner shows bloating the channel.
>>84572039
>s well as the jokes that are a lot less smart than the writers think they are and come off as really, I don't know what the right word is here but "reddit-y"
Pretentious?
But yeah while I disagree with you for the most part a lot of what you said are pretty fair criticisms, and even I admittedly get tired of jokes like "IT'S A WHOLE DIMENSIONS ABOUT BUTTS LOL" type of low effort humor shit.
It's fairly overrated honestly. The burping and stuttering is grating, and the characters are pathetic and annoying, not in am endearing way, like Snarf.
The underlying themes of permissive apathetic liberalism and nihilistic absurdity are also distasteful and degredating
I want Jerry to go to this level.

>>84571766
this isn't accurate at all, I have no idea what reddit likes, all I know is reddit is a boogie man.
The boys vs girls episode they did was really bad
>>84571222
we just had a several day long thread about the show actually
I like it.
It reaches down inside me and gives me the same kind of pleasure that Sealab 2021 did.
>>84572306
I like it.>It reaches down inside me and gives me the same kind of pleasure that My father did.
>>84571726
Yeah, that's how 4chan has always worked. At first you try to justify and excuse it, then you just come to accept that it's just how anon operates and go along with it.
>>84572172
but then every third episode tries so hard to make you cry. and I do agree, its sad Rick did not successfully kill himself and rid the universe of his evil influence; but not that sad
>>84572407
It's easy to go too far with this mentality though and begin disregarding people's genuine thoughts and opinions though
>>84572102
To be honest, the whole comic seems more representative of /tv/ than /co/ (many /co/mrades unironically like the most critically acclaimed superhero films such as The Avengers, Civil War and TDK while also hating films such as BvS).
>>84572172
Not really pretentious but psuedo-intellectual kind of jokes, like the joke about Schodinger's Cat, it just stands out to me because it's the sort of joke that isn't smart but people who think they are smarter than they are would find funny because they think it's obscure and only someone as massively intellectual as them would make and understand when really it's an incredibly accessible joke that anyone can understand just from cultural osmosis of everyone already making the joke a million times before or just Googling it. I'd really expect the show to make fun of people who make Schrodinger's cat jokes rather than earnestly
I don't know what it is but jokes like that really bug me, they just leave me with an "oh, right" feeling in my stomach whenever I see them and a most of the post-cancellation episodes of Futurama left me feeling that too, and it is a lot rarer when they are in Rick and Morty but they just stand out a lot to me because I know the writers can be a lot funnier and more insightful than just basically massaging the ego of its audience.
>>84571222
I don't like it.
>>84571222
We had multiple threads for each episode back when new episodes were coming out, as well as multiple threads for whenever Justin rustled tumblr's jimmies. If you want to talk about something recent, talk about this.

>>84571222
>Why doesn't /co/ discuss this show more often.
We do that when new episodes air.
You might as well ask why /co/ doesn't talk about The Venture Bros.
If a show doesn't have new episodes, it's not going to have a lot of threads.
>>84572500
well, that IS the primary roblem. its a high-concept sci-fi show by 2 shmuucks who's scientific education consists of B-movies and cracked articles
>>84571222
It's alright, I think that the first season had better highs but lower lows but was still overall more interesting then the second season. Season two just felt too safe, which is a shame because the first 2 episodes were excellent. It doesn't help that the show really shifted focus from being Rick and Morty to being more like Rick and those other assholes.
There are definitely people on here who are contrarians who dislike the show because it got popular, but overall there's not a lot to discuss until the next season. Even when people do make threads, no one actually wants to discuss the show - just threads like yours, or threads about waifuing Summer/and or girl-Morty
>>84571726
The /pol/ bit is pretty stupid but everything else is pretty spot on.
>>84571222
>Why doesn't /co/ discuss this show more often.
I've seen this same line posted before in other Ricky and Morty thread OPs
Fuck off, we discussed it a lot before. I don't give a fuck if it's your favorite show.

I'd watch the fuck out of that episode

It's shit.
>>84571222
King of the Hill, Bob's Burgers, American Dad, Aqua Teen, Mike Tyson Mysteries and ESPECIALLY Venture Bros are better than Rick&Morty
>>84571222
There was a thread every day when season two was running and then continuing for like three months afterwards. Sorry you missed it mate.
>>84572543
I'm not knocking their level of scientific knowledge or anything, it's just the jokes that are less of something funny or insightful and just feel like they were yanked out of some obnoxious reply thread on Reddit where they aren't even jokes but just trying to make tortured references to appeal to certain audiences.
It's nothing to do with scientific literacy and I can't even think of good words to describe it but I know exactly when I see it and it is almost always an episode ruiner. Another example is at the end of that episode where the Devil is selling those cursed items and Rick and Summer go around beating up "evil" people, there's nothing funny happening but some of the people that scene appeals to will enjoy it because it's pretty much directly wanking them off.

Wander over Yonder did that right, by the way.
>>84572862
or when rick and cat-girl kill all the rich cat people and dance on their blood?

change /co/ for /tv/ and this is correct
>>84572947
>Wander over Yonder
>Doing something right
>>84572952
Yeah I'd say so. There's nothing really funny happening, unless you both are the direct target of the joke (so in this case people who complain about "the rich being evil" all the time) and don't seem to understand when they are being pandered to.
>>84572407
>that's how 4chan has always worked.
No, that's how it's worked for the last 4 years or so now that it's swarming with insecure tweenage hipsters. There were many years where you could discuss all kinds of things without this particular brand X of retardation. The retardation was actually VIP quality as late as 2008.
>>84572914
>4chan was X political thing 11 years ago.
No. You just see it everywhere you go.
>>84572463
I'll let you do that for me. In fact, why don't you stay there?
>>84573061
>I'm so smart. I know better than to like this because it's pandering to people dumber than me. I better keep watching it so I can tell everyone how bad it is.
You're just as manipulated, sperg.
damn my post was deleted. I'm mildly upset.
>>84573398
No, I genuinely like the show, I've said so about 5 times, I can just spot pandering jokes and I think the writers can do and have done better than that. I don't sit around thinking I'm the smartest person ever and that I will watch what the peasants are watching so I can make fun of it later to my fellow erudites.
Are you upset that you laughed at a joke and someone else on the internet thought it was pandering or something?
>>84573486
You get used to it, m8. They do it for free, after all.

>>84571726
I don't think this is right at all.
This may sound odd, but I've always felt like 4chan has had an underlying ideal of equality that's completely insane and doesn't make any sense, but anon keeps trying to achieve it anyway. A lot of people mistake it for hating just for the sake of hating, but I think it's something else entirely. Like, if the site sees something is popular, it feels that this is somehow getting in the way of objectivity, so it turns around and starts trying to counter-balance it with hate. If something is hated to the point of harming objectivity, they'll flip to the opposite site and start trying add popularity. I think what anon ultimately wants is zero.
It's the same with /pol/. They think affirmative action has gotten to the point where minorities have gained an unfair advantage, so they think promoting racism will somehow cause the two to cancel each other out. If things went too far and minorities were actually being treated unfairly in their eyes, they'd swap sides. They'll just keep going back and forth forever, until things have become even and "fair". But what they consider fair is too out-there to be realistically achievable, so they're just in an endless cycle.
I think this mentality is somehow derived from the site's format itself. Since there are no names, things like reputation aren't factored into a post's content, making any post judged primarily by its content. It's "fair" because it's equal.
But that's just my take on it. Hating popular things is some kind of warped idealism rather than something being done just for the sake of it.
>>84571222
What is there to talk about? It's pretty shallow
>>84573305
it was definitely further left-leaning back then, especially /r9k/. I mean, the original /r9k/, before it became the poopoo pepe board or whatever it is now.

Poopoo pepe disappeared several months ago. Last time I visited it was just feels stuff, normie hating and a lot of bait everywhere, but it still has more normies than it should.

So, what's everyone's favorite [as] show?
