Thoughts on this show /tv/?
Excited for S3?
Reddick and Memety
>le quirky totally not a writers soapbox redditoon
>>71984816
S2 wasn't very good. Too much reddit pandering. That second improv TV commercial episode in particular was terrible.

>>71985130
I am probably going to regret this, but what does it mean when you say a show is "reddit"
Do you mean popular?
>>71984816
only the first episode had the true doc and mahrty feel
>>71985130
Yeah there were some very poor episodes. The one about the Purge was terrible too, just lazy violence and clumsy social commentary. Not to mention the stupid cat girl who was an asshole and never got any comeuppance because she was a female character. or the weird, poorly-done revelation that Morty is filled with repressed murderous rage
>>71985247
To be fair, she was trying to stop the purge for good. Of course, the ending showed us that they need the purge more than ever because they're retarded.
It's a good show and you're all elitists. Reddit is just a meaningless snarl world at this point.
>inb4 reddit
>>71984816
too popular, i hate it
>>71985130
i didn't like the first impov episode. i'm sure it was hilarious to make but the best thing about the show has always been the crazy twists on sci-fi scenarios (Rick using a tiny universe to power his car. holy shit that was a good episode), not just non sequitur wackiness.
>>71984816
Every time I flip to AS it's either Family Guy or American Dad shit that's on.
>>71985524
What's wrong with American Dad?

Hey reddit

Hey reddit

calling something Reddit means that the show appeals to reddit users, usually through the humor. Here are some ways R&M does that:
>sci-fi
>lots of quirky jokes and anti-humor
>jokes that make fun of right-wingers
>atheist and proud main character
>reference humor
it's a show that wants you to feel smart for "getting it". And reddit eats it up.
I don't really care though, i think the jokes are funny and the plot lines are clever. Great show.
S1 is amazing
>>71985979
I don't remember any right wing jokes besides the Purge cat people elitist but even then that's just the typical sci-fi elitist vs poor people plot line.

yo reddit
>>71986081
this is the main one that comes to mind:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4DO7eQGSvqE
kind of a lazy bit
>>71985149
>>71985979
People who throw the reddit meme around are more likely than not redditors themselves trying to pass themselves off as what they think a channer is.
Don't fall for the bullshit.
>>71986092
Hey reddit
>>71986261
>>>/r/eddit

>>71985561
I love it, but I can't do Family Guy.
>>71985979
>calling the entire genre of sci-fi reddit.
So what was sci-fi for the many many fucking years before reddit? That logic is fucking retarded.
It is really funny
not reddit tho
What I dislike about R&M is the creator's obnoxious lack of a sincere & dedicated approach to the show. The creator's revel in their ironic detachment, exemplified most of all in their improv episodes. As if preemptively shielding themselves from criticism by releasing something deliberately half-assed. It is emblematic to me of the creator's lack of genuine insight or a lack of conviction in their own ability. Which would be understandable given the personalities behind the show itself.
Half-assing is only real philosophy of the creators. The show is conceived & shaped through a click-bait understanding of science, a lifetime of media addiction & the only partially digested nietzschean philosophy of the creators. It knowingly spouts the kind of lazy, autodidact, self-serving, personal philosophy of those weaned in the information-era: "Nothing really matters so do whatever you want."
It's a half-baked nihilism dressed up as cynical realism used to justify a shallow unexamined lifestyle of hedonistic "Dopamine is the greatest good". Ironically championed by those who consider themselves more knowledgeable than the rest of the world because they're armed with an internet connection and a wikipedia tab. It aims to make its audience feel smart & clever without making them think too hard. To validates the choices they've already made & reinforces their lifestyles. To makes them feel superior while downplaying their own shortcomings.
In other words: It's reddit.
>>71986727

At least 90% of 4chan users also browse Reddit whether they admit to it or not.
the TV show episodes were the worst but it's still the funniest show since the eric andre show
legit funniest shows I've seen in 5 years
>>71986738
Its just a good show, you massive sperg.
I can't think of many better things on TV right now. Can you?
>>71986671
>That logic is fucking retarded.
How so?
"EPIC WIN xD le Derpina approves :)" was used on 4chan in its early days, now it's 100% reddit.
>>71986872
>just turn off your brain bro huh huh
I like how they portray aliens, it's pretty realistic.
I mean if aliens were real they would be exactly like that.

reddit loves sci-fi, so sci-fi media is inherently "reddit" according to /tv/. See: Dr. Who, Gaurdians of the Galaxy, Firefly, Futurama, The Avengers, etc.
nothing's changed about the sci-fi genre, just the way /tv/ perceives it.
honestly i think calling something "reddit" is fucking idiotic and the worst form of shitposting. I was just trying to define what it means for the other anon
>>71986872
You're angry because you know he speaks the truth

Looking forward to the next season of both, desu.

I don't watch TV for much other than entertainment. Why do you take it so seriously? If I want to stimulate my brain I'll fucking read, or practice a skill.
Can we agree that the first improv episode was pure gold?

I never go on reddit but the reddit meme is still embarrassing to me. I cringe so hard when I see people just spouting reddit, reddit, you're reddit, this is reddit. Why the fuck are you so obsessed with reddit you fucking newfags.

wow valid criticism in a shitposting thread. it's a shame R&M threads devolve into "REDDIT!!" pretty much immediately.
what's weird is I agree with your post but I still find R&M wildly entertaining. The personal philosophy of the creators is incredibly heavy-handed, but there are redeeming aspects. I enjoy the clever use of sci-fi tropes (multiple universes, fractured time, the matrix) and the unpredictable nature of a half-assed show

The creator of Rick and Morty says he dislikes reddit because they are too nice, and prefers 4chan for being more blunt. Seriously.
>>71988077
Reddit's getting good at smokescreens and false-flags
Two words: Reddit and Memey
This reddit thing is a joke right?
No one will actually not watch a show because its deemed too much like a show a website would watch?

Will you please stop being faggots. We need to just admit that we all have reddit accounts already. Being a redditor is nothing to be ashamed of and honestly we're on the same side. Reddit and /tv/ are allies now to fight against the right-wing /pol/ cancer on this board.

Rick is more of a nihilist
"You know how Justin Roiland can screech and it sounds kinda funny?"
"Yeah"
"Let's make a show based on that"

Roiland admits he just sat in a recording booth drinking just coming up with dumb on the fly. I dont think its ironic detachment but more Roiland being drunk and not giving a shit
> It is emblematic to me of the creator's lack of genuine insight or a lack of conviction in their own ability. Which would be understandable given the personalities behind the show itself.
Alot of this could be applied to Dan Harmon's fedora tipping pseudo edginess as seen in Community's endless stream of 80's references and Whedon speak

Its a crazy ADHD ridden show with no internal consistency or actual knowledge of science sure but half-assed? Sure Rick is literally "Do whatever you want with consequences" the character but is that a bad thing in a animated sitcom with characters such as a half Hitler half Lincoln cyborg man and talking dogs who take over the World but he is an natural evolution of the Jerkass Hero trope from characters such as Doctor Who and Sherlock but taken less seriously but played for laughs
>It's a half-baked nihilism dressed up as cynical realism...
Modern comedy has a detached nihilistic feel to it because to act sincere is to be sneered at by the Public
>>71987484
Yeah because noone else stole content and memes from us before
Who the fuck cares about reddit?
It's just full of normies and spergs talking bullshit
It's a broad sitcom that uses creative sci-fi concepts as the premise for its scenarios, kind of like Red Dwarf.
However, it shoots itself in the foot with cringeworthy improv and "poop le doop XD" lolsorandum humour.
>>71986237
WBC and Nazis don't equate to modern right-wing.
Season 1 was great. Became reddit-tier by season 2 though.
