Really strange ending, almost like they didn't know how to end it. Better than throwing Rick in superjail again as a cliffhanger just to see him Rick his way out in the next season like he does in every episode. People are throwing around the idea of there being a Christmas episode in store this year, which would be a totally fitting holiday to contrast Rick's nihilism if that formula hadn't been done to death ten times over. Who knows, maybe it'll be original, creative and an all around decent episode.

I was ok with pickle rick and a lot of the rest for this season, but the finale was such a let down. It was played so safe that it went limp-dick and there were no consequences for rick's actions. It felt like Rick was getting lampooned this season. He went from being an outcast of the ricks to an omnipotent being.

at the very least this opens up an "alternate timeline" where Beth chose to leave, I'm willing to bet they'll be an episode with 2 Beths in the next season- she shows up from the alternate universe with the portal gun. I'm not going to write that off yet, it might be a good episode.

It was. There were some pretty good episodes, but some real shitters as well. I still can't believe how bland the ending was either. It was the kind of ending you make when you know you're about to get shitcanned, but you also hope to get work elsewhere at the studio. Season 2 had a much better ending than 3. At least there, you had Rick acting selfless even though he plays it off later on. However, Rick confirms his initial act of compassion when toxic Rick gives up to save toxic Morty later in the season. Rick and relaxation showed that to some, being healthy means being a sociopath. The only part of Rick that had any compassion for his grandson was toxic Rick and healthy Morty was very obvious when it came to how emotionless he was. Healthy Morty had no qualms with hurting Rick or anyone else, by how nonchalant he was in threatening Rick in the parking lot.

1) Go back to purely sci-fi, non consequential stories (except for maybe a single episode that has a direct, unexpected connection with an earlier one). If you can't just reset the whole R&M universe to have limited universe hopping moments, at least make a plausible explanation a la "the juice used for universe hopping is so low I can't do this every week, Morty".
2) No Aliens or as little Aliens as possible. The scamming ones were pretty great because they came out of left field, everything else was terrible.
3) No drama apart from a couple of episodes centered on Rick and Morty's relationship, kind of like the episode where Morty chooses his own adventure and ends up almost raped. No shock humor either apart from moments when it's least expected (I literally read some pages of the comic book out of boredom and I could point out the specific pages when shit would hit the fan for no reason).
4) Beth, Jerry and Summer go back to being one-dimensional characters, more specifically drunken, smart but obviously flexible mother (remember, she's okay with her son having a sex doll and Jerry's parents cucking each other) , the voice of reason, down to Earth but obviously unfit for this universe father and a comic relief that spoofs on Teen Drama and occasionally has to help Morty.
5) Center it more on actual pseudo science taken to its limits, it's one thing if Rick gives a coherent but obviously impossible scientific explanation about what's going on and it's a much worse one if he just goes "trust me im smrt".
6) For the love of God, tone it down with the goddamned references. No one but reddit finds a Mad Max episode any funny, especially if you specifically call it out like that. Also, an episode where Rick is self aware that it's just a cartoon (instead of a 4th wall breaking joke every once in a while) would be much better.
6) Have Evil Morty being the actual series villain in the finale, but with a realistic backstory that loops around to the pilot episode. Something like "my Rick made me smart thanks to the mega seeds so I've realized the futility of helping him and I just want to stop Rick Sanchez from tainting universes" or some bullshit like that.

To be blunt, you must have a pretty low IQ to like Rick and Morty. The humour is extremely up and front in your face about it, you don't need to be theoretical physician chemist to know HOW these cheap jokes work. Rick and his nihilistic outlook is cheaply added to his "character"- and his personal philosophy draws from depressed, angsty, teenagers from tumblr who think they can do whatever they want on their safe space website. The fans are unknowingly confused about what even goes on in this show, they think they know, but really, they don't. Their brain cells must be pretty small to think these shows have "such deep meaning," in them. They aren't funny, and it just shows that life is worse in the real world than in R&M's world. Anyone who dislikes Rick and Morty, you have my grace, as you don't follow mindless idiots thinking "Wubba Lubba Dub Dub," is some highly intellegent foreign russian literature or some crap. I'm cringing real hard right now, imagining some fanboy/fangirl pissing themselves over Dan Harmon's "Intellegent writing and jokes" in this show. How sad I feel over them.

The only problem I had wth the show was that Rick was too competent and ahead of everyone else. He destroyed his two biggest enemies in one fell swoop. Although it supports the idea that he's the smartest man ever, it means any future adventure will not have high stakes since Rick will always win. Of course we want the characters to continue to live but this is too predictable. He was more appealing as a crazy grandpa who made gadgets that occasionally backfired instead of a hip nihilist that controls everything. This is why his rant claiming Jerry won was so out of left field, he didn't face any obstacle like that before and lose, why would he give up then? Also Morty's progressive bitterness and disillusionment, although understandable, makes him a lesser foil to contrast Rick.
In summary, the characters need to be more consistent for the stories to work. You can claim Rick keeps his motives unknown on purpose, but in storytelling terms this doesn't work for long.

To be honest, you have to be a pretty average IQ in order to be able to enjoy Rick and Morty.
The humour is somewhat lukewarm, and fairly digestible be it with or without a masters degree in theoretical psychology.
Theres also Rick with his indifferent outlook on the world, being a fairly nondescriptive mixture of the classical understanding of, and the current popculture interpritation of nihilism that is occasionally hit and miss.
Fans and haters alike seem to enjoy crafting often inane and farfetched interpretations of the shows rather mediocre themes and messages.
The shows iconic phrase "Wubba Lubba Dub Dub" appears to cause both irrationally extatic as well as extatically irate reactions among the shows rather median target demographic, strangely enough. Which in itself raises the question if said demographic, and indeed the shows writers, really had any intimate knowledge of classical russian literature or some such among other things.
Im rather indifferent about the fan's reception of Dan Harmons lukewarm and well treaded tropes, and the ever so slightly amusing, purely functional writing. Such mediocrity, cant say I really feel either way about them.

Alright, to take a serious stab at it while running on 2 hours of sleep?
Some broad strokes:
>Get. The characters. Consistent. They've been inconsistent since season 2. Take this season to get them right. If this can't happen, don't bother with anyone who isn't Rick, Morty or a side character.
>Either way, more focus on R&M adventures. The family sideplots have been milked for all that they're worth; just enjoy the few droplets we get out of them
>Don't play it safe. Show's going to die if you do.
>Most importantly? Downgrade Rick and shift focus from him to Morty for a balance. Rick is not the protagonist: he is the deuteragonist along Morty. Any episode that forgets this is not worth its salt.
>On that note, no big focus on drama except for any between Rick and Morty. If they've nothing to be dramatic over, then don't
>Stop with the fucking references. Szechuan sauce was almost bearable for how obscure it was. But reddit, South Park, Minecraft etc? No, it's time to stop.
As for the five most recurring characters?
Beth:
>Leave in the background
>If she has to have ANY attention at all, why not bring up her freaking abandonment issues? S3E9 was fucking frustrating because it tried to have a Beth/Rick episode that avoided the elephant in the room
>She can get on Morty's back for underperforming and argue with Jerry about what to do with the kids bonus points for freshness if Jerry is right
>Or, y'know, not be caught up in anything.
Jerry:
>Either leave in the background utterly for the occasional yet-another-loser-dad-in-fiction joke
>Or
>Blow everyone's minds and have him mature for the better
>Build jokes where him being responsible and helpful is the punchline (without kicking him down, or else you kill the point of it)
>If we're going to focus on Beth's abandonment issues, then show Jerry as a trustworthy anchor who won't leave her
>Given how rushed the s3 conclusion was, the impetus for this change must be in s4
Summer:
>Only other family character to have relevance
>Have her in at most one adventure
>Stick to her archetype: she is a normal high school girl who only cares about normalfag shit. She. Is not. Morty 2.0. If she gets a moment that could easily go to Morty, scrap and rewrite.
Rick:
>Get him fucking consistent. Most inconsistent character and the show suffers for it
>Downgrade him. He is not a living god. He is not an enlightened redditor. He is a mad tech wizard with questionable motives. Don't buy into the myth about him like season 3 did.
>Either his tech has to be downgraded so he can't just science his way out of fucking all tension, or he himself has to be downgraded (i.e be more slow-witted, less resourceful, less agile.) Season 1 Rick was consistently excellent about this; season 3 Rick was consistently awful and bought into his own hype.
>Be willing to make him more of a dick or a fuck-up. Morty should be his one soft spot, and even then on occasion
>Also for consistency's sake, center him around hedonistic nihilism - or at least, a guy so battered that not even eldritch abominations can phase him.
>More experiments for his own gain (e.g Anatomy park), less aliens.
Morty:
>Has been the only real consistent character, though this has come at the expense of prevalence, which you can't afford for a deuteragonist.
>Just structure more episodes with him in mind. Again, season 1 was best with this. It had times where Morty was punished for his naivete, where he had a spine against Rick, he had his endearingly flawed moments but also his more profound ones ("Nothing exists on purpose, no one belongs anywhere, everyone's going to die, come watch TV").
>If Rick reverts to hedonistic nihilism for comfort, Morty should take the more mature view; nothing matters and that's good. Morty's growth is that nothing matters but he still gives a fuck.
Sample episode ideas if you need to do ANYTHING that isn't regular adventures, because the show has honestly been grand with pretty much every time it's done just those.
>Family finds out Morty has been flubbing even harder in school lately because he's been spending too much time with Rick. This defeats the pilot-established reason for them justifying the adventures, so it prompts more Morty-centric shit. Even if it's just stuff like s1e2 to get Morty an A in math.
>Beth and Jerry go on vacation for Beth's sake for a few episodes/the rest of the season. This lets Summer be the one grounded contrast to Rick & Morty.
If you NEED a continuity element?
>Some element like Phoenixperson or a new character gets their own episode. At the end, they're presumed dead by R&M, but in truth get abducted. In a later season, abductor is revealed to be Evil Morty. Just don't make it obvious at the time, no face reveals or playing For the Damaged - Coda

Since season one, R&M was adult swim's own attempt at "simpson-ize" one of their shows. Aqua Teen had a good run, but was ultimately too weird and underground to be properly mass produced. Same can be said about many other high-budget shows like Venture Bros., which was just very expensive and took too long have a new season.
R&M fits the bill perfectly. It was built from the ground up to look smart and interesting but not really, so that it doesn't alienate the big audiences, in addition to be cheap as hell to make and feature veteran voice actor who have a little nerd-cred to garner attention.
What I'm saying is: [as] found something that works, and they will use it forever, even after Harmon has a meltdown and committed to madhouse, or Justin leaves or stays under several contractual obligations for fear of litigation it will go on forever with new writers and maybe a new cast, and people won't even notice.

They actually did that a couple of times in the first season. You know, when Jerry was a character and not just a punching bag. The impression I get from his character in that first season is someone who's a perfectly capable, kind of old fashioned father and husband, who's left competely out of his depths around Rick's genius and all the sci-fi bullshit he drags into their lives. Remember how the original Jerry actually pulled his shit together as soon as Rick and Morty left their universe?

His character, pushed in the promo commercials and the original episodes, were of a father who is definitely feminine while his wife was masculine or at least more unhinged.
>>930384 made a lot of great points about what's wrong with the series and what should be done. Another thing that got immensely worse from the promos/early first season to later parts was the use of shock humor and the timing of all jokes. See, the thing about shock humor is that it's supposed to snap you out of your comfort zone with horrible shit going on in an otherwise quiet setting, but the humor doesn't come from the carnage itself or its glorification, but from the implication that yes, something horrible is happening and the punchline is just that. Not the act, but the fact that it's gonna happen. So for example, take the joke they made in S2 with those two testicle faced monsters who travel back in time and mistake (((Einstein))) for Rick. The whole "humor" of the joke isn't the fact they mistook him for Rick, it's that they beat up live. That's idiotic. You know how it would have worked much better? If the testicle monsters moved back in time exactly to the point in time Einstein was writing his mass-energy equivalence formula and announced their intentions to shake him up. Cut to black (or at best, let a few punches be heard). Boom, instantly the scene can be considered comedic. Instead they focus on how they beat down this poor old kike and how he Vill Mess Vith Time, which is not funny at all.
Also, on that point, they keep making every character an alien. That also is boring as hell.

Honestly, this pseudo-intellectual show was like nothing I've ever watched. It'a absolute trash that tries so incredibly hard it's endearing. Each episode shows that the directors and writers are creatively bankrupt and yet they continue. Its stellar how such a brain dead show could enjoy such longevity and fandom.
Stuttering, memes, gimmicks, inconsequential narratives and a loose interpretation of comedy don't make for a great show.
I thank god every day that I wasn't born with a small enough number of brain cells to enjoy this content without irony. It constantly challenges the viewer in its simplicity, idiocy and lack of a commitment to a vision. Not in any form of intellectual discourse as its fans seem to believe. It's marinated in cliche, fried in shlock and still tastes raw to any patrician.
If you enjoy this show I must respectfully ask you to reconsider your ability to subjectively assess anything. It's trash.

Absolutely, and I miss that Jerry. He got me to smile in the pilot, he cracked me up in the anatomy park and kronenberg episodes. Being fair, I honestly think they got some good mileage out of the Jerry they wanted in the first two seasons, but I think that well has been drained. The best way to take him would be the Jerry as you described. He doesn't need to do a crapton there, he doesn't need to be multidimensional, just that such a character is the perfect foil and grounding for what R&M should focus on being.
>>930723
Also all very true. One of the weakest things about season 3 was that it basically had no grounded moments. Many of the times it came close to this, it flubbed.
>Mad Max felt hard to take seriously when they wanted us to. We didn't see Morty/Summer taking their parents' divorce poorly; we were told they were as they rode the wave of a bizarre premise
>Pickle Rick somewhat had something in the therapy session, though was hamfisted and failed to integrate Rick himself
>Vindicators could have shown Morty's idealism, but the whole episode was handled so callously that it would have been a better surprise had the Vindicators been good guys all along. Episode should have been Rick being a grumpy cynic complaining while Morty tries to enjoy an adventure with heroes played mostly straight.
>The President episode was fucking trash because it painted the government as just as batshit loony as the rest of the show
Again, the detox and citadel episodes are the only two that did this right I think.
>Citadel episode established each different character in their daily routines before they got upended
>Detox episode had detoxed Morty enjoying life in a comparatively grounded way, giving it a big punch when toxic Rick & Morty showed up.
If nothing else, the family being one-dimensional and separate from the sci-fi helps ground them so we want more from the main two. All the more reason to let them be the supportive/outmatched contrast so the adventures can be anything the writers want.

Citadel Episode makes no sense though. Why would Ricks, who by all intents and purposes are all geniuses of their own universes, decide to stay with other Ricks to work jobs they shunned back on Earth? Obviously this may also be a jab at how a Rick, despite being super intelligent, is still just one of many, and as one of many he'll do the job that most fits him. But the reveal was so goddamn moronic as people could've figured it out without the need of the musical cue and the photo, while I still can't get over how retarded it is they put a Legend of Korra cameo among the shadow govt. Which again is also retarded because if the shadow govt existed before and even ordered around the Council, wouldn't they already be in the know of Evil Morty's enhancements? He never takes them off, even in the final reveal photo, so when they were curing him from the laser wound they surely must have figured out that something wasn't right with him.
But whatever, we're putting too much thought in something the writers themselves didn't care about.

the joke is shit if the punchline is shit, and the punchline isnt very good in this case

Bullshit. Not saying EVERY part of a joke must be a ton of yucks, but setup is also just as important.
Im not always the biggest fan of Oglaf (And mostly they are now shit), but I take this gag as a great example of how you could take a premise and build on it continuously as a gag.

I was thinking to myself that Xavier Renegade Angel is like Rick and Morty for people who hate Rick and Morty. But i also have said Rick and Morty is The Big Bang Theory for people who hate The Big Bang Theory. Does this make Xavier Renegade Angel The Big Bang Theory for people who hate people who hate The Big Bang Theory? But wouldn't that mean Xavier Renegade Angel is The Big Bang Theory due to double negatives? Assuming this theory is correct, The Big Bang Theory is like Xavier Renegade Angel but for people who hate Rick and Morty, thus making Rick and Morty like Rick and Morty for people who hate Rick and Morty.

That kind of Rambling is very much like the XRA show. As for what it is. I saw it before R&M and just found it very entertaining. But it very much is like a Nega R&M. It tends to be very rapid fire and dense, indirectly makes fun of itself and its subject matters, and not really trying to be to cool for anything.

HAw, even Ben Edlund never asked GIBE MONEYS PLOX to the Pez people.
He did regret making Pez a thing in the Tick, though. He said they refused to make a Tick Pez because they would only used characters that had been around 20 years, so they even turned down Ninja Turtles. Flash forward 20 years, I'm looking at Ninja Turtles Pez dispensers and the whole interview comes back to me. STILL NO TICK PEZ DISPENSER.

You could like it without needing /co/'s approval, but the fact that /co/ does not like it and can articulate exactly why it's a bad show makes you feel bad because you feel that's a reflection on yourself. You can enjoy the show, somehow, and still recognize that it's a fucking mess and totally overrated shit. You should probably just go watch something else, but life is full of compromises.

Rick & Morty have become something like the irreverent wandering comets of the pop culture multiverse, injecting that same disaffected millennial nihilism anywhere accessible via portal gun. What is only a formal heterogeneity of content - visually sumptuous settings, imaginative sci-fi plots, references to an infinite and infinitely bewildering multiverse - is compensated by a homogeneity in tone - Rick will berate, belittle, and shit on you with that same world-weary millennial "wisdom" no matter what universe he's in, and in fact a lot of the humor comes from Rick's mockery and subversion of the tropes of more conventional worlds. I think this represents not so much a crisis of creativity (the plots are a Frankenstein monster of sci-fi tropes, but one with a surprising amount of gristle), but a leveling of the spectacle into the only "condoned" orientation one is allowed to uphold: the frankly flat nihilism of the vaguely depressed, vaguely anxious millennial. Rick & Morty doesn't throw the doors open on an infinite, unlimited universe, it only subsumes the staggering potential of television's first "sandbox" under the the "privileged" perspective of the know-it-all omniscient spectator whose audience surrogate is Rick. You only need to watch Rick helping himself to Simpsons' kitchen during the crossover couch cag to get what I'm talking about: one era has ended, another has begun. Watching Rick try Duff beer and then top it off with his preferred brand of liquor illustrates this perfectly: the outmoded humor of the 90s is altogether too weak, we need something "stronger", what was only a twinge back then, easily remedied by the solidarity of familial love and bonding, has become a full-on chronic nihilism, a relentless consumption of worlds, an endless fascination with what Baudrillard called our "witnessing our disappearance". Underneath the jaded millennial humor, however, still beats a wounded heart. Can anything save us?
