New episode tonight. Looks like it's gonna be another meta commentary on the show and fanbase. Will it be good?
I liked Story Train but thought the second go-around felt heavy handed just because R&M didn't know what Canterbury Tales was or Dan Harmon wanted to flaunt his obsession with Joseph Campbell.
>>149294439 (OP)>meta commentary on the show and fanbaseFor Christ's sake, again?
>>149294439 (OP)>>149294521The more meta a show gets the worse it gets. The only way it can be saved is a 22 minute live-action video of Roiland jerking off while doing the voices.
>>149294535i mean for all we know the first 2 minutes could be meta commentary and the rest 18 minutes could be a beth and summer adventure
>>149294439 (OP)Rick and Morty fight the Warner Brothers today. Same IP holder so they can do that, and it's not even a parody, the company is run by meta cartoons and it's poisoning creativity so Rick has to kill them and then they make commentary on how bullshit it is that Rick got all this guaranteed showtime and essentially guaranteed syndication to just fluff about acting like assholes about their own world and Rick retorts by shooting Yakko in the fucking head.

>>149294447What about it?
>>149294552>22 minute live-action video of Roiland jerking off while doing the voicesYou mean Harry Belden and Ian Cardoni doing the voices while Harmon gives a picture-in-picture dissertation about his version of the Hero's Journey.
>>149294439 (OP)Season has been okay so far.
fan art for this show is fucking non existent nowadays
>pic NOT related
>>149294439 (OP)This has been the worst season so far so I doubt it.
>>149294653Boo, you're no fun. That's more realistic though. Frankly I'm surprised this show hasn't had a live-action segment yet (unless I'm forgetting something.)
>>149294439 (OP)Episode is called Ricker than Fiction, and they have a story that involves changing the canon of people to fit Rick and Morty's interests, while referencing Stranger than Fiction, a movie about a man who gets a narrator in his head about how he's going to die and it's a writer creating a tragic novel unwittingly all about the guy and how he's going to die.
So I guess the A plot is about Rick and Morty changing a formulaic story and the B is maybe the cast's hand at Interdimensional Cable Improv or Jerry as a representation of fans watching the inner workings play out on the show as an observer, so then Rick and Morty are the writers and we get a play of how Roiland was awful to work with and the characters trying to help Rick and Morty with their problems in return?
>>149294679There's a lot, but it's mainly fujo asian girls.
>>149294765>Frankly I'm surprised this show hasn't had a live-action segment yetThey did a live-action promo during the first or second season with Christopher Lloyd and some no-name actor.
Is Family Guy just a series of random things happening? First time watching it
>>149294784is it just rick x morty fanart?
>>149294858It's a series of random things happening that occasionally cuts away to loosely related sequential events.
Any of y'all watching The Gilded Age? That's how I pass the time until the episode gets uploaded.
So are they truly done with citadel stuff? I don’t even mind but I do miss following the adventures of Ricks and Mortys with way less plot armor.
Is anyone streaming or is there anywhere I can watch it live?
>>149294955Hopefully we get more episodes of Ricks and Morties in other dimensions since the Citadel is done
There's always Evil Morty, too
>>149294439 (OP)Where the stream at?
>>149295059>>149295074I've never shipped father/daughter incest and I don't ship Rick and Morty together please don't make me start, there's so little I won't stoop to and parental incest is one of my last remaining pillars of humanity
>>149295103It's not really incest if they're from different dimensions...
>>149295101>>149295005why don't you niggas use the catalog to look for previous threads
Why do they always play a rerun of the previous episode before playing the new one?

>>149295632Just the regular feeling I get from a new Rcik and Morty episode, which is that I am watching a close friend get much too drunk at a party and knowing that from their perspective everyone loves them, but knowing as a sober third person observer that the opposite is the truth.
>>149295610>>149295612>James Gunn featuring prominently in the openingDoes this have anything to do with his take on Superman dropping soon? I'm thinking this is transformers inspired, but the talk about ruining franchises and the timing of this is curious.

>>149295680>>149295698Yo if Superman flops the amount of memes this will generate might cause Gunn to loose his mind. He is either confident in his DC projects or fucking insane.

Getting really tired of this celebrity wank aspect
>>149294930How good is it? Does it have any gay obviously anachronistic shit?
Rick pissing on the TV because he didn’t know what to feel is the first genuine laugh I have had this season
Dude I love it when they get the real media figure to do the voices for mocking themselves it's just like in South Park.
Holy shit I wish I could sleep right now.
One or two chuckles so far. Let's see if it can pull it up in the second half.

Better or worse than the Space Beth episode? I think worse.

>Summer is an unhinged fanfic girlie
>>149296054Easily worse, at least loli Beths were funny in just how believably kid psycho they were even if the theme park B-plot kinda sucked. This episode had fucking nothing.
Let me guess, next weeks plot is that a different dimension Rick left his Jerry behind
>>149296093No, kid beth episode was the best of the season, the space beth and rick episode was the worst, but now I think this is.
>>149296103>kid beth episode was the best of the seasonYou only believe that because you're a lolifag
>>149296054the only reflexive-laugh gag this episode got from me was morty getting cut off while saying how it could be good to support women in their endeavors
I’m a little angry because last action hero but in an editable script is a great idea but the transformers thing was gay and lame and the celebrity cameo plotline was also.
>>149296115Name the better episode.
>>149296103I was saying the loli Beth episode was better, I forgot about the shitty Space Beth episode so I guess they're both equally meh.

Does Summer want to get raped by raptors specifically?
>>149296281They bought the rights back in January
So, is this shaping up to be the worst season of the entire show? We have 3 episodes left, could the season still recover?
>>149296300Oh dear, well I hope he got some raptor asshole at least, makes it less gay
That’s it, I’m writing a good Rick and Morty episode, with blackjack, and hookers.
>>149296369It’s starting to shape up that way. This season has mostly avoided the worst pitfalls of 3-7 but none of the highlights. It’s so mid it just comes out boring. At least the last three episodes are by the plot guys, maybe they’ll cook up something to care about.
>>149296256Admitting out loud you just finished writing pages and pages of raptor porn is autism territory
>>149296369It's just felt hollow so far. Its fascinating that the only thing that got anons talking was kid Beths. They really need to bring their A game and at least finish strong or this whole season will be forgettable.
>>149296369No, because there are still 3 episodes from last season that are significantly worse than anything from this season
>>149295989Pretty much all Hollywood directors/writers are on some kind of drugs when they make their movies but yeah Adderall is just one of the commonly used pills for stuff like that because it helps people stay up, alert, and focused especially college kids and programmers.
>>149296348She skipped monster guys and went straight to hardcore animal snuff rape
>>149296369Got some solid episodes with no real lows like most of the other seasons tend to have. It's hard to say it's the worst season when it doesn't actively have any bad episodes in my opinion.
>>149296300Women wrote komen fufu and otome kaijuu caramelize. Anything is possible

Getting close to calling it quits, I stuck around a while after everyone else turned on the show but it feels like all momentum has hit a brick wall.
>>149296540I got to say, watching the show now feels a lot like watching modern Simpsons or Family Guy; its become just another animated show that just happens to be on, you can turn your brain off entirely and miss nothing.

>>149296447can i have her number, Anonymous-dono?
Aaaand we finally have an S8 episode that isn't just 100% forgettable but is actually a piece of shit.
Figured it would just be a matter of time.
This feels like one of those meta teen titans go episodes
So let me get this straight:
They do a meta commentary on crappy big budget franchises ... by having a crappy episode about crappy big budget franchises.
They make fun of how Michael Bay-esque that Synder and Gunn have become ... and actually got them to voice themselves doing it? Like they got the two to agree to this and this was the best they could do?
And it was all so Harmon could jack off over his revolutionary story circle idea (read: have a beginning/middle/end) yet again?
Look, when they try to claim they realize how corny and out of touch and uncreative they can be, trust me, they fucking don't. Or they wouldn't willingly embarrass themselves like this.
And yeah, making movies and shows probably is very hard. But maybe we need to stop treating guys who had a good idea once or twice as if they're fucking geniuses, permanently deserving of a spot at the keys, whose eighth and ninth ideas are simply bad sex and bad pizza.
This is officially the worst episode in the franchise. Fuck.
>episode where rick isnt omnipotent and relies on jerry to save them
7/10 ep
I would seriously watch an entire season of Beth adventures before another one of these fart huffing meta story snoozefests.
>>149296511THERES NO AUDIO >:(
Some episodes feel like they're first drafts that they never went back and edited.
This episode felt like a story idea on a sticky note that they crapped out a script for in 40 minutes, and snickered at the irony of the script machine doing the same thing.
>>149297060Stop using windows media player you moron.
>>149296900You wouldn’t want it, she grew out of all that stuff and is normal now
>>149297044Let’s not go that far
>>149297070This is the writers strike season and the first one without Roiland so they probably half assed a bunch of it
>>149297074>just download more bloat bro
Imagine how different things would be if Harmon had sexually harassed a subordinate and Gunn had made a bunch of jokes about molestation and the Holocaust, and they actually had to face the consequences for their actions?
(The irony of the final joke of the episode being a rape joke.)
>>149296447Growing up there was a stretch of time where my sister was obsessed with the concept of being slowly fed through a wood chipper or any kind of material grinder. It was strange how passionate she was about it, then one day it just went away
>>149295750>Yo if Superman flopsI doubt it will happen.
>>149296582Well Nomadland is a really stupid movie about an old lady who buys a van and travels the country being old and looking for work. And of course Hollywood sucked its clit because it depicted poor people and was directed by an Asian woman. So I assume the parody will be just as terrible.
Morty Jr. is a god-awful character, so unless the B-plot involves Summer pigging out, like deviantArt tier pigging out, then it'll be shit too.
And then who the fucks know about the finale, but I'm pretty ready to call this season a wash at this point.
Sequel WIP
https://files.catbox.moe/wmg0ps.jpg
>>149296912The rest of season 8 has already been garbage
Why can’t Dan stop all these weird, dumb meta episodes about story structure? I thought we were done with these after the last story lord episode? I dunno why either of those had to exist.
>>149297125Projections keep going down
The social media embargo is later today so we'll see if that increases the sales
>>149296582I still don’t get why out of all the wacky one time characters to bring back, they are going with Morty Jr
>>149297181Beth seems like the type to want it to hurt as much as possible
>Jerry beat up James Gunn and saved the day
I clapped
>>149297301Well, he is Morty's youngest son.
I guess we'll have to find out their justification when the episode airs, now won't we?
>>149297207Because he really thinks he's cracked the code. The end where Gunn was talking about how they could actually change lives with this thing? That was Dan talking about himself.
Dan Harmon is like an eighth year English major who doesn't go on to graduate. Like if Van Wilder was in the Humanities department and spent all his time trying to teach his teachers instead of partying.
>>149297301I assume the episode revolves more around Morty’s fatherhood than Morty Jr specifically. Naruto will likely be involved too
>>149297323Might do a choking one in the future
>>149297075Even better, I get to drag her back down into degeneracy.
Tell me you'll give me her number and I'll give you my burner email
I really thought (for like, a moment,) that the were setting up some kind of omnipotence cartoon plot where Rick & Morty, and by extension Jerry, get to change the world however they want and then deal with the butterfly effect fallout. Like, Morty wants more sex & nudity i.e. where he's involved, and it causes jealousy and very real domestic violence among the team. Or they think it needs to have something deeper, dare I say, high concept, and the other characters question why anything matters or why they can't have such power.
And it would tie into the idea that fans don't always know what's best ... because most of the time they just want to do the same thing the execs do and cram in shit they like, treat it like their personal fan ficction, and not necessarily what's clever or has wide appeal.
Instead, it almost immediately became a generic "Rick & Morty are trapped in the movie and they have to get out and they have to play by the movie's rules" plot. Yeah, Rick got the goofy annoying toy seller character sent to prison but that's all they ran with the entire episode. And it ended up being the entirely predictable cliche where it started swearing once it had to shank its way out of prison.
>>149297181why do you draw on fucking toilet paper
>>149297451he's in prison anon, plz understand
>>149296129Yeah, this had the potential to be a really funny and creative episode and then it just wasn't. God, nu-Rick and Morty is just frustrating to watch.
This episode isn't very accurate. I'm a writer and adderall hasn't really helped my writing at all and now I use AI for pretty much everything (except writing)
Insider on the writing board
The guy who wrote this episode and numericons is a board plant fall guy chosen to lead up the celebrity voice episodes.
This is why he won't be fired.
>that post-credit scene
Jerry is so lucky, bros.
>>149295914I was actually just thinking how good his voice has been sounding this episode.
I don't get the screeching about the voices.
Do you guys actually go back and rewatch old episodes?
I've forgotten the nuance between the 2.5 years inbetween every season and it doesn't bother me whatsoever.
>>149297527if that were the case then he would've written the poopy butthole episode
there is no conspiracy, the simple truth is that rick and morty has multiple bad writers that rely on celebrity cameos that make their already bad episodes even worse
>>149295914The voice cracks and has a certain pause to it between words.
Rick's, on the other hands, is close to perfect. Sounds like the guy's enjoying himself.
>>149297590>Rely on celebrity cameoAre contracted to have celebrity cameos and holiday episodes.
This is the reality of it. The network demands those from any show that became a household name/staple.
The writers have to write around these constraints.
>>149297613even if that's true it's not much of a constraint
for god's sake, you can start with having them not play themselves
>>149297451Unless you use normal office paper as tolet paper, i don't know what to tell you
>>149297586>mild mentions of the voice sounding off>screechingThere are only a few mild critiques about it sounding odd in this thread, which has been true anyway since the change of voice actor. Hitting the vocals that Justin does is no easy task I'm sure, there are times where it doesn't sound right with the new guy.
>>149297632>you can start with having them not play themselvesCan't, they play themselves for marketing reasons
meta commentary can suck my dick
james gunn wasn't funny until they killed him
adderal joke was good
>>149297613Christmas episodes tend to be good lol
>>149296582Do you think they'll ever do lore episodes ever again
>>149297720I don't like any holiday episodes anymore because they almost always end up the same tropes even when it's whacky scifi but in a new coat job.
I'd be okay with this but the transition from the golden era of network TV to streaming means we now have 8 or 10 episodes seasons, and depending on the show anywhere from 2-4 holiday episodes a season.
That's anywhere from 20-40% of the season and you used to get two half seasons a year for around 24 episodes now you're waiting 1-2 years for the next 8-10 episodes and the holiday episodes really piss me off as hogging content.
>>149297747They're never about Christmas, it just happens to be Christmas in those episodes
>>149297758The Christmas ones certainly are better than their Thanksgiving ones
>>149297634I do, because my powerful dumps require sturdy cleanup
>>149297613Holiday episodes got shut down in the Easter episode. They ended all holidays
Can we all agree that it had the best post credits scene?
>>149297441Kudos for perfectly illustrating your own idea of fans not always knowing what's best.
>>149297441Rick and Morty fanfiction is better than Season 8
>>149296511Feel like Summer should have been in this instead of Jerry. meta-commentary on female writers on male dominate shows. Jerry was just there to lazily shit on.
>>149298161I like knowing that Summer probably fingerblasted to Raptor porn while the episode was going on
>>149297733NTA, but I honestly hope not. If this is the route they're going, burn it all down and just be an episodic comedy instead of poorly keeping up pretenses.
Not sure if the raptor porn is supposed to be a “haha teenage girl weird fanfiction” joke or a “Summer has been around Rick too long and is now into freaky deaky shit” joke.
>>149298161/co/ likes the female characters when the aren’t being cunts.
>>149298458>Unf~ C-Clever girl…
>>149298495It’s just supposed to be something ridiculous to feed into the movie machine to bully Jerry with
>>149298495Either way, its hot.
>>149296348Raptor with a horsecock…like that ancient 3d porn video from early 2000.
Thx for sfm n blender I can’t find it but I know it exists
>>149296348Raptors obviously had cloaca.
>>149296027>Barenaked LadiesThe band or actual naked chick's?
7 episodes into the season and only 1 episode didn't suck (last week's)
>>149296511thank you mega anon
>>149295983I saw it, too, but I'm not any more sure I didn't hallucinate the fakeout.
Can’t Summer just go to the Raptor dimension and experience Raptor cock for herself and get it out of her system?
>>149295566I expect anime adaptations to look prettier. Like that Simpsons thing. The R&M one looked as bad as the show does, but you have to read the subtitles and deal with japanese tropes
>>149295735At least his movies made a profit. Can't say the same for Hamada, or Gunn's. How much did Suicide Squad make? Ah, straight to streaming. Not confident enough in it to put it on theaters I see. Flash? Literally endorsed by Gunn? A massive flop.
And now what? Superman, okay makes sense, but then clayface? Who the hell looks forward to clayface?
>>149299080>morty! The log on my portal gun says it was used to go to the dimension where everyone is a raptor instead of human at 4:30am. What the hell morty?>ohhh Rick I don’t know anything about that I was just having a little Morty sleep at 4:30am>uhhh hey losers, what are you fighting about in here?>shut up summer get out of my roo->geez summer you have a kind of glow to you today>oh, could you tell? Just tried a little something new
>>149299136>as badNah, it looked worse. Not that R&M is a gold standard for its visuals, that’s just how bad the anime was. It’s like they intentionally made the whole thing ugly
this was the worst episode EVER
yes, it sucked even more than the numerons one
>>149298983The best episode was four weeks ago, anon.
>>149299080She has to get Rick to read her full list of specific criteria for porno raptors first. She doesn't want realistic ones, they were prissy and had cloacas.
>>149297060change your audio device, worked for me
>AI prompts mentioned in the episode
Take me back.
I knew they were bullshitting hard when they said Roiland hadn't been writing for years and it was a cover, but they couldn't have made it anymore obvious with this season...just typical corpo lies to try and protect the moneystream.
>you will never go back to 2013 where Rick and Summer beating up Satan to DMX is the height of comedy
>>149299192that was the shittiest citadel episode they've made yet
I didn't mind this episode. The part that specifically had a sci-fi element.
The part I disliked was Snyder and Gunn.
Now theres an article about this
>“They were good sports,” said “Rick and Morty” exec producer Scott Marder. “Both of those guys sort of implied that this is the show they watch when they have downtime. So they were thrilled to get to be a part of the world, and there was no pushback or bristling. If anything, they laughed at anything we threw at them. There were probably, frankly, even more digs and more silly things we could have used. All they did was laugh it off.”
“I’m excited for the fans to get this one,” Marder said. “I feel like they’re always hungry for classic ‘Rick and Morty’ episodes, ones that feel like a fun plug-and-play, episode-of-the-week. This one feels like it checks that box in a big way, but then has fun surprises.”
The idea of the Movie-lizer had been floating around the writers’ room for a while, Marder said. But initially it was the “Book-alizer,” and revolved around Jerry writing a novel. Then the idea pivoted to movies. “Maximum Velocitree” was dreamed up as a wink at the “Transformers” and “Fast and Furious” franchises.
“We were like, if we’re going to do a movie and we’re going skewer Hollywood, we feel like we have to include our bosses,” he said. “So we started thinking about Warner Bros. Who’d be a good face to be kind of the villain here? James Gunn just seemed like such a good choice. We were all pretty sure that whenever Schrab reached out Gunn he would be a million percent in the middle of doing ‘Superman.’ But he not only did he respond instantly with a yes, but I think he ran it up the chain at Warner Bros. that same day. We had people on our production side who were like, ‘How is it that James Gunn and Zaslav and all these people already know about this episode?’ We didn’t think it would actually move this quickly.”
>>149295989>>It's literally just meth packaged by (((Doctors)))
Yes it will make you more alert and productive and all that. It's fucking meth.

I don't get it, when I watch Rob Schrab in Harmontown he is the funniest fucker there, but the second he does a Rick and Morty episode it's horrible.
>>149294439 (OP)>Rick created a scriptwriting machine>Makes no comment on generative AI
>>149300090this was originally about books
>>149300090>Let's kill two birds with one prompt. *pushes up glassesWhere the hood at fr.
I laughed at the orange bottle being adderal even if i was able to call it wouldnt be a sci-fi thing and would be some normal mundane object
the barenaked ladies parody at the end was the funniest part
>>149296009>>149296018I don't care about you getting a celebrity to appear in the episode. A celebrity showing up isn't a joke itself. One time sure, it's funny because it's corny and stupid and random, but they've done "woah it's the actual celebrity" or "we namedropped this random guy" jokes so much that the "haha this is just like badly written celebrity cameos" joke isn't a joke anymore, it just IS a badly written celebrity cameo
We’ve had ONE good episode this season. S7 had a few good ones what happened?
This was the worst episode of the entire show. Everything is by the numbers, I fucking hate Gunn and Snyder showing up, two absolute idiots, there are plenty of things that don't make sense this episode and you can tell they are just there to tie the story, some aura draining shit.
Rick and Morty was once something of a subversion of the trope, now it has become the trope itself, it's tame. They are not mocking Transformers for a stupid premise anymore, they are living it, the writers seem to think we are idiots, the whole episode was a huge ad for the two buffoons and it will age terribly as well.
>>149300205western animated shows always turn to shit after around 8-10 seasons
>>149300219>Rick and Morty was once something of a subversion of the trope, now it has become the trope itselfSubversion of tropes is a trope
just like deadpools whole shit
Jerry getting raped was funny, but I think it’s odd how the same writing team that spent all season reassuring the female characters are totally badass and special would pull a joke like this. You are never gonna see an edgy joke like that for anyone but Jerry, and that’s hypocritical and biased.
>>149297586Morty sounds terrible and I can never unhear his inferior replacement. Rick is good most of the time, to the point that I can occasionally forget.
>>149300323Jerry is this shows Meg, expect the rest of the cast to become lesser megs if it hits 20 seasons like Family Guy
>>149300323It would have been funnier if Jerry was into it
>Summer wants to get Dino'ed
the only good part of the episode desu
>>149300090>Makes no comment on generative AIThey made several.
>>149298161I mean... sure, but it's not like there's much competition. I don't even remember the post-credit scenes from half the episodes this season.
>>149300323>Jerry getting raped was funny,Nah. I felt like that kinda crossed a line that can't really be uncrossed without serious handwaving. Not to sound like a prude, but now that sorta stuff will be hard to take seriously when the situation demands it if they decide to poke fun of it more than once after this. The only fix for this would be just to never bring up what happened there and try to keep rape as that unsaid taboo.
This is also Jerry's second time getting raped since he was a kid, if Ricksy Business is any indication.
>literally just a superman ad
1 > 2 > 3 > 4 > 5 > 6 > 7 > 8
>>149300278Yeah, I know. But it's the sort of thing that if it happens every once in a while, it's interesting, Rick and Morty buried themselves in their backward and went to watch tv, it's not a common plot point. Deadpool breaking the 4th wall in a comic, amongst all the other serious heroes. Ok, can work. But when it becomes A THING, it's ruined. Rick and Morty is looking like a Rick and Morty spinoff.
>>149300463this except swap 1 and 2
>>149299152>Snyder movies>Make a profitKek didn't batman v superman make under a billion
>>149296081Surprisingly good throwback joke.
>>149295739quiche and croissant
>>149300598His movies made a little money but nothing noteworthy. BvS in particular had an embarrassingly little amount of profit
>>149296582>Jerry episode next let's fucking go
Damn that shit was awful
>only skimmed it
>>149300598Gunnjeets can't read. Typical.
>>149301006Profits under Snyder, massive losses under everybody that came next.
I'd be curious to see what Blue Beetle and Flash made. And of course, Shazam 2. I remember the lead actor having a meltdown on social media over how poorly it performed.
>>149300463the crocodile eats the larger number anon
I liked the season finale of last season
>>149301304>Profits under SnyderBarely anything to make it worthwhile to keep him around.
What does a Beth smell like?
Jerry should've saved the day by just being a passionate cattle-fan of capeslop instead of taking le funny pills.
It'd have some sorta positive beat in the story of like, you don't have to be a nihilistic supergenius to write well.
>>149301940wine and horse cum
Rick and Morty are now whoring themselves out to promote Superman and tell fans to temper their expectations
What is the message even supposed to be?
>Fuck you, you couldn't write a rick and morty episode
Neither can you retard? What's the gotcha here?
>we have hit current events, capeslop edition
>defending hollywood
someone pull the plug on this show, its over.
>>149300090Doraemon did that 30 years ago
>>149301304>massive losses under everybody that came next.Because of how shitty the Snyder movies and Suicide Squad were.
Snyder's post DC movies have not been hits for a reason
I thought the plot was going to shift into the tree robots actually being real on another planet and the changes Rick was making were actually effecting them in real time
>>149298161No we can't, that was the worst one! The best one this season was Gene's phone
>>149302987Where is it defending Hollywood?
>>149303674>Snyder's post DC movies have not been hits for a reasonZSJL was, though. Weird that, huh?
The episode parodies shitty hollywood hero-slop, but the actual run time of the episode puts us into a poorly written version of that shitty hollywood hero-slop
>>149304792Jerry ended up liking it
Aww... poor Rick and Morty writers.
I agree, writing IS hard...
... which is why you shouldn't have mishandled the guy that was doing it for you :(
You remember, back when the show was popular :(
Back when it had gorillions of fans :(
Oopsie-whoopsie, you made a real fuckie-wuckie huh? :(
Bring him back you stupid fucks, before you run it into the ground for good. It's clear by now that anything good you do is an accident and almost everything you do SUCKS.
Quit trying and BRING. JUSTIN. BACK.
>>149296427>>149296447It's weird how common gore, rape and abuse is in fanfic girl writing. But they act like it's mostly guys, when most male fan fics are like a guy breeding something then wholesome wifey shit
>>149294439 (OP)This episode was ass I'm 5 minutes in and want to drop it
the site I use still doesn't have ep.7 up, the fuck
>>149305519They're doing you a favor.
rick and morty became zombie simpsons in record time. but its also higly selfcongratulatory and selfreferential. bleh.
>>149295745Exactly what I thought, so unlike R&M
>>149304792Raptor sex doesn’t count as rape because in the end you always enjoy it
How does Jerry consistently managed to be the likeable character? Its not even the whow dogging on him and making us pity. I think its that he is never truly defeated by it. Life is an effort and he'll stop(exerting it) when he dies.
Ahhh... another day, another R&M viewer waking up to the fact that Jerry is, and has always been, best boy.
>>149305781He is a simpleton that just enjoys things and doesn’t need others validation to do so. He liked the shitty movie and didn’t care that Rick and Morty didn’t. He likes the 2007 Kia Spectra because it got 3 stars. He is kinda like Hank Hill where the mundane pleases him and he doesn’t need more than that
>>149298450Jerry deserves all the shit he gets
>>149296303>https://mega.nz/folder/TGJRwabb#r86F4JdQw54UBpO_j2OPEAwtf is this
>>149305834i like the implication that he has some real competence in him as shown by every universe in which he's seperated from the family or doesn't get with a beth.
Beth's the only one going on about the potential greatness she lost out on bc of the kids but Jerry is actually the one who sacrified the most it turns out, and he doesn't mind.
Rick and Morty needs to have its budget slashed to 1/20 of what it is now to force the writers to actually come up with good plots instead of constantly writing in [huge impressive scene with 100k assets flying past in a second] in place of actual substance
>>149305933I like that when faced with adversity, he finds a solution. Not like Rick who just portals in a solution, Jerry will actually use his head and figure something out.
Or that how he seems to avoid most danger somehow. As we saw at the Jerryboree, it’s common for them to try to leave, but instead just wander around dangerous areas for awhile, get discouraged, and come back.
Damn so 2/8 episodes have been good, S8 on track to be borderline unwatchable
>>149306157*2/7, still though, if the last 3 are solid only half the season was good
>>149306157S8 has been generally mediocre but has yet to hit the abysmal lows of S7. We haven’t had anything worse than Jackman, Quato or numbers yet. We haven’t had anything that stands out as good either though
I’m coping that this season is so mid because of the writer’s strike.
>>149306239Yeah that's kind of my point, there's nothing outright dogshit, but there's nothing you'll want to go back and rewatch either
>numberOh god that shit was bad, the Ice-T thing was funny as a one off a joke, but is not funny enough for an entire episode. I don't mind the quato one, but can easily see why people would dislike it. Fwiw, S7 also has one of the best episodes in the entire series being the fear hole, so they've still got it somewhere in there
>>149306249Season 8 and a good part of Season 9 were written before the strike
They’ve worked so hard to avoid what people don’t like that they stopped themselves from doing the things people do like. And I’m not even a plotfag, I like the episodic stuff better, but everything is so middle of the road. Oddly lacking humor, just feels hollow.
>>149306249According to the staff, 8-10 were written together. So if this season sucks, so will the next two
Can’t get over Rutherford penning the best received episode this season
>>149306333I really feel like most of the jokes in the show weren’t in the scripts and Roiland just improv’d them.
>>149306333Just keep watching it because you have nothing better
>>149306456I have plenty better but I make room for it because I am still rooting for this show, before this season it never felt like the team phoned it in.
>>149306411Nah. As much as this board lionises Roliand, we've seen what his solo stuff is like - it's all pee pee poo poo ADHD jokes that only 6th graders would find funny for longer than maybe two episodes.
this episode was so bad.
It was not giant sperm bad but I fucking hate when a celebrity becomes the main focus of an episode.
>>149306547But... but Hugh Jackman! Haha! Get it? He's HUGH JACKMAN! Lmao
It's so funny I'm actually laughing off my ass off
HUGH. JACKMAN.
Rofl!
>>149306547everyone in the show is a celebrity
>>149306586I agree. that episode was really good. glad poopy butthole got to be in it too
>Summer writes raptor porn
Jerry has a bunch of standout moments even in the newer seeasons.
>Christmas lights
>Cookie fortune
>The cat that talks
off the top of my head.
Pluto will always remain such a sweet episode
This show is dead right?
The new episodes are the worst ever
Definitely a big drop in writing quality
>>149307049They’re not the worst ever, the lowpoint as a season is 5 and the worst individual episodes ever exist in season 7. Season 8 is very consistently mid. A strong finish could make this equivalent to season 6, if it continues the way it has it’ll be down with season 5. If next season is like this then you can say it’s dead.
>>149306973Jerry is the biggest success story of the modern writers. They turned him around from the buttmonkey to basically the modern show’s equivalent of early Morty.
>>149306973The show is called Rick and Morty yet Rick and Jerry feel like a more fun duo to follow
Morty just kinda feels boring
>>149307143Cause Morty is used to and numb to Rick's antics, Jerry is still impressionable
>>149307049>>149306273It's not *bad* just really really forgettable, almost everything so far feels like discarded episode ideas they're just using to clear up room
The only funny part of the whole ep was the after credits.
There's proshippers getting harassed by twitter antis, so i'm making sure to send any and all proshippers to /co/ and other threads where they'll be able to post rick x morty or Stewie x quagmire to their hearts content. Sorry if this place gets a little too liberal and far left, but I have a feeling proshippers from twitter will find 4chan as their new home.
>>149307283Ok, back to sharty
>>149307288These are twitter toddlers who think they're mature, so idk how well they'd fit in with sharty. I doubt any of em will go here, but more the merrier, yaknow?
So yeah, worst episode yet? We all agree, right?
>>149307344Nah, this isn’t as bad as How Poopy Got His Poop Back or Wet Kuat Amortican Summer.
>>149307344The worst one to me is the poopybutthole fake birthday because it's so forgettable. I've watched it last week and could not recall a single line.
>>149307283why would you even know this
Rise of the numericons genuinely feels like a waste of time.
Morty plapping Summer episode when
>>149307419Season 11, Episode 5.
wow what a shitty episode
le epic meta, kill yourself
I hope Naruto appears in the Morty Jr. episode.
>>149298495One of the writers is clearly a monster porn smut reader due to the rabbit ep/raptor porn reference.
A case of a write's barely concealed fetish.
>>149307468I hope Summer and Morty ask Rick to normalize their incest baby.
And then when they find out he can do it, Summer decides she wants to have another one with Morty.
But, the old fashioned way.
>>149307344S1-3 were all slop. Didn't start getting good till after that
>>149306547I fuckin hated that episode
>>149307468I'd be happy with a passing nod to that little freak.
>>149308004>S1-3 were all slop>only good after that>???the king of all contrarian takes, good bait
>>149294679I haven’t seen fan art for this show in years
>>149308038>littlelast I checked, there ain't anything little about that thing
>>149307049It's been dead.
>>149295227brother/brother for me
>>149296987Writers writing about writing because they went to school for writing and work as writers and don't do anything but write and consume media always always ALWAYS produces great results.
>>149308455>writers whose primary experiences to pull from are just writing and CONSOOMINGI think you have a point, writers need a certain amount of general life experience to inform their writing, otherwise it just ends up being pop culture regurgitation and self referential writing.
