so we're only three episodes in, but this show is kind of consistently good now somehow. They dropped the Family Guy style cultural dada and are focusing on two or three clever ideas per ep and then engaging in adventure time style world building / character development. Hope they stay the course.

Yeah first three eps have been great, and the first episode might be my favorite thing they've done so far. The show's way better when it sticks to crazy ideas instead of pop culture refs. Futurama's the same way. They also need to cut back on the sentimental moments, they always feel thrown in and unearned. That's one thing Futurama did way better.

watched the mr meeseeks episode last night and now i'm completely 100% sold.

episode 4 of season 2 probably my favourite episode to date
watched it for the third time this morning

New season has hit it out the park every episode.I don't find the emotional/sentimental bits unearned at all; character is v much at the heart of this show, it's never just wacky adventures in space (tho it's that as well)

watched the infinite probability television ep yesterday... man!

be sure to watch "total rickall" too

Total Rickall was one of my favorites. fucking great concept.

Mr Poopybutthole's fate was sincerely heartbreaking.

that sentence was hard to type.

on the one hand i felt the giant heads host a reality show music contest... and the fate of the world is at stake! conceit was stale but on the other i must shamefully admit that i kinda like "get shwifty"

wanna underline SHAMEFULLY btw

after my effusive praise upthread, shwifty felt like a comedown. its one of the weakest episodes of this or last season. I don't believe Rick would care too much about saving the world, morty's story didn't really add anything and the organised religion satire was route one of a kind that this show doesn't usually sink to. i wouldn't mind all this if the episode made me laugh but it missed that goal as well for me. it all felt a bit community s6. after 4 episodes of unadulterated joy they're due a coaster i suppose.

otoh, the song's a jam

i like this show but i rarely find it funny

I will never not laugh at the "Summer, where are my testicles" scene.

the one where they're just watching random TV tapped into something preternaturally funny for me. I could just watch that forever.

"Get Schwifty" and "Raise the Posterior" were in the adventure game.

Didn't feel the last episode. I read the story "Microcosmic God" last year (also the inspiration of that Simpsons episode and that South Park episode). I think its ending hinted at recursively small worlds as well. It also has a creator who intentionally wiped out major portions of the micro population to have them evolve -- far darker than having them exercise to run a car battery. The show's B-plot was T2 kneecap shooting taken to a comedic extreme and I liked it.

I really liked this one.

For real? Nobody's going to talk about this week's special surprise guest star?

it was a nice touch

I should really be tired of [redacted] making voice cameos and milking his shtick but I'm really not

he did it in penguins of madagascar too (first 5 minutes for the curious)

it was the perfect voice for that little speech.

anyway this episode was weak. nothing as inspired as the door commercial that keeps on going from the first infinite tv.

the episodes focused on dick jokes and non-sequiturs are nowhere near as good as the ones that are myth building based

"Glip Glop?” You're lucky a Traflorkian doesn't hear you say that."

I thought both TV eps were kind of weak but I did appreciate the alien How It's Made. nailed the voiceover style and the background music so perfectly

(in the 1st one I liked the extended fake doors ad, and the ~emotional twist~ was strangely affecting the first time, but it didn't stand up to a 2nd viewing. also I always appreciate a moment of Belly nostalgia obv)

I love the alien names in this show. Shrimpy Pibbles, St. Gloopy Noops hospital, Andy Daly's character a while back being called Krombopulos Michael...just all of it.

Shrimpy Pibbles: Fruity Pebbles
Gloopy Noops: Froot Loops

wonderful season straight through and brilliant finale. can't wait for season 3.

i love how the cob planet was intolerable.

Rick's speech note -- "(trail off) (crumple up note) (ad-lib)" -- killed me.

a few clunkers (please no more non sequitur alien tv episodes) but otherwise, really a solid season.

fwiw i thought the second infinite tv episode was much funnier the second time i saw it. i guess i just rlly like throwaway jokes. anyway is season 3 really a year and a half away like they said at the end of the show?

for those of you going through withdrawal, i'm here to say that the Rick and Morty comic is aces and worth trying.

rick and morty is funny but all those baby words they use for everything are not funny

I don't even watch this show really but this is pretty amazing

Lol okay, that is great

"You can't smile in court, that's a violation" gets me every time for some reason. more than the cock references.

season 2 blu-ray is completely worth it for the plumbus instruction manual alone

I got about 2 minutes into that video before I realized what they were doing. That's awesome.

I binge watched season 2 a couple of weeks ago on Hulu and it was absolutely amazing. I keep telling my wife about it even though she very clearly does not GAF. "Total Rickall" and the Tiny Rick episode were better than pretty much anything else on television.

The writing on Season 2 is so, so good.

And the universe is already so well realised.

thought this would be an update about a new season :-(

"Get Schwifty was a jam."
