i'm mr meeseeks look at me rick and morty thread

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."

shit on the floooor

"We could put it right back and pretend we never saw it, like we did with dad's mannequin leg."

Wait, did their animators actually try to unionize and got squashed from above?

Had to look up the nearly inaudible thing Rick said while watching 9/11: "They're gonna use this as an excuse to take away our freedom!"

Not the funniest episode, but probably the craziest one they've done

prob not lasting very long but

It was good. Hopefully they can keep it up.

Good ep. I now have high expectations for the next season.

the comments are worth reading

i also had no idea 1) this was a thing, 2) the whole show was created as a sophomoric mike and ike style back to the future satire, 3) so much teabagging

Excellent episode.

Trying to watch this from the very start but the pilot is such utter horseshit that I'm very tempted to not continue. Is there a DRASTIC improvement?

Yes. Drastic.

so much teabagging

it is almost as if they thought that the very idea of teabagging was hilarious in itself and its hilarity was inexhaustible, like some frigging eternal flame. they were wrong.

it gets better but i think a lot of charm was there from the beginning. (and it's actually the kind of thing i'd be surprised if imago liked it)

context: i think bojack horseman is fucking brilliant, i like some adult swim and uh idk i can't watch family guy, which this resembles (observation courtesy tt)

tried 3 eps (including Meeseeks) and yeah this isn't for me (tho nor is Bojack)

I would be surprised if u didn't like this show, lj

it's too vulgar for lj

You gotta get to at least the simulation episode.

it's so prog, though. also i seem to recall it starting out way more douchey in a Family Guy way, which it totally shakes off

Trying to watch this from the very start but the pilot is such utter horseshit that I'm very tempted to not continue.

Later episodes help establish their universe a lot better. Once I understood it, the pilot and every other episode became a lot more engaging.

Family Guy is unwatchable.

bojack is far more grounded and kind-hearted than rick and morty, tho rick and morty is more laugh out loud funny. Besides being two excellent animated shows, I don't really see many similarities between the two.

Bojack is devastating. imo R&M is slightly lighter subject matter.

Any similarities were mentioned here: http://www.avclub.com/article/bojack-horseman-rick-and-morty-and-art-cynical-sin-223245

I sort of think if you don't dig the pilot at least a bit you won't dig the rest of it. I thought the pilot was great.

the second episode had Scary Terry and robot dogs ("Where are my testicles, Summer?") so if you don't get on board there I don't know what to tell you.

I loathed the pilot. Couldn't get on board with the show until Mr Meeseeks.

I agree that meeseeks is where it takes off. the vocal tics take a lot of getting used to.
