There are also like five hundred people with picrew avatars in the replies saying it's the best episode of the show because in the end of it the psychiatrist lady explains the toxic fans that the epic scientist guy is a bad person. Incredibly baffling.
I only watched like two or three seasons of Richard and Mortimer, it was ok. But I actually do think you could make a good case for pickle Rick being the best episode just cause of how great and useful "funniest shit I've ever seen" meme is
note : I don't remember anything about the episode or really much about the show at all
The show in general is fine, its just like a less clever more raunchy Futurama basically.
Yeah I didn't dislike it really at all but I'm allergic to redditor
I've watched a couple of seasons of Futurama recently that show is so fucking funny
I really wish I could get into the post-cancellation seasons, the episodes I've seen just don't do it for me
maybe I watched futurama so many times Its not as fun for me anymore
Also how the show looks like it’s setting up the usual psychologly dunk shows do only for that to be reversed.
I think the show was okay. The standout best episode was the one with the alien brain parasites. Everything before and after was whatever.
i turned myself into a pickle, bruce im pickle hulk
Epic scientist grandpa turns himself into an epic pickle to avoid family therapy, therapist points out grandpa does this to avoid facing people he's harmed. Funniest shit I've ever seen
And the therapist is voiced by Susan Sarandon. Idk if that is supposed to mean anything, as in she's telling uncomfortable truths like when she didn't vote for Hillary, but she has good politics regardless.
It's still a better character than when she played a pedo (teacher that had seduced the writer that always wears a hat when he was a kid) in 30 rock.
The meme for one. For another is the episode the Rick Stan’s HATE the most because the therapist at the end completely dunks on him and anyone who has the kind of “I’m superior because I lack empathy” view
I remember during The preview clip that didn’t show her response they were all going “yes! Get her Rick! Psychology is bullshit” and then the confused angry “betrayl” after she bodies him with facts and logic.
Rick and Morty started as an edgy comedy with fun sci-fi premises. Pretty solid first season, massive fandom of redditors. "Pickle Rick" is an episode where it sorta jumped the shark. Get this, a scientist turns himself into a pickle...
I get what they were going for, but like probably most viewers, I feel like they didn't stick the landing and it ended up being ridiculous but not good.
did kinda leave a bad taste in my mouth cause she basically said being catcalled is worse than severe mental illness that hulk was dealing with?
like both are bad i dont know why we gotta wax poetic. feels kinda like a weird wine mom show tbh. also, they have this middle aged white lawyer lady and her theme song for the show is rap? the lyrics dont fit at all either like lmao. i also feel like theyre cowards for not making her super beefy.
otherwise the show seems a little self aware that its silly, which is appreciated and makes me enjoy it more.

The biggest problem with the show tbh, end the hulk double standard
Rick and Morty in a vacuum is a decently funny show for the first season or two, which pokes fun at common tropes. Then it ran out of tropes to riff on and just gets tired and recycles ideas, the characters flanderize, etc.
It’s the surrounding context and audience that has soured it, Dan Harmon’s cheesetouch and the most recent seasons being chuddy and unfunny.
I watched the first episode of she-hulk, I thought it was pretty good. CGI had some janky moments but was a lot better than moon knight. I am interested in the exploration of internet celebrity as a woman and a superhero, I think that's the direction it plans on going at least.
I just finished the first ep too. Pretty entertaining. Hulk's face seems off though. Feels like they reused some of Thanos's mesh.
Yeah, I noticed his face looked stiff. It could be from a thanos model, I didn't consider that. I was thinking they had weta's model from endgame but didn't have the time or the money to get the facial mocap quite right. Or they just handed it to another studio who just didn't have to tools to make it look as good as weta.
A story also broke recently that the writers for this show wanted to do a multiple episode arc with the criminal trial of some Z-tier marvel villain but they bailed when they realized none of them could write an interesting trial scene
Turns out it's an unpopular opinion on this site, but I liked it this way. Zany adventures of the supervillain grandpa and his awkward grandson was what made the show. All the attempts at 'deep' relationship drama and character study didn't land.
Yeah, a lot of the ideology and its implications are embarrassing, so it's something you ignore to enjoy the show. Thing is, once the same showrunners (who I'm being told are horrible brainwormed people) try using the show to figure their shit out, it becomes even more embarrassing and too big of a part to ignore.
To each his own, I guess. Than against it's been like ten years since I've seen the show. Maybe it didn't age well.
I watched it with guy friends in college a little but isnt like, every episode about that
Wait, about a guy turning into a pickle? Seriously though, the show sorta shifted focus more towards examining the characters in after the first season.
