I hate the Rick character because for all his venom towards everyone, he never gets his own comeuppance. None of his losses feel actually real so like in a game with little consequence he picks the asshole option and gets away with it.
A better written show would have him never escape even a cosmic humiliation since he cant get it from the rest of the cast.
If Rick is woman she'll definitely be one of the most hated character in fiction with 6-hour long rant videos lining up your youtube recommendation ever since you accidentally clicked on a slightly edgy meme video that one time.
I mean, the whole concept of the show is that they live in an infinite multiverse where there’s millions of different versions of themselves, so it is actually odd they’ve never done an episode where Rick and Morty meet gender swapped versions of themselves.
I’ll be the odd man out and admit I still enjoy a lot of the older episodes. I think they had a good concept that really let them go ham with goofy SciFi concepts. Problem is the writers refused to confront the shows Internal contradictions and so, much like capitalism, they accelerated till they fucked everything up.
Thing is it’s not paying off for them, even the cringe ass fans admit the last season sucked and Harmon alcoholism has probably ruined any chance for another one.
They like it because they think they are Rick and they're so fucking clueless that they don't get the not very subtle at all subtext about him. Rick is a fuckup who is absolutely miserable and in spite of what he says, it's not his intelligence that stops him functioning and developing interpersonal, genuine relationships with others. It's that he's a fundamentally selfish and lazy person.
It's Walter White all over again. Clueless pricks who can't get their heads around the concept that a protagonist may not be likeable or good. Same dumbfucks who probably wank off to STEM and ridicule the humanities subjects they so sorely need an education in.

just waiting on the big reveal that rick is ftm.
i have never seen the show, but that is now canon. deal with it nerds.
Rick is trans now
always has been
That would actually be an interesting reveal to end the show with.
It would probably result in nerds suicide bombing Cartoon Network HQ though so likely won’t happen.
Cartoon network is too coward to deal with what Gainax did at the end of NGE.

so... its an animated version of quantum leap but with less likeable characters? sounds lame
Kinda I guess.
