There's some good moments to it, but you really have to walk into it realizing that they are fully intending to take the piss out of everything, and that all the characters are shitty people that believe in nothing in a universe where nothing matters and they can't really ever lose anything.
That particular bit was a rant at the end of a complete nonsense episode that included a fake advertisement and website that went nowhere - which was even more of a shot at these weird bootlicking fans who created the who mcdonalds sauce meltdown - but the show doesn't usually have such a good take on making fun of capitalists.
It's kinda like Always Sunny in that you should not be identifying with these characters because they are supposed to be a comedic level of awful. It's pretty great to get drunk or high and throw on with a few friends so you can all laugh at the genuinely funny bits and make fun of the dumb bits. It's not a show to get invested in, for many reasons, but the "community" is the biggest one.
Look I know Rick and Morty get a bad rap and for good reason, but there are not many shows so attuned to my weird humor wavelength that they do 10 minutes snake scenes with no dialogue but "sssss".
Oh totally. Hard agree, snake episode was absolutely top tier, on par with the slut dragon episode and the alternate pilot episode of archer where he's just a raptor. The weird humor is the draw and it's why its enjoyable, it's not a bad show, it's just something you need to acknowledge as "just a show" before you invest yourself in it.
It's... not bad. There are some genuinely funny bits in it and it's entertaining enough. There are probably more good or decent episodes than shit ones. The fanbase is fucking terrible though.
Damn that show sounds nice. Never watched it cuz idk.

Woah this is the best review of Rick and Morty ever
This review has been presented to you by ADD and forgetting to just go the fuck to sleep, sponsored by caffeine at weird hours.

Also worth mentioning that the showrunner is not a fan of their fans, which is good
I don't think the fans are fans of the fans. It's probably why they're so desprate to be the magic science wizard.
There are a lot of people who like Rick and Morty. There are a few people who REALLY like Rick and Morty.
The former tends to be put off by the latter
