Zaphod42 posted:Well, we can infer from context clues that there was. Why would he specify that there's one tall and one shorter person otherwise? Think about it. They specifically needed people to take their place. Vines. Plants don't have tentacles. Also, I barely remember there being a love interest and all she does is get in a egg and disappear into space. That was supposed to be a twist some how?

Festus The Fetus posted:What is your favorite episode? I'm genuinely curious since I thought "look whos purging now" and "morty's mind blowers" were really great episodes. My favorite is probably last weeks "tales from the citadel". S1: Lawnmower Dog S2: Big Trouble in Little Sanchez S3: Pickle Rick These are the episodes I just love and can watch forever and forever.

The Ricks Must Be Crazy will always be the best episode.

My takes, which are fact. Worst of the season is Vindicators, which was merely a good episode. Tales from the citadel is the best episode of the series, but god drat were mindblowers and rest and ricklaxation amazing. Season 3 looking to be the strongest season yet. Weakest episode of the series is Gazorpazorp, though the Rick and Summer plot was solid.

I didn't like Vindicators because of how stupidly mean spirited it was. It had some decent chuckles, but it felt like it was written by Garth Ennis.

So there were a lot of mind blowers. And maybe this is just the series playing fast and loose with continuity, but we are constantly getting glimpses of the idea that there are many many Rick and Morty adventures that we don’t get to see. Easily more than 365. Is Morty going to grow up over the course of the series? Will he still be a 14 year old boy in 5 seasons?

That's what I like best about it.

I like that Summer knows about Morty's mind-blowers and isn't bothered by it.

The leaps of logic from the Vindicators aren't perfect to they're just like villains and deserving of horrible deaths were a bit too far.

I enjoyed how mean-spirited Vindicators was. Also every Vindicator who died (except Croc-o-Bot) brought it on themselves.

Yeah, given the number of mind blowers Morty should be a few years older now, but they're fudging it because that's how cartoons do it. Maybe they'll lampshade it at some point.

I like the random mix of canon and total inconsistency. It makes the show fun! They can be super particular about a facet being real and then just forget that Rick was actually a clone that chest-burst out of toxic rick and it's fine.

Well also in infinite universes Morties and Ricks should be born at different times and be different ages, not all exactly the same age, but the real answer is "don't think about it"

Of every show ever created this seems like the easiest one to handwave away time and aging going weird.

Nail Rat posted:Well also in infinite universes Morties and Ricks should be born at different times and be different ages, not all exactly the same age, but the real answer is "don't think about it" That's irrelevant, do you think C-137 Rick collected mind blowers from other Mortys? Each of those Morties has their own Rick who probably has their own Mind Blowers. You gotta remember the way the scale works. Even if he did somehow steal another morty's mind blowers, I doubt he'd let his Morty see them in that case. It'd be too loving weird. Owlofcreamcheese posted:Of every show ever created this seems like the easiest one to handwave away time and aging going weird. They explicitly don't do time travel on this show, so as to not get too close to BTTF. Rick does not know how to do time travel. So there are limits. But that said, Rick could be injecting Morty with anti-aging serum or whatever. Or maybe its some kind of crazy relativity effect? I mean really by that everybody else should be older but who knows how rick's spaceship works, probably skips relativity. Zaphod42 fucked around with this message at 03:59 on Sep 20, 2017 |

Best episode is easily the first one with the Council, since it had Doofus Rick which is my favorite thing in the entire series. Doofus Rick is great.

The rest of the family could have had some bad days with Mr. Poopybutthole that were simply vastly outweighed by the good days. Also, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vKSb_79haK4 Not the best one, honestly. I suppose it's hard to do one of these based around an anthology format.

Why did the Citadel hate so much Rick so much more between the first episode with them (where he's cleared of charges after being framed by Evil Rick) to the second episode (season premiere where he destroys the citadel). The part about sending assassins to keep his knowledge from falling into the government's hands made sense but once he escaped wouldn't they have had no reason to want him dead anymore?

On the squirrel gag, I kind of hope that, since they likely can't influence people directly without them looking crazy or blowing their cover, the squirrels use a coalition formed by Eliza Thornberry and Dr Doolittle as extensions of their will. They would have offered Morty a seat on the NWO (of course "erasing" him if he refused) if he hadn't fled.
