Rick and Normie is a terrible show, written for a generation of developmentally knee capped hedonists.

in #rickandmorty7 years ago

In an effort to space out my day and break out of my, contrarian echo chamber, I've taken to hate watching one Rick and Morty, starting with this youtube compilation, which promised that this is the best of what our comedic brain trust known as Adult Swim has to offer. I understand this is supposed to be comedy, however, the twelve yearolds and permanent residents of some boomer's living room couch don't and try to pass this off as something more.


This is it, the magnum opus of modern comedy's Beethoven and
holy shit this show is unfunny garbage! I wanted to die after the first I saw skit, containing a wonderful bit of, "dad humor", wherein the wasted VA talent behind Cyril Figgis, threatens his daughter with joining Facebook . I mean wow, not only is the set up for nearly every character interaction consisted of two syllables and a guttural noise that when combined vaguely resemble bastardized English, not only does the writing and voice acting have about as much effort put into them as does your average teenage boy's rap dis-track or Mass Effect's character faceposing, we have to suffer through jokes about lame dads who embarrass their kids on social media. How many jokes do we have to make that revolve around the current zeitgeist of social status and e-fame. (please send all excess cash to the Pateron and Amazon Affiliate links below or I'll torch your leased BMW.) It's funny because you hate your dad or probably don't have one to begin with, which is why you're such an unbearable faggot who takes all of their social clues from a children's cartoons with edgy cuss words and references to sodomy. With this all being said, fanbase of this show must have the same level of emotional development as a 16 yearold girl.

Remember how I said I wanted to kill myself? Well The fact the I'm still writing might dash the hopes of those wishing I'd have already repainted my roof redsauce, I stumbled across this gem that makes whatever is going on seem so pointless, because there will always be, formulaic, all punchline, comedy's equivalence to prefab housing.


Now that we have established that there is little to no effort put into any aspect of this show, just imagine if we took at the voice actors (who are A-list Celebs mind you) at their worst to do an entire; teeth gritting, pillow biting, ass hurting , 10 minute long shit fuck they very generously called an extra when it should have been an out take forgotten about in the bottom of a volcano. Honestly, I don't give a shit if it's parody of a funny youtube video, the only reason you found this funny is because your favorite cartoon personality read a transcript line for line. After watching this, if I ever hear Rick even do so much as crack his fucking whiny voice again, I'll hop in front of a bus.

If you think I'm making a big deal about something that's just supposed to be comedy, then you are just admitting how everything, from the writing to the animation, is just bad and that this show is only funny because you (and 40 million other permanent child, drooly, tardlets ) also like; well established, nerd culture, SiFy blockbuster movies that this show borrows from, for nearly every premise for it's skits or scenarios. When the writing isn't busy trying to cut away to some alternate universe by using dumb plot devices like intergalactic cable, cutting away to a different scene to explain an observation made by a character (Family Guy has shown how this never gets tiresome) or referencing 90's fads. It's pandering to the teenybopper audience by using memes (again, Family Dad writers should jump off a bridge for doing this), but this is to be expected because this show is just all punchline, no set up or explanation, which is perfect for people that worship at the alter of; George Lucas's, fever dream, Never Ending Story for grown ups or people that regurgitate the same tired Dr. Who memes in a back and fourth with a trap they met on Tinder (I just want to nut and catch bugs Amy, stop talking about how if you had a Tardis you would go back in time to kill Donald Trump, nobody gives a shit about the political inclinations of Women or their impersonators, you are just a piece of meat to us.) I really don't think anyone should give any heed to those who defend the show on the grounds that it is somehow, deep, complex or for any other reason than them finding it funny. These people are probably such incredibly, one dimensional, narcissistic drone people, there really is no wonder why they watch the fucking thing to begin with.

Fuck this piece of shit show, it blows ass and I wish the animators would commit artist suicide by trying to depict the Prophet Muhammad (in other words, please 9/11 Adult Swim HQ). I'm too much of an antisocial shit bag, Archie Bunker caveman racist, to have friends and by extension be in on the jokes that don't revolve around being a wacky nod to science fiction or is a blatant meme! Should this break five views and I get a few comments that aren't calling me out for being a pretentious retard that actually analyzes comedy, I'll give my thoughts on an entire episode.

Thank you, I thought I'm the only one. This show is shit & way over-rated.
