Rick and Morty
Rick and Morty is an adult animated science fiction comedy currently airing on Adult Swim. One part Back to the Future, one part Doctor Who, and one part Beavis & Butthead, the show is an interesting mix of the cute and the offensive, the childish and the adult ... it's pretty much like watching an R-rated, animated, modern re-imagining of Back to the Future. About a year ago, a friend of a friend recommended this show to me. About six months ago, our mutual friend recommended it to me too. About three months ago, the show crossed the inflection point and it seems the entire Internet can't shut up about how awesome Rick and Morty is. Well, the other night I decided to go ahead and finally check the show out. Watched Episodes 1 and 2 that night. Watched 3, 4, and 5 last night. Just finished 6 and it was so wow (at the very end, pre-credits) that I had to stop what I was doing and come make this thread posthaste. The show is definitely not suited to younger viewers. Substantial adult humor, both in degree and in frequency. But since 90% of UPN is adults anyway, it's okay!

How coincidental that just last week a housemate of mine showed this to me and a mutual friend. Sufficed to say, we enjoyed it greatly and were immediately hooked. Have seen all episodes thus far and I can personally say I enjoy some of the more twisted (or adult) humour that is involved.
I'd recommend it to anyone who'd enjoy an adult cartoon that's...uhm..I'm going to have to figure out how best to describe this to make it stand out from things such as Futurama or Family Guy.

It was okay I guess. I can't say much more without divulging spoilers. Will edit them in later in a spoiler though. I personally preferred season 2 towards 1 overall.
EDIT: Had to remove something that was potential spoilery

FUCKING HELL YEAH MY TIME TO FUCKIN' SHINE
Okay so Rick and FUCKIN MORTY WOW. Great show. Amazing, even. About 6 months ago I tried watching the first episode and I was so ehhh about it. Couldn't do it. Didn't like Rick's intermittent burping (despite it all being improvised) - just thought it was meh. But WOW was I fucking wrong. This show is genius. The humor is fantastic - I don't often find an animated comedy that actually makes me laugh, let alone one that makes me laugh this much. The writing is so damn good and the story is actually pretty great too. And the episodes that end with the "feels", my god. Yeah, you know what episodes I'm talking about. So great. So good. Wow. After S2E3 I had to sit back and just... take it in for a while and think about what just happened. Justin Roiland and Dan Harmon are fantastic. And "Rixty Minutes" is one of the best episodes of any comedy I've ever seen. I want to keep going on and on and gushing but my work break is over now so I'll have to continue later especially considering I want to talk about the S2 finale but HELL YEAH RICK AND MORTY

Just finished Season 1. (Eleven episodes.) It was good. Overall I'd say 8/10. Choice episodes are 9/10, and choice moments are 10/10.
Wish I had more to say. :\ It's a good show. It just ... also doesn't inspire me to discuss too much about it right now. Those of you who haven't seen what I've seen, I don't want to spoil. Those who have, what am I supposed to do? Regurgitate the plot at you? I guess a few things I can think of to say ... (Spoilers thru S1 finale) Spoiler: show

Just finished Season 2. To my surprise and delight, Rick and Morty never once had a bad episode. Every single one of its twenty-one episodes I would at least give a 6 out of 10 to. And the overwhelming majority I would give an 8 or a 9 to. Really great show. Now I get to play the Be Sad & Wait 1˝ Years Game along with everyone else.
(safe once thru S2E10) Spoiler: show

The episode Ricklantis Mixup is possibly one of their best episodes.

Agreed. Season 3 has been pretty mixed so far but goddamn does Roiland show his vocal depth and range in it and it's genuinely interesting to see the society on the Citadel.
And of course, that ending reveal... Spoiler: show |

Pickle Rick will forever be my favourite, I doubt they will ever make an episode I like more. I had like no hope for it at the start of the episode but then it was suddenly blew me away which is what made it so great.

Morty is Rick's best friend and sidekick. He is always ready to help Rick out with any problem he may encounter. Morty is a typical teenager who loves video games, anime, and girls.

I haven't watched this but the two scientist guys cameo'd on Half in the Bag and I didn't recognize them at first. I thought they were simply sci-fi dudes. Later I learned they were Rick and Morty.
