I remember first watching this show and loving it. Story, jokes, setting, characters all hit right. Over time I've come to gradually like R&M less and less. I think it's a show that came into existence at the right place and right time but has overstayed its welcome.

same, i stopped after S3
I stopped watching after S2 mostly because I didn't have access but I'm glad I did because it's solidified in my mind as an amazing show and hasn't been ruined yet. I will continue to believe that. Maybe years down the road I'll watch it with my future crotch goblin
[off topic]
The Venture Brothers is a much funnier show. Watch that.
are these them?
These are they
Brock and helper arguing about the dumbest shit is also so funny every time. Such an epic show.
Brock alone could have carried three seasons.
Pretty much any character's normal day would make a great show.
I still remember the uhh yard sale episode from time to time and giggle
I'm surprised there are 11 seasons
It'll end up like Family Guy. 20 seasons, people only watched 6.
i loved rick and morty but lost interest after waiting so many years between early seasons
I enjoyed it but, much like Doctor Who, a very loud minority of the people who watch it are insufferable. They sucked the joy out of it for me.
There are only 7 seasons released rn, and they're currently working on season 8
Over here in NL I've only ever seen like 5 or 6 seasons, I had no idea there were that many already. Are the later seasons any good?
Currently only 7 seasons are out.
They loose a bit in coherence but there are still great episodes, in my opinion.
I was in Newfoundland months ago and they had only two seasons. Now you're telling me they're up to 6???
As if we haven't had enough
This series has been with us since 2013. It has begun to feel almost anachronistic.
Was it ever good?
By any objective measure it has been highly successful. Its fans do rather detract from its shine though, many have felt.
As with many things, the community makes it worse
No.
Thank you for honesty
its a good show, but im afraid it might have died along with justin
Justin didn't die, he just chatted with minors using his Morty voice.
I definitely like earlier seasons more but I’m glad he's gone. I like the new variety of voices instead of every side character sounding like Morty doing an impression of someone else.
That's what turned me off, aside from cynical humor feeling overly forced.
S7 was the best one yet IMO
12 seasons??? I can't remember an episode past s3.
tbh i didn't know the show even had 5 seasons
I want to like Rick and Morty, but I just feel like every season is a blocker on Dan Harmon writing the fucking Community movie we've all been waiting for for over a decade.
I feel like the last few season got dragged on. It got very weird and uncohesive
Awesome. This show is a reservoir of good ideas, I'm seldom let down by an episode
Same, I don't get the hate in all the comments. Maybe it's misdirected feelings from the fallout of JR or hyper-analyzation, I don't get it.
This show had zero hate until the fallout and somehow it’s just not good enough for msm. People are hyper sensitive over anything these days.
I thought this show was always running outside the guidelines of modern fragility but I guess it flew too close to the sun.
