I believe The Ricklantis Mixup really should've been the last episode of this season. It was undoubtedly the strongest one in terms of actual story. The rest (S03E01 excluded) just feel like 15 minutes of filler around a 5 minute joke or plotline. They were enjoyable for me, but I can see why someone wouldn't like this season.
- gggdvnkhmbgjvbn 9y agoI just commented here about how that episode may have gone too far in terms of fan service: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15435761 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15435761 I liked the episode too. But the show now has an identity crisis: the fans (you and me) want to see the serious side explored, but it's honestly a bit pretentious and definitely less funny.
- cyphar 9y agoI definitely agree that Rick and Morty is a victim of it's own fan base. A similar thing happened to Mr Robot in S02, where it felt the entire season was just intentionally trying to mess with the audience with no real payoff (because the "big twist" in S01 was what people praised it for, even though it was basically just Fight Club 2.0).
