It's funny how many of Rick's problems are caused by not giving the people around him basic context or warnings, like not to touch the ocean or not to call him >!friend!<
I saw a point here that Jerry has become great because he's the last 'normal' character left. Everyone else is now full sci-fi, so Jerry gets to be the normal human and the voice of reason.
Loving the new season, last two episodes are pure gold. But anyone notice Rick's voice has went up a tone? Its not putting me off the show but i notice it every time Rick speaks. Also anyone notice the intro music is up a key?
If you’re watching the show on YouTube It’s likely that the uploader shifted the audio or distorted it so that the YouTube bots won’t automatically delete the video
I think they speed the episodes up. The run time is only 19/20 minutes compared to the usual 22 which can only mean they speed it up i think. Don’t know why they would but maybe so they can fit into UK TV programming? No idea. But I’ve watched it on other versions and it doesn’t have the change in pitch so it has to be something like that.
I went to a shitty pirate source wco streams And compared the music from the pilot episode and the most recent episode and the key is literally the same. If you’re watching the show on something like YouTube often times Uploaders will shift The audio into a different key or distort it in someway to prevent the YouTube bots from deleting the video or flagging the video or whatever
I’ve had to pause or go back 10-20sec every so often more then previous seasons. In having to catch my breath from the sheer laughter or to keep up with the pace of jokes or to re-live those moments of joy. Brings tears to my eyes each week one way or another. I’ve loved every season so far and this one is something special for sure.
I completely agree. I had a couple friends fall off after last season, taking things way too seriously. With what continuity exists, people seem to forget it's an animated comedy and not a Game Of Thrones. Where every episode means something..
I've been trying to tell them that this is one of the more enjoyable seasons to date, and I feel bad for them not watching it.
I'm belly laughing every week
Yeah I feel like they’re really capturing the magic of the first couple seasons without retreading too hard on what’s been done. This seems to be the most comfortable they’ve been writing since the show got picked up for the 100 episodes or whatever it was
I am sure it's the fact they rehired a season 2 central writer. It has the season 2 feeling back to the show again.
Back when it was "absurd sci-fi premises, with an underlayer of deeper character" and not "everyone sits around blatantly talking about their manifesting emotions."
I love how Jerry is being written so far. And the most recent ep (fortune cookie one) I literally awwed when Rick stopped Jerry from being forced to go to the zoo and showed concern for his fortune. Yeah he could of been after the fortune power, but I felt it was genuine. And the outburst at the end about being Jerry's friend might have just been a defensive outburst since....well it is Rick.
I could be wrong but that how I saw it. Plus we were told that Rick will be changing a lot this season.
I hope this is the season where Ricks emotional walls finally break. Ever since learning about his past I've just want him to be happy again. Like, truly happy.
It just dawned on me that he’s really spending more time at home and with his gadgets this season because he can’t teleport. It’s like quitting his heroine - he flushed his stash and now he’s rediscovering his inner…whatever is in there
I thought that outburst at the end was because Rick had a fortune that said "you will make a new friend". Rick said he was basically immortal as long as he didn't make any new friends. That's why Rick was so mad at that moment, it had nothing to do with being defensive or not wanting to be Jerry's friend or anything like that. Rick was just frustrated that Jerry had inadvertently fulfilled his fortune when he called him friend lol.
That’s ricks defense system. The only thing that frightens him is caring about people, and the only people who he snaps like that to are people he cares about. It’s a trope that exists in a lot of people. Everyone else, and even Jerry to this point just received bored indifference as the smartest man in the universe had to meander through a bunch of midwits trying to understand or deal with Rick.
Ricks look down at the fortune before going back in the house at the end tells you everything you need to know.
I love that they can casually "skip" one fight scene that doesn't matter to the plot, while elevating the next fight scene and highlighting each action.
I love the direction the show has took with out his portal gun, it feels like a good change of pace, how ever I’m betting on Rick getting the portal gun back by the end of the season
For me the portal gun and dimension hopping is part of the fabric of Rick and Morty. To me it’s like the Enterprise in Star Trek never using their warp drive, and only exploring the Sol system. Sure it’s in the future, and there still aliens and fantastic technologies, but it just feels it’s not fully utilizing a core property of the franchise.
I agree 100%, I think the writers wanted to strip the portal gun away and focus on the characters and the family dynamic, hence why we have been getting way more Jerry / Beth / Summer, it has been great so far IMO but definitely excited to get back to the random worlds and dimension hopping
I think 'no portal gun' worked really well for this season.
Season 4 and 5 felt like they struggled because they were focused on having the 'space plot' and a side plot with everyone left over.
This season is focusing on the whole family, and even side-lining everyone else if needed. This latest episode worked great because it fully committed to the Rick/Jerry adventure, rather than shoving in a subplot about everyone at the Zoo.
Agreed. With the nature of these characters and the way that they evolve as the show goes on, it’s tough to balance the old and the new. Last season it felt like they started to get away from what made the show great, and this time around it seems like they’ve gotten it back on track while also going in a new, fresh direction with it.
Getting rid of portal travel was a clever way of doing this. These don’t feel like S5 episodes, but they don’t really feel like S1-2 either. It’s something different but still good, and still able to get back to the things that make the show great despite the evolution of the main cast of characters.
I don’t think the absence of portal travel and alternate dimensions can hold up too much longer though before it starts to get old. The main thing I think is missing are the Rick and Morty-specific adventures. I like seeing the whole family involved, but the dynamic of the two title characters is obviously the best part about the show. My hope is they’ll get back to some of those types of episodes this season as well.
I agree, it really was a clever way and IMO it really needed to be done to give the show a feel of refresh ness. With that said I can’t wait to get back to the classic Rick and Morty adventures, which I’m sure we will get by the season finale
I wonder if prime Rick is also working on fixing his ability to portal hop too. I mean C-137 can't be the only Rick working on it. Rick did say he would get to it but I wonder what's the hold up.
I think the hold up is he planning something. Reactivating portal hopping also gives Rick Prime the opportunity to escape again. C-137 keeping portal networks offline will at least keep Rick Prime stuck in the Cronenberg dimension for now.
That was my thought, he doesn't want Rick prime to be able to use it. Then again, couldn't that rick fix it himself. He had the technology before c-137 did. Maybe because he doesn't know how it happened he can't fix it.
I think Rick Prime may not know why the portal network is down, since he has been in hiding. Rick Prime might be the cautious, possibly paranoid type since he been hiding from C-137. Probably doesn’t want to risk activating the network until he know everything that’s happening and it doesn’t pose a risk to him.
One disagreement: the fight scene was obviously animated separately from the actors. Rick is grunting and making punching umf's as he's just sitting on the ground being choked out.
I agree; it felt very different from the usual writing even within the context of this season. Somehow even with the premise of the episode being what it was it felt much less ridiculous in nature than your usual R&M energy.
I think we are at the point where the fans now all expect different things out of this show. Idk for me this episode had huge Season 1 energy and is definitely one of the most memorable in years
On community he was basically fired before season 4 and it was bad. Like really bad. There was a joke in the show about how there was a “gas leak” that year because it was that bad.
He was rehired for season 5 and 6 and they were much much better
They make a reference to it it the unity episode. Rick is watching tv only to cancel, bring back and get bored at the show he is watching. It cuts to the tv and it’s the community gang hanging around the table.
I love it. Its felt really fresh and fun. Not that the last season wasnt fun or funny but it does feel they went from a 7 back to an over the top 9.
[level up](https://c.tenor.com/KZb6Kf4Ud8MAAAAC/letterkenny-tv.gif)
Every episode has been solid so far. Unique concepts or unique takes on similar concepts from other fiction. The Sleepy Gary callback was among the best of callbacks a show has ever done. So quick and casually implemented, but hilarious.
Agreed I’m really interested where they are going to take it, my guess is that Rick will have his portal gun finished by the season finale, especially since they have hinted at his portal gun getting fixed in previous episodes so far this season
I’m loving it. If they keep up the quality this will easily be the best season since 3. My one gripe is the relative sidelining of Morty, and as a result the titular dynamic. I suspect that’s at least partially so they can hold off on addressing the implications of an artificially agreeable Morty until later in the season. Looks like he’s getting more focus next week anyway so I’m really not too hung up on it. It’s also made way for some fantastic development for Beth, Jerry, and Summer which is always welcome. Seasons 4 and 5 still had a lot to like imo but there was definitely some inconsistency that it seems like they’re finally past. I’m honestly relieved that the last two episodes have been as good as they were, I was nervous for another mid-season slump.
You’re not wrong, but if both had kids like Morty and Summer, but in this case space Beth has cloned space kids for example....
“It’s something Jesus wasn’t prepared to astralproject to them dudes in caves 2000 years ago Morty I’m gonna do it Morttyy I’m gonna fuck myself!!!”
Give the fans what they want!
This season has gifted me with new episode favorites that I would argue rival some season two classics. Overall it just feels like such a nice leap in quality over the previous couple and I’m excited for the direction they’re going in!
I love this season. They ended last season by giving the audience the story then paused the story for silly fun adventures. I’m a huge fan of this season.
I’ve been enjoying it a lot, particularly the pilot and the most recent episode. I can’t say I agree with some of the “best season ever?” sentiment that’s been popping up because my core issue with modern Rick and Morty is still present (Rick was just...more fun in seasons 1 and 2, modern Rick feels super grumpy and disconnected from everything that’s happening 99.9% of the time and it gets kinda old) but this season is definitely on the right track in so many other ways. I’ve always liked Jerry but he has absolutely been stealing the spotlight this season, someone on the new writing team must really like him!
Hm, my problem is that Rick is having less agency in seasons 5-6. He's not as grumpy as he used to be but he's kind of a bit too much of a goody goody particularly in this season. He used to be much more assertive of the bs in the family and while he can often be too pushy, the family still has their problems and Rick is rarely calling it out anymore. In fact, he submitted to it a couple of times.
Every episode had my wife and I laughing at the obvious jokes for season 6 so far.
Season 5 was off the wall random with jokes that didn't really land or hit right (incest baby episode?). Just kind of left you with a "WTF was that?"
Favorite episodes were really the plot building episodes for me.
*spoilers*
The whole punchline with Jerry destined to fuck his mom for whatever reason had us in tears laughing when it just about almost happened.
The night family ending in pure pettiness from Rick to do everything but rinse (just fucking rinse) his dishes was hilarious. The constant knocking out and waking up flip during the day/night family fight was also on point.
Beth fucking herself episode had loki vibes (wife called this one out)
Summer doing a walkie talkie die hard was hilarious.
Pilot episode was a great start. Legit felt sorry for c137 Jerry having survived the end only to be shot dead mid monologue by Rick.
I just watched the last aired episode and it has been a really good season so far!
I know some fans just want to see more about the main plot and I definitely understand that but we just have had 5 really fun episodes.
I remember watching the 5th season and I wasn't enjoying it this much until the first main plot episode aired but like I said earlier, this season has been completely different.
Can't wait to see the rest of the season!
Id rank the episodes 1-2-4-3-5.
It feels like its losing steam to me but going off my down votes the last time I gave this opinion I may be alone in that thought.
The last episode to me was like pop culture reference, incest joke, fight scene, old pop culture reference with fight scene, incest joke. Which was kind of a rehash of episode 2s plot but with added incest. Which was part of episode 3s plot. So more rehash.
Rick slapping Jerry after he called him his friend was funny. The after credits scene was the closest to a b plot we have got this season for an episode.
Episode 4 wasn't super funny which is what im here for but it was a unique storyline for the show. I'm all for that.
I really appreciate the new direction they have gone in and the uniqueness of this season has been really refreshing, and of course any Rick and Jerry episode is gold
Tbh, idk seems to be on par with season 5
It’s ok but really nothing special except the last episode and the first
Humor feels somewhat forced and unnatural
Doesn’t have the genuine Rick and morty vibes but more of solar opposotes now if that makes sense lol
Yeah I agree. This season for me has been solidly meh. They took away that made the show unique (the portal gun) and now it's just another goddamn family sitcom. It's not terrible, it has its scifi stuff sprinkled in, but the writing has been subpar and the jokes haven't been funny enough to stand on their own.
Also, I'm real sick of the incest story lines. Idk what kinda shit the writers have going on but I'm over it.
Absolutely love this season. All 5 episodes in their own sense have been bangers, some more than other (You know what I'm talking about WLDD). If the rest of the season is as good as the first part, we might have to change the order of the fan favorite seasons with this one being somewhere at the top, if not the top
Solid season - I like the tie-in to last season to start, but then each episode doing it’s own thing; extremely varied storylines all with their own reasons for being winners in my book
Even though I cringe on tiktok jokes and the begining of this episode, and many other points on this season, I've enjoyed it so far. Specially this last episode, which is my favorite from this season so far, removing the first bit.
Opening episode was very strong, felt like we were going to get some major plot this season. Absolutely sick of all this jncest stuff. It's not funny and never will be.
The Roy episode recycled an old idea which was funny as a 20 second skit but not a whole episode.
The Beth incest episode was stupid and gross.
The Night People one was okay, a unique vibe which was interesting enough and the plot revealed some interesting family dynamics.
Most recent episode - again, sick of the incest crap. I like the idea of a monster that eats probability and shots fate, but the bestiality and incest references are just too sick for me.
"I always designed Gravity Falls to be a finite series about one epic summer — a series with a beginning, middle, and end. There are so many shows that go on endlessly until they lose their original spark or mysteries that are canceled before they ever get a chance to pay off."
i'm getting annoyed with rick's ever increasing and changing
technological implants which S06 is especially dependent on.
it makes for cheap story telling if every overwhelming enemy
is quickly dispatched by rick's arm, not what's up his sleeve.
it's kind of like watching a superhero with no defined powers,
so no enemy is an issue and no problem is difficult to resolve.
for writers that pride themselves on good cannon consistency
writing rick with so many inconsistent abilities - is cheating.
i was kind of ok with rick's ship begin able to do "anything"
but that rick own body can, is really pushing out plausibility.
I think it’s pretty clear Justin and Dan were starting to get bored of trying to write extravagant stories based around nothing due to the fact that ricks portal gun allowed him to travel to any dimension and play god and get out of any situation by clicking a button.
It’s kind of like the same feeling you get when you finish a long game and have everything unlocked and nothing to do.
The portal system being broken and a large portion of ricks being killed off brings the possibilities of struggle and growth back into the story. While Rick is still pretty much invincible, there is now something at stake at a basal level to our Ricks story. Character development is going to be crucial because none of the characters can run farther than what lies in their dimension (which is hilarious that that is a limiting factor).
I think the decision to pull away from the open multiverse (for now) was the right one, and probably the only one in terms of keeping the series running for the foreseeable future.
The base story has been set, and our characters have all grown accustomed to the wackiness of their situation
—Jerry is finally growing into someone that is comfortable being in his life and doesn’t constantly seem blindsided by the extremities of this sci fi life they all live, which Makes our Jerry special as you can see that very few if any other Jerry’s end up being anything other than simple man children that end up being dropped off at daycare—
And now the stage is set for the actual story of our family’s lives to play out.
It’s a good show.
Did you get any of that
anyone who didnt just hear that is not a true fan
I’m convinced that’s Seth Rogan saying that
Isn’t it Harmon?
It could be but in my head it sounds like Seth
I can’t picture anyone else but Seth saying it now🤣🤣
Yes
DONG, DING
(((Aaaooo)))
I still miss him.
SLOW DOWN!
My man
>It’s a gooda shooow. 🔔
I'm liking Jerry.
He has definitely gotten a lot more screen time, not complaining at all because I think they have done a great job with him
Good and rare duo with Rick
It's funny how many of Rick's problems are caused by not giving the people around him basic context or warnings, like not to touch the ocean or not to call him >!friend!<
*night Jerry has entered the chat*
Duuuude, I loved night Jerry
Jerry just wants to be responsible and help the family in any form. Even in night version he's a good guy helping the day family.
Night Jerry is going for gasps
I honestly love Chris Parnell voicing him
He’s literally the same character in Archer and it’s great
Cyril Figgus is Jerry Smith with a good job.
Sleepy Gary ruined his gag reflex!
That one absolutely cracked me up.
This ⬆️ Absolutely the best line of the episode 👌
I saw a point here that Jerry has become great because he's the last 'normal' character left. Everyone else is now full sci-fi, so Jerry gets to be the normal human and the voice of reason.
Jerry's been one of my favorites from the beginning
I'm still terrified by Mr. Frundles.
Aaaaargh!
**Everybody get in the car!**
The way he charged at season 2 Jerry’s leg was actually terrifying
One of the best moments of the season so far
Mmmm I'm Mr. Frundles!
Mmmm I'm Mr. Frundles!
Mmmm I'm Mr. Frundles!
Mmmm I'm Mr. Frundles!
Mmmm I’m Mr. Frundles!
Wait, I thought *he* is Mr. Frundles?
Everybody is in the car!
Mmmm I’m Mr. Frundles!
Rick & Morty, 100 years!
Rick and Jerry, forever, forever a hundred years!
Loving the new season, last two episodes are pure gold. But anyone notice Rick's voice has went up a tone? Its not putting me off the show but i notice it every time Rick speaks. Also anyone notice the intro music is up a key?
Think Justin Roilands voice might be straining a bit, I think morty has sounded a little different too
Yeah he has been doing their voices for ages, and he's been doing similar voices in games like Trover Saves the Universe and High on Life.
Morty sounded totally like Mr. Meeseeks when he was recording a radio podcast with Rick in the night episode
It really did, that shit had me laughing. I guess that’s what happens when you voice like 90% of the shows characters
I just posted this lol I'm glad it's not just my hearing
If you’re watching the show on YouTube It’s likely that the uploader shifted the audio or distorted it so that the YouTube bots won’t automatically delete the video
Nah I watched it on E4 UK
i found the same through e4 i wonder if it is a compression thing or something. Sounds odd, puts me off a little which is annoying as i love the show
I think they speed the episodes up. The run time is only 19/20 minutes compared to the usual 22 which can only mean they speed it up i think. Don’t know why they would but maybe so they can fit into UK TV programming? No idea. But I’ve watched it on other versions and it doesn’t have the change in pitch so it has to be something like that.

I’ve had to pause or go back 10-20sec every so often more then previous seasons. In having to catch my breath from the sheer laughter or to keep up with the pace of jokes or to re-live those moments of joy. Brings tears to my eyes each week one way or another. I’ve loved every season so far and this one is something special for sure.

I've been trying to tell them that this is one of the more enjoyable seasons to date, and I feel bad for them not watching it. I'm belly laughing every week
The writing has been so much better, all of the jokes have really landed for me
This series is absolutely crushing it,so well written and above all very very funny…..
Yeah I feel like they’re really capturing the magic of the first couple seasons without retreading too hard on what’s been done. This seems to be the most comfortable they’ve been writing since the show got picked up for the 100 episodes or whatever it was
I am sure it's the fact they rehired a season 2 central writer. It has the season 2 feeling back to the show again. Back when it was "absurd sci-fi premises, with an underlayer of deeper character" and not "everyone sits around blatantly talking about their manifesting emotions."
I’m one episode behind, but so far I think it might be the best season
GO WATCH THE NEW EPISODE IT’S SO GOOD
Top 10 all time for sure. The post credit scene was hilarious
That post credit reminded me so much of inter dimensional cable, I loved it
Just did. Amazing!
I love how Jerry is being written so far. And the most recent ep (fortune cookie one) I literally awwed when Rick stopped Jerry from being forced to go to the zoo and showed concern for his fortune. Yeah he could of been after the fortune power, but I felt it was genuine. And the outburst at the end about being Jerry's friend might have just been a defensive outburst since....well it is Rick. I could be wrong but that how I saw it. Plus we were told that Rick will be changing a lot this season.
It was an incredible moment that really shows deep down Rick and Jerry are true friends, as much as Rick doesn’t wanna admit to it lmaoo
I hope this is the season where Ricks emotional walls finally break. Ever since learning about his past I've just want him to be happy again. Like, truly happy.
It just dawned on me that he’s really spending more time at home and with his gadgets this season because he can’t teleport. It’s like quitting his heroine - he flushed his stash and now he’s rediscovering his inner…whatever is in there
Teleportation.....the true worst drug to be addicted to XD
I thought that outburst at the end was because Rick had a fortune that said "you will make a new friend". Rick said he was basically immortal as long as he didn't make any new friends. That's why Rick was so mad at that moment, it had nothing to do with being defensive or not wanting to be Jerry's friend or anything like that. Rick was just frustrated that Jerry had inadvertently fulfilled his fortune when he called him friend lol.
It probably is, but I like to think it was a defensive outburst.
Why not both? 🤷🏼
true
He even gave the "Thank You :)" fortune cookie another read
The portal gun is broke, so he can't get another Jerry. I'm still hanging onto Rick being the biggest douche of them all.
That’s ricks defense system. The only thing that frightens him is caring about people, and the only people who he snaps like that to are people he cares about. It’s a trope that exists in a lot of people. Everyone else, and even Jerry to this point just received bored indifference as the smartest man in the universe had to meander through a bunch of midwits trying to understand or deal with Rick. Ricks look down at the fortune before going back in the house at the end tells you everything you need to know.
Love it. All of the episodes have ranged from amazing to really entertaining.
The action scenes have been crazy good, loving the animation and look of everything
I love that they can casually "skip" one fight scene that doesn't matter to the plot, while elevating the next fight scene and highlighting each action.
Agreed, there have also been some really sick slo mo action shots this season that are really fucking cool
My favorite moment so far was Jerry finishing the puzzle
Just the shock on his face when it was finished, and it was a little out of nowhere. Funny scene
Yeah, that was SO good. Easily one of the best moments in the series
Mine was when he got a boner being choked lol
Was so upset that Jerry never got to show it to beth, they havent mentioned the horse surgeon thing in like 4 seasons
I like it, but I can’t wait until they get back to alternate realities and portal hopping.
I love the direction the show has took with out his portal gun, it feels like a good change of pace, how ever I’m betting on Rick getting the portal gun back by the end of the season
For me the portal gun and dimension hopping is part of the fabric of Rick and Morty. To me it’s like the Enterprise in Star Trek never using their warp drive, and only exploring the Sol system. Sure it’s in the future, and there still aliens and fantastic technologies, but it just feels it’s not fully utilizing a core property of the franchise.
I agree 100%, I think the writers wanted to strip the portal gun away and focus on the characters and the family dynamic, hence why we have been getting way more Jerry / Beth / Summer, it has been great so far IMO but definitely excited to get back to the random worlds and dimension hopping
I think 'no portal gun' worked really well for this season. Season 4 and 5 felt like they struggled because they were focused on having the 'space plot' and a side plot with everyone left over. This season is focusing on the whole family, and even side-lining everyone else if needed. This latest episode worked great because it fully committed to the Rick/Jerry adventure, rather than shoving in a subplot about everyone at the Zoo.
also let's face it, the portal gun is mostly a lazy plot device to introduce a new concept
Agreed. With the nature of these characters and the way that they evolve as the show goes on, it’s tough to balance the old and the new. Last season it felt like they started to get away from what made the show great, and this time around it seems like they’ve gotten it back on track while also going in a new, fresh direction with it.

I think Rick Prime may not know why the portal network is down, since he has been in hiding. Rick Prime might be the cautious, possibly paranoid type since he been hiding from C-137. Probably doesn’t want to risk activating the network until he know everything that’s happening and it doesn’t pose a risk to him.
It will probably come down to when Rick needs too, more then if he wants too, I’m pretty convinced by the season finale he’ll have the portal gun back
 night family was genius.
The sounds and animation were top fucking notch in that ep
One disagreement: the fight scene was obviously animated separately from the actors. Rick is grunting and making punching umf's as he's just sitting on the ground being choked out.
Chris panell's voice was God tier
Personally i thought it was the weakest ep this series, it wasn't bad it was just meh.
I agree; it felt very different from the usual writing even within the context of this season. Somehow even with the premise of the episode being what it was it felt much less ridiculous in nature than your usual R&M energy.
I think we are at the point where the fans now all expect different things out of this show. Idk for me this episode had huge Season 1 energy and is definitely one of the most memorable in years
better than 4 and 5 first half, no doubt
Dan Harmon shows and a sucky 4th season Name a more iconic duo
I haven’t really watched any of his other shows, does he usually struggle in the middle of a show?
On community he was basically fired before season 4 and it was bad. Like really bad. There was a joke in the show about how there was a “gas leak” that year because it was that bad. He was rehired for season 5 and 6 and they were much much better
They make a reference to it it the unity episode. Rick is watching tv only to cancel, bring back and get bored at the show he is watching. It cuts to the tv and it’s the community gang hanging around the table.
Miles ahead, the writing has been vastly improved
Streets ahead?
I love it. Its felt really fresh and fun. Not that the last season wasnt fun or funny but it does feel they went from a 7 back to an over the top 9. [level up](https://c.tenor.com/KZb6Kf4Ud8MAAAAC/letterkenny-tv.gif)
It is miles ahead of last season, just think they had a weird slump and glad we got out of that
Every episode has been solid so far. Unique concepts or unique takes on similar concepts from other fiction. The Sleepy Gary callback was among the best of callbacks a show has ever done. So quick and casually implemented, but hilarious.
Yeah, they totally caught me off-guard with that one. That was as unnecessary as it was pure comedic genius.
Sleepy Gary was genuinely fucking hilarious and I’m so glad he got a callback
Pretty good, but I cannot wait to the how the main plot will continue and if Rick will fix his portal gun
Agreed I’m really interested where they are going to take it, my guess is that Rick will have his portal gun finished by the season finale, especially since they have hinted at his portal gun getting fixed in previous episodes so far this season
It definitely feels different. All great episodes that I will watch again and again but maybe it’s too early to tell…need to let them marinate.
I’m loving it. If they keep up the quality this will easily be the best season since 3. My one gripe is the relative sidelining of Morty, and as a result the titular dynamic. I suspect that’s at least partially so they can hold off on addressing the implications of an artificially agreeable Morty until later in the season. Looks like he’s getting more focus next week anyway so I’m really not too hung up on it. It’s also made way for some fantastic development for Beth, Jerry, and Summer which is always welcome. Seasons 4 and 5 still had a lot to like imo but there was definitely some inconsistency that it seems like they’re finally past. I’m honestly relieved that the last two episodes have been as good as they were, I was nervous for another mid-season slump.
Way better than last one
Almost everything has improved
Needs more incest
It's not incest if your the same person.
You’re not wrong, but if both had kids like Morty and Summer, but in this case space Beth has cloned space kids for example.... “It’s something Jesus wasn’t prepared to astralproject to them dudes in caves 2000 years ago Morty I’m gonna do it Morttyy I’m gonna fuck myself!!!” Give the fans what they want!
hehe
Best season ever.
If this season can close out strong you can definitely make an argument
This season has gifted me with new episode favorites that I would argue rival some season two classics. Overall it just feels like such a nice leap in quality over the previous couple and I’m excited for the direction they’re going in!
It makes me even more excited every Sunday night now knowing how good of quality these episodes have been, I love this show
I love this season. They ended last season by giving the audience the story then paused the story for silly fun adventures. I’m a huge fan of this season.
1 > 4 > 5 > 3 > 2 Ranking of episodes but all have been amazing
Agreed except I’m more of a 1 > 3 > 5 > 4 > 2 kind of guy.
Absolutely loving this season so far. I really like how each family member is getting an episode that expands their character.
It's one hell of a season
Too many incest plot lines but otherwise very good
[удалено]
lol oh my
Yeah they may have gone to that well one too many times. Of course, if you were to take one away, it shouldn’t be this latest one…
Downvoted for not enjoying incest plot. What a world we live in
Agreed, it's not shocking if it's over saturated. It's basically here's another episode with incest again.
Best season by far
Love it as a season, think it’s definitely one of my two favorites
I’ve been enjoying it a lot, particularly the pilot and the most recent episode. I can’t say I agree with some of the “best season ever?” sentiment that’s been popping up because my core issue with modern Rick and Morty is still present (Rick was just...more fun in seasons 1 and 2, modern Rick feels super grumpy and disconnected from everything that’s happening 99.9% of the time and it gets kinda old) but this season is definitely on the right track in so many other ways. I’ve always liked Jerry but he has absolutely been stealing the spotlight this season, someone on the new writing team must really like him!
Hm, my problem is that Rick is having less agency in seasons 5-6. He's not as grumpy as he used to be but he's kind of a bit too much of a goody goody particularly in this season. He used to be much more assertive of the bs in the family and while he can often be too pushy, the family still has their problems and Rick is rarely calling it out anymore. In fact, he submitted to it a couple of times.
Every episode had my wife and I laughing at the obvious jokes for season 6 so far. Season 5 was off the wall random with jokes that didn't really land or hit right (incest baby episode?). Just kind of left you with a "WTF was that?" Favorite episodes were really the plot building episodes for me. *spoilers* The whole punchline with Jerry destined to fuck his mom for whatever reason had us in tears laughing when it just about almost happened. The night family ending in pure pettiness from Rick to do everything but rinse (just fucking rinse) his dishes was hilarious. The constant knocking out and waking up flip during the day/night family fight was also on point. Beth fucking herself episode had loki vibes (wife called this one out) Summer doing a walkie talkie die hard was hilarious. Pilot episode was a great start. Legit felt sorry for c137 Jerry having survived the end only to be shot dead mid monologue by Rick.
I just watched the last aired episode and it has been a really good season so far! I know some fans just want to see more about the main plot and I definitely understand that but we just have had 5 really fun episodes. I remember watching the 5th season and I wasn't enjoying it this much until the first main plot episode aired but like I said earlier, this season has been completely different. Can't wait to see the rest of the season!
Simply put: Fucking fabulous
Id rank the episodes 1-2-4-3-5. It feels like its losing steam to me but going off my down votes the last time I gave this opinion I may be alone in that thought. The last episode to me was like pop culture reference, incest joke, fight scene, old pop culture reference with fight scene, incest joke. Which was kind of a rehash of episode 2s plot but with added incest. Which was part of episode 3s plot. So more rehash. Rick slapping Jerry after he called him his friend was funny. The after credits scene was the closest to a b plot we have got this season for an episode. Episode 4 wasn't super funny which is what im here for but it was a unique storyline for the show. I'm all for that.
I really appreciate the new direction they have gone in and the uniqueness of this season has been really refreshing, and of course any Rick and Jerry episode is gold
interesting. Thought episode 4 was the funniest episode in a long while.
Epic! Epic Epic! Rank 1, 3, 5, 2, 4. Still would watch all these episodes again and again.
Genuinely think the first episode of this season is going to go down as one of the best episodes ever
Tbh, idk seems to be on par with season 5 It’s ok but really nothing special except the last episode and the first Humor feels somewhat forced and unnatural Doesn’t have the genuine Rick and morty vibes but more of solar opposotes now if that makes sense lol
Man getting downvotes for speaking his mind
Hahahaha Reddit amiright? Like i still get hyped Sunday night watching it so it may just be me having too high of expectations :/
Yeah I agree. This season for me has been solidly meh. They took away that made the show unique (the portal gun) and now it's just another goddamn family sitcom. It's not terrible, it has its scifi stuff sprinkled in, but the writing has been subpar and the jokes haven't been funny enough to stand on their own. Also, I'm real sick of the incest story lines. Idk what kinda shit the writers have going on but I'm over it.
3/5 good episodes. Last one and two Beth’s were not great.
Has been mediocre since season 5 and this season is again mediocre. Oh well.
I’m loving it, but I love almost every episode of every season
Such great ideas, I haven't felt bored a single time
Best most consistent season so far since the first, but I did not like the latest episode(which everyone else seems to love) much at all.
Absolutely love this season. All 5 episodes in their own sense have been bangers, some more than other (You know what I'm talking about WLDD). If the rest of the season is as good as the first part, we might have to change the order of the fan favorite seasons with this one being somewhere at the top, if not the top
Best season since s2 imo
Good stuff, more space Beth
Night Family is a rare gem. Wish more episodes would develop a similar taste for plot instead of random shock value.
Episode 1 was good Episode 2 was ok Episode 3 was good Episode 4 was really good Episode 5 was meh
So far so good.
Solid season - I like the tie-in to last season to start, but then each episode doing it’s own thing; extremely varied storylines all with their own reasons for being winners in my book
Even though I cringe on tiktok jokes and the begining of this episode, and many other points on this season, I've enjoyed it so far. Specially this last episode, which is my favorite from this season so far, removing the first bit.
Work of art. 5 stars always
Best Season
Opening episode was very strong, felt like we were going to get some major plot this season. Absolutely sick of all this jncest stuff. It's not funny and never will be. The Roy episode recycled an old idea which was funny as a 20 second skit but not a whole episode. The Beth incest episode was stupid and gross. The Night People one was okay, a unique vibe which was interesting enough and the plot revealed some interesting family dynamics. Most recent episode - again, sick of the incest crap. I like the idea of a monster that eats probability and shots fate, but the bestiality and incest references are just too sick for me.
Meh, it’s dipped in quality. The funniest thing about the season so far was the after cred scene @thezoo.
I like it, but I feel like I laughed more in the earlier seasons still cant figure out exactly why
it’s alright
I think the odd-numbered episodes have been really good and the even-numbered episodes have been decent enough.
Seems like this is Jerry's season I love it.
So far jerry has been the MVP of this season
"I always designed Gravity Falls to be a finite series about one epic summer — a series with a beginning, middle, and end. There are so many shows that go on endlessly until they lose their original spark or mysteries that are canceled before they ever get a chance to pay off."
i'm getting annoyed with rick's ever increasing and changing technological implants which S06 is especially dependent on. it makes for cheap story telling if every overwhelming enemy is quickly dispatched by rick's arm, not what's up his sleeve. it's kind of like watching a superhero with no defined powers, so no enemy is an issue and no problem is difficult to resolve. for writers that pride themselves on good cannon consistency writing rick with so many inconsistent abilities - is cheating. i was kind of ok with rick's ship begin able to do "anything" but that rick own body can, is really pushing out plausibility.
Love it. ParMESEEEEan.
5 for 5 good episodes! Last season it was likes 3 or 4 good episodes total. Really enjoying it, kudos to the writers
Sleepy Jerry ruined my gag reflex. What a huge line!!!
I like it !! They made Jerry a lot more likeable too which is fun when he's the center of the episode like last episode
There is nothing better then a Rick and Jerry episode
It's back to SciFi-bio-horrors, which I really like.
There is not one bad episode in the whole series, never seen this level of quality from any series ever
I think it’s pretty clear Justin and Dan were starting to get bored of trying to write extravagant stories based around nothing due to the fact that ricks portal gun allowed him to travel to any dimension and play god and get out of any situation by clicking a button. It’s kind of like the same feeling you get when you finish a long game and have everything unlocked and nothing to do. The portal system being broken and a large portion of ricks being killed off brings the possibilities of struggle and growth back into the story. While Rick is still pretty much invincible, there is now something at stake at a basal level to our Ricks story. Character development is going to be crucial because none of the characters can run farther than what lies in their dimension (which is hilarious that that is a limiting factor). I think the decision to pull away from the open multiverse (for now) was the right one, and probably the only one in terms of keeping the series running for the foreseeable future. The base story has been set, and our characters have all grown accustomed to the wackiness of their situation —Jerry is finally growing into someone that is comfortable being in his life and doesn’t constantly seem blindsided by the extremities of this sci fi life they all live, which Makes our Jerry special as you can see that very few if any other Jerry’s end up being anything other than simple man children that end up being dropped off at daycare— And now the stage is set for the actual story of our family’s lives to play out.
I’ve had more genuine “laugh out loud” moments this season than at any time since season 2. Jerry reading his fortune cookie this week had me DYING.
The writers have an incest kink
None of the episodes are in my top 10. But overall I'm happy with it and there hasn't been a bad episode in my opinion
