I think the reason that a lot of people have had a hard time getting into “Rick & Morty” is that it’s very much a program that wants to be both everything and nothing at the same time. It shows dedication to developing its characters in full and giving them their own unique voices and points of view… And yet it has no qualms with doing very short moments that elicit no response despite being TOTAL EXISTENTIAL MINDFUCKS.

It’s a program that tries to show grand adventures with the main characters and yet it also tends to spend just as much time taunting the audience with stories that happen off screen. It is carefully written from the ground up and yet a considerable basis of the project is the lead talents’ ability to create whole new scenes entirely from ad-libbing. It wants you to keep a consistent idea about how the program’s universe works, going as far as to show a detailed analysis of the functioning multiverse and yet it also continually has characters lean onto and occasionally glare through the fourth wall and to many of the program’s detractors all of these elements mixed together make “Rick & Morty” seem both pretentious and lazy, which is quite the odd juxtaposition.

it’s for this that many have started to use a notorious copypasta about anyone who doesn’t like the show doesn’t have the IQ for it. If you want to read this copypasta you can scroll down to the comments where five or six of the top posts will be people doing variations of it
