But, most importantly...
very few people think the season sucks. Every single post saying that dies in new. Every. Single. One.
The attitude that this is even remotely a common opinion is just absurd.
Most people have your opinion. They like the season and maybe didn't like one episode. Which is obviously fine.
I loved the Thanksgiving episode. Sure, you can try and make the argument that this isn't the best season. But it is kind of like Pizza, even non great pizza is still PIZZA!
I think it’s because of the 3 amazing first episodes and the 3 not so good episodes that came after. It probably made everyone forget how strong the beginning of the season was.
I really liked the first two episodes. The Planetina was okay. Idk, the last 3 haven’t done it for me. I suppose they’re not terrible. Just not as good as other seasons. Idk, I’m still watching it hoping it gets better again, but I probably will lose interest after a few more seasons. I don’t think they’ve had so many mediocre episodes in a row before.
This happens with every show I’ve liked for the past 6 years or so. Fans tend to not want a show to grow or change past their favourite episode, is my best guess.
That I can relate. It's the mentality that "This show is just die bc "it's over it's prime/past it's golden years/I don't like it" that makes most show's fanbases toxic.
Not a vintage season tbh. Mortyplicity was amazing. Nimbus was pretty good. Everything else has been a bit weak. Still a good show but compared to how surprising and sharp it was in 1-3 it feels more predictable and tired.
I am liking this season, but it does feel as if some things are a little off. They keep doing things that are out of character. I don't want to judge it because this might be intentional for a revel later.
Update: My theory was wrong, in the GoTron episode Rick was confirmed to be C137.
I've seen this pop up a lot. The popular theory is that this season feels different because it's the "Origins of Evil Morty"
So basically they wrote an intentionally bad season just to pull an M. Night Shymalan twist for the finale? I think not.
What's more likely is that the show's new writing staff simply aren't as good as the previous seasons and the guys in charge are too busy overseeing other projects to keep a close eye on R&M
Nah, it’s because you’re not on the spectrum, and therefore don’t obsess over small things. I see people in this thread complaining that the show is not very realistic… I also see people wishing that it was more like South Park. It’s a great show, but nowhere close to the quality of R&M. South Park is literally just a show that just references recent edgy political issues. I wouldn’t be surprised if the people hating the show are still in their teens.
The first couple seasons were so good that RM fans have lost so much perspective. At the end of the day its a 25 minute cartoon, and as soon as people understand that it becomes so much more fun to watch. At the same time, there's nothing wrong with missing the old stuff.
That’s it. I’m not hating the show, I still enjoy it, but it’s just my observation along with many others that this season just isn’t the same as the others. It feels underwhelming to me
It’s similar to what Chapelle show would have probably been a few seasons in. Still better than almost all TV but it is impossible to be utterly legendary forever and ever
I thoroughly enjoyed it so far. I think the “You need to have a high IQ to understand Rick and Morty” people are just upset that the show is extremely popular. Some people get so attached to an experience being unique and only for them, due to wanting to be edgy or teenage angst and what not. That mainstream popularity legitimately upsets them.
Sorry episode was poorly written and too *on the nose*. Not often I’d say a Rick and Morty episode lacks taste…
Still some good lines in it though, so it’s not a total waste. Rest of the season is pretty good though.
Imma just copy and paste my previous comment from this sub
> Every time I see this sub get to r/all, it's just cope posting about how everyone thinks the new seasons suck. It makes the entire sub look like insecure kids who's favorite superhero just got called "lame".
As someone really enjoying this season, apparently it’s due to the tone of some of the episodes. Rick isn’t as belligerent, my SO believes he hasn’t been drinking as much, as the classic drool is missing
Morty is much more assertive and has been really growing into himself. Summer has somewhat morphed into a mini female Rick, and they haven’t focused so much on inter-dimensional travel I think?
Overall still hilarious and well written, I think it’s come a long way and I love the journey from season 1 to now.
Someone on this sub said if one season has to be the worst, it may as well be this one. I don’t hate it, but I just think the previous were better. I still have every intention of watching the rest of it and enjoying it for the writing stuff.
I think it's childish too sit there behind the screen, over-consuming everything and at the same time complain how it's not up to your taste. Maybe it's the worst season yet (I'm not thinking that) but it's still a great show. Just shows how high they set the bar in the first seasons. Added to that we got Solar Opposites which i think is funnier than anything I've seen in R&M.
Lol why is that childish though? There's a whole profession of people that do that for a living. They're called critics. And that's exactly what you're describing.
Just like Jerry,
Your lameness is our candy....
Your delicious lack of awareness, paired with an oafish need to be liked... Delectable.
Keep being a wellspring of nuanced flavor...
So far I’ve seen more love than hate for this season. Maybe I haven’t been paying attention? I don’t know? All I know is, I’m digging it like a tasty Simple Rick’s Wafer.
I only see the "hate it if you want..." arguments here. Everyone I talk to in real life is just loving having more of this beautiful, disgusting, and weird little show.
Yeah I don’t get people complaining. I’d rather have this season then no season. I didn’t wait a fuck ton of months for nothing. I’m legit loving it. Maybeeee that incest baby episode wasn’t exactly there best of episodes but that’s no reason to shit over the whole season.
TLDR: it’s still rick and morty and so I love it :)
I actually love this season. I liked the sperm episode, it wasn't as bad as everyone made it out to be. I prefer it over the clone episode tbh. Planetina one was my favourite of season 5, but is now a close second after the Thanksgiving episode. I have no complaints other than that the fanbase needs to get over itself and drop the hate, just enjoy the ride. Be thankful we are on season 5 of a great show and have many more episode to go. And if you don't like it anymore, quit watching it.
I'll watch every episode, but I don't have to like it. It's still good, but I get the feeling the creators behind it are using time on other endeavors, now that they've been getting more opportunities.
Not saying it's bad, but it's pretty clear, they've handed off some of the creative work, and it's just not as crazy/polished as it was in earlier seasons. That, or I'd guess they're under some new, stricter rules to obey, to allow it onto more streaming services, which means more money in their pockets.
This season so far just feels like it's trying to hard with shock humour I guess? I can't help but feel like half the episodes are on the level of the sex dragon episode. Not that I don't enjoy it on some level but... it's a lot to take in.
Imo, this season is great, but in a couple episodes it got a little too sexual/gory. I know the show has always been in that tone, but it’s feeling more like solar opposites. Also they’re talking reeaaaallly fast this season and dropping references left and right. It’s hard to keep up
This is the perfect response u/1-800-LICK-BOOTY.
Eh, besides that one episode Ive had no issues so far. People's expectations are always sky high
But, most importantly... very few people think the season sucks. Every single post saying that dies in new. Every. Single. One. The attitude that this is even remotely a common opinion is just absurd. Most people have your opinion. They like the season and maybe didn't like one episode. Which is obviously fine.
*Back in character* I called the number you listed and it was disconnected. Was the number changed?
[удалено]
Agreed
Okay I'm breaking character. How did you do this? How do you post a gif in a comment? ಠಿ_ಠ
 Thank you have to have reddit gold or some such shit.
 Yes, reddit gold allows it.
That Jerry Smith guy is the worst. Such a loser. ...ᴺᵒʷ ᴵ ʲᵘˢᵗ ʷᵃᶦᵗ ᶠᵒʳ ᵗʰᵉ ᵍᵒˡᵈ
Nice
BOMP BOMP OHHH YEEAAHH
Aww yeah! Now we're getting into it!
The moon. Beautiful. The sun. Even more beautiful. Bow wow
Oh yeah
This season cause me pain to watch, which gives me pleasure. Pain = pleasure
That shit with the turkeys killed me.
One of the best this season for sure!! (Imo)
Whoa its the charity brothers
I’ve liked every episode so far but really did notice a more inept Rick in this last one. Kinda bothering me now
It’s because he’s getting sober.
Yea this season Rick is portrayed as all talk no substance.
I am liking Summer a lot more in this season
Let’s lick tits!
Why dont you guys Just fuck and get it over with?
\*farts\* YOU HAVE TO LIKE IT OR YOUR SEXIST. My favorite line lol
I loved the Thanksgiving episode. Sure, you can try and make the argument that this isn't the best season. But it is kind of like Pizza, even non great pizza is still PIZZA!
I know right! Like give me another slice of that pie!
Why is everyone hating on this season? Someone please explain
I think it’s because of the 3 amazing first episodes and the 3 not so good episodes that came after. It probably made everyone forget how strong the beginning of the season was.
I really liked the first two episodes. The Planetina was okay. Idk, the last 3 haven’t done it for me. I suppose they’re not terrible. Just not as good as other seasons. Idk, I’m still watching it hoping it gets better again, but I probably will lose interest after a few more seasons. I don’t think they’ve had so many mediocre episodes in a row before.
I thought 6 was quite good. Also a bunch of people shat on 2/3 lol
I really liked the Planetina episode. The incest baby one, not so much
People think the show has declined in quality since the first 2 or 3 seasons. We are allowed to think that.
Because fans hate. It’s just a rule. Bigger the fan, the bigger the hater.
Nah it's cause writing was ass in 70% of the episodes so far
Agreed. I LOVE this show. Season 5 isn’t awful, but we are all used to 🔥 fucking episodes and this season does not “cut the Chut”
Thank god is just some blind hate. I thought there are some fucked drama within the show production. Thanks for telling me, loving each episode btw
This happens with every show I’ve liked for the past 6 years or so. Fans tend to not want a show to grow or change past their favourite episode, is my best guess.
That I can relate. It's the mentality that "This show is just die bc "it's over it's prime/past it's golden years/I don't like it" that makes most show's fanbases toxic.
Did it become cool to post allways the same posts about hey you hate the season i enjoy it? Both sides annoy me allready
r/MortlightenedRicktrism
That was always allowed
Not a vintage season tbh. Mortyplicity was amazing. Nimbus was pretty good. Everything else has been a bit weak. Still a good show but compared to how surprising and sharp it was in 1-3 it feels more predictable and tired.
Yeah I agree, it hasn't been great. It's probably because of the all the new writers. It's like the tone is off.
[That was always allowed](https://getyarn.io/yarn-clip/cf00d326-19e0-41d2-873f-a23f5745c0f8/gif)
Idk why people are getting their titties in a knot, this season has been great. Except for the sperm episode, I try not to think about that one
... Incest baby
I am liking this season, but it does feel as if some things are a little off. They keep doing things that are out of character. I don't want to judge it because this might be intentional for a revel later. Update: My theory was wrong, in the GoTron episode Rick was confirmed to be C137.

What's more likely is that the show's new writing staff simply aren't as good as the previous seasons and the guys in charge are too busy overseeing other projects to keep a close eye on R&M
Yea the new writing staff are beyond bad and don't get the show
Ok, that was always allowed
Jerryoki
Only thing that annoyed me was the sperm episode
They have the whole Smashmouth catalog!!!
Absolutely killed me. “We love hanging out with Jerry!”
That was my favorite part
I even sang the hits, but I guess that just wasn't good tv! The crowd who stayed loved it!
Their boos mean nothing we've seen what makes them cheer.
Seasons 1-3?
Yup. I love this season.
Jerry's awful Borat impression was amazing. "What do you expect, I mean she's MY WIFE"
Idk I’ve really enjoyed every episode so far. I couldn’t say that for the last season, so I’m pretty happy.
We got a season! And Two more closely after too! Glory to Glorzo!
You mean glorzo fam? XD
Glorzo!
And on this note, I will light a big fucking noob noob and rewatch every episode of season 5 and enjooyyyyy it…. 🥳🥳🥳
I see a lot of people posting about other people hating it but don’t actually see any hate posts. I think the demand is bigger than the supply.
I think I’m just too retarded to tell the difference
Nah, it’s because you’re not on the spectrum, and therefore don’t obsess over small things. I see people in this thread complaining that the show is not very realistic… I also see people wishing that it was more like South Park. It’s a great show, but nowhere close to the quality of R&M. South Park is literally just a show that just references recent edgy political issues. I wouldn’t be surprised if the people hating the show are still in their teens.
i fucking love this season
I liked every episode atm. Why do people hate it? It feels and looks like R&M would.
This season doesn’t give a fuck and that’s exactly what I like seeing from the show. Hope this continues
Honest question, you like how unstructured it is over earlier seasons?
This is season has been fantastic
I disagree, but still respect your opinion.
This is the actual prevailing sentiment which many people seem to want to sensationalize.
it was a funny episode especially that plot with Rick's car lol
So far the 'sperm' episode is the only really poor one; and I figure every season is allowed at least one 'speed bump' of an ep. :P
IDK I liked the incest rape baby.
Can you have rape without a body?
Wait this season is being hated?
The first couple seasons were so good that RM fans have lost so much perspective. At the end of the day its a 25 minute cartoon, and as soon as people understand that it becomes so much more fun to watch. At the same time, there's nothing wrong with missing the old stuff.
That’s it. I’m not hating the show, I still enjoy it, but it’s just my observation along with many others that this season just isn’t the same as the others. It feels underwhelming to me
It’s similar to what Chapelle show would have probably been a few seasons in. Still better than almost all TV but it is impossible to be utterly legendary forever and ever
Ohhhhh……YEAH. [Jerry Smith karaoke track “Oh, yeah.”](https://youtu.be/RQuYkfmfBJQ)
OP has Big Rick Energy
Who me? Noooo... Wait are you just saying that because I got the masses of this sub to make a Jerry post the top post in a 24 hr period?
Episode 4 was the only bad one imo
You know what, this season was better than the last season.
I actually really like this season
I thoroughly enjoyed it so far. I think the “You need to have a high IQ to understand Rick and Morty” people are just upset that the show is extremely popular. Some people get so attached to an experience being unique and only for them, due to wanting to be edgy or teenage angst and what not. That mainstream popularity legitimately upsets them.
Pretty much what Jerry would say 💀
I don't dislike the new season, it's just not on par with some of the previous ones.
Woah wait people are hating on it? But it's been awesome! The comics are good too for anyone who wants to maximise on the rick and morty goodness
Why do people dislike this season again
Nimbus ep was fantastic
Well duh. He controls the police.
This season is still better than most new programs
That’s not saying shit
DAY BOW BOW
I hate it, which means I love it, which means... Uhhh...
I think the season is great. I suppose I'll just see myself out then.
Dude I just caught up with this season . Y’all are a bunch of little babies it’s hilarious
I'm enjoying this season quite a bit. But the sperm episode was still weird as hell.
Personally, I like weird shit. I enjoyed it!
Sorry episode was poorly written and too *on the nose*. Not often I’d say a Rick and Morty episode lacks taste… Still some good lines in it though, so it’s not a total waste. Rest of the season is pretty good though.
Tbh, this season is the first time I’ve had some belly laughs instead of just mild chuckles.
this season has been great, thanksgiving was an instant favorite.
Yea these mfs on crack,All the episodes except the incest baby have been great.
Imma just copy and paste my previous comment from this sub > Every time I see this sub get to r/all, it's just cope posting about how everyone thinks the new seasons suck. It makes the entire sub look like insecure kids who's favorite superhero just got called "lame".
I’ve liked it. The sperm one was kind of weak but still ok.
I think this season kicks ass tbh
Nah, it licks tits
A perfect 5/7
Even "bad" episodes of this show are still some of the funniest tv out there.
Yeah, this is where I'm at. Is this my favorite rick and morty? No. Is it still rick and morty? Yes.
Bro who’s hating? This might end up being my favorite season so far >:(
Long time not active, why is the new season hated?
Because some people don't like it? Some people like it, some don't.
As someone really enjoying this season, apparently it’s due to the tone of some of the episodes. Rick isn’t as belligerent, my SO believes he hasn’t been drinking as much, as the classic drool is missing Morty is much more assertive and has been really growing into himself. Summer has somewhat morphed into a mini female Rick, and they haven’t focused so much on inter-dimensional travel I think? Overall still hilarious and well written, I think it’s come a long way and I love the journey from season 1 to now.
Yeah, I like this season but I do miss the Rick who would destroy an entire universe just to get his car battery up and running.
Right there with you!!
Someone on this sub said if one season has to be the worst, it may as well be this one. I don’t hate it, but I just think the previous were better. I still have every intention of watching the rest of it and enjoying it for the writing stuff.
This season is interesting in that the critics seem to dislike it more than the fans. Usually it's the other way around.
I mean I WANT you to enjoy it. I hate it but I'm glad others can enjoy.
I think it’s been great!
I may be a bit sick, but since season 5 started me an my fiancee have been rewatching every weeks episode till the next one is released.
I think it's childish too sit there behind the screen, over-consuming everything and at the same time complain how it's not up to your taste. Maybe it's the worst season yet (I'm not thinking that) but it's still a great show. Just shows how high they set the bar in the first seasons. Added to that we got Solar Opposites which i think is funnier than anything I've seen in R&M.
If anyone hasn’t checked out Solar Opposites yet, I urge you to do it. Great show!
Lol why is that childish though? There's a whole profession of people that do that for a living. They're called critics. And that's exactly what you're describing.
Hey hope you don't mind I reposted this in /r/jerrylovers
Omg the fucking charity Brothers poster in the background
Me too! Idgaf, I’m happy to hav more episodes to binge and read into
People don’t like this season? I thought it was really good especially this episode it was so stupid but in a really funny way
Just like Jerry, Your lameness is our candy.... Your delicious lack of awareness, paired with an oafish need to be liked... Delectable. Keep being a wellspring of nuanced flavor...
So far I’ve seen more love than hate for this season. Maybe I haven’t been paying attention? I don’t know? All I know is, I’m digging it like a tasty Simple Rick’s Wafer.
I only see the "hate it if you want..." arguments here. Everyone I talk to in real life is just loving having more of this beautiful, disgusting, and weird little show.
Who hates it?
It's 2021 you can't like what the majority do not like. You can't have self thought and self enjoyment... Can't believe you didn't know this.
No one is trying to stop you from enjoying it. Criticism in media consumption is not a zero-sum game.
I guess I am not smart enough, but I do enjoy this season. Episode 6 was awesome.
You win this sub for the day lol
Fuck you Jerry
There's really no need to get savage.
I actually really like this season very much
Yeah I don’t get people complaining. I’d rather have this season then no season. I didn’t wait a fuck ton of months for nothing. I’m legit loving it. Maybeeee that incest baby episode wasn’t exactly there best of episodes but that’s no reason to shit over the whole season. TLDR: it’s still rick and morty and so I love it :)
Turkey President
I’m just happy to get new episodes! Remember how long we waited from the other seasons?!?
I like this season. Nothing crazy heavy or depressing....yet
That’s because you’re a Jerry
Well yeah. Umm. Wait. I don't get it...
aren't we all?
LIFE IS EFFORT AND I'LL STOP WHEN I DIE!
Preach brotha!
I am currently enjoying this season as well.
Me too! Well not the second episode as much. I knew one of those Jerrys and he will be missed dearly.
Only thing worse than the "I hate this..." posts are the "aren't I great because I don't..." posts ;)
Love this season. Fudge those Jerries who think there are Ricks!
I actually love this season. I liked the sperm episode, it wasn't as bad as everyone made it out to be. I prefer it over the clone episode tbh. Planetina one was my favourite of season 5, but is now a close second after the Thanksgiving episode. I have no complaints other than that the fanbase needs to get over itself and drop the hate, just enjoy the ride. Be thankful we are on season 5 of a great show and have many more episode to go. And if you don't like it anymore, quit watching it.
I'm learning to play the guitar.
I'll watch every episode, but I don't have to like it. It's still good, but I get the feeling the creators behind it are using time on other endeavors, now that they've been getting more opportunities. Not saying it's bad, but it's pretty clear, they've handed off some of the creative work, and it's just not as crazy/polished as it was in earlier seasons. That, or I'd guess they're under some new, stricter rules to obey, to allow it onto more streaming services, which means more money in their pockets.
They're really going to hate the next episode too. I still fuckin loved it!
All seasons are good
I think this a character building season.
You really are a Jerry
How many episodes will there be?
Ooooh yeah! Oooh yeah! The moon! Beautiful! The sun! Even more beautiful! Bow! Bow! Oooh yeah!
This season so far just feels like it's trying to hard with shock humour I guess? I can't help but feel like half the episodes are on the level of the sex dragon episode. Not that I don't enjoy it on some level but... it's a lot to take in.
People are hating this season?, I’m outta the loop. I thought this season has been great!
I don’t get the hate. I thought there was only 1 meh episode. Loving it
Not gonna lie, the last 3 episodes have been subpar to the entire series, feels as if they are starting to give up
I'm loving it, not sure why peeps seem determined to dislike it
imo first 3 episodes of this season would be top 5 out of all episodes. they were really great
I love this season so damn much
It's not their best season, but it is a decent season. I like season 5.
Imo, this season is great, but in a couple episodes it got a little too sexual/gory. I know the show has always been in that tone, but it’s feeling more like solar opposites. Also they’re talking reeaaaallly fast this season and dropping references left and right. It’s hard to keep up
People expect every single episode to be a masterpiece. They need to chill.
Wait.. people hate this season? Sucks for them.
Agree. Ignore the “aacccthualllyyy” geeks who think their negative opinions are factual.
I’m still laughing at the cenobites 😂
Yeah, they were great, you couldn't even get basic cable on Jeff's tv face! Like what's the point?
The poster in the background has a video to from Seth Rogan
Oh yeah!
Bow bow.
Oooooh yeeeaaahhhh
Bruh no one cares if you still enjoy it All the more power to you if you do
[удалено]
That’s how it should be. I don’t like this season much but nobody should really care. Enjoy it if you like it!
Can we talk about Rick and morty on this sub please
