You are correct. It’s not as good as it was for the first three seasons. The only argument is how much it’s declined

Maybe we’re spoiled by so many of them? Good point though.

I was disappointed Birdgirl was only 6 episodes. It started out a little slow, mostly because I (and probably everyone else) thought it would skew more like Harvey Birdman. But its got a slightly different tone and took a little while to adjust. It really started to click 3 or 4 episodes in and then...it’s over. As…

What nobody talks about though is how genuinely good Rick and Morty’s action scenes are. Are people just watching for the jokes, and not actually looking at the screen?

To learn more methods of drawing turkeys the artists would have had to give of themselves to the Great Red Ape. Sexually.

The methods of drawing turkeys were exhausted THOUSANDS OF YEARS AGO (giant puff of fog)

Indeed, it was a short first season of only 6 episodes. Yet all six of them were executed well, held my interest through a 30 minute runtime, and established new characters and updated plot complications while still feeling like the same kind of humor as the original. I hope there’s more to come!

Yes -- first part fine, turkey-pardon plan (and it being old hat to the family even though the viewers have never seen it before) great, then it’s just a bunch of sci-fi combat mostly.

- As fun as the licensed music can be on this show, I really love it when Roiland riffs on a genre with absolute bullshit. The “Country Turkey” song is up there with “Terryfolds” for me.

I actually really enjoyed this episode until around halfway through. The National Treasure parody is really not a big deal IMO - the show leaned on it for about ten seconds before it turned into something else. But I LOVED the sheer ridiculousness of Rick’s turkey-pardon plan - it’s funny concept on its own, but it…

I don’t understand it, I thought after episode 2 that we were sure to be in for one of the best seasons of the series, but now I’m thinking this will likely go down as the overall worst season so far, unless episodes 8-10 are all comedic masterpieces.

I just watched the ATHF episodes with Turkatron and I thought for sure R&M were making an homage to it. There’s probably only so many ways to draw giant turkeys, though. 

The President also seems to be learning from Rick to match his abilities: notice how he was able to plan counter-actions for all of Rick’s initial turkey-heist plans, and the fact that his troops had developed an anti-portal force field that they deployed around his house. The President is coming at Rick like Obadiah…

It is a grave injustice that the turkey episode of WKRP is the only one people remember. That was a great show and I would say the turkey thing was a below average episode.

“I swear, as God as my witness....”

Synchronicity, not coincidence.

Yeah, what happened? This show has lost the structure that was its secret weapon.

The president has super-spy style resources and numbers on his side. Rick’s always going to win, but President Curtis always makes it fun to watch.

Seems like this season really dropped its comedic load at the start of the season. Episodes 1 and 2 have been by far the best and funniest episodes of this season so far. And next week’s episode has already leaked and I can confirm that it too is lacking in the humor department. I mean I don’t think the stories are…

Weird coincidence.  I just rewatched the famous WKRP In Cincinnati episode, Turkey Drop?  So seeing this episode which includes flying turkeys attacking people felt surreal.  Other then that its okay, better the previous episode anyway.  Should have kept Mutant Spider FDR around longer.
