A Gregghead, I guess?

I just watched a little bit of it. Pretty funny.

He’s funny. Humor is it’s own point.

“Can I raise a practical question at this point? Are we gonna do Sweet Dreams tomorrow?”

“Luckily.”

Sounds like a Dope Show.

You realise that this episode was probably written at least a year ago? It’s not South Park.

does it matter? I say dont read or listen to the fan base and just watch the show.

Everything sucks—at least if you’re smart.

It’s no longer as dirty as a crackhouse, it’s now as clean as a cocaine house.

Hm, kinda lost me when you say you value free speech but immediately tell folk what not to talk about.

“Only intellectual posts is tolerated”

I’m struggling to see “psychopath Beth” as anything less than a retcon, let alone rivaling Rick. I’m not saying she’s a good person, but I’d buy this as a Rick manipulation before I’d buy that she’s been a violent crazy person all this time and we’re only just learning of it. She’s been nothing but a normal (if…

“Rick needs to make sure everyone of his family members knows how dark life is, when ignorance would very much be bliss according to his own rational.”

“Am I evil?”
“Worse— you’re smart.”

This was followed by one of the most terrible edgy monologues about how stupid average people are. This is why Harmon has attracted a fanbase of fucking libertarian neckbeards. I didn’t realize R&M was now taking their dialogue directly from r/iamverysmart.

It’s falling back on this…

Thomas Middleditch was fantastically creepy.

They certainly did batshit exploration of the characters this week—no doubt there. The theme of “everything’s shit, but I have to pretend not to care for my daughter and grandkids” is getting old for me. The writers do have Rick caring for his daughter and grandkids, they just have to smother it with Rick’s feigned…

Do you feel obligated to give every episode an A regardless of how good the episode actually was? Because it’s getting annoying. This episode was B material at best.

getting really tired of the edgy teenage nihilism in this season. Sure it’s always been a part of the series but it worked a lot better when it was limited to the occasional gut punch rather than the central focus of every other episode.

Tbh, kinda felt like a big misfire to me. Tossing the entire main cast into the apathy boat, then leaning into the “misery through intelligence” bullshit they’ve been lampshading in a way that certain fans will inevitably take at face value... like a “worst of” episode compilation.
