Season 6 episode 2 was a LOT of fun!
Promising for rest of season.
Die hard! Die hard! Die hard!
Peter Dinklage!
S6e1 was really interesting. I know Harmon says they don't want to do arcs but it's where the show is strongest.
Got a lot of little things and possible backstory confirmed.
Mad to think that way back in S1 Morty killed his whole planet just to basically date rape a girl.
Season 6 Episode 2
"How many times can you say Die Hard?"
"Yes!"
Summer Die Harded quite well.
I was thinking how brilliant it would have been if Alan Rickman was still alive and willing to do the voice over for that episode.
Obligatory
That was great,
Mom & Space Mom getting it on.
I have to say that was a brilliant episode
Theme from Taxi
Very good series so far, although episode 6 was only ok compared to the others.
Think that's it for the moment though. I think it's back in a few weeks time
Season 6 resumes this week.
Really sad and surprised to say I don't really care. Show seems in a bit of a rut.
This season has been pretty good and way better than the last 2 two seasons, best its been in a while so hoping for more good episodes.
I think the show has been consistently good for its entire run.
P1ssmaster
Jaysus there was a serious message in this weeks epsidoe about internet bullying and the effects it has on people.
oooh wee what a season.
Thought it was fairly weak throughout tbh.
I think this season is as good if not better than any that have gone before.
In fact the only weak episode of the entire show that comes to mind is the Sex Dragons.
Im in the process of rewatching them all from season 1 and they are all very solid (other than episode 1 itself!)
Some notable favourites:
"Keep Summer safe"
"Solenya"
"Shoneys"
"Whirly Dirly"
I love the sex dragon episode.
Haven't seen Solenya in ages. Absolute classic must watch it later.
I found this season good but I'm not exactly dying to watch every new episode the way I used to. Its better than last season though which had a lot of forgettable mid season episodes.
Mr. Poopybutthole thought it was great.
Oooh Wee...
Aside from current legal challenges Justin Roiland is facing for domestic violence and false imprisonment (which apparently happened in mid-2020 but only made public in the past week or two as the charges are proceeding to trial), screenshots of messages he's sent to women (including some underage women) have started circulating on Twitter.
Messages are from a few years ago, but still pretty damning. Wouldn't be surprised to see more start to come out about him.
God dammit!
Those have a real "I'm too important and full of coke for there to be consequences" kinda vibe off them.
Real wacko Musk vs rescue worker stuff.
Caitie Delaney was a writer on the show
FFS.
Well that's the end of Rick and Morty. It was good while it lasted.
Funny I always assumed it would be Dan Harmon who would end up burying the show over some stupid outburst or something.
He's had issues with alcoholism I think and he's talked openly about and apologised for his harassment of Megan Ganz when she was a writer on Community.
Never knew about the Ganz thing but I know his wife left for a while due to it and there was the way he treated the fall out with Chase.
I remember him talking about the real people that inspired Community and he came across as a right egotistical twwat.
Roiland I literally knew nothing about until today.
Harmon is definitely a bit of a knob. He did issue a very good apology to Megan Ganz on his podcast and discussed it for a long time on it, which Ganz fully accepted. But I think with both him and Roiland, success hasn't always been good for them. Harmon has an air of "tortured artist, burdened by the weight of his own genius" about him. He's capable of great things, but seems to lose the run of himself very easily.
Roiland seemed okay, though I remember seeing a clip of him recording some R&M improv while drunk/drinking, and since then I never felt I'd be surprised if he ended up self-destructing in some way, at least professionally.
Justin Roiland now gone from Rick & Morty, including voicing the characters.
He's also resigned from the games company he was part of, Squanch Games.
So we are getting a Rick & Morty gas leak season 🤣
