I know Rick & Morty fandom has gotten a little out of control these days, but I'm still on that ship. I love the show. I feel like the creators, Justin Roiland and Dan Harmon, are geniuses, and their adult animated sci-fi sitcom is hilarious.
What do you mean the fandom has gotten out of control?
I've seen some people complain about Rick & Morty's popularity when McDonald's re-introduced their szechuan sauce because of one of the show's episodes. But anyway, the show is great because it follows a mad scientist, Rick, and his grandson, Morty, who is influenced by his shenanigans. They kind of go back and forth between domestic life and interdimensional adventures, so you get a wide variety in terms of pacing.
Oh I did hear about that, I hear about how obnoxious the fans are on reddit sometimes I think. I should take a look into the show though
Hah, yes, Reddit, definitely where a lot of the negativity spawns from--and for good reason, as the fandom gets a little wild at times. What I like is how talented the creators/voice actors are. Justin Roiland helped create the show, and also voices the main characters. Kind of a jack of all trades.
that is interesting that he does all that, must be a lot of work, but also humbling. What is the easiest way to watch the show?
You can watch it on Adult Swim's website, as it airs on the Cartoon Network. Ever seen "Back to the Future," and kind of liked it? It's more of an animated comedy version of that, slightly. In fact, the whole series spawned from a short parody film of "Back to the Future" made by Roiland, and shown at a film festival put on by Harmon.
