their voices and the way they speak annoys me, especially morty who's like nails on a chalkboard for me....not sure how else i can describe my dislike for it
Go back and watch 'em all. Bad ass show!
I want to like it but I really just don't.
The show's not for everyone, and I even try to avoid recommending it to people that I don't really know. I love it and have been hooked since season 1. I can't really explain why because if I'm being honest, a lot of the comedy involved doesn't have a whole lot of substance. I know some people like to argue that there's a deeper meaning involved, but I don't see the deeper meaning to Pickle Rick's character or even Krombopulos Michael's story. It's just different enough from any other show that it stands out and I like the characters involved. The main ones are easy to get attached to, and the minor ones are usually hilarious.
Again, I love the show and watch every episode the week it comes out (sometimes my Monday's have to start early so I miss the release, followed by a busy week), but don't beat yourself up for not liking it, you really aren't missing much.

A floating city called The Citadel filled with just Rick and Mortys, all different occupations.

http://www.nme.com/blogs/tv-blogs/rick-and-morty-ricklantis-best-ever-episode-2139798Watched this one yesterday. Very hard to follow. Was trying to determine if it had some underlying currents about our actual society. Was a pretty dark episode all in all.
Yup, looks like others felt the same if you get past the animation and dig into the commentary. I'll probably re-watch it.
Season 3 concluded tonight. I'm confused. Did Rick go to another dimension and was that a clone? Rick did say he borrowed Jerry's fly fishing hat.

I like the show (but don't love it). I also think Pickle Rick was one of the dumbest fucking things I've ever seen (and not in a good way). Same with the "Get Schwifty" (which was a drastically less clever version of the similar reality TV episode of South Park). Granted they have enough people that can come up with ok episodes by glossing over the stupidity so the show can still be enjoyable. And that's my feeling about the show in general, its fun despite routinely intentionally being the dumbest shit on TV (which is saying something considering some of the shit that AdultSwim has put on the air over the past couple of decades), capped off by some occasional moments where it transcends itself entirely (often in like the last minute of the show, like finding out that it was a Morty controlling a Rick that enslaved a bunch of Mortys; or when Rick barely doesn't explode his head after he gives up on his life with the one being that assimilates everything, or when he gives himself up after realizing he's damaging his family and that his daughter still defends him even after all he'd done). I think my favorite episode is when Rick undermines the devil by providing scientific fixes for his cursed items, and then ends with Rick and Summer taking steroids and beating up the devil, then white supremacist, and then a guy that kicks a dog).
You can stream I think Seasons 1-3 for free on AdultSwim's site (and I believe app). And then I think you can watch the first half of Season 4 (but you have to go to the show's page on AdultSwim's site instead of the stream - don't get confused its free and streaming but I don't think its included in the standard stream where it just runs through the seasons episode by episode over and over).
Even though I was a bit ho-hum on the last 3 seasons of Venture Bros, its still enjoyable. I like that they have a framework for their absurdity and isn't grade school level dumbass "sploff bolbobo" type of idiocy that Rick and Morty has far too much of (absurdity for the sake of absurdity would be fine if its like Salvadore Dali - hell Ax Cop is waaaaaaaaaaaaaay better way of doing absurdity for absurdity sake and that show was literally dreamed up by like a 7 year old or something).
"To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Rick and Morty. The humour is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical physics most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer's head. There's also Rick's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation- his personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realise that they're not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Rick & Morty truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humour in Rick's existential catchphrase "Wubba Lubba Dub Dub," which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev's Russian epic Fathers and Sons. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Dan Harmon's genius wit unfolds itself on their television screens. What fools.. how I pity them. 😂
And yes, by the way, i DO have a Rick & Morty tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- and even then they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand. Nothin personnel kid 😎"
