C.M.O. The highest rating episode, ‘The Ricklantis Mixup’ with a score of 9.8, is a far cry from the recent turds that have been shat upon the audience’s lap. After Roiland was accused of domestic crimes and fired, the show has clearly taken a nose dive in quality as evidenced by the ratings trend.

    Upvoted the post only because it started a conversation, not because I agree with the thesis.

    Counter-argument. Rick and Morty hit the reset button too many times in prior seasons, and the result is that any stakes they may contrive to convince the audience that the characters are in any danger is gone.

    So it doesn’t matter now what they do.

    While I haven’t seen the latest episode yet, this season’s been mostly good. Every season people come out of the woodwork to moan about how much the new season sucks. If it sucks so much, stop watching it
