I haven’t watched Rick an Morty. Am I missing much or is the humor too modern for a Xillennial?

The joke is straightforward. 2 minute cold open of a quick adventure becoming a massive ordeal breaking them, making Rick say they need a vacation which the episode is about.

Thanks, removed it.

Why does that matter? what does it do?

Your SI is a unique tracking code Google assigned to you. When you share a link to a youtube video, Google puts your SI in the link, even though it doesn't serve a purpose in helping people reach the video. What it does do, when you visit a link with someone else's SI, is tell Google that you followed a link shared by this other person. This lets Google see who you've been talking to on other platforms, and track your relationships and social movement patterns.

The modern internet is a fucking nightmare

[-] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 2 points 3 months ago

Oh I know the joke. I really mean about the show. Is it just very quotable/memeable or is it good too?

[-] Hawk@lemmynsfw.com 4 points 3 months ago

Yeah it's great! Check it out.

[-] Allonzee@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

It's my favorite show still on air.

[-] cheers_queers@lemm.ee 1 points 3 months ago

it's very fun, and the creator made another show Solar Opposites that is very good too. honestly think i prefer it to Rick and Morty!

[-] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 1 points 3 months ago

I heard of that. Might check that one out instead.

[-] Trainguyrom@reddthat.com 12 points 3 months ago

Honestly, give it a watch and see if it's for you. Last I saw it was available to stream on Hulu (and uBlock Origin does a good job blocking Hulu's ads)

I found it enjoyable but I don't have a strong need to rewatch it. It's raunchy and absurdist, but does some cool SciFi things I haven't seen elsewhere. But it's way less deep and intellectual than some of its stans seem to think

[-] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 2 points 3 months ago

That sounds like a very fair description. Thank you.

[-] Jeanschyso@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

Does Hulu still block Canadians though?,

First season is decent but contains a lot of piss/fart/burp jokes; it calms down a bit afterwards. The really best seasons are 4 and onwards.

It’s fun to watch if you’re not too easily offended and like the genre.

To be fair, there's a lot of GREAT shows that needed a few episodes to a season to really find themselves.

Rick and Morty took half a season, Supernatural was a slog for over a season until it started leaning into having fun instead of just brooding, the Doctor Who Reboot's production values are distracting for the first season, on and on.

Honestly, the best shows seem to need to go on a bit of a vision quest early on.

[-] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

It got a LOT better in later seasons

[-] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 2 points 3 months ago

I watched the very first episode, it was pretty bad. Also the fan base are awful.

[-] cheers_queers@lemm.ee 2 points 3 months ago

it's easy to avoid the fandom. esp if you aren't on Reddit lol
