Rick and Morty - Série 1

What's the big deal? I started the first episode and had to double-check if I was actually watching the right one. The show throws you into Rick and Morty’s world so fast that I struggled to keep up with the chaotic storytelling at first. That chaotic energy is clearly a signature of the series, and it took me a while to get used to it in the first season. It’s like a mashup of The Simpsons (family dynamics), South Park (vulgarity), and Futurama (sci-fi and fantasy themes), all loaded with pop culture references that seem to be a big part of its appeal. It hasn't fully clicked for me yet, but I’ll give the second season a shot. (25.07.2021)

I was avoiding Rick and Morty for a long time due to its simple and poor animation, but I finally broke. An unbelievably powerful joyride full of smart and often subversive plots. Unpredictability, uncompromising one-liners and cruel lessons. Even the destruction of the fourth wall works great. Some part miss the target, but usually it’s a bullseye. (25.08.2021)

After the first season, I'm absolutely thrilled. Since I didn’t know what I was in for, I was slightly thrown off by the first episode. I quickly recovered in the second episode and by the end of the season I was enjoying all the things that are denied to me in the so-called politically correct films and shows. The most fitting description I can think of is: mind-blowing. (07.11.2017)
