Can Morty stop being a baby and help produce a hit song?
But there are those occasional episodes that never bother to dial down the wackiness.
This isnt a terrible thing, really.
Get Schwifty isnt much like Ricksy Business because, rickdiculous though it is, its a lot more complicated.
I do love the wayRick and Mortyoperates.
Creator Justin Roiland has said the goal is to relentlessly chuck fresh nonsense at the audience.
It doesnt all quite hold together, however.
Still, its also what makes very little of it stick.

I guess the big problem here is the episode wants to have it both ways.
Ultimately, the best thing about Get Schwifty is some of the jokes.
I also couldnt help but laugh at the lyrics to Get Schwifty.
I did not anticipate it being about shitting on floors.
And just the giant head thundering SHOW ME WHAT YOU GOT made me all a-giggle.
But Get Schwifty is let down by a plot thats overly complex and too goofball to take seriously.
They just do a better job of developing and building to whatever tone they want to convey.
