Rick and Morty Season 2 is finally here.
Look, I dont feel that bad about not loving this one.
The creators themselves have already said they think it may very well be theworst episode of the season.
I agree entirely with this, but c’mon understand that I dont think its a bad episode.
In fact, I quite admire it, but more in concept than execution.

It makes for some weird audiovisual stuff, too.
And again, I admire it all.
This is a bizarre, ballsy thing to put on television, especially for a season premiere.
The problem with A Rickle in Time is its so concept-heavy it doesnt have much room for comedy.
Also, the already-complicated visual of the splitscreen gimmick means there arent many cuts.
But in execution, A Rickle in Time is actually more likeCommunitys Digital Estate Planning.
Still, the uncertain timelines A-plot in Rickle is at least novel.
Really, all the best stuff shows up at the end.
Jerry and Beths deer surgery plot is dead on arrival, too.
