Roiland’s new show solar opposites also drops fully on Hulu this month.

Don’t think it’s gonna be as great as R&M but it has potential to play that simpsons/family guy routine

If the quarentine is what it took to get Harmon and Roiland to sit down and actually produce new episodes, then this will all be worth it.

It’s not. These were in the can but split up from the last batch by CC, I believe.

This I think the 3 seasons they got were like 10-12 each season, then this one got split up into a fall half and spring half...

How collaborative is the animation process? Obviously live action actors can’t work right now, but writers can.  Can animators knock out new episodes at home? 
 

 

Seems like the voice over stuff cold be handled with distancing. Especially since Roiland does the main 2

Nothing is "hand drawn" anymore. The original character might be, but that's scanned into a computer and away we go.

Mostly digital, but there’s still some holdouts here and there.

Little article about how it was still being hand-drawn in South Korea (farmed our from the US), but even they were transitioning to digital.

ISWYDT.

First ep back was good.

 

I almost died laughing at the Bechdel test, but it faded from there.

They take the dingle bop and they push it through the grumbo, where the fleeb is rubbed against it. It's important that the fleeb is rubbed, because the fleeb has all the fleeb juice.

Then, a schlami shows up, and he rubs it...and spits on it.

They cut the fleeb. There's several hizzards in the way.

The blamfs rub against the chumbles, and the...plubis, and grumbo are shaved away.

That leaves you with...a regular old episode.

There were a couple of good jokes in that one, but I definitely needed to be under the influence of something to enjoy it more. That one was a trip. The Wendy's commercial at the beginning was pretty great. 

How were they referring to the various characters with the ripped abs that they called $#@ cutters? I don't watch the uncensored version (too lazy to do anything but DVR...) so can someone who streams it fill me in?

Cum gutters. So ripped, the cum runs down one’s Apollo’s belt (the V) like water running down gutters 

I’ve never heard that outside of gay vernacular though. 

Ahh, I see. All I could think of was "cunt cutters" like they're so ripped that they're abrasive to women who might grind on the abs of steel or something, but that didn't seem to make too much sense...

i didn't want to be the one to say it since the last time i criticized this show people ran to bellmont and asked immamac to ban me because of it. this season has sucked, and i'm sure i'm not alone when i say that this was my fear when i heard that they were signing up for a gazillion more episodes and then disappearing for a year and a half or whatever before coming back with new stuff. and then to top it off they only release five (really underwhelming) episodes at a time. it's been so bad that i had to unfollow the Rick and Morty subreddit because it's *nothing* but, "you son of bitch; i'm in!" memes, which were never funny to begin with. whatever mojo they had with seasons 1-3 has been lost, and i hope they can somehow recapture it, because if not, then is going to become Community 2.0 where everyone just acts like the show ended after 3 seasons even though it didn't.

I liked the first half. I did not like this week’s episode 

I liked the heist episode this season. But yeah, so far I haven't rewatched episodes in season 4 like I did the previous seasons.

It's like they read on the Internet that R&M was a clever show so now they're going out of their way to try and be extra clever....and it doesn't work.

I'm not ready to say it's all down hill from here (yet), but there a guy in a black jacket and water skis warming up.

Also, wtf happened to the rest of the family? And what happened to storylines involving their actual home/school/city/earth? 

I loved it, but I always enjoy anything which questions the meaning of reality. I'm a huge Philip K Dick fan, and this was definitely something that would be in his wheelhouse.

This is where I'm at.  We re-watched episode 5 right before the new one dropped on Sunday, and the whole Snake world thing was fucking hilarious. "STAY IN THE FUCKING CAR MORTY!!!" 

S4 Episode 1 - The one with all the parallel universes was fantastic. Top notch R&M that was. 

Rick's personal Toilet episode was good. The dating app sub-plot was pretty funny. 

Heist episode was probably the best of the season so far. "YOUR BOOS MEAN NOTHING TO ME, I'VE SEEN WHAT MAKES YOU CHEER!"

can't remember what the other one was off the top of my head, but 4 out of 5 ain't bad. I would rewatch all of those any day.

Heist episode is maybe one of my favorite episodes of R&M. 

For reference it was:

Death crystals and Rick clone multiverse
Rick's personal toilet
Heist
Morty's dragon and the talking cat
The snakes

I feel horrible for saying this, but I doubt we will see anything during the rest of however long the series continues, that will be as funny as the snake episode.

Ah yes, I forgot about the dragon episode. Wasn't a big fan of it at the time, but I haven't rewatched it yet. I have seen the other 4 at least 3 times each, they are excellent. 

Aside:  I watched the first couple of eps of the new roiland show on Hulu (they put them all up at once it looks like) and it felt like a rick and morty knock-off. The two main characters, at least one voiced by roiland so he can’t help but sound like rick, plus nuclear family side stories.

Good enough or what?

Meh. That was pretty bad. They've certainly lost their edge.

This show is terrible. Really lazy writing.

Chris Parnell and Sarah Chalke gonna win some Emmy's for their performances this season. 

Another shitty fucking episode. Over a two year break and they come up with this shit? These are episodes you'd expect to see in a season 6 or 7 after they've already run out of ideas, but nope here they are.

the last minute or two of the episode was the only time i laughed. still can't explain why they've abandoned the majority of the cast/earth in general. 

Same here, Derka. A Jerry/American Beauty ep would have sounded amazing a couple of years ago. Now I wonder how they'd get it to fall flat.

I didn't really enjoy the episode, but I think it's the opposite of "lazy" writing. They seem to be trying really hard for over the top wtf stuff and being super meta. A little too hard in the last episode. I actually liked the train episode but it was pretty obvious it was meant to be a total mindfuck so much so that I get why it was not liked by many. 

Apparently I suck at writing sarcasm. I liked the episode.
