Symptom 74: Back to C137 — Raving Lunatic Media

Let the Ricksanity begin. Grab your portal gun because this week its Rick and Morty. This show is a perfect example of the fun, mind bending and meaningful story telling that can happen when soft sic-fi is combined with animation and a 22 minute run time.

Yes, the show goes after the low hanging comedic fruit. Yes, the animation is bad. Who cares. The story telling is solid, the comedy is excellent, the characters grow and the soft science fiction format allows mind bleepery such as multiple dimensions, the council of Rick's, infinite Rick's, since the science functions as magic anything is on the table.

We wrap up this show with a discussion of the time that elapses between seasons and our hopes/fears for the future of this series.
