The female characters in this show are really well written too, for the little screentime they get. Well, not Jessica maybe, but we haven't seen much of her at this point.

Rick burping is literally my favorite thing in the show. I actually miss it when he doesn't do it for awhile. It's just so unique in terms of dialogue character traits. Just the overall stumbling and stammering in all the dialogue I think is fantastic. I work in audio, specifically location sound recording and dialogue editing. I'm sure this affects my opinion on the matter.

The way Rick talks and says "Morty" all the time is half the reason I like this show. He just doesn't stop.

Chiming in on the love for the stuttering and other vocal tics. Sometimes I crack up just because of their speech patterns-- even when there's no joke.

The pilot with rick constantly bleaching got annoying after the opening it worked in the opening cause rick was drunk and gonna kill humanity. when rick is sober trying to explain stuff it was distracting.

Honestly were it not for the jelly bean king (and the offhand rape jokes by Rick) I don't think it would necessarily be a problem with the tumblr crew though they'll always find something to complain about. Other than Morty's redhead crush who doesn't have much agency BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH the other female (okay according to someone in the Frozen thread I need to stop using this word because it's bad mkay m'lady) characters are actually decently written if not given as much screen time (moreso Summer).

Yeah I'd like to see more of Summer too. I figured she'd play the airheaded, self-centered teenage girl role, but she's actually turned out to be pretty smart and compassionate. It's refereshing to see that. It's best not to even bother thinking about what tumblr thinks. Seriously. I scrolled through the 'rick and morty' tag today and, well... Can't say I'm surprised but I really wish I hadn't seen what I did. Also, just try not to use 'female' when your referring to an individual. You wouldn't say "That male over there" right? It just comes across as clinical and weird which is probably why they mentioned it. Also MRAs do it all the time and the less you(or anyone) have in common with them, the better.

Summer is definitely smarter than she first appears in a funny kind of way. (Jerry about to take off Snuffles'/Snowball's braniac helmet in "Lawnmower Dog") Summer: Whoa dad, you can't, like, endow a creature with sentience and then rip it away! Jerry: Why not? Summer: I dunno, it's Indian Giving?

Yeah having Summer on one of the adventures would be interesting like a twisted Gravity Falls but knowing that the show's plots are mainly to treat Morty as a whipping boy for trauma who knows

I'm pretty sure the next episode is going to be Summer-centric: It's titled "Raising Gazorpazorp". Raising implies helping something grow up, and Gazorpazorp sounds like the name of some sort of other worldly monster.In the opening credits we see random clips from various episodes, some of which have yet to air. One of the clips (the last one, just before the title pops up) shows Summer holding a baby cthulhu like monster in a spaceship with Rick and Morty. So, yeah, if my prediction is correct (and I hope it is) we're about to get an episode with Summer taking care of a lovecraftion horror for some reason and it'll be equal parts and Space Cadet Omoly fucked around with this message at 08:24 on Feb 4, 2014 |

I think Summer is smarter than she lets on. She often seems to be the one doing the practical thing.

Plus she had a very impressive ability to recreate JAWS for someone in a post-apocalyptic scenario.

I'm agreeing that unfortunately I don't know many girls who would enjoy this show, that's all. There's probably fewer of us than them. I'm also a massive hipster apparently. But if popularity leads to shirts, I'll buy one!! I was impressed at Rick calling Morty out on being a little creepy creep person too actually- You'd think a drunken jackass would make cheap shots at girls but he hasn't once. Sexism isn't really a funny joke, anymore, I guess, I put up with it in so many other shows it's interesting when it's missing and it's refreshing to not see anything fall back on that for inexpensive humor!

my2k posted:Sorry I said "female friends" instead of woman friends or girl friends I guess? You don't have to tell me that, haha, I hate then add much as anyone but let's not give them a monopoly on the word. We're all adults here hopefully. The female thing was a reply to Alan Smithee, not you. Sorry about the confusion! I agree with you on that last paragraph. Especially since this is an Adult Swim show, and AS really loves that lovely Robot Chicken style humor.

It helps that Rick as a character seems more like someone who was forged into his personality through adversity, not because he was an inherently bad person. I kind-of want someone to show the Love Potion episode to David Cronenberg now just to see if he chuckles or not at the use of his last name as a noun/verb.

Pick posted:I think Summer is smarter than she lets on. She often seems to be the one doing the practical thing. Summer already seems smart, or at least very confident. She handles Rick much smoother than the rest of her family. She’s not trying to be nice to him like her mother, she doesn’t let him get under her skin like her father, and she’s not afraid or intimidated by him like Morty. When she calls him a dick it’s not because she’s upset or trying to be mean, she’s just stating a fact. Rick goes on to say that her opinion means very little to him, but it’s pretty obvious she doesn’t care much about his opinion either. e: Alan Smithee posted:Wtf no Archer either, is this like a seasonal thing Kind of. They're putting off airing new episodes of Archer because of the winter Olympics.

Justin Roiland tweeted that the show returns March 10th. I know it sucks to wait a long time but I think Adult Swim realizes it has a hit on its hands and wants to get more started right away, and space out the distance between seasons.

Is Rick and Morty kind of a one-or-two-man show as far as the writing and producing goes? You gotta cut those shows some slack on the delays.

It looks like there's 6 or 7 writers and the same amount of directors this season. I don't blame the producers for the wait, really a month when a lot of other shows are taking a break because of the Olympics anyway isn't a big deal at all.
