Re: Rick and Morty: The Hypothesis of Contradiction

Rick and Morty is the one time ever that I got turned off a show by vocal parts of the fanbase and that's saying something as I survived being a pony fan from around when s1 had just finished to when the Glimmer really started taking over. I was always of the opinion that one's choice of entertainment shouldn't ever be a value judgement and certainly shouldn't be used to categorise/dismiss other's. Just because say one brony does something unfortunate with a jar then that doesn't tar and feather other's who say just think that Trixie needs more love.
Here though it just got way too much to ignore.
Made me take a good long look at the show and it was around Pickle Rick was when I checked out. The pandering to that cynical, bleak world view I can't stand just got to much for me along with the humour just getting repetitive.
There's definitely still value to be found in S1, especially the Meseeks, but that's about it.
Nostalgia Critic? No value to be found whatsoever, and I can't believe I ever found him entertaining (and I did). How anyone still consumes his content is beyond me.
