Lantern7 August 25, 2015 Share August 25, 2015 I think this picture was taken from the episode. I DVR episodes because I fear about overrun from Last Week Tonight, and I usually delete them without a repeat viewing, but I might check in to see that shot of Rick, Birdperson and Swanchy. Or whatever his name is . . . the Snarf expy that engaged in autoerotic asphyxiation. Helluva party. Link to comment
Ubiquitous August 26, 2015 Share August 26, 2015 What was it Birdguy said? "I don't know what humans eat so I put stuff I picked from my carpet onto your plate"? 1 Link to comment
Lantern7 August 31, 2015 Share August 31, 2015 You ever see Inception? Same basic concept, only with microverses instead of dreams. In the B-plot, Rick's spaceship is as big a dick in protecting Summer as Rick is. Oh, and mother *burp*-ing Stephen Colbert plays a pompous alien. Just all around awesomeness to be had.

Ubiquitous August 31, 2015 Share August 31, 2015 I'm not sure if it was the margaritas I had with supper, but I laughed my arse off watching this one! Rdmember, if you create a microverse that powers your car battery, make sure they can never do the same! 1 Link to comment
Kalliste August 31, 2015 Share August 31, 2015 Much better than last week. I loved the micro/mini/teeny-verse stuff and how they seemed oblivious (initially) that their idea had been Rick's. Poor scientist guy, he seemed nice, as well as their white blob universe. Link to comment
Ubiquitous August 31, 2015 Share August 31, 2015 A dimension that has the best ice cream and a Ball Fondlers movie seems worth the spider monsters. 1 Link to comment
nobodyyoucare August 31, 2015 Share August 31, 2015 But is it worth 11 9/11s? Did the spiders cause the 9/11s? Well its no longer the best since flies are now in it according to Rick. The White Blob Guy was on the path to being Rick and committed suicide upon seeing what he would become.. Now Tree People and White Blob Universes are destroyed. Morty seems to be growing that the universe is a very fucked up place and what appears evil isn't and what appears good isn't. This is the second Turbo Teen reference in Adult Swim programming I have seen. First one was in an episode of Robot Chicken. Link to comment

nobodyyoucare September 1, 2015 Share September 1, 2015 I wondered what trouble Jerry was getting into, but come to find out this was all to keep Jerry out of trouble. Well Rick would just get another Jerry if his got killed going outside. After all several Jerrys had been left and it is implied they took another Jerry. Link to comment
nobodyyoucare September 1, 2015 Share September 1, 2015 I laughed when the timelord who looked like a floating scrotum showed up. Ever watch the movie Stephen King's The langoliers? That is what the looks of the time lord is based on. Link to comment

Now Tree People and White Blob Universes are destroyed. I thought it was just a reaction to finding out that his respective God and that God's God were both assholes and his whole existence was effectively meaningless. I did find it funny that the Ship brokered a peace deal just to shut Summer up. 3 Link to comment

arc September 1, 2015 Share September 1, 2015 Inception-y plus a very small side dish of Avatar, since the tree people's planet seemed to have a glowing world-tree and also Rick and Zeep fought in vaguely Avatar-like mechs, complete with weirdly open cockpits. The transforming Morty! Oh my god. I really thought Rick was just fucking with Morty until the post-credits tag. Link to comment
wayne67 September 1, 2015 Share September 1, 2015 Well wouldn't seeing those two reinforce what I said about becoming a giant asshole and that he was on the same exact path as them? Let's split the difference and say it was both. He didn't want to be as big an asshole as those two and he didn't want to inflict that kind of existential crisis on a universe he would create just to power their planet once he realised what it felt like. I do wonder if time is slow in the microverse that Green Rick wouldn't have decades to plot a way to escape from his universe and into Rick's universe for payback. Link to comment

I do wonder if time is slow in the microverse that Green Rick wouldn't have decades to plot a way to escape from his universe and into Rick's universe for payback. Agreed lets split the difference. I think Rick said time flowed faster in the microverse in which the Green Dick was and it moved faster in white blob and faster in tree people world. Green Dick is probably more concerened about his universe being destroyed if the power stops flowing. After all Rick didn't need to create a universe to build an energy source he just wanted to be god. Link to comment

After all Rick didn't need to create a universe to build an energy source he just wanted to be god. My bad I meant that if Green Universe has time moving faster relative to Rick's universe than a decade could pass in that universe in the time it takes for Rick to have a nap. If White Blob Universe had Morty spend months there and what seemed like a day go by for Summer than it means that Green Guy can spend a year plotting his revenge, maybe using the technology that got him out of White Blob universe to get into Rick's universe. Or I may be overthinking this plot line. I'm still waiting to hear more about the evil Morty. I miss him. Link to comment

Rick doesn't really care about Jerry but if his died well there are plenty of spare Jerrys whose Ricks either left them or the Rick died after dropping off Jerry. Link to comment

Lantern7 September 14, 2015 Share September 14, 2015 This week: Rick rediscovers his youth in a younger clone of himself. Beth and Jerry go to another planet for marriage counseling. The latter winds up producing more bloodshed, even though the former involves killing a vampire called Coach Feratu. Say it out loud . . . it's as dumb as the vampire lord in the stinger realizes. 1 Link to comment
Ubiquitous September 14, 2015 Share September 14, 2015 (edited) I didn't like this one as much, but I did fid it amusing the premise of the entire ep, Rick making a young clone of himself to help Morty and Summer hunt and kill the vampire at school, all happened off-screen! "Well, we killed Coach Feratu! That was QUITE an adventure we had!". Edited September 14, 2015 by Ubiquitous 1 Link to comment
Kalliste September 14, 2015 Share September 14, 2015 Old Rick, ruining everything! Loved the guest starring of Jim Rash and Alex Hirsch. Also Redditors are taking this as a Bill from Gravity Falls appearance, not sure I'm convinced: Link to comment
nobodyyoucare September 14, 2015 Share September 14, 2015 True, I thought I heard the other Jerry's saying none of the ones who left never came back. Some of the Jerrys had been left because their Rick and mortys never came back. Two of the check boxes on the form Rick signed indicated that. Earth under threat was one at least that showed Rick was keeping Jerry safe. Meaning the Rick and Mortys were killed hence they couldn't get their Jerry back or the Jerry was left forever since he had annoyed Rick too much. When the Jerry returned and he told the others what it was like they said it was too much of a bother to escape. So odds are a number had done the same and come back. Link to comment
nobodyyoucare September 15, 2015 Share September 15, 2015 While gravity falls has had something to do with Rick and Morty that cameo of the stuff coming out of the portal claim was backed by photo evidence and Dan Harmon working on both scenes. Unless someone comes up with something more concrete I will just take this is as an example of wishful thinking. Link to comment

Lantern7 September 21, 2015 Share September 21, 2015 This week: more interdimensional TV fun. Also, Jerry tries to get out of sacrificing his penis to an alien voiced by Werner Herzog. Thank you, AVClub, for cluing me on that. Reminds me of the pilot I saw of The Jim Gaffigan Show, only with aliens. And penis-cutting instead of a vasectomy. Jerry winds up looking like a dork, but it's no worse than usual. ETA: Who is Jan Michael Vincent? I'm too lazy to look him up. Link to comment
Ubiquitous September 21, 2015 Share September 21, 2015 I was just about to ask who he is as well! ;-) Link to comment
arc September 21, 2015 Share September 21, 2015 I thought the episode was pretty poor for this show. I'm fine with a loose, improvisational feel to things, as with, say, the "Two Brothers" bit from Rixty Minutes. But this was an A-Plot entirely full of go-nowhere, bad improv. I think Jan-Michael Vincent was the star of Airwolf? I don't really know, but I remember a Community commentary track where Dan Harmon and company were joking about how wasted Yvette Nicole Brown got on set, almost like JMV and how shooting had to be arranged around JMV's relatively sober moments. (YNB is not a drunk, of course, it was just a bit they made up in the commentaries.) Link to comment
ZoqFotPik September 21, 2015 Share September 21, 2015 (edited) Who is Jan Michael Vincent? I'm too lazy to look him up. He's an actor. He was the lead on a show called 'Airwolf' about an high tech attack helicopter during the 80s. He was well known for coming to work loaded more often than not. Bryan Cranston appeared in one episode as a bad guy and one of his jobs on set was to wake him up for the scene. Edited September 21, 2015 by ZoqFotPik Link to comment
Kalliste September 21, 2015 Share September 21, 2015 Another interdimensional tv episode yeaah. Granted, I don't think it was as good as the first one and the Personal Space Show was just gross. Plus the other plot in this episode was meh in comparison to "Summer doesn't exist in all the other worlds" of the previous one. As someone that doesn't expect much of a storyline out of Rick and Morty it didn't bother me, it had a bunch of jokes and I liked it :) Would love to see what penis options Beth was deciding over for Jerry.

He was also a huge Disney star but I confuse which ones starred him and which starred Kurt Russell. I may have read too much alt.tasteless, but I expected Jerry to attempt to insert his penis into the heart cavity by himself, IYKWIMAITYD. I am disappointed we didn't see Ball Fondlers but was that someone from the gerbils-living-people's-butt behind them in the waiting room? 1 Link to comment
ZoqFotPik September 21, 2015 Share September 21, 2015 Wow I didn't realize JMV's health had deteriorated to that point! but was that someone from the gerbils-living-people's-butt behind them in the waiting room? Yes, one the gerbils is in the waiting room while they are watching the 'Personal Space Show'. 1 Link to comment
Matt K September 21, 2015 Share September 21, 2015 I liked it but it was definitely in my bottom 5 R&M episodes. It's tough because there was nothing to really tie in the TV bits to the actual episodes unlike the original. Link to comment

nobodyyoucare September 21, 2015 Share September 21, 2015 They had a commercial about an ice cream place that had the ice cream come out of buttholes. Jan Michael Vincent has a fairly long list of films and tv work despite most people not knowing who he is. Looking at his credits I recognized not only Airwolf but Damnation Alley (a scifi post apoc film in which a custom 12 wheeled (using trinary wheel system so each wheel base has three wheels instead of one allowing it to climb boulders, normally only eight wheels touch the ground) armored amphibious personal carrier through the wasteland of the US to a radiation and hazard free zone) There was also another film or two I have heard about. well I saw some of Alienator. Search b-movie review websites for both films. You may want to watch either or both as a guilty pleasure. Link to comment
