Harry Situation Reviews: Rick and Morty Season 3
Ah geez, it's the end of the third season of Rick and Morty. Time to talk about it.
That's right Season 3 of the popular scifi animated series Rick and Morty has wrapped up, and now's the best time to discuss what went on in this long awaited season. Like in my other TV reviews, I'm going to be talking about events and episodes that stood out to me and there will be spoilers ahead. If you haven't watched the third season or have never watched Rick & Morty, get on that right now because this is no longer spoiler safe.
First of all, we last saw Rick going togalactic federation prison and Summer and Morty attempt to rescue him only to be captured by the Citadel of Ricks, which is a bunch of multiverse versions of different Ricks and ladee-da. Luckily Rick, being the insane boozed-up genius that he is, manages to bust out and bring down the Citadel. But get this, all of this shit that went on was part of Rick's ulterior motive to get rid of Morty's father Jerry because Rick doesn't like him. I mean yeah I'm not fond of Jerry either but this is fucking hardcore. But what should I expect? It's fucking Rick Sanchez.
Skipping a couple episodes in — keep in mind that there's only 10 episodes per season — we get to hands down my favorite episode of the entire series, Pickle Rick. What's it about? Rick turns himself into pickle. That's it! How do make an episode about that? I don't how but the fucking creators found a way, and it is the most fucking, fuckton of fucking awesomeness they ever put into a single episode. PICKLE RIIIIIICK!!!!
Then we get an episode about Rick and Jerry spending time together. RICK AND JERRY EPISODE! This is a great episode not because Rick and Jerry really have a great moment to share their feelings on the matter, but it's got the most trippiest scene ever in a TV series. Go check that shit out on YouTube or something.
And then there's this other episode that focuses the life of all the Ricks and Mortys from different universes at the Citadel, and holy crap there is some good story telling here. There's even nods to movies like Training Day and Stand By Me. While there are three different stories that don't connect at all, but they all come together perfect in what appears a brilliantly written episode. BTW, holy shit Evil Morty returns! I knew that guy would be back, and now he's been elected president of all the Ricks and Mortys. Now I want a confrontation between him and the Rick and Morty we're familiar with. I mean if anyone could actually outsmart Rick it is Evil Morty.
Next episode is titled the ABC's of Beth and Beth, Morty's mother, has a dark realization. Throughout the series she defends her father Rick but it's now she realizes she's just a homicidal as he is. Now she's left wondering who she is, to which Rick's solution is to create a perfect clone of her with all memories so his daughter can go on some self discovery tour. While the episode doesn't give a clear view of what decision Beth made, since she is there eating with her family, I'm willing to place all bets that that Beth we are seeing right now is a clone. I mean anyone in her position would take this opportunity, right?
And now we arrive at the season finale with Rick squaring off against the U.S. President, voiced by Keith David no less (god I would go gay for that voice), after Rick and Morty, and I quote, blew off America. And this leads to an epic showdown between the two. This is basically a fight of egos and it was entertaining as hell to watch. Oh and I guess Beth (Clone Beth) and Jerry get back together and Mr. Poopybutthole makes an appearance in the after-credits but whatever.
What you think the details I gave away seem brief? Well what about sex with your mom? OH! GODDAMN! You just got burned, bitch! That's right, I don't need to be detailed. Shit I don't need to have proper grammer either. I'm like Siskel and Ebert on this motherfucker! I can be vague as I want like Prometheus. Shit I don't even have to include a grading scale this time! It's Rick and Morty, you should be watching that right. I don't have to do anything.
Hell if you're not gonna *urrp* not gonna watch Rick and Morty, then you should send some money to Puerto Rico because Trump's not gonna do dick. Send some money to Puerto Ricans, not to that asshole motherfucker Joel Osteen, who closed his doors to refugees because he eats poop!
What I can't say this shit? Wha *urrp* wha, what's Prose gonna do to me? I make the Reviews Portal my bitch. I own it like a mail order bride. Wha, are they gonna make this more buggy? Ever stop to consider that they made it buggy because they're hiding all the Mulan Szechuan sause for McDonald's McNuggets? That's what this has all been about! Tha *urrp* that Szechuan McNugget sauce that was used to promote Mulan. Rick mentioned it in the first episode this season and now I really what goddamn sause. I WANT THAT MULAN SZECHUAN MCNUGGET SAAAAAAAUUUCE!!!
Final Grade: A+
So those are my thoughts on Rick and Morty Season 3. Have you seen it? What were your thoughts on it? Do you want some Mulan Szechuan sauce too? Please be kind, leave a like and comment, and check back for more reviews on Prose!
