Rick & Morty. Then the whole szechuan sauce thing happened and I can't look at any content from that show without cringing. LOOK GUYS IM PICKLE RI-stop please it's not funny.
There’s a few shows where the fan base have made it so insufferable that I don’t want to even watch the show . But Rick and Morty are King in this category, the worst fans
The "community" is insufferable, but the show is solid. You might like Solar Opposites. The wall substory is amazing. Really good voice actors, can feel the tension and emotions in the voices
The wall substory is a wild ride
Is there even still any Rick and morty fans left in the wild? After the whole case against one of the voice actors I never see them around too much anymore.
I like Rick and Morty, but I have enough self awareness to know that Rick is not a role model.
My kid wanted to watch it together, and I was like, that's fine as long as you let me tell you that Rick isn't always right and he's not the hero.
Yeah, it's funny because of how terrible everyone is. I'm laughing because it's outrageous, not because the characters are going through relatable hijinks.
Justin Roiland wasn't just the voice actor for Rick, Morty, and various other roles, he was the co-creator, writer, and executive producer of the show alongside Dan Harmon. The whole thing is very much Roiland's baby, and even after it came out that he's an abuser and predator and the show fired him it continues to be his celebrated legacy.
Fuck that guy and his stupid show.
Roiland is a co-creator, but it is very obvious that Dan Harmon took over the show for the better.
Hell, the takeover happened while Roiland was still voicing Rick, so it isn't like something important was lost after Roiland was fired.
I initially found that show a bit interesting, but I found myself feeling more and more cringey about what the show was churning out. I outgrew the whole thing just as the sauce thing was happening
It later became well known what an actual piece of shit Justin Roiland is, and I felt pretty glad not to have been stuck in that fandom still feeling like his work was of any importance to me.
Don't even get me started about the SA scene(s?), especially the grape-man. I try not to judge people too harshly by their choice of mindless entertainment, but if you found that funny, or at least continue to find it funny, I don't think I can take you seriously.
Really triggered my partners PTSD too, so I wasn't surprised at all when the Rolland stuff came to light.
