These shoes let them walk on walls when the Bureaucrats cornered them. Even Rick recognized him for that. Also in season 2, Morty was able to recognize the Parasites’ weakness, all while Rick. Rick and Morty is an American adult animated science fiction sitcom created by Justin Roiland and Dan Harmon for Cartoon Network's late-night programming block Adult Swim.The series follows the misadventures of cynical mad scientist Rick Sanchez and his good-hearted but fretful grandson Morty Smith, who split their time between domestic life and interdimensional adventures.
The show stars Rick Sanchez, an alcoholic, sociopathic super-intelligent galactic criminal as he drags his grandson Morty Smith through parallel dimensions and alternate universes in a quest for… Well, whateverRick decides is worth his time.
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this show not be for viewers under the age of at least 16. The show’s themes range from alcoholism to murder, terrorism, suicide, and self-hatred.
That being said, it is hilarious.
The show toys with some complex themes like existentialism and nihilism through the fact that there are an unlimited number of other universes with otherRicks and otherMorties, so many so that in order to hide from their respective Galactic Governments’ influence, there is a Council of Ricks that coordinate themselves in secret.
If there’s just another version of you out there, exactly like you, what importance do you have? [NOTE, heavy spoiler for that link.]
Kind of heavy for a cartoon, isn’t it? So why does my kid love it?
The show is also littered with fart jokes, poop jokes, and crude sex jokes too. Don’t go thinking it’s all intellectual.
Secondly, the comedy is deliciously dark. I can’t speak for every person of the 18-35 age demographic, but a common form of humor right now is humor that draws from dark irony, horrible situations and peoples’ ability to be unaffected, and laughing in the face of dread. Rick is a prime example of all three of these tropes.
In separate situations, Rick has:
1) Told Morty to shoot bug-like aliens, referring to them as ‘robots’ until Morty sees one bleed. Rick clarifies that the aliens are bureaucrats, and that’s basically the same thing.
2) Killed an entire ship of aliens by tricking them into thinking they had gained his recipe for ‘concentrated dark matter’ when in reality it was an explosive substance.
3) Created a robot with the single purpose of passing the butter, and gave it enough sentience for it to have an existential crisis over this fact.
Rick and Morty is surreal, but it also manages to take the time to talk about very real issues, such as the devolving marriage of Morty’s parents over the course of the first two seasons. Season 3 delves into themes of poor and good coping mechanisms for such a scenario.
The show has spawned dozens upon dozens of memes, including “I’M MR.MEESEEKS, LOOK AT ME! “, Wubba Lubba Dub Dub! [Which turns out to mean “I am in great pain, please help me”] “Get Schwifty”, Szechuan Sauce and practically every clip from the episodes Interdimensional Cable1 and 2. Notably, the dialogue for both of those episodes was largely improvised in the recording studio by Justin Roiland, who happens to voice Rick, Morty, and plenty of other characters.
My favourite clip from those last two is “Ants In My Eyes Johnson’s Electronics”.

All in all, Rick and Morty is a hilariously quotable show about coping with depression, sci-fi adventuring, and the consequences of life.
