To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ
to understand Rick and Morty. The humor
is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp
of theoretical physics most of the jokes will
go over a typical viewer's head. There's
also Rick's nihilistic outlook, which is
deftly woven into his characterization -
his personal philosophy draws heavily
from Narodnaya Volya literature, for
instance. The fans understand this stuff;
they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to
realize that they're not just funny- they
say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Rick and Morty truly ARE idiots- of course they
wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humor
in Rick's existential catchphrase "Wubba
Lubba Dub Dub," which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev's Russian epic
Fathers and Sons I'm smirking right now
just imagining one of those simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as
Dan Harmon's genius unfolds itself on
their television screens.
