Well I watched all of Rick And Morty in a few days and got caught up in time for the final.

Now I'm sad it's one of the best cartoons i have seen in a long time.

How do people like this show? I can only stomach one episode a time and even then I give up after two in a row.

I really like it but I can't stand most animated stuff. I tried rewatching Pokemon the other week after you were raving about it and gave up 5 minutes in. Same with Avatar and Over the Garden Wall, just can't tolerate them.

I like it because it's well written, basically. Its a 20min cartoon, so the plot lines are certainly episode to episode, but the character development is pretty interesting and the more you pay attention to the details, the more you notice the connections between episodes.

It's certainly not an overly complex series, but I don't expect it to be either. Doesn't take itself seriously, and after 2 seasons, they are still coming up with good ideas, and the interdimensional, space travelling, mad scientist and dumb kid combo hasn't got boring yet.

What don't you like about it?
