The writing for the show is far and above some of the best humor an Adult Swim program has delivered in years. The great thing about the progression of the Rick and Morty series is that these aren’t just self-contained adventures. If something drastic occurs in an episode that will have a lasting effect on the rest of the series. One such example comes from an episode called “Rick Potion No. 9” where Rick creates at love serum that accidentally turns the entire population into horrible-looking monsters. Feeling their world lost, Rick decides to move himself and Morty to an alternate universe where their parallel universe-selves die before the outbreak occurs and Rick and Morty take over their lives, but not before having to bury their deceased selves in graves in the backyard. A few episodes later, Morty recalls that horrible event with his sister telling her of the misadventure.
