Why is rick and morty 1 of the best show ever?
in my opinion is because they tell you about an infinity posibilites of answer to your self in what we are and what we should become.
Rick and Morty, which depicts the adventures of Morty, a normal 14-year-old boy, and Rick, his mad scientist grandfather, might be most easily described as a foul-mouthed homage to Back to the Future, but it's even more reminiscent of comedian John Mulaney's routine about it. "It's a very weird movie," Mulaney says. "Marty McFly is a high school student whose best friend is a disgraced nuclear physicist. And, I shit you not, they never explain how they became friends. They never explain it. Not even in a lazy way."
1 of the most amazing memories from this cartoon is the sentences "Nobody exists on purpose, nobody belongs anywhere, everybody's gonna die," 14-year-old Morty tells his sister on Cartoon Network's Rick and Morty.
But Back to the Future is all about maintaining the order that time travel disrupts: Marty has to keep his family intact or risk losing his own existence. Back to the Future plays with the possibilities of two competing timelines. Rick and Morty, whose mad scientist has a portal gun capable of taking him on adventures across infinite dimensions, revels in its premise's potential for endless chaos.
Rick is as complex and world-weary as Back to the Future's Doc Brown might have been, in an alternate dimension where the screenplay landed on Oliver Stone's desk instead of Steven Spielberg's. If there's a common thread in Rick and Morty's adventures — which include Morty accidentally impregnating an alien robot and Rick installing an interdimensional cable box on the family TV — it's that Morty wants to do the right thing, while Rick embraces fleeting pleasure and perpetual chaos. "You're a monster!" Morty tells Rick in the show's pilot episode, after one of Rick's terrifying adventures goes awry, putting his grandson's life at risk. "You're like Hitler," Morty says, "but even Hitler cared about Germany. Or something." To Morty, and likely to many viewers, the fact that Rick doesn't care about anything — crave any results, seek any treasure, quest after any knowledge — makes him far more frightening than any villainous scheme ever could.
But Rick also doesn't seem to have much of a choice. As the show's worldview expands, we watch Rick and Morty meet infinite other Ricks and Mortys, and, in one fearlessly brutal episode, as Rick and Morty accidentally destroy their world (because of love and mutated praying mantises — long story) — we see them take the places of a recently deceased Rick and Morty in another dimension. The question the show asks, implicitly, is whether we are watching the same Rick and Morty from episode to episode — and why that question matters to us as viewers.
It would be stating the painfully obvious to say that we live in an age of anxiety. The world may not be any bloodier now than it was a hundred years ago, but now we can see that bloodshed in HD, on a thousand different channels, as we scroll through our Facebook and Twitter feeds, as we look up momentarily at the screens in bars and restaurants and even on gas pumps. We can't travel from dimension to dimension (well, I shouldn't speak for everyone, but I can't), but each day allows us to see a thousand different worlds' worth of violence and splendor. It's hard to find our place in the scheme of things. It's hard for Americans to get past the notion not that our nation has lost its way, but that we have grown less and less able to ignore its fundamental flaws. It's hard — though perhaps not hard enough — to escape the reality that our planet will only sustain our existence for so much longer, and that our species' extinction, when it comes, will be our own doing. What is left for us in a world where all our achievements will be lost, where our empires will crumble to dust, and where our prayers for survival seem doomed to go unheard?
Well, we still have cartoons. And cartoon characters seem to know something that we have long struggled with: not just that Wile E. Coyote will never catch the Road Runner, but that this was never the point. We're in an endless desert where the road never takes us to a real destination and our best-laid plans lead only to our own destruction. In the world of cartoons, there is nothing to do but embrace nihilism: to realize that the point of existence is to stop searching for a point, and accept the chaos of the moment.
Rick and Morty speaks to its viewers by making this acceptance easier: Its animation is hyper-violent at times, and ornately beautiful at others — and sometimes both. Its characters are deprived of dignified deaths or meaningful character arcs, but man, do they have fun. Their lives aren't about futurity, but about accepting the fragile joys each moment can bring — and though they live in a cartoon world, it is also recognizably our own.
