My homies made me binge the entire first season and the second season up to Get Schwifty a couple of weeks ago after I neglected to start watching it on my own. In highschool I was totally burnt out on the ultra-hyper look-how-weird-I-am animated series style dominated by Egoraptor, OneyNG, ADHD, and all of those others dudes on YouTube. So any time I get a whiff of that sort of approach to animation it immediately turns me off and I avoid it, which is unfortunate and unfair, because a lot of these animated series are actually pretty good, like Rick & Morty (and Apollo Gauntlet). Because of this bias I don't seem to get as much out of Rick & Morty as most people do but I have to admit that it's pretty damn clever most of the time. A Rickle In Time, Lawnmower Dog, Total Rickall, Rixty Minutes, Meeseeks & Destroy, and a couple other episodes with the exaggerated nods to sci-fi were all great.
More of Rick's devices and less of Jerry, Beth, and Summer, please.

The only thing I kind of wish the show would tone down on is Jerry and Beth's love/hate relationship due to Beth's pregnancy with Summer. It seemed like they slowly built towards some kind of resolution in Rixty Minutes but every now and then it pops back up. Personally I'd prefer to see more Rick/ Summer episodes because it's always a fun dynamic and it gives Summer a chance to shed her boring teenage girl stereotype. I mean the latest episode was pretty funny as she was stuck in the car and having to witness emotionally scarring incidents, but I would like to see more of her and Rick. Actually a Rick/Beth adventure episode would be even more funny because it would allow for some more backstory on why Rick ran out on his wife and daughter and what brought him back into her life.

Yeah afaik Beth is the only character that we have yet to see out on some wild adventure in space. The episode with Jerry in that daycare was hilarious, getting these generally boring people out into these wild scenarios is a hell of a lot more interesting than using the love/hate subplot over and over again. Definitely one of my few complaints with the show

Ive seen one eps of it, the one Rick hooks the tv to get channels from parallel universes.
It was pretty good. I can see why ppl are raving about it. im not really that interested in the show to seek it out but if im watching Tv and the show happens to be on i'll watch it.

Not that there was something explicitly wrong with it, but it felt overall forced and uncreative.
