Okay, Let's Talk About That *One* Rick and Morty Episode...
Remember Rick and Morty Season 5 Episode 9? You know, the one everyone either loved or passionately disliked? Let's dive in.
I’m ready to admit it. I actually enjoyed it. Prepare for my super unpopular opinion.
The Turkey Stuff...Was Weird, Right?
Yeah, the whole Turkey Morty and Turkey Rick thing was...a lot. It was a bizarre, slightly unsettling parody of Thanksgiving.
And the President showing up? Peak *Rick and Morty* randomness. Sometimes, you just gotta roll with it.
But admit it, you chuckled at least once. Maybe when they started fighting crime dressed as turkeys?
Morty's Whole Space Sperm Adventure
Okay, let's get this straight: the whole space sperm thing was…intense. Nobody asked for that.
Was it hilarious? Absolutely. Was it deeply unsettling? You bet. Did I look away? Maybe.
But you gotta admit, Morty getting space pregnant and giving birth to a *space baby* that aged rapidly? That’s classic Rick and Morty.
The Meta Commentary: Did It Land?
Season 5 leaned hard into meta commentary. Episode 9 wasn't any different.
Did the show make fun of itself too much? Some viewers think so. But Rick acknowledging the absurdity? That's their bread and butter.
I personally think it was pretty funny. I love it when shows make fun of themselves.
The Problem with Being *Too* Smart
Here’s my theory: maybe Rick and Morty is *too* smart for its own good sometimes. Maybe that’s why some episodes, like this one, get polarizing reactions.
We expect genius, groundbreaking humor. When we get…turkey people, it’s a shock.
But isn't that part of the fun? The unpredictable, sometimes nonsensical ride?
Unpopular Opinion: It Was A Good Episode
Okay, I said it. I think Rick and Morty season 5 episode 9 was good. Not perfect, but good.
It was weird, gross, and totally off the rails. But it was memorable.
And isn't that what we really want from Rick and Morty? To be entertained, even if we're slightly disturbed?
But What Did *You* Think?
I'm sure many of you disagree. That's totally fine.
Did you love the episode? Hate it? Think I'm completely out of my mind?
Let's hear your opinions. Maybe together, we can unravel the mysteries of Turkey Rick.
One Last Thought...
Look, *Rick and Morty* isn't always going to hit it out of the park. That's just the nature of the show.
But even the "bad" episodes usually have something worthwhile. A joke, a weird concept, a moment of existential dread.
So, let's appreciate the whole ride, even the bumpy parts. And maybe, just maybe, embrace the Turkey Rick within us all.
