The episode was pretty funny. “Pickle Rick” is a mild example of “L0l Randumz Xd” humor, because the reaction of literally every other character is that it’s underwhelming and unfunny. the rest of the episode has good jokes, references, super fluid action and gore.
Edit: I don’t want this on the front page while US-Iran stuff is going down.
I think it was the Schezwan sauce comeback where someone made a scene at a McDonalds exclaiming the quote “I’m Pickle Rick”.
The show, aside from Roiland, is OK. I don’t understand the big deal before or since then around the show.
