With episode 3, this season has gone far from the genuine plot lines and they have pushed to an extent which doesn't make it funnier any more.

This episode missed the Rick and Morty duo, but keeping aside that, I think the writers should focus on stuffs which could be explained (or at least could be connected) by some sci-fi thing. These stories seem very childish.

The first 2 episodes were great, the third one was fun, but the last two weeks have sucked. I don't get why there hasn't been an actual Rick and morty adventure because I don't count last week. I don't even know which storyline was better this week, the classic and kinda repetitive and boring jerry trope or ricks spaceship kidnapping his grandchildren. I guess I'd say that car part was more interesting but not by much. Morty has been the highlight of this season but the writing of Rick has been a bit underwhelming.

The writers are having fun at R&M's expense, celebrating their own "Jerryness".

Decent return to form after the two least funny episodes in the series. The car was a nice returning character that was pretty funny, Rick felt like Rick again, although the hell subplot was a little overwritten. At least this episode made an attempt at good situational humor instead of relying on gross out like last week's garbage fire. Definitely not their best, but still felt like Rick and morty, which the show often doesn't in this latest season.

I'm sure plenty of people will disagree but I can't remember three consecutive episodes in the history of the show that were so unremarkable. Last season episodes 2-4 weren't great but 3-5 this season is significantly worse (IMO). It's obviously far too early to even think about writing off the show but season 5 has been a real disappointment so far.
