This episode is a prime example of lazy writing disguised as edgy satire. Once again, the writers take the most overused shortcut in adult animation: mocking religion for cheap laughs. The portrayal of Jesus as an alien soldier sent to fight a hyper-sexualized Easter Bunny isn't clever, subversive, or new (it's just tired). At this point, the "religion is dumb" joke feels like it's being recycled for the hundredth time, and this show used to be more creative than that.

Worse, the episode relies heavily on gross-out and vulgar humor, including scenes like Jerry vomiting up a bunny, which seem to exist purely to disgust rather than entertain. It brings to mind "Rickdependence Spray" (S5 E4), one of the show's most widely criticized episodes, known for prioritizing crude spectacle over substance. This episode follows the same path, prioritizing "shock" over story.

What's most disappointing is that it contributes absolutely nothing to the ongoing development of the characters. Unlike the two previous episodes this season (which gave us meaningful glimpses into Rick's relationship with his family, especially Summer, Morty, and Beth) this one is just noise. There's no emotional core, no growth, and no stakes. Just a hollow plot full of forced irreverence that adds nothing to the show's legacy or world-building.

You can be irreverent and smart (Rick and Morty has done it before), but this? This is just filler wrapped in fake controversy. And frankly, it's beneath the show.
