The Curicksous Case of Bethjamin Button

Was simply amazing. Everything that i like about Rick and Morty is here. It took 5 bad episodes (some basically unwatchable) to get it but it's finally here. It appears that just like season 7 which had mediocre episodes and occasional masterpieces like the Prime Rick finale and the Hole episodes, which are pure gold, season 8 will also be inferior but as long as they keep bringing episodes like this one i'm in. So Rick and Morty is not dead. Voices are inferior, show is inferior but great episodes are still happening.

Hopefully the rest of the season maintains the wuality this episode brought to the table again.

Rick and Morty is not about bloody plots. It's about bringing audiences the stories of these two characters. For example, how they interact with each other, how they face different challenges together. To me, it's not just a simple animation. It's educational at the same time.

It really doesn't matter if the episode's really funny. The directors of this animation are trying to tell people that aspirations not only come from the reality but also from something seems not close to our daily lives. It's a cliché to say Rick and Morty broaden our horizons and develop our creativity. In a brief, I would summarize this animation as fantasy of family challenges.

Seriously, what? Who writes this stuff? Is this supposed to be fun or cool or what? Rick & Morty always had a level of violence but things are different now. Things just feel off. It's a cheapened version of what it used to be. I get more disappointed with each episode. Hoping for better to come. But it's clear that won't happen, and we're not getting back what we used to have. Every week is just a let-down and I get less and less excited or interested in the show. I don't even watch it anymore, I just play it while I do something else. R&M used to captivate my attention, now it's mostly background stuff.

I never thought I'd feel this way about Rick and Morty again. Season 3 was the peak for me - since then, the show's been clever but never truly moving. But this episode? It shattered me.

Without spoiling anything, I can only say this: it's not just funny, it's honest. There's something quietly powerful about the way it unfolds. It made me laugh, then made me cry - not out of sadness, but because something deep clicked. Like the show remembered what made it special in the first place.

This isn't just a return to form. It's a reminder that behind all the sci-fi chaos, Rick and Morty still has the heart to reach you when you least expect it.

10/10 - for the feeling I didn't know I missed.

I'm used to Rick and Morty delivering a few bangers every season sprouted with a couple mediocre episodes here are there. This episode wasn't half bad it was good but not great. The whole Beth was a animal murderer and sadist as a kid was quickly overlooked as a gag; when I'm not sure you can use something that gruesome as a gag? The whole HumanWorld plot twist was done a million times over by the show's creators I'm not impressed. Hopefully the elite writers took over for episodes 7-10 because apart from episode 1 the rest of the season has been pretty medicore. The Father daughter sentiment was quite nice at the end of the episode but the whole two Beths thing still urks me. Pretending this weird ass Space Beth is normal cog of the show is peculiar to me. I liked the show better when they were separate and not together like before season 7.
