I personally have always loved audio commentaries, so it was fascinating to listen to them and get the behind the scenes on the animation and writing process. The special features are pretty good, with audio commentary on each episode (sometimes two commentaries) from directors, performers, and animators involved in the show. Looking at the Blu-ray, there is one disk and a digital HD download code included with the purchase featuring all 10 episodes. The character design of the aliens and other life forms are inventive and so much fun to watch. The colors and fast pace of the adventures is great, and often each frame will have very complex backgrounds to marvel at. Each of the episodes of the show I’ve seen have been new, different, and even shocking in the storytelling, so I’ll put up with the Adult Swim part of it.Īs an animation fan the show is a joy to watch. This won’t be the case with everyone and I respect that.

Normally I wouldn’t indulge in this type of entertainment, but the creativity in the episodes wins me over each time. Speaking of offensive material, there’s lots to be had in Rick and Morty Season Two. These ‘friends’ take the shape of normal humans, like Jerry’s brother Uncle Steve, to Tinkles the Fairy Lamb, a Reverse Giraffe, and one that I would mention but I don’t want to offend anyone. One of my favorites is “Total Rickall,” in which alien parasites start manipulating human memories to convince them they are life long beloved friends. There’s a catastrophe in the galaxy that Rick and Morty must deal with, usually involving aliens or infestations of some kind. I won’t say any more, but each episode is kind of like that. This first episode then has the characters trying to reconcile both timelines and dealing with an alien being who is out to get them. Going into season two, Rick, Morty, and sister Summer are in a time travel experience where the world is split into multiple realities. Rick is an inventor who constantly drags Morty on his intergalactic travels and, as they meet various aliens, they have the craziest adventures you could imagine. It tells the story of a cranky alcoholic old man Rick and his worry-wart of a grandson Morty. If you don’t know, Rick and Morty is the brainchild of Justin Roiland and Dan Harmon for Adult Swim. That said, season two is coming out on DVD and Blu-ray on June 7th, and I will try to give you an idea of what you can expect if you purchase it.

It’s just very unique, which is part of its appeal. It’s the kind of thing I like, but if you hate it I totally understand. In many ways a show like Rick and Morty is tough to review because it is so out there and nutty that it is difficult to describe.
