And season 7 is pretty good.

I stopped watching Rick and Morty because of the child predator. I had no idea they replaced him in season 7!

huh, some episodes of season 7 have a bad rating on imdb. I still want to watch it though, to get a feel of the new voice actor.

I think some people are upset that the voices aren’t 100% true to Justin, and maybe some anti-cancel culture typed as well.
There are some weak episodes, and they are REALLY weak, but I think it also has some of the strongest of the entire series. I’d say it’s worth a watch.

When anyone says they’re anti cancel culture, I always reply “Yeah it was lame when those cancel culture assholes all attacked bud light”. Because they definitely are a type.
I bet he’s using the sob story of getting fired to slip into more underage girls DMs. I’m all about canceling creeps and rapists.

I stopped watching in season 5, because the story started getting weird and it lost it's charm from earlier seasons.

They found people who imitate the original voices which surprised me a bit because I expected something like they did for Solar Opposites to happen.

What’s this about?
I’m pretty lukewarm on Rick & Morty 🤷🏻♂️

Tons of girls on Twitter have come forward sharing sexual DMs sent to them by the voice actor of the main characters. They were young and underaged girls.
He haa also separately been accused by more than one woman of sexual assault, one of which went to trial (this is why he was fired), although the trial ended in his favor due to “lack of evidence”.

He was also fired for this…

After like episode one or two I could no longer tell the difference between the old voices. Either whatever very subtle differences existed were ironed out by then, or I just stopped noticing them. The replacement voice actors are very, very good.

The VAs are great, but the writing quality seriously tanked in season 7

You were down voted, but I agree that there were some clunkers this season. I did like the episode with the hole in the Denny’s bathroom.

They kinda blew their load with the evil Morty ep.

I agree. There were some excellent episodes and some meh ones like usual, but I feel that there were also more than one disappointing ones for the first time.

They definitely used the new voice actors' worst takes in the season trailer, that was probably intentional too
