LaToya Ferguson Variety 10/25/2022
It's Rick and Morty doing hacky action at its best to kick things off, and naturally, we wouldn't have it any other way. Go to Full Review
Melanie McFarland Salon.com 10/25/2022
The simultaneous fondness for the recurring motifs of speculative fiction and its irreverent mocking of twists and tools that have been done to death are central to this show's duende. And that's also a major reason we love Rick. Go to Full Review
Brandon Katz Observer 10/25/2022
Rick and Morty persists not only for its inversion of sci-fi tropes, clever pop culture riffing and raw hilarity. It continues to hold our interest in a way few shows do because it knows we are all capable of great and terrible things. Go to Full Review

When a show's middle-of-the-road episode would be the highlight of another series, it is clear that the series has entered another echelon of television. It's no secret that Rick and Morty is in that echelon. Go to Full Review
Jeremy Nisen Under the Radar 10/25/2022
9/10
The opening salvo of the new season is spectacular: insane joke density, an ever-present silliness brushing up against bad taste, awkward social situations laid bare, and hilariously tearing classic sci-fi and genre conventions a new one. Go to Full Review
James Delingpole The Spectator 10/25/2022
A tiny, almost throwaway plot detail can mutate into a gloriously surreal digression that threatens to overwhelm the main narrative. You find this in the best Simpsons episodes too, but I've rarely seen it done with more outrageous verve than it is here. Go to Full Review
