Most of the people here likely know who Dan Harmon is. He's the clever, lazy guy who brought us Community, and also bits and pieces of Scud: The Disposable Assassin (although that was mostly Rob Schrab.

He is let loose upon animation and the Doc Brown/Marty McFly concept with Rick and Morty, and oh my gosh does it confront unreality head on. I've never seen a show so unfraid of unvarnishing itself, of stripping the elements of life to raw carbon, water and calcium.

At one point Rick and Morty bury themselves in another dimension, where catastrophe struck them, but not those around them. It's very intentional mindfuckery at it's best.


5^10000000000 stars holy crap it was everything I hoped and dreamed of.
