Rick and Morty was the show for me in the beginning even when the dumbasses showed up, but it lost its appeal after the scandal. Just doesn’t feel the same.

the scandal???

I assume they mean Justin Roiland being found out as a sexual predator of underage girls ...

Probably this one where a bunch of fans attacked a McDonald's to get Szechuan sauce. Rick and Morty got some mainstream attention. People would say something like "You like R&M? You must be toxic."

I feel like they're more likely talking about Jeff Roiland's (edit: creator, one of the main writers, and voice actor for most male characters (including both Rick and Morty)) abuse allegations, after which they canned him as writer/ voice actor and the show kind of lost it's flair.

Personally, I think the new VAs are pretty good on their own. Morty even sounds a little better.

Tbh, the current and last season are great.

The voice actors are great. If I didn't know about the change, I'd never have noticed

[–] dandelion@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 2 weeks ago

they really did do a great job replacing the voice actor

I just learned about it now. I didn’t notice.

You're joking, right?

Roiland is a great voice actor, but the rambling "comedy" bits got old and repetitive real fast. I don't miss them. That, and the new VOs hit it out of the park.

Yeahh the Szechuan thing kinda tainted the whole show for me. It was a dumb bit that went too far and the cringe fallout still lingers...
