Hello internet, welcome to film theory, the show that's also having its main character recast.

Wab-la-la-dub, am I right?

Oh, sorry about that, had a lee in my throat.

Today we're talking about Rick and Morty.

Gotta be real with ya, and all the craziness that was 2023, I almost missed that Rick and Morty came back.

But now that I've gotten a chance to sit down and actually binge through the whole thing, I gotta admit that these have got to be some of the best episodes that the team has ever delivered.

What's more, season 6 started to dabble with this idea of dissatisfaction, where we watch as everyone who gets what they want are ultimately left empty and unhappy.

Realizing that getting what you want sometimes isn't exactly what you need.

Season 7 though, it takes these themes and ratchets them up to the next level.
