Rick and Morty Review –

This season has been interesting in how safe they have felt. I am unsure if this safety was embedded before one of the creators left, and things got shifted up.

So with this review, I’m going to set the scene and then talk about its positives, because there are some, and then I’ll break down why I found it to be so problematic.
