TopicRick and Morty season 4 has been really funny so far

The first and last episodes were the best. Both the Morty and the Ricks plots were great, Wasp reality was suitably horrifying, and the reveal that Morty's "death with Jessica" was just her rotely reading off his name tag at the hospice she works in as he dies alone and forgotten was even better.

The second episode was basically one great plot(Rick's plot hunting down the rogue pooper) stapled to one mediocre plot(Morty/Jerry) and one terrible plot(Beth/Summer). I'm glad they end the episode with the payoff of the Rick plot: it's too perfect.

The Heist episode was eh. It has some great quotable lines(my personal favorite is Rick's: "Your boos mean nothing, I've seen what makes you cheer.") but as an episode it's weak, even with the reveal the whole thing was just Rick trying to get Morty to hate heist plots. The Elon Musk cameo was weird and unnecessary.

Slut Dragons was good(it even has an especially inspired title: Claw and Hoarder: Special Ricktims Morty), but hurt by the Jerry/Cat plot being mostly dead space. The A plot is hilarious all the way through though, IMO, and the payoff from the Jerry plot was good especially Rick actually doing Jerry a favor.

The snake episode was gold. All the references are great, the snake language is great, snake jazz is great, it's funny throughout and time travel being an apocalyptic, civilization-destroying invention feels perfect. Everyone wants to go back in time to kill Snake Hitler, for example, but there are a ton of people going back in time to save Snake Hitler(maybe they're Nazis, maybe Snake Hitler being murdered by a random time-traveler creates an even worse reality, who knows?), and it all turns into people murdering each other while Snake Hitler watches the carnage from his bath tub. Beth straight-up murdering the Snake Terminator because it skeezed her out was also a great gag. Then you have Jerry Jerrying it up in the B-plot, culminating in saving himself by crashing a 747. Great job Jerry, at least you didn't need Rick's help!
