Difficulties writing it, divorce happening to the show runner, etc..

Plus the length of time between 2 and 3 didn't help

Probably ran out of solid concepts to write on. Definitely feels way more forced this season so far.

There's this weird focus on serious plotlines that might be ok if the execution weren't so forced. There's just not many jokes, and also this weird over reliance on gore.

That pickle episode wasn't funny.

None of the episodes in season 3 have been particularly funny.

I can't believe people actually thought the Szechuan dipping sauce joke was funny.

The creator divorce is the biggest issue. Big time.

Harmon. I said this once ep 2 was released that writing a divorce in the show while he was going through one might be a bad sign for the series.

Yeah, it's pretty awesome. Though I think the quality depends on the guest star.

I haven't seen much of it yet, but If I where to wager a guess, I'd say the popularity went to their heads and they are super focused on being dark and edgy and completely losing the parts of it that were fun about it.

Apparently, Rick and Morty is back and better than ever! Largely due to the four new female writers they added to the team, for some reason.

Well, if season 3 is suddenly weaker than the two previous, that's a funny coincidence.

For the record, I think Season 3 has been okay so far.

I think the bigger issue is the creator's divorce. He sort exercises the majority of creative control over the product. It's weird that you instantly jump to the conclusion that it's the women working for him and not the man in charge.

It's not the site as much as CE is a cesspool of people who just hate woman.

This guy's going through a divorce and the writing is focused on divorce.



Clearly the women are messing with the story.

Saying "professional man is too incapable of handling his emotions that he completely wrecks show due to personal reasons" is a better assumption than a team of new writers? Lol k. SJ gon W

I'm not being especially serious, but according to the full interview, most of the new female writers have very few writing credits attached to their resumes. I think the only show mentioned that the "veteran" of the 4 worked on was Robot Chicken. I don't think that's the only one, obviously, but I think it was the big one they mentioned.

But, yes, changing up the writers on a show can impact it's quality or change it's direction a bit. For better or worse.
