I really don't see how the show survives without him, though I applaud them kicking him out.

Improv that was mostly him babbling while making up words, yeah. I can easily see it working if they do an intro to the next season where they explain the new voices. That said, his energy is what the shows really going to lose, so well see.

Honestly, I'm more interested than ever to see how the humor changes in subsequent seasons.

Mercy killing the show is the best thing you can do for it at this point. Cancel it, and people will forever put it on a pedestal based on when it was at its best because it "never had a chance to finish". The alternative is letting it roll into endless seasons and turn into another Simpsons or Family Guy where the characters are just caricatures of themselves and the writers have long since run out of truly novel stories to tell.

He's not even a very clever improv actor. The reason the improvised bits were funny was because of how the writers and animators interpreted his stuttering and rambling.

I mean, disagree. I loved a lot of his improv.

>gets drunk and makes up a word that sounds like an odd mix of a 5-year-old's speech patterns and a Greek surname

Congratulations, you've just created a new planet and culture in the Rick & Mortyverse!

That episode is actually unironically really good despite the memes

Im also very curious how the humor will change - I think a lot of the slapstick humor was hit or miss, but the episodes with some plot were usually quite good.
