I hope they go a COMPLETELY different direction with the voices as a joke. Only way I'll watch it.

Shitposts will be used against you at 99% of workplaces. Especially when representing a huge public company.

I wasn't assuming anything. I'm somewhat of a shitposter myself and I can't think of a single thing that could be used legally against me in any recent shitposts, so I was merely asking to keep myself out of trouble.

Good article that's not too long - I'm surprised how little he had to do with R&M other than voices after the first season.

Has he addressed the DMs to underage girls?
Because it wasn't just the domestic violence case that was the problem.

Tag, you're it.
Genuinely asking, are those DM proved to be true and not faked?

There are videos of the girls that got them showing them going directly to his profile.

Welp, fuck him then and I hope he goes to jail.

I have yet to see anything that shows them to be fake. If they were fake and easily proven to be so I have a feeling he would have already addressed it by now.
Edit: Beaten.

He won't. He has other issues going on besides these domestic violence charges. See above.

Yeah, this
The DMs to underage girls are still there
Dude isnt getting his job back.

We have no way of knowing if it was/wasn't true. Not enough evidence to proceed with a conviction is not actually some sort of full redemption.
Either way, too much smoke came out for him to immediately get jobs back or anything. The DMs, how they correlate to him joking about fucking underaged girls.
Dude is rich as fuck and behaved like that, I just kind of don't get it. We all could lose our careers over that behavior if it got around, and when you are a public figure, what do you expect?
I personally don't care that much if he starts getting roles or anything; people do fucked up shit and it has no effect on my ability to enjoy their work. However, the things he does require working with other people, and apparently the guy already was uncomfortable to work with beforehand.. so good luck finding an employer.

I didn’t say he was fully redeemed or anything of the sort. “Apparently wasn't true” about that specific thing isn’t like I’m saying he’s totally vindicated.
I agree those DMs are creepy as fuck and I wouldn’t want to employ someone like that. At the very least, even if he was “joking,” it shows terrible judgment and would make me worry about what other kind of shit he was up to.

No one shall be brought before our LORD David Bowie without the true and secret knowledge of the Photoshop. For in that time, so shall He appear.
Yeah, I do agree that there's like a general sadness and cynicism in Roiland's delivery that seems to be missing here. But these are also just the trailer lines, so who knows. Also, it's just a fun cartoon, and I'm glad it didn't get cancelled.

Ha. Yeah. Morty is almost identical, but Rick just doesn't quuiiiittteee have the edge like he used to.

Nah, justin stopped doing a good chunk of the writing a few years ago, so not much was lost there.

They lack the manicness that Morty and rick used to have. Might get better. Maybe not.

Actually it hasn’t been trash, you just don’t like this format, most people who call this show “shit since S2 or S3” never liked it they just tolerated the first few seasons and no longer do, which is okay by the way, there are other properties that suffer the same issue like South Park, Family Guy, Borderlands games…etc
Roiland stopped writing for the show around the third season I think?

I wouldn't call it trash, but the decline in quality has been very apparent, with season 4 being particularly poor. Season 5 was a small improvement but being honest I highly doubt they'll ever recapture the magic of the first couple of seasons.
The key problem is that what once was a pretty smart, sharply written show has devolved into a state where most episodes can be basically be summed up by high-concept SF gimmick + pop-culture references + lazy call-backs to past episodes.
And that's it. Its mostly dumb, superficial and at its core nonsensical. Any pretence of actual thematic or character development is long gone.

Man I don’t get why that episode gets so much hate, I remember watching in bed with headphones and I fuckin lol’d so hard a couple times my wife told me to get out of bed because I woke her up. Granted, I was stoned

I rewatched most of season 6 the other day and it was a bummer. Not because of quality or Roland leaving but they've leaned so hard into nihilism that it can be sort of a drag watching it.
Community would lean into darkness but never like rick and morty. I feel like Rick and morty are just staring into their navel and seeing nothing but darkness

Yeah, the Morty likeness is almost uncanny. If you put me on the spot I'd have a very tough time telling you what's different between them.
Rick not as much. There's a mean-spiritedness and unnerving enthusiasm that's missing from some of the lines. Some of his delivery is almost spot-on but others feel a mite too... sane? A couple examples include the clash with Amber, where the old Rick would have been much meaner, or the spaghetti announcement, which Justin would have been off-puttingly excited about.
Still on the whole much better than I was expecting.

They sound fine but I guess I underestimated how much I liked the early Roiland style of Rick and Morty that can't really be imitated. The real nutty stuff like what he does during the Interdimensional Cable episodes.

Mr. Community
the new voice actor sound similar, but the performance is different
