I've been meaning to ask. . . Am I officially out of the demographic for today's animated 'dramedy' or have I just not watched enough.
People have raved and RAVED about Rick and Morty and Bojack Horseman, and I've caught about 1/2 the first season of R&M and most of the first season of BH, and while they're both good and inventive and occasionally chuckle inducing, it's not been this mindblowing experience people have been insisting, at least for me.

It's meant to be entertaining on surface and deeper on re-watching.
By season 3 the "universe" and "family" Rick and Morty are fighting for isn't even theirs.
It's just....a......."it's just an idea now Rick, it's not even real anymore." [Reply]

You need to keep watching BH. Your impression of the first season is spot-on, but the show gets its reputation in later seasons. [Reply]

BTW - I started over on R&M, and am about 5 episodes in [Meeseks]. While I still haven't gotten to mindblowing yet, I am appreciating the creativity and structure more on re-viewing, particularly for a show that's just getting started. Might be also, that this time around I'm actually waiting until I can sit still and actually pay full attention while watching this time. I think I put it on while doing bills and chores last time around. [Reply]

I loved how "make me a more complete woman" and "make me popular at school" were simpler tasks than "take 2 strokes off my golf game." [Reply]
