10 Best Rick And Morty Episodes

7. Rixty Minutes

Rick and Morty
Adult Swim

Thus far a lot of the discussion about the show has been based on its broad scale concepts, the character-building it has established, and it's cultural impact. Still, there is one significant aspect of the show that hasn't been mentioned thus far, and that is the excellent voice work and comedy skill of Justin Roiland.

The improvisational tone that the show takes genuinely makes it feel unique as despite being animated, it does feel like the show is improvised. The vocal quality and gibberish words always get a laugh and are one of the series most endearing foundations.

This episode acts in a way as a chance to allow this style of comic delivery to be the central highlight of the chapter. With Rick hooking the TV up to inter-dimensional cable, the family can watch TV shows from different realities, and many strange things are discovered.

More like a sketch show, this episode has too many highlights to discuss. It acts as a brilliant doorway into the intelligent yet spontaneous style of the show and is a beautiful episode to put on and enjoy without needing to overthink.
