Rick And Morty: All Season 2 Episodes Ranked

Which are the best episodes of Rick and Morty Season 2?

After season 1, which served as an introduction to the now iconic grandfather-grandson duo, season 2 saw Rick and Morty in its prime. It introduced catchphrases like "Get Schwifty" and characters like Tiny Rick, and further developed all that was good about the series.

The first season of the show varied immensely in quality, but the second can definitely be described as being consistently top-notch.

In spite of this season's overall excellence, there are one or two episodes which do not live up to the quality of the others. These will, obviously, be at the bottom of the list, but the top eight or so episodes are so close together in terms of quality that it was almost impossible to rank them definitively.

If it were possible to put them all at joint first place, the list would surely have been compiled so, but the fact of the matter is that they have to be ordered, meaning that it's necessary to evaluate every aspect of each episode to decide which to place where.

For this reason, some fan favourite episodes may have to be placed towards the bottom end of the list, but rest assured that this is a necessity, and it doesn't mean that the episode in question is - strictly speaking - bad.

10. Interdimensional Cable 2: Tempting Fate

A sequel of sorts to the the disappointing season 1 episode Rixty Minutes, Interdimensional Cable 2: Tempting Fate falls flat on its face just like its predecessor.

Admittedly, there were some funny moments; definitely more than there were in Rixty Minutes, but compared to the outstanding quality of the other nine episodes on this list, there is not a shadow of a doubt that Interdimensional Cable 2 belongs at the very bottom.

The premise is simple: another wacky, random and cheap ride through the various TV channels of the multiverse.

All the while, Jerry is hospitalised, and later convinced to donate a vital organ to intergalactic civil rights activist, Shrimply Pibbles. The entertaining parts of the episode all come from this subplot with Jerry, and the actual cable scenes drag on and are as formulaic as the precursor.

It only gets better from here.
