The Smith family has no purpose and no direction this season. Clearly, Dan doesn't either. Why not pick up on some of those abandoned plot threads from previous seasons?
Anyway, Episode 3. Morty is officially Flanderized. RIck, who should be the most interesting man in existence has become one-dimensional. The Smith family in general has become immune to real-world concerns.
There was a time when this family felt real - they had awkward dynamics with one another, they struggled, they felt emotional pain and they grew. Now they all feel like Rick's sidekicks. Beth and Jerry, once normal, caring parents, have resigned themselves to constantly putting themselves and their children in harm's way.
This season is a trainwreck so far, and this episode drags it down even further.
