    I feel like they’re more likely talking about Jeff Roiland’s (edit: creator, one of the main writers, and voice actor for most male characters (including both Rick and Morty)) abuse allegations, after which they canned him as writer/ voice actor and the show kind of lost it’s flair.

      Personally, I think the new VAs are pretty good on their own. Morty even sounds a little better.

      Tbh, the current and last season are great.

      The voice actors are great. If I didn’t know about the change, I’d never have noticed

      You’re joking, right?

      Roiland is a great voice actor, but the rambling “comedy” bits got old and repetitive real fast. I don’t miss them. That, and the new VOs hit it out of the park.

          kind of. but it’s mostly character development. His edge mostly was “I’m drunk and an asshole who pretends to not care”

          He starts to actually care about his family. The ultra depressed suicidal rick got a bit tiring after a while
