      The funny thing I haven't seen people really talk about is that Rick and Morty is, for better or for worse, 100% a modernization of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy Everything people don't like about it is what they wouldn't like about Douglas Adams if he were new

      I get where you’re coming from but Adams cynicism was MUCH less nihilistic and a lot more absurdist & whimsical. Rick & Morty is more nasty & a lot less clever than most of Adams work. It also seem to take itself way more seriously than HHG

      My whole thing here is if you reread Adams, as I recently did, the HHGG series is a LOT darker than a lot of the fans remember it as, there's a lot of shit all the way through it that's just brutal

          Sure, but it was pretty much always presented in a way that wasn’t then framed with “lol”. It may have been incidentally funny, but his darkness felt tragic, not just a punchline (even if it *was* a punchline). Like I said: not mean.

          Also the ending! (Excluding the last, non-DA book)

          The last book Adams wrote ends with all of the characters dying. He had manuscripts written with how the characters survived, but no book where the characters survived was actually published until, like, 4 years ago, written by Eoin Colfer with the blessing of the Adams estate

          That last book, though. (And no, I'm not talking about that Eoin Colfer thing.)
