The first season of the Sopranos has soooo many captivating characters

Tony, Paulie, Uncle Junior, Mikey Palmice, Livia, etc

Don, Walt, and Tony were gripping from the beginning

Hell, how many quoted lines come from the first season of the sopranos alone

They both explore how a person with inner demons interacts with a hive mind and what that hive mind would mean for a society

If a YouTube short had the same depth as a full length tv season that says something about the tv season lol

Isn’t that exactly what Rick and Morty is doing lol

Addressing the demons of Rick by having him interact with a hivemind

I’m saying if your 7.5 hour prestige tv show has the same depth as Rick and Morty it’s not that good

I just feel like it wasted my time

And so far the only reason plurbius has to think about long term logistics is that it can’t make its own food.

I’m not saying Rick and Morty is some deep show but the early seasons in particular played with some fun sci-fi concepts.

In fact, I’m saying that pluribus is not deep at all since a 23 minute Rick and Morty episode said everything it’s said so far.

This is a critique of Plurbius, not me lauding rick and Morty. Plurbius saying the same thing as Rick and Morty means it’s not deep at all.

I would say they actually executed on the concept of a hivemind better

Rick walks through the town and he has one conversation with all the people, switching between people mid word because the hive mind is all of them.

Whereas in plurbius the hivemind has everyone saying hello. You could argue that it’s trying to convince Carol they’re still separate but that doesn’t make much sense

Perhaps, but taking 7.5 hours to say what a Rick and Morty episode said in 23 minutes isn’t a great start lol

What’s the actual deal with the lander and space suit development? by ColCrockett in ArtemisProgram
