It's not a bad episode. In fact it's in the better half of episodes this season, but like, really?
This is the first season where the plot felt like it it didn't move at all.
It's weird because season 5 had great story beats, but had a few episodes that were no where near up to the normal rick and morty standard.
But this season while not a single one of the episodes was bad... there was very little that the show delivered for it's story.
Now that's not the worst thing ever, but I did come out of this season thinking by rick and morty standards it was average.
Yes, season 5 had bad episodes.
But it also had way more episodes that stood out. I still think this is an improvement, but I can't say I wasn't disappointed by the lack of story.
The episode itself is fun. It has some nice moments and is entertaining through and through. Although it's not the funniest and most of it's value comes from character development and being a fantastic teaser.
And to be completely fair, while it being a teaser in the first place isn't something that I love, I also admit that, that is completely a problem that only stands because I have to wait for season 7.
Which means it won't be one for future viewers.
Anyways, this season had a lot of good, but not as much great as I expected.
The only episode that truly stood out to me was the meta one which as a wanna be writer, I absolutely adored.
