Rick and Morty - Season 3 Episode 04: Vindicators 3: The Return of Worldender
Rick & Morty has become one of Adult Swim’s signature series and one of the hottest sci-fi comedies on TV. Season 3 sees mad scientist Rick Sanchez moves in with his daughter's family after disappearing for 20 years and involves them in his wacky adventures.
Season 3's Avengers parody works so well because the show has established all of these themes before. "Vindicator 3" isn't so much a conversation about Rick's morality. It's a painful reflection of his lack of morality and invincibility.
This week saw our beloved duo head off on one of their funniest, most deranged adventures yet, mixing superhero film tropes with family drama, sprinkled with unhealthy nihilism.
The reason Rick And Morty is so impressive this season so far is that it's managed to maintain emotional authenticity in its major characters without stooping to easy sentiment or laziness.
"Vindicators 3" packs the series' best long-con punchline since Beth shot Mr. Poopybutthole in Season 2's "Total Rickall," except that this time, the audience is the butt of the joke as much as are any characters on screen.
If there's anything from "Vindicators 3: The Return of Worldender" episode that's truly memorable, it's more brilliant work from the always-reliable Lance Reddick.
Rick and Morty is never an upbeat show on the best of days, and "Vindicators 3" really cemented the darker, more nihilistic approach being taken this season.
