Yet another episode centered on a child's dick.

Typical of current female writers, they mistake making someone likable and somewhat sympathetic with emasculating him.
The first seasons had Rick be a fun character by having him go on fun adventures, have friends and occasionally dial down when someone was about to be hurt. The last seasons Rick goes on extremely selfish ventures, has no friends and is incredibly cruel to his family

It's in stark contrast to the 1st season where Morty is molested by that lolipop king and Rick goes back to kill the guy.
Typical Harmon creating interesting and engaging characters in the first 2 seasons, only to jerk himself off for being so "Meta" by flanderizing and bastardizing them into something unrecognizable in the following seasons.

And Roiland allowed it to happen and cashed his checks just like Groening and Seth McFarland have done.

This happened as early as the first season with the Cronenberg shit. That would have killed the show right there if it wasn't that they managed to be funny for at least two seasons more.

I didn't even realize it was the finale until Rick started his rant at the end.

The finale had a major plot hole: If the President had droids with lightsaber arms/eyes made for him, why did he need Morty's lightsaber? He could have just had his own custom lightsaber.

I was literally coming here to post that! Lol
The finale felt tired and stale...kind of like how the show was for most of the season.
Still, no incest and I like Keith David as the President, so that's better than usual I guess.

Finale would have been great if they just removed the dumb lightsaber shit and kept it focused on rick and robot rick. As it is 20% of the episode is intresting and 80% is random bullshit that's meaningless because its not going to affect the status quo. And the ending is shit too, they just handwave it and go "eh whatever".
I don't understand rick and morty writers. They made an intresting world and intresting characters that people want to see more of and instead of trying to make a good story that explores that they intentionally steer away from that and mock anyone who cares. Nihilism is poison.
Beth has sex with her twin and there's an entire episode about jerry fucking his mother.

He knows. He was just praising the finale for not having incest. Anyway, my brother said the finale doesn't have a plothole because "the President is a dick." I still don't think that's a good enough reason for him to take Morty's ligthsaber. Maybe all the ones made for him could have been red, orange, or yellow, and he just wanted a blue one?

Ended up watching the entire series recently. Originally I stopped around the time S3 aired, not quite sure why, I vaguely remember some controversy about it at the time.
The first episode was so unfunny I almost dropped it right there but I persisted and S1/2 were actually a pretty good time.
S3 definitely feels a bit different tonally but it was still pretty amusing. Bad finale however. S4 was the definite lowpoint though, I'd just go entire episodes without even smirking although it still had its moments like Summer ruining the S4 premiere.
S6 actually felt like a bit of a return to form, some episodes like the Beth selfcest ones were pretty funny.
You can definitely feel the politics of the writer seep in at times though. I can laugh at cops and white/black people jokes but when the writer probably unironically buys into it it loses some of its charm.
Still, there's a bit of a disconnect between the adventure of the week and serialized format, especially if you're gonna make that many meta jokes about it. You can do better than 1/2 episodes per season. I'd be just fine without any plot progression but if you're gonna do it, actually put some effort in. The last finale is a prime example. it's 90% random bullshit and 10% teasing Rick Prime
Also bring back Planetina, you hacks.

I think it does work because the president has always been shown to be resentful and jealous of Rick having the better, cooler tech, and he and Morty have gone at each other as well, so he wants to take Morty's lightsaber away purely to be an asshole out of spite towards the two. Small praise but sometimes the show deserves it
