SeasonEpisodeTitleRating (out of 5)Notes
11Pilot 5 The start of it all, a must watch. Perfect pacing, love the cold open and "They're robots Morty!" 

12Lawnmower Dog 4 I enjoy the inception knock off storyline the most, the bit where they're deep inside the dreams having to remind themselves of the plot is too perfect. 

13Anatomy Park 4 The image of a gigantic dead old man being exploded above the US is amazing, plus Jerry's dad jumping in the closet with a superman costume is perfect. "Would you like to ride the bone train?"
14M. Night Shaym-Aliens! 4 I love trying to figure out when Rick knew that he was still in a simulation,  and wondering if he suspected Morty was a fake. "Hungry for apples?"
15Meeseeks and Destroy 4 "I'm MrMr. Meseeks!Meeseeks!" Iconic, not to be missed. A little uncomfortable with the jellybean scene though. 

16Rick Potion #9 6 The actual best episode in the entire series. I love Jerry's character arc here, and the solution to the main problem really elevates the lore. 

17Raising Gazorpazorp 3 Not terrible but not very impactful,  plus somewhat problematic with its gender essentialism, though you could take it as parody.
18Rixty Minutes 5 Improvised nonsense at its best, the first anthology episode of the series has to be the best. "it'It's just two brothers. . . " 

19Something Ricked this Way Comes 4 The pluto storyline is boring, but you don't want to miss this one for the iconic bits, like Summer and Rick getting roided up to beat down bullies, and "You pass butter." "Oh my god."
110Close Rick-Counters of the Rick Kind 5 First episode that introduces a substantial continuity and expands the lore. Hard to forget the evilEvil Morty music. 

111Ricksy Business 4 Can't miss the introduction to Bird Person,  of course. Solid episode.
21A Rickle in Time 5 I love this type of "high concept" sci fi. The B story with the Titanic was pretty boring though. 

22Mortynight Run 4 I'm not a huge fan of the moonman song,  but this episode has some of the best one liners "Oh boy, here I go killing again!"
23Auto Erotic Assimilation 4 Somewhat thought provoking. 

24Total Rickall 5 Classic Rick and Morty. I'm still not convinced Mr Poopybutthole isn't a memory parasite. 

25Get Schwifty 4 A lot of laughs, what else can I say?  Except "Get schwifty!"

26The Ricks must be Crazy 5 The best episode of the season. "Keep Summer safe." Perfect execution of a clever concept,  and hilarious through the whole episode.

27Big Trouble in Little Sanchez 5 "Get your shit together, put it in a backpack, just get it together." I was laughing the whole time, so many good bits. I like Jerry's solution to the B story, I wonder what happened to goddess Beth. 

28Interdimensional Cable 2: Tempting Fate 4 Not as funny as the first, but still funny. 

29Look Who's Purging Now 4 Funny, but a little too gratuitously violent for me. 

210The Wedding Squanchers 5 I love the lore episodes. Having just read "The Sociopath Next Door," I was beginning to think of Rick as a sociopath, but he does appear to have something of a conscience here. It's fun to think about! 

31The Rickshank Rickdemption 5 I'm craving szechuan sauce now. Okay, maybe Rick is just a sociopath. It's still fun to watch him outsmart everyone around him.

32Rickmancing the Stone 3 This one feels a bit preachy or forced with its "moral." Still has a few funny bits though.

33Pickle Rick 5 "I'm pickle Rick!"   There's a good reason that this one gets memed so much. Solid, fun story, decent monologue by the therapist.
34Vindicators 3: The Return of Worldender 5 I guess we're just trashing on Rick this season,   and I'm loving it!
35The Whirly Dirly Conspiracy 4 It's got some strong moments and some weak moments. Am I grading these too well,   or was early Rick and Morty just this good?
36Rest and Ricklaxation 3 "In and out, 20 minute adventure!" Kept my attention at least. 

37The Ricklantis Mixup 5 Honestly kinda feels prescient, with the assassination attempt on the Morty candidate and then the very quick changes in the Citidel after the election.

S3:E8This one is the best episode in the season.

38Morty's Mind Blowers 4 Not as good as Interdimensional Cable, but a good few laughs here and there.

39The ABC's of Beth 4 "Don't jump a gift shark in the mouth" This one loses points for the very gross cannibal-incest plot point, but gains points for Beth's character arc.


310The Rickchurian CandidateMortydate 3 I'm ambiguousambivalent about this one. There are some funny bits,   but I don't feel the ending with Jerry being reunited with his family is satisfying. I suppose that's the point, that Jerry and Rick are unlikeable for different reasons, and both are uncomfortable aspatriarchs.
41Edge of Tomorty: Rick Die Rickpeat 5 "You little monster, I thought you were masturbating!" I love the concept of the death crystals and how Morty uses them. And the after credits reveal really pulls everything together.

Best

S4:E2episode of the season

42The Old Man and the Seat 5 OMG, confirmed, Rick uses Linux. Specifically he uses Debian,   which is amazing. Also, this episode is very funny. Great character arcs.
43One Crew over the Crewcoo's Nest 5 "You son of a bitch, I'm in!" I forgot "Elon Tusk"   was in this. He's as terrible an actor as he is a...person.

44Claw and Hoarder: Special Rick Tim's Morty 2 Maybe the first real dud in Rock and Morty. Boring, weird and unnecessarily sexual/incestuous.

45Rattlestar Ricklactica 4 Time travel shenanigans. I'm pretty sure it doesn't make sense. Snake jazz. 

46Never Ricking Morty 4 Not as many laugh, laughs,  but I love this kind of story. Very meta.meta,

with

S4:E7Story Lord.

47Promortyus 4 I like the concept, and I like the way the story is revealed non linearly

48The Vat of Acid Episode 4 OMG, Rick is such a psycho. Includes a great bit of non verbal storytelling. 

49Childrick of Mort 4 "Getting high and playing video games is the best!" 

410Star Mort Rickturn of the Jerri 4 I do always like the lore episodes,  and space Beth is a great addition to the cast. But this episode felt too short, like they tried to cram too much into 25 minutes

minutes.
51Mort Dinner Rick Andre 4 Classic Rick and Morty. "Fuck off, I'm a time God!" 

52Mortyplicity 5 Another one of those sci fi concept episode that I really like. Decoys.

My

S5:E3favorite episode of the season, except maybe the final episode? Best non-lore episode for sure.

53A Rickconvenient Mort 4 I didn't laugh much,  but I liked the stories of both Planetina and the apocaypses.apocalypses.

The

S5:E4animation of Summer averting an apocalyse is actually really good.

54Rickdependence Spray 2 Yuck. Was this necessary? I didn't give it the lowest rating because I did laugh a little. 

5 5Amortycan Grickfitti3Boring for the most part,   but not terrible

terrible.

S5:E6It's the one with the demons who enjoy pain.

56Rick & Morty's Thanksploitation Spectacular 3 Not particularly interesting but not offensive

offensive.
57Gotron Jerrysis Rickvangelion 4 A point away for integration of the giant incest space baby,   but otherwise I loved it. The voice overs were great!
58Rickternal Friendshine of the Spotless Mort 4 More lore. Pretty good. 

59Forgetting Sarick Mortshall 4 "Rick and Two Crows forever!" 

510Rickmurai Jack 5 Satisfying ending (?) to Evil Morty's arc. Makes me think about philosophy and stuff. 
61Solaricks4Solid lore episode "Parmesian. Gross."
62Rick: A Mort Well Lived4Solid,  but not too many laughs.
63Bethic Twinstinct4I found this funny. 
64Night Family3It's fine. I have lost all sense of whether my ratings have any kind of objective meaning
65Final DeSmithation3 It's fine,  I actually laughed quite a bit, but it left me feeling empty...or maybe I just feel empty right now.
66JuRicksic Mort3Actually pretty funny,  but missing some kind of spark?
