Rick and Morty

Sci-fi cartoon duo

Rick and Morty is an adult animated television series following a genius alcoholic scientist and his anxious teenage grandson on adventures across dimensions and realities.

The show blends sci-fi concepts with dark humor and nihilistic philosophy.

In broader usage, Rick and Morty references signal either appreciation for clever absurdism or, pejoratively, pseudo-intellectual posturing: He's got real Rick and Morty energy.
