It’s hard to argue that the Emmy award-winning series Rick and Morty isn’t a brutally funny affair unlike anything else in the cosmos, and with many regarding the show as one of the best on television, it can become difficult picking out a favorite episode among the many well-crafted options to choose from. While some are obviously better than others, it seems like every installment has plenty of memorable moments to make them all classics in their own right.
