[Editor’s Note: The following review contains spoilers for the “Rick and Morty” Season 3 finale, Episode 10, “The Rickchurian Mortydate.”]
When the logline for “The Rickchurian Mortydate,” the Season 3 finale of “Rick and Morty,” was released, there was plenty of speculation that what the president referenced in the episode description would be Evil Morty, the mastermind revealed at the end of “The Ricklantis Mixup.” A more mythology-obsessed show might have gone that route, building on the success of the season’s standout episode and threading together the C-137 timeline with the consequences of Rick and Morty’s actions in the broader multiverse.
That “Rick and Morty” instead said farewell to Season 3 with an unexpectedly self-contained musing on the nature of obligation and family doesn’t make the show any less ambitious. But it does indicate a show segueing briskly into its offseason, wrapping up some thematic loose ends in a way that didn’t outdo its Season 3 predecessors, but still gave viewers plenty to latch onto, visually and philosophically.

We may keep a running tab of our favorite “Rick and Morty” episodes, but how does our list compare to that of co-creator Dan Harmon? Harmon recently revealed to Entertainment Weekly his five favorite episodes, and they’re all ones that received the best fan response. Incidentally, there’s one episode Harmon regrets making, and it’s largely because of criticism he received. “Like the bad parent I am, I choose children that the public chooses,” he said. I don’t care how hard I worked on an episode, if fans hate it, it’s bad, and I hate it too.”
Here are Harmon’s top five episodes, reluctantly chosen and in no particular order:

“Rick and Morty” finishes its acclaimed third season this Sunday, and if you feel like it was only yesterday the show was returning for a new batch of episodes after a two-year hiatus, you’re certainly not alone. The first three seasons of the Adult Swim favorite have all maxed out at 10 episodes, which is hardly ever enough. Just when you’re obsessed with the show all over again, you find out there’s only one episode left and you’re forced to say goodbye.
Fortunately, co-creator Dan Harmon isn’t ruling out a future where “Rick and Morty” seasons run longer than the traditional 10 episodes. Harmon and Justin Roiland originally planned to extend Season 3 to include more episodes, but their obsessive nature led to such a delay in production that they ended up going with the standard 10 so the series could return to Adult Swim after such a long break.

“Rick and Morty” Season 3 has been defined by thrilling narrative risks (see “The Ricklantis Mixup” and “Morty’s Mind Blowers”), so it was a bit of a shock to see the show return to its more traditional A-story/B-story structure in its penultimate episode, “The ABCs of Beth.” The episode may have felt a little safe in terms of narrative, but it represented a huge milestone for Rick and Beth, the father and daughter whose tumultuous relationship has given the series one of its defining emotional arcs.
Beth took center stage with her own adventure in “The ABCs of Beth,” and the storyline acted as a payoff to the groundwork laid in “Pickle Rick” earlier this year. In that episode, Beth took the kids to therapy in order to help them process her divorce from Jerry, but the session ended up serving as a reckoning for Beth’s own disappointment with her father.

Nick has been lost in the Bermuda Triangle for some time. He finally found his way out and decided to write up another HorrorFAIL!
I’ve said it before, and I will say it again, when it comes to movies that Troma picks up from third parties you’re usually wandering into hit-or-miss territory, and unfortunately the 1988 film Bloodspell (aka The Boy from Hell) lands in the miss category. The film was directed by Deryn Warren and written by Jerry Daly. Daly went on to write Witchcraft III, which we all know what that means… That’s right, we never heard of it and we don’t know what we’re walking into.
Synopsis:
Daniel Redding (Anthony Jenkins) is the son of Luther (John Reno) and Jane (Susan Buchanan) Redding. The family has some secret: Luther’s father is an evil man hoping to possess either his son or wife...
