THIS is my favorite episode

I used to think "Lawnmower Dogs" was my favorite episode in the series, but I have changed my mind. This episode's premise is extremely basic, but absolutely hilarious. Rick simply reprograms the TV to watch shows from other universes. The entire episode mostly seems like an episode of "Robot Chicken" as it seems like just a series of random short hilarious sketches. If I'm allowed to have a favorite part, I'd have to say the Gazorpazorpfield segment. The voices are great and Rick and Morty themselves make an awesome joke about the voice actors. Then again, the Baby Legs segment was great. You have no idea what's going to show up next in this episode and it's worth it to see every part.

There's even a great subplot with the other family members that actually leads to some real heartwarming moments. It's great that the show has continuity, as Morty mentions that he actually came from another Universe himself. The way they go so well with the idea of the Multiverse just shows how this show uses its vast ideas in the biggest ways. The weird thing is that the most memorable part might be the very ending. It is seriously one of the most unexpected and heartwarming things the show has ever done. I don't want to spoil it, but let me tell you it really puts a whole new perspective on the episode.

Be sure to stay after the credits. ****.
