can you speak in simple words ? i dont understand majority of your paragraphs.golfmiketango wrote:Dan Harmon has stated that a core idea of the show is to try to construct a suspension-of-disbelief-compatible context in which parents would allow their kid(s) to hang out with a dangerous mad scientist type and to go on time-travelling adventures together (a la Back to the Future). So this is kind of in line with that: "when you're successfully manipulated by a sociopath here are some things that might happen". Note the striking parallels between S03E01 and S01E01. It was always supposed to be a character driven show, not an Aqua-Teen-Hunger-Force-style anything-goes zany-skit-show-as-animated-sitcom.
That stated, I haven't seen S03E03 yet; maybe it's too much. I am guessing some of these early season 3 episodes are a bit of a reaction against the tendency of season 2 to devolve into an ATHF-type plot process and maybe they'll find a better balance as the season progresses and the writers feel they've firmly established that this is a soap-opera, not a sitcom (although, really, I'd say it's probably meant to be a Jim-Burrows-style sitcom more than either, where there's an episodic structure in a dynamic context where characters grow and relationships evolve over time).
