I enjoyed many parts the show but didn’t love it obsessively like some people. I think that it’s popular because
it’s geeky and fourth-wall-breaky - which is where the “high IQ” idea comes from,
it’s actually completely accessible to low-IQ people, as evidenced by the fact that it’s popular with people who brag about having a high IQ,
it’s silly and slapstick, which when combined with point (1) creates
constant reversals of expectation, which are a very effective form of humor,
it’s in-your-face and edgy, which appeals to people who like to think of themselves as rejecting the mainstream, despite still being very mainstream, and finally
it is extremely memeable.
A winning formula regardless of the writers’ creativity. And some episodes had a pretty creative premise. The Microverse Battery episode could stand side by side with The Simpsons before The Simpsons turned into a parody of itself.
Rick and Morty is not intelligent
No, but the show was fun.
I agree (at points)
I could never get into it. I tried. I truly don’t understand how or why people find it good but a lot of people love that show. I’m not one of them.

you’re just mad you aren’t enlightened enough to understand the eloquent humor of pickle rick
You probably just didn’t understand all the intellectual jokes for high IQ individuals like myself
Bold of you to assume you have a high IQ.
To be fair you need a high IQ to understand
