For me, it got better in the last two seasons.
There was a season or two while he was there where it went so dark and didn’t have the balance it had in the first seasons. IMO
But I also don’t think he was a driving force behind the plot/writing. Maybe I’m wrong. I don’t know how much correlation/causation should be drawn from him being forced out and the tone or quality shifts.
Edit: I just read someone else’s comment in this thread that confirms he was a menace during the seasons where it felt like it went off the rails. Where I felt it lost the balance the show originally had.
off the rails is the best Rick and Morty.
Well, for me, off the rails means it lost the heart it once had. But to each their own.
