Thoughts on villians (non traditional) and a Tammy & Phoenixperson spin off

My Original on Reddit:

Hi

I hope it's okay to share a few ideas I have had for a long time..

Firstly.. who really.. I mean really can challenge Rick?.. pretty much no-one and isn't that part of the point of the show.. isn't introducing a character that *could* challenge him only devaluing the show as a whole?.. well tbh yes. And Rick himself said that he ends up partying with half the people who try to kill him.. we are in morally ambiguous territory, but there are more non traditional 'villains' that could play a bigger part.. of course we have 'evil Morty'.

What happens after Evil Morty's story arc? My first thought is Cthulhu (ka-thoo-loo) from the initial credits.. I would leave it to the writers to create the backstory themselves, anything I would suggest would be trite and hacky.

Tammy & Phoenixperson

Every show that has this level of success has a spin off, not to mention the level of pressure on the core team must be great. I suggest a second team bringing an 'off season' second show. This would alleviate the core team's (Rick and Morty) pressure, giving more time to create a new season without so many crazy fans.. giving fans their fix for R&M without the direct need for the core team to be there at every stage.

How would that work Dava?

Well.. I imagine, the second team waits until the core team has their scripts finalized and recorded and then the second team starts writing their scripts and recording.

Plot?.. I imagine, a diametrically opposed 'anti-villain'.. that Tammy believes she is *actually* protecting reality from Rick Sanchez, but is willing to employ *any and all* methods to end him. We wouldn't need to see them in each other episodes except for a massive crossover finale .. mentions of of the affects of what Tammy and Phoenix do should be felt, and vice versa, I feel this would add an extra layer of easter egg hunting to both shows.

Isn't this a traditional villain situation?

You could argue that and would have some points of the debate on your side.. however the central theme would be very much about Tammy's heroics.. imagine her like the opposite to Rick in philosophy.. she is T-Total, she believes in the oneness of everything*, that actions not only have consequences but create a greater plan of existence.. to her and the people she helps, she is *truly* the hero of her story.

Not to mention.. well.. I'm all about men's rights, 3rd gen feminists are breaking the balance that 2nd gen feminists (70s/80s) set up.. but I also enjoy gender equality. It might be nice to have a strong female lead opposing Rick. She's not as smart (nothing to do with gender, just that's the point of the show... Rick is the smartest creature alive) but is resourceful, determined, resilient (hard to kill) and convinced she is righteous.

The premise would be she would travelling around with Phoenixperson looking for powerful enough artifacts that could kill 'The Rick'.. while trying to find such artifacts she ends up helping the locals solve their problems in morally ambiguous ways. To her 'kill the bad guys = save the day' as an opposite to Rick's; he'll probably be partying with them later.

What do people think? trite? mundane? A necessary evil?*

Dava

*(if you haven't played the game 'Everything'.. recommended. Being read poetry while being shown the entire universe is super chilled)

* (see what I did there?.. Tammy's theme) no evil for evil's sake.. but smaller evil to overcome greater evils. Also.. the core team can continue working as they did.. incorporating the last season of T&PP into their next season if they wish as easter eggs. But who am I to tell any writers who happen across this post how to suck easter eggs.. they know.

Thoughts on Murder Sentencing..and some on adultery..

Hi WWW

Having some random thoughts.. was watching the TV show 'Dead to Me'.. and. well, here's some thoughts..


First Degree Murder: The victim was either; unknown to the perpetrator and through no aggravation or provocation was murdered. OR was known to the perpetrator but did nothing to cause aggravation or provocation that warranted a reaction. All children aged 7yo or under who were murdered would be First Degree. (I'm thinking if a child kills your child.. and the adult kills the second child murderer, this could constitute as provocation.. so the adult could NOT be tried for First Degree Murder)

25 to life. no parole.

Second Degree Murder: The victim was known to the perpetrator but only caused minor aggravation or provocation that warranted a much lesser reaction. If the person was unknown if is unlikely they cause enough provocation to warrant a reaction.. but if it was their first meeting, the provocation has to be judged.

12.5 to 25. parole only after 20 years.

Third Degree Murder: A form of greater homicide, if a builder uses inferior materials for a building and said building collapsed, not only should there be a civil suit but the criminal suit should be trying the person or persons responsible for incarceration.

8 to 25 years. parole only after 15 years.

Culpable Homicide: With some provocation, threat to self of injury, family or property. Could also be innocent of this crime due to trespassing or *great* provocation which (with *great* provocation) would make the person innocent.

3 to 8 years. parole only after 4 years.

Inculpable Homicide: Great provocation but no threat to self of injury, family or property. If the person was commiting a crime and killing them ended the crime.. such as trespassing on property owned by the perpetrator.

6 months to 3 years. parole at any time from 6 months onwards.

Crime of Passion: If the two people are adulterers, I say the perpetrator is innocent. Adultery is equally as evil as murder, in this case imho the crimes cancel each other out.

Adultery.. not a murder but equally as evil, I would like to see men's rights include the ability to prosecute both civil and criminal suits against women who are adulterers .. but why not men??.. of course men should be equally prosecuted against with both civil and criminal law suits.


Adultery:

If the person has no assets, then while in prison and working the money then goes to adulteree. Once the adulterer leaves prison the percent continues to be paid to the adulteree for life. Unless the adulteree gives up this right.

Civil:
Married 1 year, involved 2-6 years total: 30% of all the adulterers wealth and possessions.
Married 2 years, involved 3-7 years total: 32% of all the adulterers wealth and possessions.
Married 3 years, involved 4-8 years total: 34% of all the adulterers wealth and possessions.

and so on up until 100%.

Criminal:
One incident/one person: 1 year. no parole.
Long term/one person: 10 years. parole after 7 years.
One Incident/Multiple partners: 4 years. no parole.
Multiple incidents/Multiple partners: 15 years. no parole.

This payment is to compensate the adulteree for NOT killing the people involved.

*rant*
Right now.. the idea of justice for men who were faithful but cheated on is flippin clown shoes.. there is no justice... and 3rd Gen feminists are so busy taking all the attention it seems that justice isn't coming any time soon.
*rant over*
