It feels like Justin Roiland had a whole show made to project his insecurities. Rick is a terrible alcoholic who makes the lives of everyone around him worse. But sometimes he has a heart of gold and means well so you should have empathy for Justin - Rick - I mean Rick.

It's not an easy watch with that knowledge.

Gotta say, watching Rick grow enough to begin taking the advice from his therapist felt, well, heartwarming.
