Probably this one where a bunch of fans attacked a McDonald’s to get Szechuan sauce. Rick and Morty got some mainstream attention. People would say something like “You like R&M? You must be toxic.”
I feel like they’re more likely talking about Jeff Roiland’s (edit: creator, one of the main writers, and voice actor for most male characters (including both Rick and Morty)) abuse allegations, after which they canned him as writer/ voice actor and the show kind of lost it’s flair.

You’re joking, right?
Roiland is a great voice actor, but the rambling “comedy” bits got old and repetitive real fast. I don’t miss them. That, and the new VOs hit it out of the park.
the scandal???
I assume they mean Justin Roiland being found out as a sexual predator of underage girls …

Personally, I think the new VAs are pretty good on their own. Morty even sounds a little better.
Tbh, the current and last season are great.
The voice actors are great. If I didn’t know about the change, I’d never have noticed
they really did do a great job replacing the voice actor
I just learned about it now. I didn’t notice.

Yeahh the Szechuan thing kinda tainted the whole show for me. It was a dumb bit that went too far and the cringe fallout still lingers…
