Can someone explain this show to me?
It's become somewhat of a cultural phenomenon. People love it. I usually like animated shows (probably watched every episode of Futurama at least 5 times) but I watched two episodes and found it to be pretty annoying and unfunny.
What am I missing?
Stick with it.

The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realize that they're not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Rick and Morty truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humour in Rick's existencial catchphrase "Wubba Lubba Dub Dub," which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev's Russian epic Fathers and Sons.
I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Dan Harmon's genius unfolds itself on their television screens. What fools... how I pity them.

Then, I caught on to the story line and found it hilarious. It is an absolutely great series.
