I enjoyed many parts the show but didn’t love it obsessively like some people. I think that it’s popular because
it’s geeky and fourth-wall-breaky - which is where the “high IQ” idea comes from,
it’s actually completely accessible to low-IQ people, as evidenced by the fact that it’s popular with people who brag about having a high IQ,
it’s silly and slapstick, which when combined with point (1) creates
constant reversals of expectation, which are a very effective form of humor,
it’s in-your-face and edgy, which appeals to people who like to think of themselves as rejecting the mainstream, despite still being very mainstream, and finally
it is extremely memeable.
A winning formula regardless of the writers’ creativity. And some episodes had a pretty creative premise. The Microverse Battery episode could stand side by side with The Simpsons before The Simpsons turned into a parody of itself.
Rick and Morty is not intelligent

No, but the show was fun.
I could never get into it. I tried. I truly don’t understand how or why people find it good but a lot of people love that show. I’m not one of them.

I agree (at points)
You probably just didn’t understand all the intellectual jokes for high IQ individuals like myself
Bold of you to assume you have a high IQ.
you’re just mad you aren’t enlightened enough to understand the eloquent humor of pickle rick
To be fair you need a high IQ to understand
