Rick and Morty S8's big, risky bet explained.

For its first few seasons, Rick and Morty didn’t have a primary antagonist. Rick and Morty’s cast of characters went on weekly adventures, but there were few recurring characters outside the Smith family. Most characters who did show up repeatedly, like Jessica or Mr.
Rick and Morty’s Rick Prime arc justified Rick’s nihilistic outlook, but it also made the show’s tone darker. Rick and Morty season 7’s bleak ending to the storyline proved that all of Rick’s hard work was for nothing, as he got no catharsis from killing Rick Prime. Instead, he simply felt empty inside. Fortunately, Morty gave his grandfather a reason to live in the very next episode when an audit of their misadventures reminded Rick how much fun he had in earlier seasons.

Although Rick and Morty season 7’s returning characters included season 2’s Unity, the show was less concerned with its canon during those early years. There were plenty of moments that hinted at the deep depression beneath Rick’s cynical exterior, but Rick and Morty’s first two seasons were more focused on standalone adventures than establishing any consistent backstory.
