Sick and tired of hearing misinformed folks write off R&M as a youngsters (under 30) theme. I’m in my mid 40s and love watching Rick & Morty (as does my wife).
So, once and for all, if you are into R&M, please cast your vote for the age group you belong in. If you aren’t into R&M then this isn’t for you.
Quoted from Zablon:No need for this poll..we already know the majority of pinside have greying or totally grey hair.
Shows what you know. I’m totally bald.
I’m 53 and love the factual humor of the show. Science has never been funnier.
You should have put in an option that says they do not know or like R&M as the majority of members here are over 40 so your poll will show the 40+ categories higher as others.
I am 49 and really like R&M after some time getting into it. It is an aquired taste for sure. Of all the Pinball people I know in person, I am the only one that likes R&M, most do not even know the show.
Quoted from russdx:bit of a skewed poll as most ppl on this site are old men so results will just be 40+ lol
As a non-conformist Mummy I take offense to that. 
Quoted from underlord:As a non-conformist Mummy I take offense to that.
And old women 
Quoted from russdx:And old women
True. And they take offense to everything. Old battleaxes! 
Quoted from Who-Dey:I'm 54 and have never even heard of Rick and Morty. I'm not even joking.
Same here.
44 here. I have heard of the show, but have not watched an episode until the Spooky teaser. I am about 5-6 episodes in from various seasons. Some of the episodes are very good, others are not as great. Inconsistent.
Bump,who-day,and rai.I'm 69 and never heard of R&M,however I never heard of "Deadpool"either and its one of my favorite pins,so I'' wait and see on this one!
Quoted from Who-Dey:I'm 54 and have never even heard of Rick and Morty. I'm not even joking.
I have seen short clips, still not interested in the least but as the sales guys would say in the automotive world there is an ass for every seat. And I'm not being derogatory in any way, people just have different tastes.
Good on Spooky for doing something different, if I see it at a show I'll give it a spin. Be nice to see other small runs of different pins done on other themes too, healthy for the hobby IMHO. And I'm not talking about recycling/small runs like Woah Nellie, Can Crusher, Primus.
42 and love it. Don’t get thrown that it is animated. Animation is just the medium that it is delivered in. It is a very funny, very smart sci-fi comedy.
Quoted from Coolpinballdino:I'm 17 and enjoy watching Rick And Morty need to catch up on the new season.
17 yr old owning 83 pinball machines? Clearly I am doing something wrong.
I'm 45, and have been a fan of both of the creators of the show for far longer than most. I have followed Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland's careers since around 2005 when I was turned on to Channel 101.
I just watched it for the first time. Season 4 episode 1. It didn't really do much for me. I am happy though to hear that Spooky is making a machine for those would want one and hope that it shoots great.
I've heard of them, but haven't checked EM out, until now.
I'm 53.
Have been looking and I'm currently at season 2.
It gets better and better, even though i still prefer family guy and early season of southpark.
My kids watch gumball, which is still a mystery to me.
Just watched the first 2 episodes, the pilot was not for me but the second episode was a bit better.
Quoted from Who-Dey:I'm 54 and have never even heard of Rick and Morty. I'm not even joking.
In this same boat...
Quoted from rai:Think it’s on Hulu and I’ll give it a try.
It is on Hulu. I’m 50 and think the show is awesome.
Wouldn’t it make more sense to pose this question on a Rick and morty forum if you really want the “once and for all” answer?
It’s like me asking what the demographic is here for people who likes Dora the Explorer.
It’s still gonna skew old and white.

Wait...is there a DtE pin coming?!? What have you heard, its my dream theme...
I'll be 45 this coming week and really enjoy the show.
In the mid 90's my dad and I would stay up and watch Beavis and Butthead together on a regular basis.
He was in his mid-late 50s then and thought it was the funniest things.
I'm not sure there is a set age group among fans when it comes to cartoons with adult humor.
Seems like this genera of animation appeals to all age groups (less small children) as long as they enjoy a certain sense of humor.
Quoted from Coindork:I'm not sure there is a set age group among fans when it comes to cartoons with adult humor.
Archer causes me to laugh like hell.
Welp, this thread settles it, “once and for all.”
The average age of a Rick and Mort fan is aged 40-49. Shocker!
In an unrelated data point, the average age of a pinsider is between 40-49.
59 in one month from today. Love the show, best thing in years if not ever.
17 year old daughter loves it too.
I realize that there are plenty of uptight codgers my age who probably think "Last Man Standing" is the height of comedy, but can't wrap their heads around R&M. Why they feel the need to announce their inadequacy here is beyond me.
As a lifelong learner (seriously, for example I read books about advanced physics for fun), I refuse to age gracefully!
Quoted from kermit24:44 here. I have heard of the show, but have not watched an episode until the Spooky teaser. I am about 5-6 episodes in from various seasons. Some of the episodes are very good, others are not as great. Inconsistent.
47 here, and exactly what I think of it. Loved a few episodes, liked some others. It's okay. I find the sci-fi adventures and general bizarre humor to be the best parts, but the family drama/humor is usually cringy and irritating.
Quoted from VALIS666:but the family drama/humor is usually cringy and irritating.
yep same here.
Quoted from kermit24:17 yr old owning 83 pinball machines? Clearly I am doing something wrong.
I think that’s his family’s pins, AKA Dad’s

Happy Birthday!
