Rick and Morty (2013)

Rick and Morty features LGBTQ+ representation primarily through the complex, pansexual hive mind Unity, whose relationship with Rick is explored with depth and agency. Rick himself exhibits a fluid sexuality. While some depictions are incidental, the show generally portrays queer identities as inherent aspects of its diverse characters and universe, avoiding harmful stereotypes and presenting them with dignity within its cynical narrative.

The show features Space Beth, a highly skilled warrior, who engages in and wins close-quarters physical combat against multiple male opponents using a melee weapon and martial arts.

The show frequently satirizes Christian themes and figures, often portraying religious belief as irrational, naive, or a source of conflict, aligning with Rick's cynical worldview.
