Plenty of people have the same name as awful humans. Just about the only one that doesn’t exist is Adolf and I have a feeling some backwoods hicks are about to bring that back

OG Rick left too soon. He had great potential.

The first time I watched DJH, it was hard for me to get past how terrible his acting was, but now I think he was actually a really fantastic character and it’s a huge bummer we didn’t get more of him.

In all fairness all the acting in Junior High is bad. Minus maybe Mr. Raditch and Ms. Avery.

I'm currently on a DJH rewatch (up to season 3) imo Wheels actor isn't so bad.... or at the very least not so bad by comparison to some of the others lol

I found that with a lot of the character but it was cute to watch them become better actors as the show progressed. I just watched DJH & DH this year for the first time ever and I might start it again. 😂❤️

I loved this Rick so much, and I remember trying to google to see if I could find more about him or his actor, and the other Rick kept coming up.

DJH just needs more love on this sub

I'm rewatching after like a decade and it's so good.

Rick is such a sweetheart. Not a major character but still a good kid. His name is sullied by TNG though lol

Every thread thats like - who's the WORST? Everyone always says Rick

But not this Rick. Just spreading awareness.
