Today is a good day for anyone who has ever cracked open a can of refreshing seltzer and thought to themselves, "this could taste more like pickles, and also remind me of Rick and Morty." In connection to the upcoming Adult Swim Festival, the purveyor of animated weirdness has announced that it has partnered with Miracle Seltzer to create a limited-edition flavor of seltzer inspired by that one time mad scientist Rick (voiced by creator Justin Roiland) turned himself into a pickle. Here's the origin story of the Pickle Rick Miracle Seltzer, according to an official release: To …
The first Rick and Morty Season 5 clip has been released online, as revealed during the Adult Swim show’s Comic-Con@Home panel on Friday evening. The clip is not finished – the animation is still a little rough and the sound effects aren’t in – but it’s funny and compelling all the same. The clip begins with Rick facing death and Morty trying to help him escape from some planet/dimension (with a nice little Blade homage in the process). They touch down on Earth in the ocean, at which point Rick begins panicking, only to reveal he …
At long last we’ve reached the end of Rick and Morty Season 4, and in true Rick and Morty season finale fashion, "Star Mort Rickturn of the Jerri" is the episode that matters. Typically, the first and last episodes of the seasons have been the only ones that advance the overall “mythology” of the Rick and Morty universe. Specifically, this episode reveals that Rick did indeed make a clone of Beth at the end of the Season 3 episode "The ABCs of Beth", and sent one of them into space. Except, we’re not sure which one is the …
The ninth episode of Season 4 of Rick and Morty saw the titular inventor and grandson go on a guilt-trip journey to a distant planet to care for some children that look like Gumby fucked Clayface, and honestly, I’m not mad at it. It’s an extremely OK episode – one that is perfectly fine and funny but that I will forget about completely in a few weeks. But it does finally bring the whole family together for the first time in The Other Five, hitting some familiar beats in the process that I feel we’ve been missing …
Rick and Morty has made a name for itself for its caustic tone, its devil-may-care approach to storytelling, and its counterculture identity of being the show that proves that everything you like is stupid and that caring about the world is a waste of time. But where Rick and Morty really succeeds is in its gritty exploration of science fiction, and last night’s episode “The Vat of Acid Episode” reminded me why I fell in love with the series in the first place. While the previous two episodes have placed the sci-fi in the backseat to …
As Bojack Horseman said during the "Free Churro" episode of his titular show, "The first rule of a sitcom is that things can't change and people can't be happy." In order to keep the show going from season to season, the story has to reset at the beginning of each new season, no matter what kind of big changes the characters go through in the previous season. Rick and Morty has mostly followed this rule: Though aliens have invaded the planet and Rick has gone to prison in the past, things usually go back to normal in the …
Last night’s episode of Rick and Morty brought us back to more familiar territory, with the titular drunk maniac and his titular vacuous grandson trapped on an alien planet in which face-sucking parasites alter their minds into thinking Summer is a queen. Yeah, that’s a whole lot to absorb, but when compared to last week’s episode, which was literally about series co-creator Dan Harmon’s writing process, this was a breath of egg-farting fresh air. I promise that analogy will make sense once you’ve watched the episode. In case that wasn’t a …
In 2005, Seth MacFarlane followed up on the success of animated family sitcom Family Guy with a new yet familiar animated family sitcom American Dad! Critics and fans alike felt that the new series was little more than a carbon copy at the time, a port over of a successful formula that didn't look to reinvent the wheel but rather add more bells and whistles to it. Some thought that the newcomer would fizzle out before it really got going while others posited that both series were destined for cancellation sooner than later. Cut to 2020 when Family Guy …
Rick and Morty is known for taking long breaks in between seasons, but Season 4 marks the first time the show has gone on hiatus in the middle of an episode run. We last saw the titular drunk nihilistic scientist and his hapless grandson dealing with a bunch of Nazi snakes in an alternate timeline (it was a whole-assed thing). Nearly six months later, the duo is finally back for the second half of Season 4, which kicks off with Episode 6, “Never Ricking Morty”. And as the title suggests, we’re in for some supremely meta shenanigans. EXTREME …
As the clock ticks down to new Rick and Morty episodes, we have an exclusive look at an upcoming, Alien-spoofing Season 4 episode.
Rick and Morty's Jeff Loveness has reportedly been tapped to pen the script to the third Ant-Man film.
In these bleak times, we could all use a laugh, especially if those laughs remind us of how bleak everything is. Enter the return of Rick and Morty. The series was picked up for an additional seventy episodes over an unspecified number of seasons, but the first five episodes of Season 4 aired back in November. Now Adult Swim has released a trailer for "the other five", which means that, at least for now, Rick and Morty seasons will continue to be 10 episodes in length and that the plan is to space them out over six months, with five …
