Wuba lub lub! The wait is nearly over for Rick and Morty fans

  • Rick and Morty is returning to TVs, laptops, and all of pop-culture in November this year
  • It was confirmed June last year that the season 4 was underway
  • A schwifty 70 additional episodes of the show have been confirmed
  • But there is no word if Pickle Rick will also be returning

Mark your calendars and grab some of that elusive schezwan sauce, Rick and Morty will be crash landing back into our lives this November.

This exciting news came wrapped up in a Tweet from Adult Swim featuring the grandfather and grandson duo themselves revealing the date. Fans of this cult-cartoon will know all too well that the only thing Rick and Morty does better than confuse us, is make us wait what feels like an eternity for new seasons.

The wait with the second and third season was an entire year and a half. This is something the creators are cruelly aware of as seasons in the past have ended with characters saying we’ll have to “wait like a year and a half” for our next fix.

This comes as Justin Roiland, co-creator of the show, promises part of the goal with Rick and Morty now is not only quality comedy, but comedy we don’t have to wait literal years for.

As Roiland told Polygon: “We’re not going to do these long breaks, these chasms in between seasons anymore. We’re going to schedule vacation time and just keep the machine going. It’s going to be really cool.” 

If all this wasn’t good enough news, we want to remind you that the team have confirmed that there are 70 episodes of the cartoon to come. Given that each season so far has had 10 or so episodes, we can hope for upwards of a near unbelievable 7 seasons?! This would mean Adult Swim would have around 100 episodes under its belt.

There aren’t really any details on the plot and stories that will be in the new season, though it’s basically certain it’ll be as crazy as ever.
