Rick and Morty is an American adult animated science-fiction sitcom created by Justin Roiland and Dan Harmon for Cartoon Network's nighttime programming block Adult Swim. It is distributed internationally by Warner Bros. Television Distribution. The series follows the misadventures of Rick Sanchez, a cynical mad scientist, and his good-hearted but fretful grandson Morty Smith, who split their time between domestic life and interdimensional adventures that take place across an infinite number of realities, often traveling to other planets and dimensions through portals and on Rick's flying saucer. The general concept of Rick and Morty relies on two conflicting scenarios: domestic family drama, and an alcoholic grandfather dragging his grandson into hijinks.
Roiland voiced the eponymous characters, with Chris Parnell, Spencer Grammer, and Sarah Chalke voicing the rest of Rick and Morty's family. The series originated from an animated short parody film of Back to the Future created by Roiland for Channel 101, a short-film festival cofounded by Harmon. Since its debut, the series has received critical acclaim for its originality, creativity, and humor. It has been nominated for three Primetime Emmy Awards for Outstanding Animated Program and won the award in 2018 and 2020. The series has also received two Annie Awards. At times, the series has been the most viewed television comedy for adults between 18 and 24. The popularity of Rick and Morty has made it a hundred-million dollar merchandising and media franchise.
The sixth season premiered on September 4, 2022, and consists of ten episodes. A seventh season was confirmed as part of a long-term deal with Cartoon Network that ordered 70 new episodes, which renewed the series through to a tenth season. Adult Swim cut ties with Roiland in 2023 amid allegations of domestic abuse and announced it would be recasting his roles.
In 2012, Harmon was briefly fired from Community. Adult Swim, searching for a more prime-time, \"hit\" show,[18] shortly afterward approached Harmon, who initially viewed the channel as unfit for his style. He was also unfamiliar with animation and his process for creating television focused more heavily on dialogue, characters, and story.[15] Instead, he phoned Roiland to inquire if he had any ideas for an animated series. Roiland immediately brought up the idea of using the Doc and Mharti characters, renamed Rick and Morty.[14] At first, Roiland wanted the show's run time to consist of one eleven-minute segment, but Adult Swim pushed for a half-hour program.[18] Harmon felt the best way to extend the voices into a program would be to build a family around the characters, while Adult Swim development executive Nick Weidenfeld suggested that Rick be Morty's grandfather. Having pitched multiple television programs that did not get off the ground, Roiland was initially very unreceptive to others attempting to give notes on his pitch.[14] Prior to developing Rick and Morty, he had created three failed animated pilots for Fox, and he had begun to feel \"burned out\" with developing television.[15]
Many episodes are structured with use of a story circle, a Harmon creation based largely on Joseph Campbell's monomyth, or The Hero's Journey. Its two-act structure places the act break at an odd location in the stages of the monomyth: after The Meeting with the Goddess, instead of Atonement with the Father.[19] Roiland has stated his and Harmon's intentions for the series to lack traditional continuity, opting for discontinuous storylines \"not bound by rules\".[26] He has also confirmed that the writers avoid revisiting old tropes from the show's past, \"in fear of that coming off as disingenuous fan service.\"[27] In producing the series' first season, episodes were occasionally written out of order. For example, \"Rick Potion #9\" was the second episode written for the series, but was instructed to be animated as the fifth, as it would make more sense within the series' continuity.[12]
In May 2012, Adult Swim unveiled its development slate that included a Rick and Morty pilot from Harmon and Roiland,[41] which was eventually picked up to series in October 2012, as one of the network's first primetime original shows.[42] The first season premiered in December 2013 and concluded in April 2014. It comprised eleven episodes (including the pilot), and aired Mondays at 10:30 pm ET/PT.[43]
Adult Swim renewed Rick and Morty for a third season in August 2015, shortly after a successful second-season premiere.[47] The two co-creators and executive producers expressed their delight at the series' popularity.[48] The season premiered unannounced on April 1, 2017, as part of an April Fools' Day prank. The remaining episodes began airing weekly almost four months later, continuing in the same time slot from season two, and the initial airing concluded in October 2017.[49] Although it was originally intended for the season to consist of fourteen episodes, as a result of production delays it eventually comprised only ten.[50]
Following the conclusion of the show's third season, co-creators Harmon and Roiland wanted to have assurance that there would be many more seasons of Rick and Morty in the future, so that they would be able to focus on the show and minimize their involvement in other projects.[51] Additionally, Harmon had expressed his wish for the upcoming fourth season to consist of more than ten episodes.[52] In May 2018, after prolonged contract negotiations, Adult Swim announced a long-term deal with the creators, ordering 70 new episodes over an unspecified number of seasons.[53][54] Roiland was confident that this big renewal deal would allow the creators to minimize the gaps between seasons to no more than a year,[55] as they would be able to schedule their time around the show and \"keep the machine going.\"[56] In January 2023, it was confirmed that the long-term deal had renewed the series through to a tenth season.[57]
In the United Kingdom, public-service broadcaster Channel 4 outbid Netflix and began airing the series with season 4, which represents its first pickup by an international television channel.[78] Season 4 was originally scheduled to premiere on Channel 4 in January 2020; viewer complaints resulted in the broadcaster moving the first episode forward to November 20 on E4.[79]
The general formula of Rick and Morty consists of the juxtaposition of two conflicting scenarios: an extremely selfish, alcoholic grandfather dragging his grandson along for interdimensional adventures, intercut with domestic family drama.[14][18] Co-creator Dan Harmon has described the series as a cross between Matt Groening's two shows The Simpsons and Futurama, balancing family life with heavy science fiction.[22] Comparisons have been drawn to House of Cosbys, a show created by Justin Roiland, for having similar bits such as characters announcing themselves (Mr. Meeseeks/Curiosity Cosby).[83] The series is inspired by British-style storytelling, as opposed to traditional American family TV stories.[12] Harmon has stated that his inspiration behind much of the concept and humor for the series comes from various British television series, such as The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and Doctor Who. He figures that the audience will only understand developments from Morty's point of view, but stated \"we don't want to be the companions. We want to hang out with the Doctor, we idolize the Doctor, but we don't think like him, and that's really interesting.\"[84]
The series addresses the insignificance of human existence as compared to the size of the universe, with no recognizable divine presence, as described by Lovecraft's philosophy of cosmicism.[87] The characters of the show deal with cosmic horror and existential dread, either by asserting the utility of science over magic or by choosing a life in ignorant bliss.[88] However, as Joachim Heijndermans of Geeks notes, none of them appear able to handle the absurd and chaotic nature of the universe, as Jerry gets by through denial, and Rick is a \"depressed, substance-addicted, suicidal mess\".[89]
Rick and Morty holds an average approval rating of 95% on review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes for the entire series.[106] David Weigand of San Francisco Chronicle described it as \"offbeat and occasionally coarse... the take-away here is that it works\". He praised the animation direction by James McDermott for being \"fresh, colorful and as wacky as the script\", and states that the series possesses \"shades of Futurama, South Park and even Beetlejuice\", ultimately opining that its humor felt \"entirely original\".[107] Neil Genzlinger of The New York Times praised the series and stated that it was \"Grandparenting at its unhinged finest.\"[108] In a review shortly after the second-season premiere, Sean Sebastian of Junkee said that although the crude animation and over-the-top voice acting might have discouraged some viewers to continue watching, Rick and Morty is \"exceptionally well-made\" and that \"the more you dissect it, the more you find it has to say.\"[86]
On May 20, 2021, Adult Swim announced a short spin-off series centred on the Vindicators team (Supernova, Vance Maxiumus, Alan Rails, Crocubot and Noob Noob) previously seen on the episode, \"Vindicators 3: The Return of Worldender\" to be in development, alongside spin-offs from other Adult Swim shows like Aqua Teen Hunger Force, Robot Chicken, and Your Pretty Face Is Going to Hell. The 10-episode series, Vindicators 2 was released in July 2022.[145][146]
On April 1, 2015, a Rick and Morty comic book adaptation debuted with its first monthly issue, entitled \"BAM!\"[150] The series was initially written by Zac Gorman and illustrated by CJ Cannon.[151] Artist Tom Fowler wrote a multi-issue story arc that began in March 2016.[152] Using the television series' established premise of alternate timelines, the first two volumes of the comic book expressly features the Rick and Morty (and supporting cast) of a different timeline, allowing the comics to tell stories without conflicting with the canon of the show.[153] From the third volume onwards, with the departure of Gorman as writer and his replacement with Kyle Starks, the series switched focus to display the off-screen adventures of the specific Rick and Morty of the television series, keeping in the canon of the show, with the Ricks and Mortys of different timelines forming the basis for backup stories.[154] 59ce067264
