Won't that make them even worse?! I can barely remember anything about this season outside of the brilliant Rickopolis episode so I'm gonna say it kinda sucked. I popped big time for Mr Poopy Butthole's passive aggressive monologue to the fans at the end though OOO-WEEEE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolfan in NYC Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 So Dan Harmon confirmed yesterday that Season 4 isn't being worked on because... Adult Swim hasn't ordered it yet. So, now since that's the bad news, here's a Run The Jewels videos starring Rick & Morty: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cliff Hanger Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 1) I am way more okay with the idea of the series ending than I would have thought. I love what we've gotten, but I won't be angry if we don't get more. 2) I need to seek out the rest of Run the Jewels; I never did before because they were the act that every white person I know who kind of listens to hip hop but not really said I had to check out, ensuring that spite would keep me from giving them the time of day. But now I had to actually hear and like one of their songs, dammit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(BP) Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Harmon was on Smodcast this week and briefly mentioned the ongoing contract negotiations had somehow been complicated. I haven't listened to Harmontown in months, so maybe he elaborates there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 I was talking about this with a friend and he wondered if maybe Adult Swim got cold feet over Harmon's obvious issues. I hadn't thought of that before, but if I'm an exec and thinking about handing over millions of dollars, I'm going to be skittish about handing it over to an alcoholic.

Dolfan in NYC Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Alcoholism is hardly the greatest of vices in the creative world. And judging from the borderline mainstream success of R&M, I'm guessing Harmon and Roiland are looking for a significant payday. Which may be money AS just doesn't have to spend.

Victator Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 I can't imagine they are asking for something insane or that AS does not have money for one of the biggest hits they have ever had. They are asleep at the wheel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(BP) Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 It's weird. Harmon was talking about finally being a millionaire from the new production deal after sinking all of his money into opening his animation studio, and that was when season three was still airing. I don't think it has anything to do with him personally, but maybe Adult Swim wanted some more guarantees in place about deadlines after last season's production was so fraught.

Curt McGirt Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Remember, Adult Swim are the same gang that refused to do the final season of Metalocalypse despite EXTREME pressure from its fanbase and creators. Who knows what goes on in their heads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 They also aired "Too Many Cooks," which while funny, is still what I think of the most when I think of AS. They're the channel that just puts up whatever the fuck without any rhyme or reason. So yeah, who knows what goes on in their heads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Adult Swim are very random and always have been about what they greenlight and when stuff shows up on the air again. It's a very oddly ran segment of the network. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 I just figured the same story manatees from that episode of South Park are the same ones running AS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Sorrow Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 They’d be insane to let it go . It’s a cash cow. They have Rick and Morty merch in stores now. You can get a toy portal gun, for crying out loud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheVileOne Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 The hardcore Rick and Morty fans are some of the absolute worst. Also, maybe don't talk trash to the guy you are so desperate to make a fourth season for the show you like so much on social media. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, yeah, but do you think Harmon is the only alcoholic creator/star in Hollywood. I kinda think there'd be a lot fewer shows on the air if networks only worked with "stable" creative types.

Which may be money AS just doesn't have to spend. This is my guess. Years ago, I got the impression the network was kinda run on a shoestring. Not sure what it's finances are like now, though. Sigh. We probably won't get another season of Rick and Morty, but will get six more seasons of Mr. Pickles. Though, that's kinda unfair to Mr. Pickles. I tend to dislike practically all the Sunday night Williams Street 15 min shows these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(BP) Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 I just turned on Adult Swim, and I don't know what the hell is happening, but I think it's a new Rick and Morty, but it may not be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spritenaut 32 Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Yeah, it was some sort of Rick & Morty parody (parodies?) done by someone else. Looked horrid. I didn't watch. Assume it was part of Adult Swim's April Fool's dealie. They did something similar during the Toonami block on Saturday. I'm old enough to remember when I actually liked Williams Street. Now I just automatically change the channel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheVileOne Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 For those who are missing Rick and Morty, I recommend Final Space on TBS. It's turning into quite the quality show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolfan in NYC Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 From this announcement, I'm not sure if this is them saying they got picked up for Seasons 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 OR if they're going to pull a Steven Universe and just toss them out in chunks at completely random times with little rhyme or reason. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 I wish Steven Universe didn't do that, but whenever new episodes pop up, it's always a good feeling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolfan in NYC Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 The right wing trolls have come for Dan Harmon. Adult Swim has said he's apologized for the old videos. R&M will not be affected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spritenaut 32 Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 I had no idea that was what Dan Harmon looked like. I always pictured someone much different. And, really, so long as people leave the cesspool of human DNA that is Twitter, does it really matter why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
