‘Rick and Morty’ is Green-Lit for Season 6

Our favorite cartoon duo is making a comeback, confirmed by co-creator Dan Harmon.

Rick and Morty co-creator Dan Harmon just revealed that the portal-hopping duo will return for a sixth season. 

While discussing his virtual table read for Community, Harmon discreetly mentioned the upcoming season via Instagram. “One more magical thing about today: the script we’re reading, Cooperative Polygraphy, is by Community and Rick and Morty alum Alex Rubens, who is BACK at RaM writing on season 6,” the caption states. 

The second-half of Season 4 returned on May 3rd, with only three more episodes left to air on Adult Swim. In regards to Season 5 of Rick and Morty, actor Chris Parnell confirmed that storylines are well into development for next season, but recording sessions are still to be determined. 

“We have not started recording Season 5, but I know they have, certainly, episodes written and have it boarded to a certain extent. But I don’t know when we’ll start recording,” Parnell told IGN.

With a headstart on Season 6, fans will get to see more action-packed, hilarious events with Rick and Morty for two more confirmed seasons.

Today we Zoom a special reunion table read of the Community episode in which Pierce bestows frozen sperm from his grave. The incredible Walton Goggins can’t make it so Pedro Pascal will play Pierce’s lawyer. He’s on some Disney show where Boba Fett’s in college with Yoda’s niece. In keeping with that theme, the part of Troy will be played by Lando. Yes, for real, the whole gang is back together. We got Horse Girl, we got Card Shark, we got ‘em all. I don’t know the details of when it will be available, but don’t worry about missing it, we’re doing it for you. Also streaming it live could never happen because we have to edit out @yvettenicolebrown’s rants about storming Area 51. One more magical thing about today: the script we’re reading, Cooperative Polygraphy, is by Community and Rick and Morty alum Alex Rubens, who is BACK at RaM writing on season 6. He was wearing a suit in yesterday’s Zoom session because during lunch he was attending a Zoom funeral. Not a joke. Hard to tell jokes from life these days. These are odd times but everybody that worked on the show has been feeling the love and joy from all the rookie and veteran Community fans binging the show on Netflix. I’m going to go take the first pre-table read shower of my life. Sincere love to the fans and the cast, thanks for the best pre-Cody years of my life #sixseasonsandamovie
