| ‘Rick and Morty’ Season 4 Confirmed As Adult Swim Orders 70 New Episodes — Yes, 70! |
|
Because of how massively popular Rick and Morty has become, it was automatically assumed that a season four was on the way. Fans knew it would be a while, but one day it would arrive and that patience would be rewarded. Then came the troubling surprise that, despite fans already being nearly half a year into the wait for season four, that season hadn’t even been ordered yet. Much worry spread. At the time I theorized that perhaps Adult Swim was just as excited as the rest of us about the show and forgot to do the proper paperwork. Or perhaps they wanted to top that memorable April Fools’ Day joke. Whatever the case, all has now been remedied and all is well in the world once again (sorta) as Adult Swim has not only confirmed season four, but they’ve ordered 70 new episodes. 70. FREAKIN’. EPISODES. That’s more than double the amount of episodes we’ve gotten since the show debuted back in December of 2013 to look forward to. Show creators Justin Roiland and Dan Harmon made the big announcement that they were heading back to work, rather hygienically, in a video you can find below with the full announcement.

| Wait, What? ‘Rick and Morty’ Season 4 Hasn’t Even Been Ordered Yet
We’ve already had a “wait, what?” moment with Rick and Morty when the premiere episode for the long-awaited third season was surprise aired on April Fools’ Day almost one year ago. The wait from season two to season three was nearly two years for fans, so it was clear that the wait to season four would also be lengthy. Like other popular shows such as Game of Thrones and Stranger Things, it looked likely we wouldn’t be seeing new Rick and Morty until at least 2019. That could still happen, but it turns out that one rather crucial step in creating a new season is the network actually ordering it. Who’da thunkit?! Despite the show being immensely popular and a season four seeming like a no-brainer, it appears that Adult Swim has not actually given the greenlight yet.

| McDonald’s Might Actually Bring Back Szechuan Sauce After ‘Rick and Morty’ Season 3 Episode |
|
Fans of Rick and Morty were treated to a massive surprise from Adult Swim and creators Justin Roiland and Dan Harmon on April Fools’ Day when the first episode of season three—the new season said fans have been waiting for since 2015—was aired without a single word being spoken of it before it began playing. If you’ve seen the episode, you know that a particular McDonald’s McNugget sauce—seen above being enjoyed by Galactic Federation agent Cornvelious Daniel (voiced by Firefly and Castle star Nathan Fillion)—played a significant role in the episode. The sauce was a special Szechuan flavor created in 1998 to coincide with the release of the Disney animated movie Mulan, and after the movie had come and gone the sauce disappeared. It’s been nearly 20 years now, but the episode of Rick and Morty has made enough of a splash that even McDonald’s has taken notice, and it looks like there’s a chance the sauce could be revived.
