"Rick and Morty" Season 4: I'm Mr. Meeseeks! Here's Your SDCC Preview! [VIDEO]
With fans of Adult Swim's Rick and Morty now having an end month to look forward to after WarnerMedia's 2019 May Upfronts saw Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland announce that their hit animated series would officially return November 2019, the excitement is starting to grow.

Oh no, this order was for a whopping seventy episodes– which increases the chances of there being a Noob Noob solo episode that much more.
Not to be left out of the celebration, Harmon released his own shower-themed announcement and offered good tidings to the fans:
If anyone at the time thought Adult Swim had any doubts about their decision, the network cleared that up pretty quickly:
