No, we're pretty sure it has to do with your central nervous system being well aware of the fact that Carl & Aqua Teen Hunger Force (Meatwad, Frylock, and Master Shake) are back in the second of Adult Swim's upcoming four new digital series, Aquadonk Side Pieces Created by Matt Maiellaro and Dave Willis, the[...]

It's hard to believe that it's been five weeks since we jumped down the rabbit hole that is the ever-growing conspiracy between Adult Swim's Rick and Morty & HBO Max's Peacemaker creator James Gunn As you are most likely aware, someone has been working with Dan Harmon & Justin Roiland's dimension-hopping duo to infiltrate Gunn's[...]

The trio first developed the project as a play before shifting to a web series, with Adult Swim ordering a pilot in 2018 and giving the okay for a series the following year Now here's a look at what our Debras have in store for us with a look at the newest trailer, followed by[...]

More heartbreaking news as Rick and Morty co-creator Justin Roiland has confirmed the passing of Jerry's little brother, Mharti Michaels.

With all of the coverage we've given in the past to Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland's Adult Swim animated series Rick and Morty and with the coverage we have planned for the future, this is the one we wished we didn't have to report On Sunday, Roiland reported that his dog Jerry Michaels– his best[...]

Our line-up of news, opinions & commentary for this morning includes Adult Swim's April Fool's Day finding our Pibby trying to avert a cartoon apocalypse, Steven Moffat talking (or not talking) about Russell T Davies' ideas for Doctor Who, Gillian Anderson offering the conditions she would need to even consider a return to The X-Files,[...]

So remember when Adult Swim debuted Come and Learn with Pibby! last Halloween? Crafted by Dodge Greenley, the special found Pibby ripped out of her safe, preschool world and thrown into unknown lands And if she wants to stop the cartoon apocalypse then she's going to need to grow up, get caught up, and embrace[...]

Did you really think Three Busy Debras stars Sandy Honig (Isn't It Romantic), Mitra Jouhari (Friends From College, High Maintenance), and Alyssa Stonoha (Rules of Cool) didn't have more up their white sleeves than just a first-look preview at Adult Swim's Amy Poehler (Parks and Recreation)-produced comedy series? With one of our biggest obsessions set to[...]

Adult Swim's Smiling Friends is a fantastic show, full of some hilarious content in every episode and one minor (albeit not as minor in our hearts) character, Glep, often shining in the spotlight. Glep Image Source: YouTube/Adult SwimThe chaotic spitting tiny dancer stole my heart with the quick movements of his little feet[...]

Okay, maybe we've been having a little too much fun with what Adult Swim and Dan Harmon & Justin Roiland's animated Adult Swim series Rick and Morty have been doing lately on social media when it comes to the upcoming sixth season Okay, maybe it wasn't the most controversial question about the series' return that[...]

A continuation of the Adult Swim series, the special brings back Frylock, Meatwad & Master Shake, crime fighters who never actually fight crime, as they move on to the next stage in their bizarre daily lives Now, voice actor Dana Snyder aka Master Shake is offering an update on how things are progressing on the[...]

The celebration of Toonami's 25th anniversary has made its way over to the world of a highly anticipated horror anime, Uzumaki based on the manga of the same title by Japanese manga artist Junji Ito.

What's the best way to spice up your March Madness…or Saint Patrick's Day…or Spring Break? With a Pickle Rick Frosty, of course! Wendy's partnered with the Adult Swim staple show Rick and Morty to bring "Morty's Mayhem", a pop-up fast food experience offering a free taste of their fries, hot honey chicken biscuit, frosty-ccino, and[...]

It's nice to see Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland's animated Adult Swim series Rick and Morty taking a break from shilling for Wendy's (with love & respect because bills need to get paid) to get back to addressing the important matter at hand And that important matter would be addressing the demands for a sixth season[...]

If there's one thing we've always appreciated about Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland's animated Adult Swim series it's that when it goes the "corporate partnership" route, it does so by owning up to it without ever dialing back who the dimension-hopping duo truly is So when we saw that Rick and Morty was teaming up[...]

But the time for despair is now over, with Adult Swim releasing a first look at the second season of the Amy Poehler (Parks and Recreation)-produced comedy series ahead of its April 24th return And any concerns you may have had about our Debras becoming a little less Debra over the past year? Well, let's[...]

And then there's the matter of the most important question any fan could have about Season 6, which Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland's Adult Swim animated series did head-on So now seems as good of a time as any to take a breather and have a little fun For example, their take on The Batman[...]

Thankfully, the good folks over at the Rick and Morty Instagram account were kind enough to address the most important question out there about the upcoming season. Image: Screencap Here's a look at the Adult Swim animated series tackling the tough questions head-on without a moment of hesitation and with the kind of definitive response that makes[...]

"The Rick and Morty/James Gunn Affair" Day #16: Prince Nebulon & Morty, Jr. enter the scene as Gunn tries to make some suspects sweat.

The Rick and Morty/James Gunn mystery continued into Day #13 as Phoenixperson entered the scene and Gunn began compiling suspects.

What is the purpose? What message are they trying to send? Who is working with them on the inside? These questions and more remained unanswered- as does a new one that sprang up today after Gunn revealed that Adult Swim's animated money-makers are now putting the signal out to The Vindicators But it begs the[...]

Rick and Morty continue dialing up the mind games against James Gunn, this time rolling out Jerry and his lameness to bum him out.

As of this earlier this evening, we learned that Hulu's Solar Opposites and Adult Swim's Rick and Morty have another thing in common besides Justin Roiland and Mike McMahan Production workers at both adult animated series have filed to join The Animation Guild (TAG) to collectively bargain for their first union contract Positions listed as[...]

After making sure he was crystal clear that he loves and respects Dan Harmon & Justin Roiland's animated Adult Swim series way too much to ever consider a live-action adaptation, we thought things would be smoothed over between Peacemaker series creator James Gunn and Rick and Morty But alas, Gunn's Guardians of the Galaxy Vol[...]

Needing a break from the Rick and Morty/James Gunn stuff, Justin Roiland was kind enough to share a look at a "Kinder" but not gentler Rick.

When asked if he would direct a live-action version of the Adult Swim series, Gunn didn't waste time shooting down the idea with some seriously high praise "I would never I just couldn't The animated series is just so beautiful & perfect I would never touch it One of the greatest TV shows ever," Gunn[...]

Unfortunately, this time around? "We're getting no closer to an answer to who is doing this." Dammit… Rick and Morty (Image: Screencap/Marvel Studios) In fact, Gunn threw some love at the Adult Swim series during a recent interview about his HBO Max series Peacemaker When asked about his approach to end credits, Gunn responded by saying that[...]

Just when we thought the answer was at hand, the Rick and Morty-James Gunn mystery only deepened with a surprise appearance by Pickle Rick.

At this point, does it really matter if it's about whether someone wants him to write an episode of Dan Harmon & Justin's Roiland's Adult Swim animated series or a steady stream of warnings from the dimension-hopping duo to him that the galaxy has more than enough "guardians"? Peacemaker series creator James Gunn's Guardians of the[...]
