Having wrapped a fifth season of Rick and Morty that turned out to be a major game-changer for Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland's Adult Swim series moving forward, you would figure there would be more than enough in the show's here-and-now to obsess over until the sixth season And yet, we can't stop obsessing over[...]

Well, like most things that are pretty cool ideas?
