Rick and Morty Team Discuss "Rick: A Mort Well Lived"; S06E03 Preview

From the canon-crushing S06E01 "Solaricks" to an examination of simulation theory & organized religion in S06E02 "Rick: A Mort Well Lived" (check out our review here), no one can say that the sixth season of Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland's Rick and Morty is starting off slow or playing it safe. Now, Harmon and producer Steve Levy are taking viewers behind the scenes of this past weekend's episode for a deeper dive into how splitting Morty's consciousness apart actually gave viewers a better understanding of him as a whole.

Now here's a look at what the season's second episode had to say with Inside The Episode: "Rick: A Mort Well Lived." following that, we have a teaser for this weekend's episode, S06E03 "Bethic Twinstinct" (which, despite the video game-themed promo, looks to be dealing more with the Beth/Space Beth dynamic):

Rick and Morty: Tales from Alternate Dimensions

Directed by Masaru Matsumoto (Starship Troopers: Traitor of Mars) and stemming from Sola Entertainment, the Halloween-inspired The Great Yokai Battle of Akihabara sees Rick looking to build the ultimate AI toaster until a trip to Akihabara for spare parts takes a twisted turn for our dimension-hopping duo. Think screws. Now here's a look at The Great Yokai Battle of Akihabara, followed by looks at four previously-released shorts:

Directed by Takashi Sano (Tower of God), produced by Sola Entertainment, and animated at Telecom Animation Film, the anime short Rick and Morty vs. Genocider finds Morty going on an adventure to Tokyo, Japan, to try and help stop "The Genocider." And yes, it's beautiful, emotional, and some really weird stuff happens:

Sano returned with the new short (produced by Sola Entertainment and animated by Telecom Animation Film), Summer Meets God (Rick Meets Evil)– following up on his previous short, Rick & Morty vs. Genocider. Here's a look at the newest short, with a focus on Summer and Jerry that goes in ways we didn't expect:

Written and directed by Kaichi Sato and produced by Studio DEEN, "Samurai & Shogun" finds Rick WTM72 (Yohei Tadano) and Shogun Morty (Keisuke Chiba) in a Lone Wolf and Cub-themed dimension. A nasty group of Ninja Ricks isn't willing to let go of Shogun Morty without a fight – an option that Rick WTM72 is more than willing to oblige. From there, we have a look at the follow-up short that was released last month, continuing the story, Samurai and Shogun Part 2:

In the creative spirit of Samurai & Shogun by Kaichi Sato and Rick & Morty vs. Genocider from Takeshi Sano, here's a look at Rick and Morty in the Eternal Nightmare Machine– where even the "Rick-mobile" can prove deadly, and you'll wonder like we do why Scary Terry isn't a downloadable character for a fighting game like Mortal Kombat:
