Adult Swim dropped a new trailer for Rick and Morty Season 6 less than a month before the season debut, and they won’t say it, so we will: a very happy “wubba lubba dub dub” to you. In the new teaser, we get a taste of the cosmic chaos that is the upcoming season, which will air on Adult Swim on September 4 and will feature all of the turmoil in the Sanchez/Smith family. The first 5 seasons are currently available to view in their entirety on HBO Max. Like many episodes of Rick and Morty, the trailer begins with Rick and Morty in the middle of a laser gun battle with an unseen antagonist, their backs against the wall. When morale starts to dip, Rick orders his crew to play an upbeat tune.
Black Sabbath’s “Paranoid” starts playing as Rick and Summer debate Die Hard/Die Hard 2 escape strategies as Rick says that the family is about to “vanish from reality,” which is not the same thing as dying. The first episode of Rick and Morty aired on Adult Swim in 2013. The show centres around Rick Sanchez and his everyday adventures with his grandson Morty through space, time, and dimensions. The show also explores how his garage-based lab and inclination to bring work home affects his relationship with his highly intellectual daughter (a horse surgeon), his hapless son-in-law, and his granddaughter Summer.
The sitcom-style show became popular with fans almost immediately. However, it has developed a life of its own as a cultural phenomenon in the nine years following its first broadcast. The minds behind Rick and Morty belong to Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland. Rick Sanchez (Justin Roiland), Jerry Smith (Chris Parnell), Summer Smith (Spencer Grammer), Beth Smith (Sarah Chalke), Morty (Maurice LaMarche), and Jessica (Kari Wahlgren) provide the voices for the primary characters in the sitcom.
Both critics and consumers have responded well to the series, which has resulted in a flood of merchandising, licenced items, and Funko Pops. It’s less than a month now until the sixth season premieres on Adult Swim on September 4, so you might want to catch up on the show, which is now on HBO Max.
