Fans of "Rick and Morty" are still patiently waiting for Rick and Morty to return on the small screens for their next adventures. However, before "Rick and Morty" Season 3 premieres there are already rumors that it is canceled.
"Rick and Morty" writer Erica Rosbe revealed that they already wrote the entire season's script, CinemaBlend reported. In fact, the "Rick and Morty" writers were done scribing four weeks ago but the animation process was slow.
However, despite the slow progress for animation, a number of episodes in "Rick and Morty" Season 3 are already animated. "Rick and Morty" animator Dan Harmon explained the delay by stressing that they are extremely dedicated to delivering quality output.
One Reddit user who claimed to be a design assistant for "Rick and Morty" corrected the rumors that season 3 will only have four episodes. "Rick and Morty" Season 3 will include 14 episodes.
Unfortunately, the "Rick and Morty" Season 3 release date remains unknown. The staff insider only said that the December release date was based on an old Harmon quote. Thus, "Rick and Morty" Season 3 might arrive earlier or later.
Meanwhile, speaking of release date, there are rumors that "Rick and Morty" Season 3 is already canceled. According to iTech Post, there is a strong competition between "Rick and Morty" and "Steven Universe" and it affects both shows' ratings. In fact, "Steven Universe" Season 4 was delayed because of its declining ratings.
However, the report notes that "Rick and Morty" already called it quits, which suggests that the series is canceled and will not be returning to the small screens. Now, the spotlight is all for "Steven Universe."
Although "Rick and Morty" Season 3 is delayed, fans should still take the cancellation reports with a grain of salt. A number of episodes for "Rick and Morty" Season 3 are already done. Although the cancellation reports are possible, it will remain as speculation until Adult Swim and Dan Harmon confirm it.
