The Rick and Morty season 6 release date is finally set for September on Adult Swim. Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland's hit adult animated sitcom has developed a massive fan following over the nearly 10 years since its debut. Audiences have come to love the crazy adventures between Morty Smith and his grandfather Rick Sanchez, which explore the vast multiverse, time travel, and much more. Rick and Morty has become a flagship series for Adult Swim as a result, with the network handing out a 70-episode renewal in 2018 to ensure many more seasons of adventures would come — and hopefully without massive hiatuses.
Rick and Morty season 5 debuted in the summer of 2021 and concluded its ten-episode run in September. The Rick and Morty season 5 finale gave fans plenty to think about as they await season 6; it was during the finale that viewers finally got answers about Rick Sanchez's past, saw the return of Evil Morty, and teased a major multiverse story that lies ahead. Rick and Morty season 5 proved divisive for viewers, though. However, there is still plenty of excitement to see what will come next — even if fans have so far been left in the dark about when Rick and Morty's adventures will continue.
