Only a few weeks remain till the return of Rick and Morty, and the first trailer for the second half of season six has come, confirming Susan Sarandon’s return as Dr. Wong. The Adult Swim animated sitcom follows mad scientist Rick Sanchez and his grandson Morty as they travel the multiverse. It was created by Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland, both of whom worked on the NBC series Community. After Evil Morty destroyed the Central Finite Curve in the season 5 finale, rendering every Rick unable to use his portal pistol to travel between universes, the Ricks and the rest of their family have had to deal with the aftermath in the season’s finale.
Adult Swim has released the first trailer for the second half of season 6 of the hit animated series Rick and Morty. Aside from Rick paying a visit to one of his numerous enemies, the teaser also reveals Susan Sarandon’s return as Dr. Wong. The weird adventures of the titular team continue.
What Happened in Season 6 Part 1?
From Earth Beth and Space Beths having an affair to Rick and Jerry uncovering a scary fortune cookie secret, season 6 of Rick and Morty has included a wide range of original stories that blend the more episodic adventures of early seasons with the canon development of the last few. This season’s major plot arc involved Rick Prime’s hunt for his C-137 variation because of their troubled history, which included Rick Prime’s murder of C-137’s Beth and Diane. Initially believed to be a ruse to fool the Galactic Federation extraterrestrial interrogating him in his thoughts, their true origins were revealed in the season six premiere of Rick and Morty.
The aftermath of Evil Morty’s destruction of the Central Finite Curve is also a major theme of episode 1 of season 6 of Rick and Morty, which sees Rick C-137 and his Morty return home with the help of Beths and Summer. In the final episode, “Juricksic Mort,” an enlightened species of dinosaurs repaired the temporal gap made by Evil Morty, allowing him to repair his portal gun. Unfortunately, this thread was not picked up in the rest of the ensuing episodes. At the episode’s conclusion, Rick enthusiastically teased that they may continue their multiverse adventures, as was hinted at in the trailer for the second half of season 6 of Rick and Morty.
Season 6 of Rick and Morty has returned to the crazier antics of earlier seasons, as Roiland teased in the lead-up to its release. This comes after the dramatic events of season 5, which also saw a much more mixed reception from audiences. However, Roiland’s claim that season 6 of Rick and Morty would be among the series’ best appears to have been well-received by both critics and viewers. The show has received a 95 percent approval rating from critics and an 86 percent approval rating from viewers on Rotten Tomatoes, both increases from season 5’s 86 and 58 percent ratings. In addition, the new Rick and Morty season 6, part 2 trailer is guaranteed to help spark enthusiasm for the remaining episodes of the new season before its November 20 launch, despite the fact that audiences originally responded to the sabbatical with varied reactions.
