Team 'Still Drawing' Rick and Morty Season 3 As Fans Await New Season Premiere
The wait for "Rick and Morty" season 3 goes on, and it looks like the team behind the Adult Swim hit animated series are still deep into the production.
In the latest episode of his podcast, "Harmontown," the show's co-creator Dan Harmon spoke — or more accurately, rapped — about the ongoing work on "Rick and Morty."
"They're drawing it," he said of "Rick and Morty" season 3, which suggests that there is still a lot of work to be done. He then discussed the work that goes behind the series: "Here's how cartoons work. First, you write them, then you draw them for a really long time. Everything needs to be on paper. So you can see it."

"So if all I do is write it and then put it on TV it will look like a script, instead of Rick and Morty, which you seem to like," he went on to say.
Harmon's remarks hint that there is still a lot to do before "Rick and Morty" season 3 is completed. After all, the new season will be three episodes longer than the previous one.
Harmon and Justin Roiland, the other half of the duo who created the series, are also known to be perfectionists. With the show's growing fanbase and greater expectation, they want to make sure "Rick and Morty" season 3 will be just what fans hope it will be.
In an interview with Shockya.com last year, Harmon admitted that "it's been really hard" putting together the show's highly-anticipated third run.
"I mean it's just because the expectations and what we've done, looking at what we've done, looking at how it's been received," Roiland explained.
"We don't want to have a bad episode that's universally considered oh, that's Rick and Morty's — that may arguably exist already but I dunno," he went on to say.
"Rick and Morty" season 3 has no release date yet but is hoped to arrive in the coming months.
