Here's How Many More Seasons of 'Rick and Morty'

the fate of Rick and Morty hung in limbo for what felt like an eternity, but news broke Thursday that Adult Swim renewed the show for a whopping 70 more episodes. Should we be excited that Rick and Morty will more than triple its current episode count, or should we be worried that we might get too much of a good thing? It’s tough to say at this point, but a more practical question for right now would be to wonder how many more seasons of Rick and Morty we’re looking at. Seven? Five? Nine seasons on the hunt for Szechuan Sauce?

So far, there are 31 Rick and Morty episodes total between the first three seasons, which means that Adult Swim and/or co-creators Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland probably wanted to get the show over that hallowed 100-episode benchmark. (Historically, that’s the episode count that leads to a show’s syndication, which can be very profitable in the long-term.) Based on that, you might assume that all future season will also be ten episodes each, but that’s not might not be the case.
