Yes, there will a sixth season of Rick and Morty. In May 2018, Adult Swim announced that it had ordered a total of 70 new episodes of Rick and Morty. Since then, two seasons have aired with 10 episodes each. It's unclear how many seasons of the show will run, but fans can use that 70-episode order as a basis.
What is the Rick and Morty Season 6 release date?
Rick and Morty Season 6 will air its first episode on Sept. 4, 2022. The network hasn't announced how many episodes will be included in the season. All of the previous seasons, however, have been 10 episodes long, so it's likely that the sixth season will continue that trend.
Is Rick and Morty Season 6 canceled?
No, the sixth season of Rick and Morty has not been canceled. The first episode is set to premiere on September 4, and it will likely run for 10 episodes. The show remains highly popular and is unlikely to be canceled in the foreseeable future.
Who is in the Rick and Morty Season 6 cast?
While there are a slew of recurring and side characters that come and go each season, the core cast of Ricky and Morty will definitely be back for Season 6. They are:
Justin Roiland as Rick Sanchez and Morty Smith
In addition to providing the voices of title characters Rick and Morty, Justin Roiland also voices Mr. Poopybutthole (our fave), Mr. Meseeks, the Cromulans, and many more. He's also written for the series. You can also hear him in Harmon's show Solar Opposites.
Dan Harmon as Mr. Nimbus and Birdperson
Dan Harmon created the show and voices Mr. Nimbus, Birdperson, and other recurring and random characters throughout the show.
Spencer Grammer as Summer Smith
Spencer Grammer (daughter of Frasier star Kelsey Grammer) voices Summer Smith. She previously starred on Greek.
Sarah Chalke as Beth Smith
Sarah Chalke voices Beth Smith, who is Rick's daughter, Jerry's wife, and Spencer and Morty's mother. She previously starred on Scrubs and Firefly Lane and has done voice acting on other shows, including American Dad.
Chris Parnell as Jerry Smith
Chris Parnell voices Jerry Smith, who, although frequently maligned by Rick for not being a genius, is a genuinely nice guy. Parnell is a Saturday Night Live veteran and was also seen as Dr. Leo Spaceman in 30 Rock and Garth Holliday in Anchorman. You've likely heard his voice in various Adult Swim projects, including Robot Chicken.
Kari Wahlgren as Jessica
Kari Wahlgren is the voice of Jessica, Morty's crush. She also voices the characters of Mother Gaia, as well as Summer's teen classmates Cynthia and Samantha.

Will there be a Rick and Morty Season 7?
While a seventh season of Ricky and Morty has yet to be officially announced, it's highly likely that there will be one. After the third season aired, Adult Swim ordered an additional 70 episodes of the show but didn't specify how many seasons this would cover. Since then, 20 episodes have been aired, and an unknown number were produced for the sixth season. So, unless season six is 50 episodes long, there will be a seventh season.
Is Rick and Morty Season 6 streaming?
While Rick and Morty will air on Adult Swim, it will be available on Hulu one day after it airs. The show will also be available on HBO Max, although that streaming service has been making a lot of changes to its lineup lately. It's unlikely that Rick and Morty will be removed from HBO Max, as most of the content removed from the platform has been original productions.
How many Rick and Morty Season 6 episodes are there?
An official episode count has not been announced. However, all of the previous seasons have included 10 episodes, so it's likely that Season 6 will also include 10 episodes. The fourth season was split into two parts, with five episodes airing in December 2019, and an additional five airing in May 2020. The fifth season, however, aired all ten episodes without any major breaks. It's unknown at this time what format season six will follow.

Is there a Rick and Morty Season 6 trailer?
Yes, there is. Adult Swim released the trailer on Aug. 11, 2022. Set to the Black Sabbath song "Paranoid," the footage shows that Rick, Morty, and the rest of the family will be getting up to their usual hijinks and fighting aliens and other interdimensional monsters. It also promises that the season will include an episode that pays homage to Die Hard.
What happens in Rick and Morty Season 6 episode 1?
The exact plot of the episode has not been revealed, but the title may hint at the plot. The episode is named "Bethic Twinstic," which follows that show's style of awkwardly incorporating the character's names into classic movie and TV show names. This title would suggest that Beth and her clone will be playing a big part in the episode.
Will Rick and Morty Season 6 be on Netflix?
No, Rick and Morty Season 6 will not be on Netflix for the foreseeable future. While Rick and Morty is available on Netflix in certain countries, in the United States, it will only be available to be streamed on Hulu and HBO Max. It will also be available for purchase through various outlets.
Will Rick and Morty Season 6 be on Hulu?
Yes, Rick and Morty Season 6 will be available on Hulu. Episodes will appear on the streaming service on the day following the live airing on Adult Swim. The show will also be streaming on HBO Max, and episodes can be purchased on various digital platforms.
What race is Rick Sanchez?
Rick Sanchez is a Hispanic-American. Much of his past is unknown, and what is known can't be trusted as the show has altered Rick's story multiple times. Justin Roiland has confirmed that Rick has Hispanic heritage, but hasn't gone into more detail.
Will we see evil Morty again?
At the end of the fifth season, evil Morty traveled to a previously locked-off section of the multiverse. It's unclear if he will return, although it's possible. The character is one of the few returning antagonists in the show's roster.
What is Rick's IQ?
Rick has a genius-level IQ. He's generally considered to be the smartest man on Earth, and might even be one of the smartest creatures in the galaxy. His exact IQ score hasn't been revealed, although it's believed to be over 300.
Why is Rick's hair blue?
Rick's hair is blue because he's an old man and his hair is supposed to be gray. Since the character's skin is already fairly gray, it's likely that the show's producers added a bit of blue to Rick's hair to make it stand out from his skin while still looking gray.
Why is Rick's skin grey?
Rick is an old man who has a drinking problem and has spent his life fighting aliens, doing drugs, having sex with aliens and basically indulging in any other vice. His skin is gray because he's lived a hard life and doesn't seem concerned with skincare or maintaining a tan.
