A show about misadventures in space, Rick and Morty does not seem to lose steam. Created by talented Justin Roiland and Dan Harmon, the show aired in 2013. The series has recently concluded its fourth chapter. And while there have been multiple breaks in between, the show has not lost its sarcastic charm.
It is hard to define what makes the show so popular. Whether it is for the series’s cynical humour, pop culture reference or just its overpowering theme of nihilism. But certainly, Rick and Morty is a phenomenon, and there is no stopping it. So get ready as the show gears up for its fifth season, which should not be too long this time around.

ToggleRick And Morty Season 5: Release Date
In 2018 news broke that Rick and Morty would be here to stay for long. With the producers sanctioning a new deal of 70 episodes. These will be released over an unspecified number of seasons, and Season 4 was part of it.
That all but confirms the future of the series. However, as for the release of the fifth season, there is no news as such.
The writers of the show have earned a notorious reputation of not sticking to the schedule. With the pandemic not helping them the least. Given the innumerable easter eggs and foreshadowing hidden in every scene of the show, delays in writing are expected. And seeing the end-product, not many fans complain about it.
Despite their meticulous process, Harmon and Roiland were hoping to bring out Season 5 as early as possible. With the team having started working on it even while the fourth season was still running. But with writing done over video calls, creativity does suffer. And with no confirmed dates, fans will have to be patient once more with the series.
Rick And Morty Season 5: Cast
The show will of course return, with most of its cast intact. It helps that Roiland, himself will voice half of the characters appearing on the screen. Joining him once again will be the fan-favourite voices of Sarah Chalke and Chris Parnell.
The show has a reputation for bringing celebrities to their show. Last season saw a fair share of popular names lending their voices. It is going to be interesting to find out who those are for Season 5. But that won’t be possible until the series returns.
Rick And Morty Season 5: Plot
Half of the fun depends on Rick and Morty’s countless expeditions. So it is only natural that there won’t be much news about the plot for next season. Rick has a lot of clarifications to give, especially after he broke the laws of time travel last time round.
Season 5 might also break the mystery surrounding Beth’s mother. Fans deserve to know about her by now and they might as well in this season. Otherwise, there is going to be no shortage of smart, cheeky and thinly-veiled jokes on the show. It is expected to continue on its regular unapologetic way.
Rick And Morty Season 5: Trailer
With half of the season yet to be completed, expecting a trailer right now is a far cry. But the creators have been considerate and recently released the first look of Season 5. That might be something to keep fans busy.
The show continues to grow in stature with every passing season. Fans would be hoping that Season 5 does not take long to be completed. There is not a lot nice happening in the world right now. So a care-free show to distract the viewers will be welcomed by all.
