Episodes[edit]Production[edit]Development[edit]Dan Harmon and Scott Marder said that season 5 would have a stronger sense of continuity than previous seasons. At a 2020 virtual Adult Swim festival, writer Scott Marder announced that "there's epic canon in season five coming" and that season four's Space Beth is set to be a major character in the season.[18] As of late October 2020, episodes were "pretty far along on [their] route to Adult Swim."[19] A promotional animatic of Morty carrying a seemingly dead Rick across an alien planet was released in November 2020.[6] Other animatics, including one that appears to be from the same episode as Rick is in the same condition he is in in the first picture, have been released as well.[19] A final animatic shows Morty confessing his feelings for Jessica as their spaceship crashes into the ocean. Once it does, Rick's long-time nemesis Mr. Nimbus greets them.[citation needed] Sixth and seventh seasons have been confirmed to already be in development.[citation needed] Writing[edit]In October 2020, show creator Dan Harmon revealed that one of the episodes written by Rob Schrab in the upcoming season, now known as "A Rickconvenient Mort", would be about Morty's relationship with a woman who is not Jessica, and said that Morty "really feels heartache on a level a man his age shouldn't... my Emmy is going to that one." Schrab's writing for the episode was "very tender." Harmon also noted that production was happening ahead of schedule.[20] Jeff Loveness, who wrote multiple episodes in season four, has been confirmed to be returning to write his last episodes for the series, including the season premiere.[21] The season will also delve deeper into Rick and Jerry's relationship.[22] Casting[edit]Regulars Justin Roiland, Chris Parnell, Spencer Grammer, and Sarah Chalke were confirmed to return as the Smith family,[4] with other characters including new addition to the cast, Mr. Nimbus.[6] In January 2021, it was revealed that series creator Dan Harmon and Kari Wahlgren, a recurring voice in the series, would return to reprise their roles of Birdperson, Rick's old friend turned enemy after being reprogrammed by Tammy Gueterman, and Jessica, Morty's crush throughout the show, respectively.[5] Space Beth, a character who last appeared in the finale of the previous season, voiced by Chalke, also returned.[18] Guest stars during the season will include Timothy Olyphant, Christina Ricci, and Alison Brie.[23] Release[edit]The season premiered on June 20, 2021.[24] Justin Roiland, who voices the two main characters, said that he would like to air one episode a month, so as to lengthen the time that the show is on the air.[25] He reiterated this in March 2021. Roiland also claimed that the wait between all the rest of the seasons would "never be [as] long again" as they were between many of the previous seasons.[26] On July 13, 2021, the seventh episode, "Gotron Jerrysis Rickvangelion", was leaked online in Canada through Amazon Prime Video, ahead of its official release date of August 1.[14] Reception[edit]On the review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, season five has a 95% score based on 22 reviews, with an average rating of 8.10/10. The site's critics consensus reads, "Bold, bombastic, and just the right amount of baffling, Rick and Morty's fifth season is an action-packed journey that may finally put Rick in his place."[27] Brandon Katz of Observer said "Rick and Morty persists not only for its inversion of sci-fi tropes, clever pop culture riffing and raw hilarity. It continues to hold our interest in a way few shows do because it knows we are all capable of great and terrible things."[28] David Opie of Digital Spy praised the series premiere, saying "It's just as inventive as ever, and by not resetting the status quo, there's more room for character development."[29] Notes[edit]
