As a huge animation fan, I’ve been following Rick and Morty since the beginning. It started as a little show on Adult Swim, created by Justin Roiland and Dan Harmon, but quickly blew up!

And it’s not just popular with viewers, critics love it too; every season has a ‘Fresh’ rating on Rotten Tomatoes, which is pretty rare.
