I half thought it was a joke when I first heard about it. But I thought I'd at least see the joke they were playing. Turns out it was true! Holy shit! Didn't expect that one.

And what an episode. We returned to the Cronenberged universe, saw the Council of Ricks, Rick escaped prison, and Bird-Person was even revived. All true. Don't believe me? Check the site.

Man, this was a fantastic Episode! It also had several sad moments, especially when it came to Jerry. This just makes me look forward to Season 3 even more!

I've been waiting a long time for new Rick and Morty, and I was not disappointed. Not sure if they'll be showing more episodes next week, though.

There's no troll. They are legitimately streaming the first episode of Season 3 in an endless loop on their website. I don't know why they decided to do that as a April Fool's joke, but it's the best joke ever.

Because no one would believe it. That and, no Samurai Jack tonight. They're annoying the shit out of everyone by repeating it.

Screw everyone else. Rick and Morty forever!
What I wouldn't give to be a fly on the wall at McDonalds' social media department right now.

There was one downside to this, which is no Samurai Jack/Dragon Ball Super this week. But I suppose it's thematic that the two sequels to old shows have to make way for the big new show.

That was a great premiere. All the references were perfect. I especially liked the call back to the first episode where he goes off on Morty about their adventures, but this time it is about the szechuan(sp?) sauce, haha.

Phoenix person, yes. I want to know if Squanchy is still alive, and he likely is, he's got too much squanch for the bugs to handle, am I right?

Good stuff, can't wait for the rest.

I thought the ending of last season was great, and then they completely undid everything except for Jerry. Feels like a reset button

This season premiere was originally going to be the 2nd part of a two-part finale for the second season; it was foregone that it would right pretty much every cliffhanger. When the creators decided to delay the resolution and save it for the 3rd season, they had to invent a new episode (the Purge parody one) to bulk up the count for the season. It's no coincidence that that episode is so weak.

I don't know...

Adult Swim's 2012 April Fool's prank was probably the best in my book. You guys remember that one right? "The night no 90s kid slept", when they brought back Toonami for one night and paved the way for Toonami being here now?
