Fans have been at their happiest when Adult Swim has finally released "Rick and Morty" season 3 as a surprise during the first day of April. However, it might still going to be a while before the next episode comes on air.
The premiere of "Rick and Morty" season 3 was entitled "The Rickshank Redemption" was a testament to how the animated series was praised for its reference on pop culture. It has made the fans understand the references easier than what could have been anticipated, given the complicated concepts that could be out of this world.
The title of its premiere has already been taken from the 1994 drama film "The Shawshank Redemption," as reported by. The premiere of the current season was to tackle the situation of Rick while he is in prison which made sense to the film it took its reference from.
According to Den of Geek, a lot of the characters from the previous seasons were also brought back to the current "Rick and Morty" season three. These characters include Mr. Poopy Butthole, the aliens from "Total Rickall," Armagheadon and many others. In addition to this, series creator Dan Harmon also released that the show will be bringing back Birdperson.
For one, during the season two finale of "Rick and Morty," Mr. Poopybutthole said that it would take one year and a half to wait for the release of Rick, which matched well with how long it took for the creators to release the new season of the show. In addition to that, a lot of reference was also made for the Disney Channel series entitled "Gravity Falls" when Rick opened a portal to escape the Council of Ricks.
The "Rick and Morty" season 3 episode 1 premiere also made reference to provide clarifications to the current situation that Rick is currently in, and also to the events that took place during the previous seasons.
