As Expected, There’s Going to Be More Rick and Morty
We all love Rick and Morty. It’s a great show, and still funny after all these years. And what more is there to say? Rick and Morty is an institution at this point, and it’s just delightful that we’ll be getting more episodes soon!
I mean, it all looks great. I’ve no doubt that the creative team are going to knock another season out of the park. And we can all watch that happen with our eyeballs.
Wow, I am just not finding much to say about the existence of another season of Rick and Morty. I’m gonna watch, and I’m gonna love every episode. Let’s just leave it at that.
Rick and Morty returns on Sept. 4, just in time for my birthday. I’m not 40 yet.

I’ve Only Just Learned of the Awesomeness that is Pibby
So April Fool’s Day came and went this past Friday, and apparently Adult Swim did this whole thing where they have their shows invaded by a dangerous black static. It’s a crazy zombie horror thing, and is a fun way to do April Fool’s.
But in learning about this gag, I also learned about this little short for a show called Come and Learn with Pibby. It debuted last Halloween and I totally missed it! And I’m sad I did, because this looks rad as hell!
This looks awesome! Is there going to be a real Come and Learn with Pibby show? That would be bloody brilliant. Anyway, now that I know about Pibby, I’m very happy to share knowledge of Pibby with you, too.
And you can watch the entire block of Adult Swim glitch stuff right here.

How About Just Some Rick and Morty Madness?
Rick and Morty season 5 is coming at the end of June and the world is probably ready for it. I know I am! To help get us excited, some really sweet Rick and Morty business arrived this weekend. We’ve got a new trailer, which looks as good as always.
And then we’ve got this 17-minute, 8-bit adventure animated by Paul Robertson. Holy jeez louise, this one.
What the heck do we even make of that?! Other than art is amazing and this Robertson dude is some kind of god. If this doesn’t spur Cartoon Network into hiring Robertson to make a legit Rick and Morty 8-bit adventure, I don’t know what will! Everybody loved that Scott Pilgrim game, right? Do that, but make it this!
Find the time to watch all 17 minutes. This thing is really nifty!

Let’s All Watch the First Episode of Birdgirl!
I shared the trailer for Birdgirl a couple weeks ago and now the first episode is here! And like many new comedies these days, they’ve put the entire first episode onto YouTube for everybody to watch! And I watched it, and it’s pretty fun! Now you can watch it too and judge for yourself.
I like it. I might try to watch more. Birdgirl, obviously, is a spin-off of Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law, which was a great show back in the day. Birdgirl is made with modern cartoon sensibilities and it’s still fun. Kudos to the whole gang who made this happen, it looks to be quality programming.
Birdgirl airs on Mondays on Adult Swim on Cartoon Network.

Adult Swim Jr. is Winning April Fools Day!
I love April Fools Day! I love the pageantry of most holidays, and I especially love the day where we all get together and pull harmless internet prank headlines on one another. If I had more forethought and artistic ability, I’d do something funny with my blog heading…but for now, I shall ride the coattails of Adult Swim Jr.!
Rick and Morty Babies is legit funny. Adult Swim is killing it for April Fool’s Day this year. There are more videos on their Twitter.
I’ll post more if I can find them!
