and updating them far everyone I'm Justin with Channel Frederator and it's time to get regular riggityrekt son because we're about to give you 107 facts about Rick and Morty season 1 and away we go Rick and Morty was created by Dan Harmon and Justin roiland the series premiered on December 2nd 2013 the show was renewed for a second season that aired in July 2015 and a third season in July 2017 that's a full two year gap Dan Harmon is known for creating the hit NBC comedy community justin roiland was no stranger to animation before Rick and Morty he was known for his voice acting work and for the animated web series house of cause be you can hear and play everyone's favorite lemon headed Earl on adventure time and speaking of the Earl of Lemongrab is infamous lines unacceptable and the thing the thing now both made it into Rick and Morty you can also hear Justin roiland on Rick and Morty he plays Rick and and Morty Dan Harmon also co-founded channel 101 on monthly short film festival in Los Angeles where all the films and pilots are under just 5 minutes in length Rick and Morty originated as a crude short that Justin roiland created for channel 101 after harmon was approached by adult swim for television show ideas he in royal and worked together to develop the series the original short was actually a parody of the Back to the Future film series titled The Adventures of doc and Marty it featured Doc Brown and Marty McFly when Harmon and Ryland presented it to Adult Swim the characters were then changed into Rick and Morty we're sure you can guess who became who beyond Back to the Future the creators were also inspired by the general mad scientist archetype Cat in the Hat and the Ford Prefect from Hitchhiker's Guide to the galaxy when creating reg Adult Swim originally wanted the show to consist of 11 minute episodes but Roland push for longer episode prior to working on Rick and Morty with Harmon whirling created three animated pilots for Fox which all failed and just being honest I've checked them out personally and I think they're all pretty funny stealing burnout by network development he was initially unreceptive to outside notes on the series's pitch there were three directors on Ricky Morty and six storyboard artists two / director according to Erika Hays a board artist on the show they generally have around two weeks to thumbnail and two weeks to clean and one week to revise their storyboards for each episode the episode rickety minutes and the first season's finale both required all hands to be on deck artists on the show work digitally using Cintiq and Mac's this series is animated and boarded using Toon Boom software and Adobe After Effects is also used John Kriss Belushi's ren & stimpy was a big source of inspiration for the show justin roiland cartooning style is heavily influenced by the simpsons evan san diego comic-con panel in 2014 justin roiland also cited pendleton ward as a main influence Justin and Dan broke down the show story sold the show's pilot and then proceeded to write its first draft all in the same day the giraffe took six hours to complete and was written in Dan Harmon's unfurnished community office on the Paramount Pictures lot if you're a fan of brick and Morty and you watched the twenty sixth season finale of The Simpsons you may have spotted some familiar faces Rick and Morty appear during the episodes couch gag which was written and animated by Dan and Justin in the gravity falls episode Society of the blind eye some of Stan's belongings are sucked into a portal they include his notebook pen and question mark mark if you squint and pay attention to the Rick and Morty episode close Rick counters of the red kind some miscellaneous objects pop out of one of the portals they include a notebook pen and question mark mogs dan harmon performed a fool hand wrap in the episode rick potion number nine Harmon also makes a cameo in the show as the bird person in the episode Rick see business in the episode M neshama aliens the simulation people do a weird glitching thing that's supposed to replicate cartridge tilting you probably notice that the pupils and rekha Morty's eyes are nice and fuzzy it's a holdover from the original short and something that Justin roiland enjoys as a stylistic choice pony press publishes a Rick and Morty comic adaptation that's written by Zach Gorman and illustrated by CJ cannon Kyle Starks eventually took over for Gorman when he left the series and if I do say so myself those comic adaptations are fantastic if dent could summon mr. meeseeks he would have won every time he answered an email to tell him Oh Dan you did a good job on this email yeah I know my impression is terrible but I gave it my best you would also say but I don't think your humor is registering maybe you should make it clear that you're kidding and you would also use one to organize this Facebook page which I think we could all use if Justin roiland not myself could summon mr. meeseeks he would have them tell him jokes and try to make him laugh if they got a really good big laugh out of him then they could die mr. meeseeks was originally going to be a neon taupe but the color didn't resonate well with viewers Justin roiland got the inspiration for mr. meeseeks from his friend cat whose name was ski seeks the inspiration didn't strike until years later bout when royal and tried to liven up a writing session with the phrase i'm mr. meeseeks towards the end of the show's second episode morty asked what a world populated with intelligent dogs would be like Rick's response is a reference to a cartoon network pilot that justin roiland created called dog world according to Dan Harmon on a reddit AMA ashram eckle is worth approximately 148 US dollars when he's speaking with morning Ric has a tendency to say Morty's name a lot like like a whole lot Justin roiland has actually said at the verbal crutch he's been trying to pull back on come on morning please more just do it more it's really no secret that Beth has issues but Dan Harmon once explained that quote best things her dad is better than her mother because her dad had the brain and guts to leave her and close it's how she copes with blaming herself for the separation of her parents Justin roiland loves Tim and Eric and would love to have them on the show Rick and Morty was one of the first shows to premiere a new episode on Instagram the season 1 episode rickety minutes was uploaded to the shield's official page ahead of its usual air date you may have already forgotten but this was back in the time when Instagram videos were limited to 15 seconds in order to put the entire 22 minute episode of it was split into 109 15-second clips yeah Harmon sees Rick and Morty as two sides of the human brain Morty is the childish naive and curious half while Rick is the gruff selfish and unapologetic side together there are two ends of a battery that powers the show in the episode closer encounters of the Rick kind the Eric Stoltz mask Morty is a reference to Eric's tilters role as rocky Dennis in the movie mask fun fact Stoltz was originally cast as Marty in Back to the Future but was replaced by Michael J Fox remember that balloon-popping game that Jerry played on his iPad Adult Swim made it real it's available on the iOS and Android app stores and it's called Jerry's game Justin roiland red really checks right and Tom for feedback on the show from fans he and the staff do their best to keep them happy in the episode directing minutes the best majority of the alternate universe trailers TV shows and commercials shown were improvised by the voice actors since Styles episode occurred again in the show in season 2 where characters watch television featuring commercials and teasers that were ad-lib during recording and honestly that's my favorite episode marketing minutes use more improv than usual but Rick and Morty scripts are usually written using retro script dang this means that actors are given an outline of what the characters are meant to say and then ad-lib the exact dialogue and the episode Anatomy Park Morty and Annie are chased by hepatitis-a which is then crushed by hepatitis C hepatitis C is much friendlier which stems from the real-life fact that hepatitis C is usually benign in the short term the episode is also a parody of Jurassic Park Dan Harmon justin roiland and four of the show's earliest writers Eric Acosta Wade Randolph Ryan Ridley and Tom Kaufman are all alumni of channel 101 in an alternate scene from the episode rick potion number 9 alternate rick and morty explode into pieces and rick has to scrape his scrotum off the ceiling Rick's burps are a hundred percent authentic it's going to be great Morty Oh kinds of science when recording Rick's dialogue for an episode Justin marks lines he wants to do burp cakes for he has the audio engineer continue recording and uses a low-calorie beer and water to get air in his stomach then he reads lines trying to catch the burps in the middle of them in his own words quote the whole process is disgusting Maury is technically Morty Smith senior since he's raised by Morty jr. summer hates Yahtzee Beth is originally from Muskegon Michigan Rowland originally said that while other shows keep track of story arcs and characterless Rick and Morty intentionally discards these restrictions so the characters and plot can move more organically while they may still disregard certain restrictions later seasons have introduced continuing story arcs like birdperson and rick going into prison Sarah Chalke the voice of Beth thinks the animation of Rick and Morty is beautiful she also says she would love to be able to draw I mean you know same here I can't draw for anything sarah has previously played another blonde doctor fans of the comedy series scrubs know her as dr. Elliot Reid Chris Parnell the voice of Jerry is a sci-fi fan and he absolutely adores the universe that Rick and Morty takes place in justin roiland has said that there's a possibility of mr. meeseeks returning quote that box seems like a pretty we'll tool to have around in a pinch certain moments in each episode were improvised by roiland a big example is the cult open in the show's pilot let's see where he plays with Morty and the alien scammer ship was also improv Justin records the voices for Rick and Morty separately or in real time back and forth depending on what they feel would work best for the scene some of the show's story ideas have come from real events that have happened to its creatives or people they know but the characters are a hundred percent made up roiling loves using his voice record outtakes as intake dialogue editor Tommy Meehan is very much in sync with his humor and make some surprising choices on what to cut in mortgage in yer his cartoons and video games his favorite TV channel is The History Channel Harmon has compared the show's tone to British sci-fi franchises like Doctor Who and The Hitchhiker's Guide to the galaxy he feels that they're able to give audiences so much more credit to be able to handle darkness or edginess in fact they don't consider any topic completely off-limits or too dark for the writers room because that's usually what makes the writers and then the viewers lap the hardest do you see yourself walking in Morty shoes Harmon feels that the sidekicks and the show's he mentioned are stand-ins for the viewers he can't connect with the all-knowing lead so he identifies with the innocent admirers the animation for Ricky Morty is divided between starburns industries and Burbank and bar del Entertainment and Vancouver storyboards designs color keys and backgrounds are completed in Burbank and assembled in Vancouver with some production assistants provided from the Philippines the creators of Rick and Morty often push boundaries with their jokes and storylines luckily they aren't the first cartoon to do so when writing they found it helpful to use self-park as the model for what an animated series can get away with the title of the episode lawnmower dog is a reference to the film two lawnmower man in the film a scientist gives a mentally handicapped gardener super intelligence and in the episode Rick gives the family dog snuffles artificial intelligence gary majored in civics in college and has worked at an advertising agency and the galactic federation but unfortunately was laid off from both jobs poor dude berlin believes that Beth is fine with reg dragging her kids around because she doesn't want him to leave again she also really doesn't care that much a closed parenting bath Rick catchphrase Wubba lubba dub dub was meant to be a joke on stupid catchphrases in roylene's words it's a horrible cringe-worthy catchphrase that I just made up in the record as an L cake that made its way into the show in the season 2 finale risky business the meaning behind Rick's catchphrase is revealed third-person explains two more even in his native language what will love a dub dub means I am in great pain please help me despite bird persons insisting Morty isn't convinced that Rick was being that deep do you believe him Morty's dog snuffles is based on Justin roiland dog Jerry Jerry is also a Maltese in the same vein as many other Adult Swim shows Rick and Morty's writing staff is not unionized with the writing Guild of America oiling predicts that an adult morty would look a lot like jerry but have some of rick's fantastic abilities i guess you could say look for the adventures of adult morty and like a hundred years which celebrity guest star is justin whirling trying to nab for the show well he said quote hoping to get Jesus Christ on the show once he returns and all that Rick's been trying to figure out how to make time-travel work but Justin roiland doesn't think he'll ever figure it out well because it's stupid and he knows it this is actually tied to roil and Stan's that time travel story suck now because there's nothing new to explore despite rookie Morty's Back to the Future background he says he'll never do a time-traveling story well this may disappoint some fans they can still look forward to Rick and Morty jumping between dimensions Jerry is a big fan of Titanic if you pay close attention during closer encounters of the Rick kind you'll notice if he has a picture of the Titanic on the wall of his study and he also takes bets on a titanic themed romantic getaway and risky business Justin roiland has revealed that there's a bigger picture to the show but he loves the episodic nature it already has so the serialized plot will be subtle whatever you do don't look to Rick and Morty for scientific accuracy because the creators do very little research and focus more on storytelling they do look into science and sci-fi to help with episode concepts and Rick's gadgets whatever more Star Wars approach to fame cool devices aren't explained but seem plausible in the distant future the head of Adult Swim personally reads each episode outline and script and close the creators to share his thoughts he does what he can to help them get away with their more risque business and even spiked with standards and practices for them in Harmons words he's the greatest man in all television in Rowlands he is a hero the creators of Rick and Morty do their best to not alienate new viewers it's one of the reasons that whirling shied away from a serialized plot harmon describe the style of season 1 as a car driving 90 miles per hour in a straight line and season 2 as the car taking a corner and hitting a few mailboxes this is because he felt season 2 was cooler but also more out of control the season 2 episode look who's purging now written by Dan Harmon justin roiland and Ryan Ridley was roylene's favorite episode of the season in season 1 they scrapped a story idea where one of Rick's ex-girlfriends was a hive mind Rick and Morty would be at a space convention in spot one of the six original hive members they try to avoid her but realize that the hive had expanded to thousands of people and be spotted sound familiar this story popped up in season 2 voicing mr. meeseeks as well as women grabbed leaves Justin run with a throbbing headache and the need to rest his voice in a 2016 panel the creators revealed Watson Rex laughed and sort of Roman said that Rick is a quote connoisseur of all good liquor so he's always sipping on something different and he gets it from a dimension where Hennessy is a dollar for a 750 milliliter bottle Joseph in royal and thinks that Rick's penis is the size of a three-year-olds arm and on the other hand Dan Harmon feels like Jerry is hung the meze star cinch at the end of Ric potion number 9 is thanks to Justin roiland there one of his all-time favorite bands and Dan is also a fan the title of the episode meeseeks and destroy' is a reference to the Metallica song seeking destroy the title of the episode raising gazorpazorp is a reference to the film Raising Arizona the episode has numerous references to the film Zardoz including the floating head societal structured red color and bizarre crime sentences the Cronenberg's are named after David Cronenberg a Canadian filmmaker screenwriter and actor who was known for his body of horror films closer encounters of the rick kind is the highest-rated episode of the very first season king jellybean has also appeared in a short that Justin really made for channel 101 he's crumbly crumpled Stein the host of the show unbelievable tales king jellybean was voiced by Tom Kenny who also voices spongebob and Ice King the name of the shop and something Rick this way comes is needful things and is a reference to the store in the Stephen King novel of the same name in close Rick counters of the Rick kind one of Rick's memories of Morty is picking him up as a child which is actually kind of interesting to note because rick has been absent from his family for like twenty years when he's insulting the devil's products and something Rick this way comes Rick references the twilight zone jerry has an antique coin collection that replaces George Washington with r2d2 he claims that Beth hates him because he bought them the shoes mein Rick and Morty are the Rick and Morty of dimension c-137 it's implied that c-137 is the reality in which Rick Cronenberg the world in red potion number nine for that has yet to be stated which dimension it was that they escaped to and are currently in the council of ricks and the episode closer encounters of the rick kind is a parody of marvel's council of reeds more than the frequent burping Adult Swim was concerned with how many times rick says Morty's name in the episode risky business the song that plays at the end of the episode is titled booty bass shake that ass can I even say that at the office where the creator's work on Rick and Morty there's a pile of nerf guns and flickering fluorescent lights because no one's come back to fix them thanks for watching 107
