Rick and MortyThe start of season seven is a bit odd. Justin Roiland was dismissed after accusations about domestic violence. Rick and Morty has hired “soundalikes” to replace the many characters he plays (including both title characters). Adult Swim hasn’t announced who they are yet, and beyond an initial trailer look (also with no announcement) we haven’t seen much of what they’ll be like. Season 7 will likely have a different feel, in one way or another.
