[Yes, 70.](https://news.avclub.com/adult-swim-orders-70-more-episodes-of-rick-and-morty-1825902906) So, where in those 70 does it jump the shark? Or did it already? 😃 ---

Something DREW me to get McNuggets this afternoon with Szechuan Sauce (no kidding, I actually did). ---

70 episodes? Are 20-year contracts common in television? ---

Bird Person’s interpretation of “Wubba Lubba Dub Dub!” is looking more accurate all the time. Hijack - did anyone else see the April 1 [Australian Rick & Morty episode](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v6yg4ImnYwA&t=519s)? ---

> [@Darren\_Garrison](#): > > 70 episodes? Are 20-year contracts common in television? Twenty years? I was thinking this was going to be more like 200 years total between seasons. ---

Maybe now the other shoe will drop about Phoenix Person and Tammy. I kept expecting that to happen last season. ---

> [@Snowboarder\_Bo](#): > > Good news, everyone! That’s a different show set in Space 🙂 This is a lot of episodes. Wow. My prediction is the original creative team of Harmon and Roiland won’t make it to the end and at least one other creative team takes over. ---

> [@Darren\_Garrison](#): > > 70 episodes? Are 20-year contracts common in television? Here is something I can’t imagine many people know. Charlie Sheen made 100 episodes of Anger Management. It aired almost every week for two years. I can’t believe they ordered that many more or less up front. ---

I wouldn’t be surprised if Roiland might go the Seth MacFarlane route and leave the writing room but just keep doing the voices. And Harmon is notoriously slow/perfectionist so he might also move on before the end. ---
