Los Angeles, May 11 (IANS): Popular animated series "Rick and Morty" has been renewed for another 70 episodes.
Cable network Adult Swim has announced the renewal order, which is a part of a new long-term deal the network has signed with series creators Justin Roiland and Dan Harmon, reports variety.com.
The series follows a sociopathic genius scientist Rick who drags his inherently timid grandson Morty on insanely dangerous adventures across the multi-verse. The new deal will more than double the amount of episodes the series has currently aired.
