Every new season of Adult Swim's Rick & Morty is a big deal, and the same holds true for the upcoming sixth season. The sci-fi animated comedy's future has been set in stone for years—having a multi-season renewal offers some degree of safety—but there's still a degree of unpredictability from the show that always makes it worth talking about. But for series co-creator Justin Roiland, season six is a chance to right the ship in some respects.

Along with its release date reported earlier in the week, Roiland spoke with IGN about his aims with the new season, namely that it'll be "fucking amazing" compared to season five. His feelings for last season are wrapped up in its line producer J. Michael Mendel died in 2019 as the season was in mid-production. "Season 5 was a weird one," Roiland admitted, saying that it was "tough" due to losing Mendel. "We were thrown for a loop. That was... yeah. If I talk anymore, I'll start crying."
