Part two of the mini doc series that shows how Rick and Morty came to be lays out the actual creation of the show and its subsequent development at Adult Swim. (Oh yeah, watch part one that shows the seeds of Rick and Morty being planted at Channel 101 if you haven’t already).
You’ll get to see how the show could have been drastically different were not for some ingenious retooling by Justin Roiland and Dan Harmon. Watch it here.
In case you weren’t aware, Rick and Morty had its humble beginnings from a beautiful thing called Channel 101.

Having already done zombie bits with a Walking Dead episode of Conan in the past, we can’t imagine what he’s going to pull on tonight’s episode with the cast of the Walking Dead.
With Drunk History’s third season ordered at Comedy Central, series creator Derek Waters got to chat with Seth Meyers at Late Night about the actual inception and development of Drunk History.
