If you were looking for another reason to love the fantastic Rick & Morty on Adult Swim, we’ve got one. The animators behind Rick & Morty just recently unionized on their own through the Animation Guild. This is important considering many of Adult Swim’s cartoons surprisingly aren’t unionized. 

The crew will now get a standard hourly wage, health coverage, pensions, etc. This undoubtedly will lead to a more productive team at Rick & Morty and one hell of a second season.
