Less than two weeks before its fourth season debuts on Adult Swim, Rick and Morty has set a library deal on HBO Max.
The animated comedy has unusually strong appeal with younger viewers, on digital and ancillary platforms as well as traditional television. The show recently got a 70-episode order and its upcoming fourth season, which will continue airing on Adult Swim.
All three seasons of Rick and Morty that have aired to date will be available to viewers on the service when HBO Max launches in the U.S. in May 2020. Future seasons of Rick and Morty will continue to premiere on Adult Swim before streaming on HBO Max.
The deal is not exclusive. Rick and Morty’s current streaming home, Hulu, will continue to carry the hit animated comedy. The Disney-controlled platform has actually expanded its agreement with Adult Swim to get access to all 101 existing and commissioned episodes of the show.
