Oh, what a shame, and it's such a good show and the fans are such nice people who are not at all annoying.

Stupid, overreaching, presumptive, knee-jerk reaction. Stay woke, go broke. Charges do not a guilty man make.

Ffs! Shouldn’t adultswim wait until after the trial is over!? What happened to innocent until proven guilty in this world!? Oh that’s right… Our court systems are totally unjust & don’t care for truth, fairness or details. They’re happy to bust everyone for nothing…

At LEAST let the man be found Guilty first. What happens if he's found Not Guilty?

This is the way

Holy shit!

StorySlug Good luck in your new job!

It was the only possible decision but of course will be extremely interesting to see how the show goes forward considering Roiland basically was the show. My heart continues to go out to the women involved. A lot on Dan Harmon's shoulders now.

😬

Is he guilty?

It takes about 40 seconds of watching that show to know that it’s creators weren’t right. It’s like 80% narcissistic and maniacal ranting. Never understood its popularity.

All his bits are now getting wubbalubbadubdubbed over

Wow! I appreciate Adult Swim for prioritizing ethics in this instance. I hope the alleged victim receives justice. In these situations, I typically feel as though it is important to believe women. Regardless of the final verdict, I support Adult Swim’s decision.

They really should just cancel the show in these situations.

Definitely need to go ahead and end the show.

StorySlug Dammit. He makes a couple of my favorite shows, but it turns out he’s a crap-man! Well… I guess it shouldn’t be much of a surprise

welp.. good luck lmao

Dang that's sad

Dan Harmon will now be the sole creator for 'Rick and Morty.' The show is locked through season 10 and is not even halfway through a 70-episode order
