Adult Swim has cut all ties with Rick and Morty co creator Justin Roiland after a felony domestic violence charge from a May 2020 incident. Adult Swim has said they will recast all voices he did and Rick and Morty will go on as planned. Roiland has also been accused of grooming underage girls after one released screenshots allegedly showing private conversations between Roiland and her when she was 16. This is not the first time he has been accused of inappropriate behavior with minors. clickable text |

Since I forgot all about R&M, I guess I won't miss anything. I do think someone should be found guilty before being fired. Of course, if he IS guilty, certain body parts of his need to be flattened with a red-hot mallet. IMHO |

Sounds a little similar to Ren and Stimpy. John K had underage girls living with him that he was grooming. Hated that because I was such a huge fan. Finally got it in my head that there were a lot of people involved in the show other than John K so I couldn't just write off the whole thing. "Hate the artist, not the art" kind of thing. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by drchaos Roiland hasn't been writing nearly as much since at least season 4. Some of the extras on that season are about the newer team of writers and how it was almost like a special event when either Harmon or Roiland were heavily involved in writing episodes anymore. The new voices they hire will be the make or break point imo. |

What if he promises not to do it again and pays a $500 fine? | ||

All charges dropped against Justin Roiland due to lack of evidence. Too many people eager to pile on before a fair trial can happen. |

I wonder if he will be back now that he is cleared. If he really didn't do anything sure cost him a lot of money and his reputation. | ||

He might I honestly don't care really I love Rick and morty that's about it. Either way he will not come out the same no matter what he does. These things stick to you true or untrue. Some things just being associated stains you. He might be a huge doosh who knows. | ||

I get why companies would suspend or have a person step away while trials play out. I just don't understand why these people are guilty the second they are accused. He may be but this happens so often now. If I was famous I would avoid almost everyone. | ||

By most accounts the guy was an absolute pain whether he committed a crime or not. I'm sure folks are happy to take the out to not work with him anymore. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-features/justin-roiland-animation-empire-implosion-rick-and-morty-1235319366/ | ||

I'm sure that's true. Dan Harmon is no picnic either. He got fired from a season of his own show too. That writers room should get hazard pay. | ||

The thing is as soon as all this happened their are countless stories about him not being involved the last few seasons. Like that's a plus. The last few seasons of the show are way worse. They are not bad, just much worse. The first 3 seasons of the show are on my short list for funniest shows I have seen. | ||

The issue is the making public of allegations that could not be substantiated. It's an uphill battle for him from anyone who knows this story, from here on out....if he has a disagreeable personality? Even more of an uphill battle....disagreeable personalities are not crimes. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by IronMan I agree. if there wasnt any evidence. its likely never happened....not saying it didnt. but I feel punishment is only right if there is without a shadow of a doubt. people were so close wanting to cancel Depp (they still do for some reason despite truth is out there) all because of lies. What if Rolland is innocent. are we seriously ready to ruin the life of someone without facts? if he did do it...then there will be proof |
