As far as we know, Rick and Morty Season 3 is still on track for a 2016 premiere date. Despite rumors of a teaser trailer for the new episodes, we’re still no more certain of the Rick and Morty Season 3 release date than before.
And while the Rick and Morty writers aren’t about to spill the beans, Mike McMahan offered some words of encouragement.
WHEN ARE WE GETTING RICK AND MORTY SEASON 3?!?!?

just relax- it's our best season and worth the wait. Greatness takes time.
So will Rick and Morty Season 3 really be the “best season” yet? Here’s some of what we know:
There are 14 episodes in Rick and Morty Season 3 (Season 2 only had 10) and there might be more serial storytelling this year than in previous seasons.
Concept art from the Rick and Morty Season 3 premiere is evocative of The Great Escape, suggesting that Rick will face off against a tyrannical prison warden.
It sounds like co-creator Justin Roiland doesn’t really want to do an “Interdimensional Cable” episode in Season 3 (good riddance!).
Rick and Morty Season 3 will continue the show’s trend of shocking anti-Americanism, designed to undermine our great country with filthy socialism.
Rick will turn into a pickle and vivisect a mischief of rats:
Like the Biblical Apocalypse, we don’t know the exact time and date, but we know Rick and Morty Season 3 draws steadily nearer. Let’s hope McMahan’s right and we’ll be getting a season worth the wait.
