It looks like the Adult Swim Instagram account posted, then took down, an announcement for the premiere of a Rick and Morty Season 3 teaser trailer. Luckily, contributors to the Rick and Morty subreddit managed to snag a pic.
According to the since-deleted Instagram post, the first teaser trailer for Rick and Morty Season 3 will air Friday night at 12:15 am (so, early Saturday morning). “Get Ready,” the caption reads.
12:15 places the Rick and Morty Season 3 teaser right after The Eric Andre Show. Here’s the now-deleted post:
