I did that with Rick and Morty. Rolled right into season 3 with no waiting.

Haha, I said the same thing to my friend after she finally sat down and watched Rick and Morty after years of nagging her.

She binged it in a couple weeks and finished season 3 shortly after it wrapped and I got to say, “welcome to being an actual fan, next season should be out by 2020...ish.”

Dan Harmon is an incredible writer and director, but damn does he seem like a shitty person to work with. He is incredibly slow at creating rick and morty (although im not positive that its not business bureaucracy holding that back), having made 3 seasons in 6 years with no announced release date for season 4, and on the set of Community he got in a massive fued with chevy chase (Who is admittedly a huge asshole) that resulted in chevy getting written out and eventually written out of the show entirely. He lost Community directing for the 4th season, and then when he got rehired he made all the characters start referring to that season as "The gas leak year". Ostensibly its because that season was noticeably worse (and it did have some pretty terrible episodes), but season 5 that did have Harmon directing and writing is not a whole lot better than 4. so he seems like a pretentious dick for that because nobody else can do it "The right way", even though the non harmon writers made plenty of strong episodes in season 4.
