When I was writing Rick and Morty, it was, "How do I get ideas and how do I execute a script or a cut that will get as close to Dan and Justin's combined voice as possible so that they then can run with it?" That was my whole goal was, "What will get this to make Dan and Justin excited and happy and laughing and then they can make it the thing that they ?" On Solar Opposites, people are doing that for me and I'm getting to do things that are making me laugh that feel ridiculous. ![]() So it's an entirely different style of writing and a different thing. Solar is a TV writers', TV creators' little mini world like The Sims, where we get to be our own network and greenlight our own mini shows within Solar Opposites. But I cut my teeth on Rick and Morty, I started there as a writer's assistant, Harmon gave me my first script and Justin was into it and then working with them on Rick and Morty is what led to me and Justin wanting to do a crazier, stupider show that sort of followed our id and our bliss more than the careful crafting of Rick and Morty.īut both Rick and Morty and Solar Opposites are made by people who love watching TV and love making TV and we lean into it even more on Solar, you know what I mean? Not only is Solar inspired by classic family sitcoms and then changing and twisting everything, but also, weirdly, we make new shows within Solar, like Silvercops and The Wall. I really miss working on Rick and Morty, I miss working with Dan, obviously working with Justin scratched the itch on Solar Opposites quite a bit. Mike McMahan: You know, they're hard to compare. Screen Rant: Mike, given that you were such a big voice and collaborator on Rick and Morty, with three seasons now under your belt on Solar Opposites, how does working on this compare to that?
