Last year, Adult Swim delivered one of its greatest April Fool’s Day pranks to date by premiering the first episode of Rick and Morty season 3 without any advance warning. Given the glacial pace of the fourth season – which has yet to be officially ordered – few fans expected to see any sign of Rick and Morty this year. However, Adult Swim did have a Rick and Morty surprise this year, and it wasn’t anything we could have predicted.Instead of the fourth season premiere, Adult Swim debuted a short called Bushworld Adventures, which re-imagined Rick and Morty in an alternate universe in which their show takes place in Australia. It’s a far less fantastical take on the characters, which makes for some very uncomfortable moments when Rick holds a “portal” gun to Morty’s head. Especially since it looks just like a real gun.
