It's been revealed that that cult sci-fi cartoon Rick and Morty is set to be axed from Netflix.
From tomorrow, fans will no longer be able to enjoy the bizarre adventures of the cynical scientist Rick Sanchez and his incredibly anxious grandson, Morty Smith.
If you don't know what we're talking about, what have you been doing with your life?

For many the comedy has become an intrinsic part of both their lives and modern society - the characters's obsession with McDonald's Szechuan sauce managed to force the fast-food giant to put it back on the menu after almost 20 years. Such power.
But now Netflix have revealed on their site that the show will be removed for UK audiences tomorrow.
And unsurprisingly fans have not taken the news well. At. All.

Rosie Murphy took to Twitter to share her pain. She said: "Rick and Morty being taken off Netflix tomorrow has hurt more then it actually should, best show ever created."
Another shared her disbelief, saying: "How can Netflix take Rick And Morty off tomorrow?? Worst decision @netflix"
After hearing the news a third fan said they're are going to make the most of the time they have left with the much loved cartoon.
Thaigh Keogh wrote: "I've watched all 3 seasons of Rick and Morty 4 times now and betches I'll watch it again once more before it gets taken off Netflix tomorrow."

Carl Mortimer then added: "Rick and Morty being removed from Netflix in a few days is a travesty.."
Amen, Carl.
The animation was created by Justin Roiland and Dan Harmon and was originally aired on Adult Swim back in 2013.
Before the show appeared on Netflix, it was aired on FOX TV for the first two seasons, which were then available to watch on Comedy Central after season three aired on the streaming service.
Netflix bought the rights to stream the first two series and picked up the third, showing it as part of its Originals series.

Since then it has gone on to become one of the strangest and best loved adult cartoons around.
Earlier this year it was reported that Netflix were going to pull series one and two from the service, in October, because the streaming service has not paid Adult Swim to renew its licence to continue streaming it in the UK.
Despite the rumours, audiences in the UK have still been able to binge every episode of the three seasons to their hearts' content.
LADbible has contacted Netflix for a comment.
