People Are Angry That Rick And Morty Isn't Available In The UK Tonight

Fans of Rick and Morty have been left fuming after realising that they won't be able to tune into the fourth series this evening as it's not available in the UK until next year.

Channel 4 confirmed it would be exclusively airing the latest series of the sci-fi hit but it seems that's not good enough for some viewers.

Taking to Twitter, one fan ranted: "How is it that one of greatest shows of all time @RickandMorty season 4 is aired tonight in America and yet we in the UK don't officially get it until Jan?!?!!?! Are you [email protected]&£34 f&?(678 kidding me?"

Another added: "Totally not jealous of everyone in the US who get to enjoy Season 4 of Rick and Morty tonight. Meanwhile, us UK fans have to wait until January."

And a third person wrote: "Right I've just realised Rick and Morty won't be released in the UK till Jan 2020!!! So I need someone to help right about NOW to show me where I can watch it before i acc cry." Awks.

Split over two parts consisting of five episodes each, Rick and Morty will air on Channel 4, with repeats on E4 and episodes will be available to stream on All 4. Next year though...

The Emmy-winning animated comedy series follows a sociopathic genius scientist who drags his inherently timid grandson on insanely dangerous adventures across the universe.

Ian Katz, Director of Programmes for Channel 4, said: "Millions of fans have been waiting for more than two years for a new series of Rick and Morty, the most brilliantly bonkers show on television. We're thrilled that it will be aired exclusively on Channel 4 and I promise it will be worth the wait."

The fourth season's UK broadcast rights form part of a partnership with Adult Swim - the production team behind Rick and Morty.
