The multiverse inhabited by Rick and MortyÂ is extremely entertaining to watch, but it also presents theÂ fairly cynical POV of Rick Sanchez. One of the recurring themes in the series is that nothing really matters at all. “Nobody exists on purpose, nobody belongs anywhere, everybodyâ€™s gonna die.” What does it say when this is the show’s most affecting line? Quite a bit, according to series co-creator Dan Harmon.Adult Swim has posted a new Rick and Morty video in which Harmon talks about the underlying themes and meanings behind the series. In it, Harmon saysÂ that Rick is “the seam between God and man,” and points out that the show hasÂ continuously revisited the theme of Rick’s indifference towards his creations. Harmon also mentions the “terrifying” idea that God is an impersonal cosmic force that doesn’t care about its creations, just like Rick.Click the image below to play the video:
