How The Rick and Morty Finale Sets Up Season 7 | Rick and Morty Canon Fodder

The Rick and Morty holiday special marks the end of Rick and Morty Season 6 of the Adult Swim hit. Rick Sanchez has been a big journey for this season of Rick & Morty, as Dan Harmon and Justin Rowland promised, but it’s not what it seems. Morty Smith uncovers an upsetting truth, and Morty isn’t as happy with Rick anymore as a result. We also return to the multiverse of it all with season favorites like Space Beth back as a regular fixture. 
The Rick and Morty Season 6 Finale, like a past Rick and Morty finale before it, zeroes in on the ongoing canon story, and what to do with Rick Prime. Who is Rick Prime? He matters and cares more than most Ricks would like to admit, and is one of those looming figures, like Evil Morty. It looks like Rick and Morty canon is on full blast and we may just learn more about Rick Sanchez wife Diane, young Beth Sanchez, and more. Hopefully Space Beth sticks around as a fixture too. Star Wars is the surprising focus of this episode, and Rick finally brings an answer to a nerd question on this finale for Rick and Morty. Lightsaber fanatics will want to be sure to catch this one, with Rick and Morty Star Wars goodness (and badness) all over this finale. IGN host/producer Kim Horcher breaks it down on this edition of Canon Fodder.
