Reinstate Justin Roiland as the Voice of Rick in Rick and Morty


Reinstate Justin Roiland as the Voice of Rick in Rick and Morty
The Issue
My brother and I have shared countless laughs over the unique humor of Rick and Morty, a bond that was largely built on the distinctive voice work of Justin Roiland as Rick. His departure from this role has deeply affected our enjoyment of the show, to the point where my brother refuses to watch any new seasons or episodes without him. We are not alone in this sentiment; many fans worldwide resonate with our feelings.
Justin Roiland's portrayal of Rick is not just a voice - it's a character that has become synonymous with the show itself. His comedic timing, his ability to convey complex emotions through his voice acting, and his undeniable chemistry with other cast members have all contributed significantly to making Rick and Morty one of Adult Swim's most popular shows.
According to Nielsen ratings, an average episode during its fourth season was watched by over 2 million viewers (source: The Hollywood Reporter). This demonstrates how beloved this show is - but also how much impact a change like this can have on its dedicated fan base.
We understand that decisions like these are often complex and multifaceted. However, we firmly believe that reinstating Justin Roiland as the voice actor for Rick would restore an essential element that made us fall in love with this show in the first place.
We urge those involved in casting decisions for 'Rick & Morty' to consider our plea seriously. Please bring back Justin Roiland as the voice actor for our beloved character – let us continue laughing at jokes and references together again! Sign our petition today!
