My Take on the Series

I’ve gotten a peek at the Blu-Ray release of the complete fifth season of Rick and Morty and it is definitely worth checking out.

This series bluray has a ton of amazing special features. Picking up this set will give you access to all ten episodes of season 5 as well as the other seasons too. This is a must have for any Rick & Morty fan. Inside of the bonus features you will also get some cool featurettes like “Fighting Gravity” which is exclusive to the release of Rick and Morty season 5. This is a feature where Dan Harmon and the crew of Rick and Morty talk about the challenges that went into making the season during the pandemic, not an easy endeavor to say the least. Aside from re-watching the episodes of season 5, this feature alone makes the set worth picking up.

Bonus Features
