"Rick and Morty" Season 4 may be confirmed, but the wait for the new season remains uncertain.

On Sunday, "Rick and Morty" Season 3 aired its finale titled "The Rickchurian Mortydate" on Adult Swim. Now, fans are wondering what's next for the hit adult comedy sitcom. Fans and viewers have waited for almost two years for the third season and they are now wondering if the wait for Season 4 would take the same time.

According to Coming Book, series creator Dan Harmon is taking the challenge and wants to prove how he has improved since his debunked series on NBC that aired for three seasons. "I never got this far [working on NBC’s] 'Community,'" Harmon said. "I fell apart in Season 3 of 'Community' and got fired in Season 4. Now I'm about to do season 4 of 'Rick and Morty' and want to prove that I've grown."

If Harmon and co-creator Justin Roiland will deliver the episodes on time, the publication believes that new episodes of "Rick and Morty" Season 4 might be available in the summer of 2018. However, given the continuous delay of its premiere episodes in the last three seasons, viewers have some reasons to doubt.

Adult Swim has officially renewed the animated sitcom for another season, per RenewCancelTV. Harmon said in a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly that he wanted to deliver more episodes in "Rick and Morty" Season 4. Initially, Season 3 is expected to air 14 episodes, but creators Harmon and Roiland failed to deliver, so they only had 10 episodes, which is short for an animated sitcom. For instance, Fox's "The Simpsons" ran 22 episodes per season.

"I would like to think I've learned enough from my mistakes in Season 3 that we could definitely do 14 now," Harmon confessed to EW. "But then I have to say, 'Yeah but you're the guy who says we can do 14 who turned out to be wrong so we're not listening to you now.' The nice healthy way to approach this is I want to prove it with the first 10 of Season 4 — prove it to ourselves, to production, to the network — that it's so easy that we'll earn additional episodes."
