    Personally I will not be watching the shows at all in protest. Someone lied about Justin and now he lost his job even though the case didn’t result in his conviction on all charges. The studios need to bring him back and apologize.

    1. Brandon

      Same here if you can just lose your job because someone lies about you what’s the point of anything

  2. Sam

    The show ended last season You’re just wasting money now. Charges were dropped you totally Johnny depped him. Peace out trick and borty, the wish version of rick and morty.

    1. Anghel

      This is going to turn into another Disney movie

  3. T

    Umm no, this is not going to work.

  4. Brian McMahon

    I think it’s a HUGE MISTAKE.
    Not to mention a miscarriage of justice.

    Solar Opposites is ruined. I just saw the teaser for the new season.

    I wonder how they’ll destroy Rick and Morty now. So utterly disappointing. I can’t even tell you…

    Charges dropped due to lack of evidence, and I thought the standards were pretty low for domestic violence. I hope Justin sues them all!

    1. dm

      purposefully ignoring the fact there’s huge amounts of evidence of him being a paedophile, including him admitting to liking young teens openly.

  6. John Hoover

    All allegations should be taken seriously and thoroughly investigated but we NEED to stop punishing people before they are found guilty.

  7. Steve

    Either reinstate Roiland or I’m not watching. We have to stop destroying people over “allegations”. People lie. Either prove he did something wrong or give him his creation back. If not- I hope he sues their asses off.

  8. Anthony

    I really don’t care. I’ll watch it as long as the writing is above average. Also, Roiland makes very little from actually voicing the character, so “protesting” it would cause him to lose money on future royalties.

  9. Jeff

    These shows are dead to me without Justin. Just shut them down now and get it over with.

  10. It’s not fair to fire someone without a guilty verdict. I think the show is getting kinda lame but still. . Dumping him was not the answer. . .

  11. Pretty sure he has more than enough money to live comfortably but it’s always terrible when people are fired without true do cause

  12. Robert

    I watched the trailer for the new season and the new voice actor is absolutely terrible. They didn’t even try to sound good. Very sad that show is ruined completely now.

    1. Siko

      agreed.
      both shows are dead now for sure.

  13. Dubya Smith

    Either bring Justin back or you’ve loss another fan!

  14. Jerry Smith

    UNCANCEL JUSTIN ROILAND! #UNCANCELJUSTINROILAND

  15. James

    Look at that Disney defends real criminals but yet boycotts the actual innocent people

  16. Md ren

    Y’all seriously aren’t getting it. He hasn’t been pulling his weight or even wanting to put any effort into his shows. He was fired for that, the allegations were just the cherry on top

  17. john paul misselwitz

    i am absolutely amused that you are sitting all over my experirnce for the last two years, and I’m guessing since you hate it so much and it would be an absolute dream for me, not to mention ….well i wont mention what im wearing right now but i want to toss my hate into the ring on this and piss in everyones cheerios .

  18. Ed Dubois

    Sounds like they are trying to coca cola classic us on this. I won’t be watching this without Justin, he makes the shows. Without him is a waste of time and money.

  19. Terrible. They should rehire Roland and apologize. Sickening. Anyone can say any lies they want and ruin careers? Lives? Disgusting. Korvo’s new voice is ridic. Should hVe tried to mimic

  20. Max

    Great job. I officially lost interest. Well these shows had a great run. Whoever is in charge of casting should smoke a turd because that’s what they are about to do to these shows.

  21. Fatfuc45

    Justin Roiland, ever since I he debut of Rick and Morty, has shown he is one of the best voice actors of today! Idiotic is what I call not bringing back the talent wventhoughhe is innocent. My Rick and Morty collection ended with Season 6

  22. Pat

    Great shows getting ruined again by something that has absolutly nothing to do with the show. If something works why tamper with it. Now the entire dynamics of the show(s) are ruined. Kill yourself not Rick!

  23. Kyle

    Absolutely worse decision to use someone with such a thick British accent and lack of comedic tone. It’s messed up what they did to Justin and they just ruined my favorite series by doing this. Korvo makes terry and the replicants with his deep bossy studdering voice and all the people I seen on Twitter cannot be fans if they are happy with the voice. For those people I hope they make Rick sound like Peter Griffen that is impersonating David Attenborough and leave Mortys voice the same and see how that works. Should have at least found a voice impersonator if not just keeping Justin. That teaser is absolutely horrid I can’t believe anyone in their right mind thinks that’s an upgrade.. People need WOKE up for real or go back to sleep.. Disney is slaughtering their classics too left and right.. The voice thing coulda worked maybe for an episode but looks like that’s korvo now. SMH , I will cancel Hulu now since you ruined the only show I watch on it.

  24. Kyle

    Exactly what their doing. Taking allegations that weren’t even proven true and ruined the shows dynamic.. Korvo makes the show and they bring someone in that sounds about as opposite as you can get from his character to voice it because you have feeling about some accusations he was aquited for or you would not like the new voice. I’m so mad they ruined the show. Plenty of people could do korvos voice

    What a world we love in the man gets cleared and stilled remains axed from something he co created , was such i creative original show I won’t be bothering it was great while it lasted …
