No further comment from anyone. This is actually a very Rick and morty solution to the problem.

Irony Be My Shield posted:I mean him continuing to play the characters isn't on the table because he will probably soon be in prison. They can, however, stop making the show. First time DV offender with deep pockets going to prison? Yeah… No. He’s probably going to lose his guns, but otherwise- there is not gonna be any prison time for Roiland, unless the poo poo is grievous, and grievous in the world of DV usually doesn’t end up being prosecuted solely as DV. Worst case is a lot of community service, probation, and a fine. Technically the worst case is prison time, but kind of like how most murderers don’t get the Death Penalty, most abusers don’t get prison. Especially so for wealthy first timers.

Hollywood Reporter have a "heres the meltdown" story. It claims that Roiland and Harmon haven't been on speaking terms for a while. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-features/justin-roiland-animation-empire-implosion-rick-and-morty-1235319366/ quote:At some point during the third season of Rick and Morty, multiple sources say Roiland simply stopped showing up — and when he did turn up in the Burbank offices, he’d typically avoid the writers room. In fact, Roiland’s colleagues often knew he was there only because they could hear his dogs. Or they’d hear his remote-control toy car, which had a microphone on top of it, zooming around the office. At least once, Roiland sent it into the writers room, says a source. “You wouldn’t have seen him in weeks, and then you’d see the car come in, which was insane.” Roiland would make exceptions to bring through famous fans, of which Rick and Morty has legions; at various points, his visitors included Kanye West, the comedians on Impractical Jokers and porn star Riley Reid, who gifted the room a succulent. the stuff about cruising for threesomes came up a lot in the leaked texts to fans massive spider fucked around with this message at 18:02 on Feb 7, 2023 |

Listen, if I had something that delivered giantic trucks of cash to my door and only required me doing stupid voices from home you bet I wouldn't turn up at the office. I wouldn't be sexually harassing people though, I'd be teaching dogs to ride jetskis or whatever people with trucks full of cash do.

Story has the ring of truth to it, aside from everyone frantically saying they've been distant from Roiland for ages (although that's source bias). Harmon and Roiland falling out in Season 3 because that is both where the show takes a big shift away from Roiland nonsense stories and towards Harmon stories-about-family. Also a much greater emphasis on the rest of the family and episodes resting on other voice actors. Finally, this is a period where Harmon is Getting His poo poo Together in terms of his personal life and reassessing a friendship with someone like Roiland is consistent with that. e: and yes they should have sacked him the first time around

I can't believe this doofus: 1) drove an RC car WITH a microphone around the office 2) avoided the writers' room of an animated series 3) sex-pested female employees 4) gave tours to celebrities, and otherwise didnt do poo poo at the office Why the gently caress does the entertainment industry tolerate people who do this kind of poo poo? Don't they need to, ya know, work?

Him being a lazy goof off in and of itself is fine and I will totally support peoples right to be lazy goof offs so long as their job isnt like, air traffic controller. Its the sex pesting thats the issue. Guy should have just sat back literally phoning in his lines leaving the writing to the good writers and not sex pesting anyone and he would have been alright.

If it wasn't for the charges and creepy DMs no one would care and The Hollywood Reporter wouldn't have ran the story, this would have come out years after the show ended on some podcast. He secured main voice roles on Rick and Morty and Solar Opposites, he was a position of leverage. He was the (co)creator voice lead, if he leaves absent a reason it is panic stations. Every little thing in both shows would be magnified as the show going off rails. As said in this thread, use your position of leverage to be a lazy goof with millions of dollars and fans, lots of people here would probably do it just don't do the bad poo poo.
