I'm sure Katie Rich will have better offers but I'll start bidding, will fly her to LA first class and give her what my studio pays me

Dan Harmon brutally took the blame for the delay of “Rick & Morty” season 3, saying that the third installment was a hard one to write. Even Justin Roiland would agree if he was present, Harmon said. This was the message he told the crowd at YouTube’s pop-up space in Park City, Utah. The co-creator admitted though that it was hard to identify what exactly is pulling them back. He just knew that there were creative struggles while he and Roiland were mapping out the show.

That being said, there are speculations that Dan Harmon is looking into hiring SNL writer Katie Rich after she was suspended for her Barron Trump tweets, Comic Book reported. Harmon took to Twitter to show his intentions of hiring Rick after her indefinite suspension by NBC. The writer was suspended after she saying that Barron will be American’s first home-school shooter. The message has been taken down and her account has since been deactivated. It's not yet clear what project he intended to put Rich on.
