Rick and Morty wrapped up season 3 last night (at the time of writing this), and in the usual post-credits epilogue, Mr. Poopybutthole warned fans that they would be in for a long wait until season 4 - long enough that he would be sport a 'big, white, Santa Claus beard' when we next saw him.
While there are a lot of fans who believe that Rick and Morty season 3 isn't really done, other fans have started to embrace the idea that we're in for a long wait, and are already calculating just how long that wait will be.
Here's when Rick And Morty season 4 will start, according to fan theories.
The Christmas Surprise Theory

The Roiland Theory
Fans who have been following the career of Rick and Morty co-creator Justin Roiland have spotted this little Easter egg, which may reveal when Rick and Morty season 4 may be coming:

The Banana Age Theory
Some fans think that Mr. Poopybutthole's mention of time passing between season 3 and season 4 was actually a mathematical clue as to when season 4 will air:

The Pothead Theory
Some fans think that Rick and Morty season 4 really won't be coming for a long time. A very long time, in fact.
Based on the personalities of showrunners Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland, there's a future air date that seems too good not to utilize:
