The breakout star of 'Rick & Morty's third season has inspired some truly crazy activity online.

Rick & Morty fans will already be aware of the multitude of ridiculous characters the pair have encountered across their travels. But in this week's episode, the audience was introduced to maybe the weirdest one yet.

We are talking, of course, about Pickle Rick.

Adult Swim

Yes, Rick managed to turn himself into a pickle and, basically, things got surprisingly dark incredibly quickly...

Fans of the show have not only gone wild for the character onscreen, they have taken to the internet and shown their love in all manner of meme-related ways. Here are just a few of our fave online reactions to the mighty Pickle Rick:

1) The Walking Dead decided to indulge in some cross-promotion:

Now that we live in a world where Pickle Rick from #RickAndMorty exists, we made this exist: pic.twitter.com/nuCrxdfRQU
