Producer credit declined on Rick & Morty (this will be an ongoing problem)
Rick and Morty continues to credit J. Michael Mendel with "produced by" despite the fact that he died 2019. Like Sam Simon on The Simpsons, I added him as
J. Michael Mendel produced by (credit only)
The submission was: 210621-165450-790000

Hi Adrian -
Thanks for outlining the issue, this episode Producer credit has now been approved, the additional episode credit for episode #5.2 has also been approved and the credits should be live on the site shortly.
Cheers!

It would be incorrect to put 'credit only' behind his name, because a lot of season 5 was already written by the time Mendel died, so he did work on it. I have no idea how future seasons will deal with his name, but season 5 shouldn't be 'credit only'.
