Expect out of this world adventures and shenanigans with Rick and Morty Season 8.
The iconic duo of Rick and Morty returns for an eighth season, almost two years after the Rick and Morty Season 7 finale. To recap, the seventh season marked the first time it parted ways with co-creator Justin Roiland, who also voiced the program’s two main characters, after prior criminal charges came to light. He was replaced by Ian Cardoni and Harry Belden, who currently voice Rick and Morty, respectively.
In Season 8, it’s business as usual for the Smiths, and the grumpy but brilliant Rick Sanchez, whose penchant for wild scientific discoveries often lead him and his grandson, Morty, to go on inter-dimensional adventures. Here’s everything to know about the new season.
