Rick and Morty Season 8 Returns After Hiatus

Adult Swim has announced that 'Rick and Morty' Season 8 will premiere on May 25, 2025, at 11 p.m. ET/PT, following a one-year hiatus due to production delays from the Writers Guild of America strike. The new season will feature the return of the core voice cast and is expected to continue the show's tradition of absurd interdimensional adventures. A teaser reveals a 'German Easter' theme with 'Space Christians,' hinting at more of the show's signature humor. Episodes will be available for streaming on Max and Hulu starting September 1, 2025. The announcement was made during Adult Swim's April Fool's Day special, which featured live-action interpretations of the series' highlights.
