Rick and Morty fans received some good news this week. The series has been renewed for a seventh season which will premiere on Sunday, October 15. Adult Swim president Michael Ouweleen confirmed the news, “It’s happening. Thanks to the talent of the entire show team, we can all enjoy 10 new episodes that yet again raise the bar for comedy and animation. This season proves that the geniuses at work on Rick and Morty are just getting started.”

Due to recent controversy surrounding the show’s co-creator and voice of the titular characters Justin Roiland, he was removed from the project. With Roiland’s departure, Dan Harmon is taking control of the project with returning cast members Chris Parnell, Sarah Chalke, and Spencer Grammer as Jerry, Beth and Space Beth, and Summer. Rick and Morty will be voiced by a “sound alike” actor that can mimic the iconic voices. The season’s official synopsis comments on this with meta humor, “Rick and Morty are back and sounding more like themselves than ever! It’s season seven, and the possibilities are endless: What’s up with Jerry? EVIL Summer?! And will they ever go back to the high school?! Maybe not! But let’s find out! There’s probably less piss than last season. Rick and Morty, 100 years! Or at least until season 10!” The series has the record of being the top comedy show in its third through sixth seasons, reaching over 19 million viewers in 2022. In addition to its season seven, a Rick and Morty anime is in development, giving fans plenty of content to keep them entertained.
