The ‘Rick and Morty’ universe witnessed a whirlwind of events in its last season. The destruction of the Citadel during the Season 5 climax led Evil Morty to venture to a realm beyond the Central Finite Curve. With Portal technology largely out of the picture in Season 6, viewers were treated to unique cosmic escapades set within the main dimension. But, as the season concluded, the narrative shifted its spotlight back to Rick Prime, cementing his status as the series’ principal antagonist.
Whispers and Speculations: Who’s Behind the Voices?
Since the inception of ‘Rick and Morty’, series co-creator Justin Roiland lent his voice to both iconic characters. However, a twist came in January 2023 when Adult Swim severed ties with Roiland following multiple allegations which were eventually dismissed. The big question now lingers: who will be the new voices of Rick and Morty? While the official announcement is yet to be made, Executive Producer Steven Levy teased at San Diego Comic-Con 2023 that fans can expect “sound-alikes”. A buzzworthy theory also hints at Looney Tunes’ star Eric Bauza stepping in, but this will only be confirmed when the season premiere airs.
When and Where to Catch the New Adventures
Mark your calendars as ‘Rick and Morty‘ Season 7 kickstarted its journey on Sunday, October 15, with episodes being broadcasted at 11 p.m. Eastern. Those eager to stream the episodes online might face some challenges. The most straightforward approach is through a cable subscription or its equivalent like YouTube TV. Fans can catch the action on Cartoon Network or via the livestream on the Adult Swim website, provided they have a cable login. For those seeking alternatives, purchasing a season pass from platforms such as iTunes or Amazon will grant access to new episodes the next day.

Unveiling Season 7’s Mysteries
With the premiere having taken the center stage, enthusiasts have nine more episodes to look forward to in this season, keeping in line with the usual ten-episode format of previous seasons. The inaugural episode is intriguingly titled “How Poopy Got His Poop Back”, and given Mr. Poopybutthole’s appearance in the Season 7 trailer, it’s clear he plays a significant role. The official episode description reads, “Broh, come out with us, you’re being so boring, dude,” hinting at some fun-filled adventures.
As for a glimpse into the season, Adult Swim has yet to release trailers specifically for the premiere. However, a comprehensive Season 7 trailer is available for fans to get a sneak peek.
A Glimpse into the Future: More ‘Rick and Morty’ on the Horizon
The adventures of ‘Rick and Morty‘ are far from over. Securing a renewal for a whopping 70 episodes in May 2018, fans can rest assured that at least three more seasons (Seasons 8, 9, and 10) will grace our screens in the coming years. The duo’s interdimensional escapades continue to promise humor, drama, and a lot more wackiness.
