Rick and Morty Season 8 is portalling into action this month. Read on for the premier date, as well as the full episode schedule, and where to watch.
In the eighth season of this adult-centric sci-fi sitcom, demented genius scientist Rick Sanchez returns for more cross-universal hijinks with his highly traumatised grandson Morty. As shown in the trailer, embedded below, they'll visit undersea enclaves, futuristic farms growing crystalline corn, and cities that appear to worship giant eggs.
According to the official synopsis, "Rick and Morty is back for season 8! Life has meaning again! Anything is possible! Look out for adventures with Summer, Jerry, Beth, and the other Beth. Maybe Butter Bot will get a new task? Whatever happens, you can't keep Rick and Morty down for long. People have tried!"

Where to Watch Rick and Morty Season 8
Rick and Morty Season 8 is exclusive to Adult Swim, so you can catch all the new episodes there. That's not all. The show has also been greenlit for seasons 9 and 10.
"Season 7 just represents one more brick in that road, and it's season 8, which is already written, when that comes out, I think it'll be even more so," co-creator Dan Harmon tells The Verge.
"It'll feel like a return to form and kind of like a 'we're back, baby' kind of feeling, and hopefully, season 9 will be that but, you know, even more so. But it'll be because it's been a gradual process of just trying to get our wind in our sails again."

Great Dane Realizes Owner's Ex Isn't Coming Home—His Reaction Breaks Hearts
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A woman out walking the streets of Vancouver randomly bumped into her ex's dog, a pleasant surprise, until she began walking away. Evelyn Martin, who posts on TikTok as @evelynmmartin, used to date someone who owned a Great Dane named Roman. However, when the relationship ended, so did her bonding time with Roman, whom she told Newsweek was always the best dog. And the feeling was mutual, as her July 7 video showed. Roman immediately lit up when he saw her on the same block while being walked by the dog walker. Martin went over to say hello and give him some long-overdue pets. The quick exchange wasn't enough for Roman, though. Martin began walking away, but she hesitated after seeing how distraught Roman became at the thought of her not coming home with him. His wagging tail slowed down, sinking with sadness. He wouldn't budge as the dog walker tried to move him along. Screenshots from a July 7 TikTok video of a Great Dane showing "big emotions" as his owner's ex pets him and leaves. Screenshots from a July 7 TikTok video of a Great Dane showing "big emotions" as his owner's ex pets him and leaves. @evelynmmartin/TikTok Martin couldn't stand the thought of leaving him that way, so she rushed over for a few more pets. As she approached him, Roman began jumping up and down, still holding onto hope she'd return home with him. Funny enough, Martin knew this was how Roman would react. He's always been one with "big feelings," she said. He would give the same worried look to Martin when she would leave the house while dating his owner. Previous videos from her Instagram account, @evelyn_martin, show how strong the relationship between Martin and Roman had been. He would follow her home on walks, making sure she arrived safely. He never turned down cuddles. And while he received attention from strangers, he only ever perked up when Martin arrived. Viewer Reactions The TikTok clip had reached over 1.1 million views and 232,700 likes as of Tuesday, with people demanding that she prioritize the dog's needs, stop breaking his heart, and get back together with her ex. "If a dog tells you you're coming over, you're coming over," commented one viewer. "Sounds like a co-parenting situation is needed," another person said. But, because not all relationships are meant to last forever, a commenter pointed out: "At least there's one thing y'all can agree on: he seems like a really good boy."

WWE Superstar Drew McIntyre Trashes Travis Scott
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Drew McIntyre and Logan Paul have some harsh words for celebrity "outsiders" in WWE. On the latest episode of the Impaulsive podcast, the duo took aim at both Travis Scott for his WrestleMania 41 interference and their upcoming SummerSlam opponent, Jelly Roll. The conversation highlights a growing debate within wrestling about the right and wrong way for celebrities to get involved in the business. Both McIntyre and Paul made it clear they feel there is a certain level of respect and athleticism required. McIntyre Blasts Travis Scott The most scathing comments were reserved for multi-platinum recording artist Travis Scott. McIntyre blamed Scott for ruining the main event of WrestleMania 41, where his interference helped John Cena defeat Cody Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Championship. "Do a six-minute run-in at WrestleMania and screw up our damn main event," McIntyre said of Scott's involvement. He then bluntly added, "Travis Scott. Piece of s---." An Insulting Comparison The conversation then shifted to their current rival, Jelly Roll. Logan Paul, a celebrity who has earned respect for his incredible athletic ability in the ring, said he finds it "insulting" when a non-athlete thinks they can just walk into the business. McIntyre echoed this sentiment with sarcasm. More news: WWE News: Steve Austin Reveals Real-Life Vince McMahon Confrontation "Jelly Roll, with that major athletic background that I'm always hearing about as a kid and all the sports he played," McIntyre joked. "I don't know, dominoes in jail, I assume?" McIntyre did give credit to the "anomalies" who have successfully transitioned, naming Paul himself, Kurt Angle, and Ronda Rousey as natural athletes who took to wrestling quickly.

HOUSTON, TEXAS - MARCH 11: Drew McIntyre talks to the crowd during WWE Monday Night RAW at Toyota Center on March 11, 2024 in Houston, Texas. Alex BierensThe Modern "Respectful" Celebrity The comments from McIntyre and Paul tap into a long history of celebrity involvement in WWE. While legends like Mr. T and Mike Tyson brought massive mainstream attention to the company, there have been many instances of celebrity appearances that have been poorly received by fans. In the modern era, a new standard has been set by stars like Logan Paul and Bad Bunny. Both men have been praised by fans and fellow wrestlers for their dedication, intense training, and clear respect for the wrestling business. Their critically acclaimed in-ring performances have created an expectation that any celebrity who steps into a WWE ring must be willing to put in the work. McIntyre and Paul's comments frame Travis Scott and Jelly Roll as celebrities who are not meeting that new, higher standard. The Road To SummerSlam These comments are the latest shots fired in the build to a massive tag team match at SummerSlam. The feud ignited on SmackDown on July 11th when Paul confronted Jelly Roll, leading to Randy Orton making the save. After more chaos at Saturday Night's Main Event, the match was made official: Randy Orton & Jelly Roll vs. Drew McIntyre & Logan Paul. The war of words is sure to intensify as the blockbuster match approaches. More WWE News: For more on WWE, head to Newsweek Sports
