How to watch 'Rick and Morty' season 8 premiere: Stream online across the world
"Anything is possible!" screams Cartoon Network's Adult Swim channel. "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!"
Here's how to watch "Rick and Morty" season 8 online from anywhere with a VPN.
► Date: "Rick and Morty" season 8 premieres on Sunday, May 25 at 11:00 p.m. on Adult Swim. All episodes will then be available to stream on Max the following day. • U.S. — Adult Swim via Sling/Max• CAN — Adult Swim/StackTV• Watch anywhere — try NordVPN risk-free
You know what to expect - and that is not to expect anything that you might know to expect but this time the whole feel is looser than ever. Each episode is self-contained rather than belonging to there main arc (apart from episode 3, "The Rick, The Mort & The Ugly") - and that works in isolation.
Some reviews have said the season is less manic than usual and others have said it is less edgy but they all agree that it is still up to the very high bar it has set itself in terms of humor and intelligence (in particular with an Easter adventure to remember). As the channel puts it, "Life has meaning again!"
Ready for a brand new adventure ? Read on to find out how to watch "Rick and Morty" season 8 online and from anywhere.
Episodes will premiere every Sunday beginning May 25 at 11:00 P.M. ET on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim, which can be accessed with one of the best TV antennas, a cable TV package or a live TV streaming platform like Fubo, Sling TV, Hulu with Live TV or YouTube TV. Japanese language episodes will follow at the same time every Saturday on the channel.
Alternatively, episodes of "Rick and Morty" season 8 can be streamed the day after transmission on Adult Swim via the Max platform, starting Monday, May 26.
Max prices start at $9.99/month if you don't mind ads, going to $16.99/month for ad-free and $20.99/month if you want the option to watch content on up to four devices and in 4K. For even better value, you can pay for a whole year upfront and effectively get 12 months at a discounted price on any of its tiers.
Traveling outside the States? You'll need to use a VPN to unblock Max when abroad.
If "Rick and Morty" season 8 isn't available where you're currently located, that doesn't mean you have to miss out on this show while you're away from home. With the right VPN (virtual private network), you can stream the show from anywhere.

Using a VPN is incredibly simple.
1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, NordVPN is our favorite.
2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance, if you're visiting the U.K. and want to view a U.S. service, you'd select a U.S. server from the location list.
3. Sit back and enjoy the show. Head to your streaming service app — so Max, for example — and watch "Rick and Morty" season 8 online from wherever you are in the world.
In Canada, episodes will air on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim on the same schedule as the U.S. and be available to stream the following day via the STACKTV add-on with Prime Video, which grants access to programming from Global Television, the Disney Channel, National Geographic, Showcase, W Network, and Adult Swim.

Those on vacation away from Canada will need one of the best VPNs to use their usual streaming service when abroad. We recommend NordVPN.
There's nothing confirmed for "Rick and Morty" season 8 in the U.K., however, when it does arrive we'd expect it to be available on the free Channel 4 streaming service very soon, which is where every episode of the original series premieres in Blighty, before moving over to Netflix.
Those on vacation away from the U.K. will need a good streaming VPN to log in back home to use Channel 4 as they will be geo-blocked when not at home. We recommend NordVPN.
"Rick and Morty" season 8 arrives in Oz on Max on Monday, May 26.
In Australia, Max pricing starts from AU$11.99, with a AU$10 increase for premium.

Warner Bros. Discovery to split into two companies
Warner Bros. Discovery will split into two companies by next year, with much of its streaming and movie production moving under one company and its live sports and news to another. The deal, announced Monday, comes just three years after Warner Bros. and Discovery merged in a bid to capture more of the highly competitive streaming market and hunt for 130 million paying subscribers on its Max service. As of March, the company had nearly reached that goal, having reached more than 122 million subscribers, according to its most recent quarterly report.

Breaking down the Emmys' most dramatic battle: ‘The Pitt' vs. ‘Severance'
Have you at any point this year consulted WebMD to learn the possible side effects of reintegration? And if the answer is yes, does that mean your favorite show is 'Severance,' or does your (possibly neurotic) interest in medicine put you squarely in the camp of 'The Pitt'? I'm Glenn Whipp, columnist for the Los Angeles Times and host of The Envelope newsletter. And no, it's not too early to choose sides in the upcoming Emmy showdown between the Apple TV+ and Max drama series. Let's take a page from Lumon founder Kier Eagan and 'be ever merry' while we take an early look at the race. It would be easy — and perhaps reductive — to boil down the battle between 'Severance' and 'The Pitt' as a matter of choosing the head or the heart. The loopy 'Severance' tells the story of people in a workplace doing a job they don't understand, partially because they've had chips implanted in their brains to create two selves ('innies' and 'outies') that are both distinct and the same. The show's second season found Outie Mark (Adam Scott) looking to reintegrate his two halves and liberate Innie Mark from his corporate enslavement. Only Innie Mark has questions about how all this will work and whether he wants to sublimate himself and end his relationship with another innie, Helly R. (Britt Lower). I could go on for several thousand words about all this because 'Severance' trades in the art of indirection, taking its sweet time to reveal the mysteries hidden within the blinding-white offices of Lumon Industries. Some people find the ambiguity confounding. The show's fans disagree, burrowing into the corporate cult(ure) of Lumon with glee. A herd of goats in a conference room? Of course! But why? Off to the subreddit we go! And don't forget the waffles! 'The Pitt' is also set in a workplace, a hospital emergency room. Its 15-episode first season follows what happens during a very eventful shift, each episode depicting one hour of the shift. It's a reunion for several key members of the team that made 'ER,' including creator R. Scott Gemmill, executive producer John Wells (who also directed the season's first and last episode) and star Noah Wyle. Some may consider this sacrilege, but with 'The Pitt,' they've built a better show. I offer this opinion as one who was devastated more than once by the chaos and drama that Wyle's Dr. Robby and his team dealt with during the season. Their despair became our despair — and if you've had the misfortune of visiting an emergency room recently, you know that the healthcare crisis shown on 'The Pitt' is real and getting worse. When the team's shift ended in the season finale, you were both relieved for its heroic characters and sad that you wouldn't be seeing them again until the second season drops. You felt like you'd been through something together. When Emmy nominations are announced next month, I'd expect that 'The White Lotus' and 'The Last of Us' will share in the wealth, with each earning up to 20 or more mentions. 'The White Lotus' ensemble alone will account for a chunk of that number. But I don't think either of those shows will win the drama series prize. 'The Last of Us' will be hampered by a story arc that's essentially the first part of a two-season storyline. And while 'The White Lotus' kept us guessing until the end, few would argue that its third season was its best. That leaves 'Severance' and 'The Pitt,' the head and the heart. Except 'Severance' made viewers feel the tragedy of Mark's plight deeply. And 'The Pitt' smartly incorporated topical issues — violence against healthcare workers, hospital understaffing, sex trafficking, anti-vaccination misconceptions — into its season. I appreciate both shows, and I don't have to create an alternative version of myself to let these twin passions coexist. But like Mark in 'Severance,' at one point I'm going to have to choose. And like Mark, I'll likely opt for love. Bold prediction: 'The Pitt' ultimately squeaks by 'Severance' in a barn-burner for drama series. I mentioned the sometimes stubbornly confounding aspects of 'Severance,' and the show's creators and actors are self-aware enough to know what they're doing and how its audience might react. 'I was scared of some of the risks [the creative team] were taking: 'What if this doesn't work?'' actor Patricia Arquette tells Tim Grierson for The Times. 'They really didn't sit on their laurels from the first year's success — they took a lot more chances in the second year.' Tim catalogued those chances in a terrific story, noting that the risks were even more palpable given the three-year gap between the series' first and second seasons, a break that happened partly due to the actors' and writers' strikes and partly because it's a hard show to sort out. 'It's a unique show,' star Adam Scott says, 'and in Season 1 we were figuring out what it was as we were doing it. In Season 2, the show was changing and expanding — we were figuring out what it was all over again because it was important to all of us that it not feel the same. Sometimes it takes a while.'
