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!” While it won’t be available next-day on streaming, a September 1 date for both Hulu and Max has already been confirmed, which without breaks should mean a five-week wait from the season finale.
