“Rick and Morty is back for Season Eight! Life has purpose once more!” proclaims Adult Swim’s official overview of the upcoming season. “Infinite possibilities await! Anticipate escapades featuring Summer, Jerry, Beth, and the other Beth. Might Butter Bot receive a new assignment? Regardless of what unfolds, Rick and Morty cannot be subdued for too long. Attempts have been made!”
Indeed, Rick and Morty has weathered various controversies as a series, sustaining a loyal audience of followers despite shifts in creativity in earlier seasons.
In its own eccentric manner, Rick and Morty truly embodies decades of cultural milestones, drawing inspiration from some of the most intricate sci-fi narratives while presenting a distinctively cynical view on the traditional theme of a boy and his elderly scientist friend.
With the premiere of Rick and Morty season eight approaching on May 25, fans will soon discover the strange alternate realities of Rick and the multitude of alien realms, undoubtedly accompanied by plenty of absurd (and sarcastic) humor.
