Watch Rick And Morty Season 7: Preview
Misanthropic genius Rick and his frazzled grandson Morty are back with more outlandishly entertaining adventures through space. And, just as they’ve survived many a bug-eyed alien horde, the series returns having weathered its own storm: the departure of Justin Roiland in 2023 following domestic abuse allegations. Fans can breathe a sigh of relief, then, knowing that it’s been greenlit for another four seasons. Read on below where we explain how to watch Rick and Morty Season 8 online and from anywhere in the world with a VPN.
After Roiland’s exit, the future of this Emmy-winning franchise looked uncertain, given that he'd also voiced the titular twosome from the very beginning. Thankfully, soundalikes Ian Cardoni and Harry Belden took over with nary a raised eyebrow, seamlessly portraying Rick and Morty as of Season 7. Now, they're a part of the Smith family furniture.
And last season’s sci-fi shenanigans were as reliably wild as before. Morty and his sister Summer (Spencer Grammer) became a mutant hybrid in a Total Recall-inspired moment; Rick entered Valhalla to steal the afterlife’s energy source (as you do), which ended with the Pope trapped in a Poké ball; and the Smiths learned the hard way about a planet whose dead citizens turn into spaghetti. Needless to say, having an unhinged scientist in the family caused no small amount of disharmony in everyone’s domestic lives.
Not much is known about the upcoming season. That it’ll deliver cynically witty comedy with bonkers plots that swing for the high-concept sci-fi fences is a given at this point. Judging from the trailers, though, we can expect Space Beth (Sarah Chalke) to make a comeback, while a gaggle of gun-toting cowboys kidnap the entire Morty population from the Citadel of Ricks. Plus, it’s possible that Evil Morty will make another appearance, having last been seen stealing off with the incredibly dangerous Omega device.
Now…ready to get schwifty? Then keep reading for how to watch Rick and Morty Season 8 online with our guide below, and stream every episode no matter where you’re located.

How to watch Rick and Morty online from anywhere
If you're a US citizen on vacation or working overseas, you can still watch Rick and Morty Season 8 online just as you would at home.
While services like Sling TV and Fubo block access from IP addresses outside of the US, there's a handy piece of software called a VPN that can change your IP address to make it look like you're accessing streaming services from any country in the world.
For example, US citizens overseas can subscribe to a VPN, join a US-based server and access their subscription from anywhere in the world, just like they would back home.
Step-by-step of using a VPN to unblock:
1. Choose your ideal VPN and install – our go-to recommendation for unblocking is NordVPN, costing from $3.99 a month with its 2-year plan
2. Connect to a server – for Sling or Hulu, for example, you'll want to connect to a server based in the US
3. Go to the stream you wish to access - for Rick and Morty Season 8, head to the appropriate streaming service (e.g. Sling TV)
