'Rick and Morty' Season 8 streaming: How to watch, episode schedule and more
The Emmy-winning animated series Rick and Morty is back for its eighth season. The irreverent series about a mad scientist and his grandson's adventures across the universe premiered on Adult Swim on Sunday, May 25 at 11 p.m. ET with the first of 10 new episodes that are dropping weekly through July 27. The series, which stars Ian Cardoni, Harry Belden, Sarah Chalke, Chris Parnell, and Spencer Grammer will also be airing in over 170 countries, so whether you're in the U.S. or abroad, here's everything you need to know about how to watch Rick and Morty Season 8, including where to stream it and how to watch it with the help of a VPN if you don't have cable.
Season 8 of Rick and Morty premiered on Sunday, May 25. The series won't land on streaming in the U.S. until after the entire season wraps up — so if you're used to watching Rick and Morty on HBO Max, heads up that you'll have to wait until Sept. 1 to catch Season 8.
Rick and Morty airs on Adult Swim. After an entire season is finished airing, it will eventually stream on HBO Max. It is however already available to stream on HBO Max in Australia...
There are several ways you can watch Rick and Morty without cable. Adult Swim is available on several platforms, including DirecTV, Fubo, Hulu + Live TV and YouTube TV. Warner Bros. Discovery has also confirmed that episodes will be available to stream in the U.S. on Max, but not until Sept. 1.
While the new season of Rick and Mortys won't be immediately available on Max (you'll have to wait until it arrives on Sept. 1), you can catch the past seven seasons on demand on the platform now.
If you don't have cable but still want to stream Season 8 of Rick and Morty as new episodes are released, all it takes is a VPN. By using a VPN, you can access new episodes of Rick and Morty when they air in other countries and stream them on demand after they premiere. Just note that the premiere dates may vary. For example, it's scheduled to debut June 1 in the U.K. on Channel 4's My4, and May 26 on the Australian version of HBO Max (though you'll still need your US HBO subscription to watch it). Just set your VPN location to the U.K. or Australia, respectively.
A VPN (virtual private network) helps protect your data, can mask your IP address and is perhaps most popular for being especially useful in the age of streaming. Whether you're looking to watch Friends on Netflix (which left the U.S. version of the streamer back in 2019) or tune in to overseas broadcasts, a VPN can help you out. Looking to try a VPN for the first time? This guide breaks down the best VPN options for every kind of user.

Cynthia Nixon Confirms That Each 'Sex and the City' Storyline Was Based on True Events
Every item on this page was chosen by an ELLE editor. We may earn commission on some of the items you choose to buy. If you've ever wondered how Sex and the City has managed to stay relevant for 27 years since it first premiered, you don't have to look far. Speaking to ELLE UK, Cynthia Nixon (who plays Miranda Hobbes), attributes the show's longstanding resonance with the fact that each and every one of its storylines is drawn from real-life events. 'Our writers have always based our plot lines on things that have actually happened to them or happened to someone that they directly know, so they can quiz them about it,' Nixon says. 'So these crazy, outrageous things, particularly back in the day [during Sex and the City], that happened to these characters were always rooted in truth, and an audience can smell that a mile away.' Sex and the City, which was based on Candace Bushnell's New York Observer column of the same name, premiered in 1998 and spawned six seasons, two feature films, and a sequel series, And Just Like That..., which is currently airing weekly on Max. The show caused widespread discourse among fans of the original series, with some claiming it tarnishes SATC's lasting legacy. Miranda, in particular, was criticized for becoming out-of-touch and contradicting her original character. Nixon, however, says that she doesn't read reviews of the show. As for potential seasons of And Just Like That... (that have yet to be greenlit by HBO), Nixon is clear that as long as the series creator Michael Patrick King will keep on writing Miranda's story, she'll be there. 'I'd love a season 4 and I'd love a season 5,' she says. 'I love this world and it's so lovely to be a part of it. I mean, who gets to do this? To play a character for 30 years? It's really, really special.' Watch And Just Like That... on Max

When does Season 3 of 'The Gilded Age' come out? Date, cast, where to watch
Step back into the Gilded Age, "a period of immense economic and social change," with Season 3 of HBO's lavish period drama. The opulent series, created by "Downton Abbey's" Julian Fellowes, follows high society and the battle between "old money" and "new money" in 1800s New York. In the upcoming season, the old guard is weakened following the Opera War and the Russells "stand poised to take their place at the head of society," according to the season synopsis. "Bertha sets her sights on a prize that would elevate the family to unimaginable heights while George risks everything on a gambit that could revolutionize the railroad industry — if it doesn't ruin him first," the synopsis says, adding, "across the street, the Brook household is thrown into chaos as Agnes refuses to accept Ada's new position as lady of the house." "As all of New York hastens toward the future, their ambition may come at the cost of what they truly hold dear," it concludes.
