Rick and Morty season 8 Morty Daddy release time and everything to know

The eagerly awaited Rick and Morty season eight episode nine is on the horizon, but fans are buzzing to find out what time will Morty Daddy premiere.

Adult Swim and E4's cult favourite animated series Rick and Morty bounced back onto screens in June for its eighth outing, delivering a fresh dose of mind-bending and side-splitting escapades every Sunday.

With the anticipation building, here's when you can tune in to see what chaos the most notorious duo on television will unleash next.

Rick and Morty season 8 episode 9 UK release time

Rick and Morty's penultimate season eight episode is scheduled for Sunday, July 27, at 9pm BST (British Summer Time).

The sitcom's return comes after Morty Daddy initially aired in the US last Sunday with UK fans treated to episodes a week later.

As per usual, few details are disclosed prior to a new Rick and Morty episode airing, often leaving fans with more questions than answers.

The official synopsis for Morty Daddy reads: "Summer and Rick dine OUT, broh. Fancy restaurant stuff.

"Morty reconnects with someone from his past."

Series eight premiered on Sunday June 1 and now its 10-episode run is nearing its end, with the grand finale Hot Rick, set to be released next week on Sunday, August 3.

While it's bittersweet to bid farewell to Rick and Morty once more, the future shines bright for Dan Harmon's beloved creation.

Last year, Adult Swim renewed the popular animated series for several more seasons, ensuring that Rick and Morty will continue until at least season 12.

However, it's uncertain when we can expect series nine, given the two-year gap between seasons seven and eight.

Before this, Rick and Morty had been making a yearly return, so fans are hopeful that this pattern will resume.

Rick and Morty is available to watch on E4.
