Rick and Morty season 5 episode 9 will be on its way, though fans will be left waiting longer than expected for its special one-hour finale. With episodes in this series airing each week, the season 5 finale will buck that trend by releasing nearly a full month following episode 8.
When is the Rick and Morty season 5 episode 9 release date and time?
The Rick and Morty season 5 finale will air on Sunday, September 5, at 11 PM PT and ET. With episode 8 airing on August 8, this means that nearly an entire month will have passed between the two episodes.
News that there would be a month-long break for the show was confirmed with the release of a clip from the finale, which sees Rick spinning the “Wheel of Things Better Than Morty” after Morty tells Rick to replace him. The wheel lands on ‘Two Crows,’ with other options including Kyle 2.0 — seemingly a reference to the ‘Teenyverse‘ creator scientist from season 2 — and ‘Jerry (Spin Again).’

The voiceover informs viewers that the episode will explore a Rick without Morty, suggesting that the pair will split in the hour-long finale. It remains to be seen if Rick and Morty will remain estranged by the episode’s conclusion, or if they will once again team up and embark on their space-traveling adventures. However, with the episode being an hour-long, fans will inevitably be expecting something big from this finale.

Rick and Morty season 5 has been underwhelming for the most part, with it receiving less favorable reviews and community feedback than previous seasons of the show. But with the Adult Swim show having hit some spectacular highs during its run, there’s every chance that its finale will be one of its better episodes.
