It'll be bundled with the 10th episode to form a longer finale. It’ll still be behind other classic animated adult comedies in its lane: Futurama ran for seven seasons with 140 episodes, while The Simpsons has aired 637 episodes over the course of its 29-year run. Rick and Morty season 5, episode 9 release date is technically on September 5 at 11pm Eastern on Adult Swim.

Since the third season ended in October, the show’s creators, Roiland and Dan Harmon have noted that negotiations for the next season had “gotten complicated.” Now we know why: 70 episodes is an enormous, unprecedented renewal order, the equivalent of seven more seasons of the show. For fans of the show, it’s a relief knowing that there’ll be more to come.
