Why is Rick and Morty Season 7 Episode 11 not airing tonight?

In Rick and Morty Season 7 Episode 10, the duo embarked on a thrilling journey into “The Hole” and left viewers hanging with a cliffhanger in the post-credits scene. Now fans are eagerly waiting for Episode 11. Despite receiving mixed reviews, Episode 5 has been praised as a standout moment in the season.

Additionally, the creative team of the popular adult animated series is conscious of the fact that they are still adjusting to changes, such as the departure of co-creator and voice actor Justin Roiland, and the addition of two new voice actors for Rick and Morty. As for the absence of Season 7 Episode 11 tonight, it may leave fans eagerly anticipating what interdimensional chaos lies ahead.

Why isn’t Rick and Morty Season 7 Episode 11 on tonight?

Bad news, folks – Rick and Morty Season 7 Episode 11 isn’t on tonight because it doesn’t exist. 

Season 1 consisted of 11 episodes, but subsequent installments of Rick and Morty have been 10 episodes long, including the latest chapter. However, fans can rest assured that the series is far from over. In fact, it has been approved for at least 10 seasons, with three more to come - and possibly even more if Adult Swim decides to order additional episodes in the future.

The Season 7 blurb of "Rick and Morty" teases, "100 years! Or at least until season 10!" Additionally, creator Dan Harmon has confirmed that writing for Season 8 is complete, hinting at new episodes arriving in late 2024 or early 2025.

Last month, Harmon hinted at big things to come in the next installment during an interview with The Verge. He shared that Season 7 is just one more step along the way, and with Season 8 already written, the anticipation is even higher. Harmon expressed that Season 8 will feel like a return to form and a triumphant comeback, with the hope that Season 9 will surpass it. He emphasized that the gradual process has been about regaining momentum and getting back on track.

Editor's P/S

As a die-hard fan of Rick and Morty, I was eagerly anticipating the release of Season 7 Episode 11. The post-credits scene in Episode 10 left me hanging on the edge of my seat, and I couldn't wait to see what would happen next. However, I was disappointed to learn that Episode 11 is not airing tonight and that Season 7 only consists of 10 episodes.

Despite this setback, I am still excited about the future of Rick and Morty. The creative team is working hard to adjust to the changes that have occurred, and I am confident that they will continue to produce high-quality episodes. I am particularly looking forward to Season 8, which is already in the works and promises to be a return to form for the series. In the meantime, I will be rewatching my favorite episodes of Rick and Morty and eagerly awaiting the release of Season 8.
