Adult Swim Rick and Morty
Season 4 Episode 5 of Rick and Morty is back on Adult Swim, and after this we might have a long wait until the next episode. The latest Rick and Morty premiered Sunday, December 15 at 11:30 p.m. Eastern (10:30 p.m. Central/11:30 p.m. Pacific) on Adult Swim.
If you don’t have cable, you can watch Rick and Morty Season 4 Episode 5 live or on-demand later on your computer, phone, Roku, Fire TV, Apple TV or other streaming device via one of the following cable-free, live-TV streaming subscription services:

Note that regular Hulu (which is different from Hulu With Live TV) does not have new episodes of Rick and Morty at this time. It only has the first three seasons. If you want to watch new episodes of Rick and Morty on Hulu, you’ll need a subscription to Hulu with Live TV.
AdultSwim.Com Is No Longer a Free Option
You can no longer watch new episodes of Rick and Morty on AdultSwim.com for free. Only the first episode of Season 4 was made available for everyone to watch without a cable subscription. Now you’ll need a cable log-in if you want to watch new episodes on AdultSwim.com, and unfortunately the service doesn’t always work for live streams even that way.
Last week, many people trying to watch Episode 4 on AdultSwim.com got a “Video Is Missing” and the video could not be played.
AdultSwim.com
The same type of error appeared when people tried to watch on the mobile app too, even if they had a cable log-in. If that happens to you again this week, you’ll need to try one of the live stream options above. In addition, you can’t use the Streams page instead of the Videos page to watch the episode either. The Streams page on AdultSwim.com won’t post new episodes until 3 a.m. Eastern on Sundays.
‘Rick and Morty’ Preview
A preview for Rick and Morty Season 4 Episode 5 is below. People are calling this the midseason finale because it’s expected that we’ll have a hiatus before the next new episode airs. Tonight’s episode is called Rattlestar Ricklactica.
Adult Swim also released a new scene on Facebook on Saturday from Episode 5. It seems to take place right before Morty’s bitten.
There will be spoilers for Episode 4 and earlier below.
Episode 3 of Rick and Morty was a heist-focused episode. It looked like the entire heist was put on by Rick to convince Morty to give up his dream of writing and producing a heist script for Netflix. That plus the inclusion of Elon Tusk made Episode 3 a winning episode. And now we may know why Elon Musk changed his Twitter profile to Elon Tusk back in March. (Read more about that in Heavy’s story here.) We also saw the return of Mr. Poopybutthole.
Last week saw two storylines: Morty getting a dragon and a talking cat. Morty’s dragon ended up bonding with Rick instead of Morty, and that was a big problem. Then the cat ended up having a very mysterious past that Jerry didn’t want to know about, but Rick insisted on knowing. It was apparently something awful, and the cat later ended up bonding with the dragon himself. Now we’re left wondering what kind of crazy issues the dragon and the cat might cause in the future.
Five new episodes were scheduled to premiere in 2019 according to the Season 4 trailer. Because we don’t have any descriptions or titles for Episode 5-10, most fans think that we’re going to see a holiday hiatus and the last five episodes will air sometime in 2020.
