Rick and Morty Season 7 Trailer; Fox's Krapopolis Debuts Well

Season 7 of Rick and Morty premieres Sunday, Oct. 15 at 11:00 p.m. ET/PT on Adult Swim and the trailer is released. Rick and Morty is the hit adult animated series that follows a sociopathic genius scientist who drags his inherently timid grandson on insanely dangerous adventures across the universe. A global phenomenon, the seventh season of Rick and Morty will debut in over 134 countries in 38 languages. In the U.S., new episodes will be available for purchase from digital retailers the day after they premiere on Adult Swim. The new season will also be available to stream in 2024.

Fox's all-new animated series, Krapopolis, premiered well after an NFL lead-in delivering a 1.2 Live + Same Day rating among Adults 18-49 and 3.6 million Total Viewers and is television's most-watched animation series to debut over the past decade. Dan Harmon's most-watched animated series telecast ever. The #1 entertainment telecast since the post-Super Bowl Next Level Chef premiere (2/12/23, excluding award ceremonies). The #1 original comedy telecast of 2023 (beating the debut of the Night Court re-boot, 1/17/23). The #1 entertainment program among Adults 18-49 for the week of September 18, marking the first time in nearly 25 years an animation series debut was the week's highest-rated entertainment program (since Family Guy's series debut, 1/31/99; excluding summer premieres).

Set in mythical Ancient Greece, the series centers on a flawed family of humans, gods and monsters that tries to run one of the world's first cities without killing each other. Tyrannis, the mortal son of a goddess, is the benevolent king of Krapopolis and is trying to survive in a city that lives up to its name. Deliria is Tyrannis' mother, goddess of self-destruction and questionable choices. Within her extended Olympian family -- forged in patricide and infidelity -- she's known as the trashy one. Shlub, Tyrannis' father, is oversexed and underemployed and claims to be an artist and has literally never paid for anything, in any sense of the word, for his entire life. Stupendous is Tyrannis' half-sister, daughter of Deliria and a cyclops. Hippocampus is Tyrannis' half-brother, the offspring of Shlub and a mermaid, and, obviously, a hot mess, biologically speaking.
