Rick and Morty season 5 release schedule: when does episode 4 air on Adult Swim?

Rick and Morty season 5 continues its run this week with its upcoming fourth episode. That's sure to alleviate any fears fans might have that the Adult Swim series is going on a sudden break or is being split into two.

But when can you watch the new episode and, importantly, where can you watch it? Two good questions and, don't worry, there are no decoys here: the Rick and Morty season 5, episode 4 release date, air time, and any other info you might need can be found below. Pay extra attention, UK fans: you have to wait an extra 24 hours for your dose of universe-hopping, mind-bending fun.

• Rick and Morty season 5, episode 1 ("Mort Dinner Rick Andre") – June 20
