The first season of President Curtis is winding down, meaning the Rick and Morty universe will head back to the shelf soon enough. The two shows have headlined Adult Swim’s summer lineup, giving adult animation fans something to cling onto after other series met swift ends.
If you want to stay up to date on the whacky Rick and Morty spinoff, here is everything you need to know before President Curtis Season 1 Episode 8 drops:
When does President Curtis Season 1 Episode 8 come out?
President Curtis Season 1 Episode 8 will premiere on Adult Swim at 11:30 p.m. ET on Sunday, September 13. The episode, which is titled Knox, will have a runtime around 22 minutes. It will be available to stream on HBO Max on Monday, September 14.
As was the case with the past eight seasons of Rick and Morty, President Curtis Season 1 will be 10 episodes long. It won’t be a miniseries, either, since Adult Swim has already renewed the show for Season 2.
(Warning: Spoilers for President Curtis Season 1 Episode 7 and Rick and Morty Season 9 ahead.)
Who will show up this episode?
President Curtis has quickly established its core cast of characters, introducing plenty of fresh faces to surround Curtis himself. As for the titular character, he has had the same voice actor since debuting in Rick and Morty Season 2. And while the supporting cast has been largely stuck in the background, there are some recognizable voices rounding out the group. Here is a look at the recurring voice cast, as well as who they are playing:
- Keith David as President Andre Curtis
- Stephanie Beatriz as Roe Banks
- Jim Banksas Special Agent Francis O’Doyle
- Alanna Ubach as Janice
- David Cross as Finch
- Dan Bakkedahl as Alan Chomps
Ian Cardoni and Harry Belden made cameos as Rick and Morty, respectively, in the pilot. They could show up again later this season, but they probably won’t intrude too much. Kristen Schaal, Adam Pally, John Michael Higgins, Billy Zane, Gillian Jacobs, Janeane Garofalo, Jane Lynch, Timothy Simons, Sam Richardson and Mikey Day are among the celebrities who have popped up so far.
What to expect in President Curtis Season 1 Episode 8
Based on the early preview for Episode 8, somebody steals all the gold from Fort Knox. Authorities call Curtis and tell him that they managed to catch one suspect – a female leprechaun named Orla O’Doyle. Orla is, as the name would suggest, Special Agent O’Doyle’s mother. After getting some insight into Banks’ backstory in Episode 7, Episode 8 seems to be giving O’Doyle that same treatment. The episode’s synopsis is as follows:
“A robbery at Fort Knox puts Curtis and the FBI on a manhunt for the culprit, forcing O’Doyle to confront figures from his past to get to the bottom of it.”
