Rick serves the family spaghetti, which Morty accidentally discovers is sourced from a planet where people's bodies turn into spaghetti if they commit suicide, but not if they die any other way. Feeling guilty, Morty reveals the truth at a funeral. After this, the planet's President legalizes suicide, and spaghetti becomes the planet's primary export, with most people channeled into suicide to be sold as spaghetti to meet the demand. Rick's attempts to fix things by sourcing the spaghetti from clones end disastrously, so he has one last terminally ill person commit suicide on a live broadcast and offers his spaghetti to Morty. During the broadcast, he shows everyone the man's entire life causing everyone to vomit at the horrors they are committing, turning everyone off spaghetti. Later, Rick serves the family Salisbury steak, warning that its source is also horrifying. The family laughs this off, content to remain ignorant of its origin.

Development
The season is a part of a long-term deal between show creators Justin Roiland and Dan Harmon and Adult Swim, confirming 70 new episodes would be released over an unspecified amount of seasons. Thirty of those episodes were aired as part of season four, season five and season six, leaving forty episodes remaining.[15]
Casting
See also: Justin Roiland § Allegations of abuse
After charges of felony domestic abuse, which were subsequently dropped due to a lack of evidence,[16][17] Justin Roiland was removed from the show prior to the seventh season.[18] Adult Swim hired two new voice "soundalike" talent for the show's titular characters,[19] announced as unknown actors Ian Cardoni and Harry Belden on the season premiere. Cardoni was cast first due to his Rick impression, which, series writer Scott Marder mentioned, was difficult to cast as "everyone sounded like Macho Man Randy Savage or like a cousin of his. No one sounded exactly like Rick". Belden was cast much later "after exhausting every possible resource".[20][21]
Mr. Poopybutthole, who was previously voiced by Roiland, is voiced by actor Jon Allen. Marder said Allen's role provided room for some of Roiland's other replacements to focus on the main cast.[22] Starting with the episode "Rise of the Numbericons: The Movie", the character Magma-Q, another character that was previously voiced by Roiland, is voiced by rapper Ice-T.
The seventh season premiered on October 15, 2023.[19] The episode titles for season 7 were released through social media on August 31, 2023.[2]
On the review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, season 7 has a 75% score based on 12 reviews, with an average rating of 6.30/10. The site’s critics consensus reads: "Recasting its titular pair with fairly seamless results, the famously unpredictable Rick and Morty settles into a holding pattern that nevertheless still yields plenty of amusing invention."[23] On Metacritic, the season has a score of 73 out of 100, based on reviews from 6 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[24]
Reviewing the first two episodes, Alan Sepinwall of Rolling Stone noted that the characters who had new voice actors sounded virtually indistinguishable from their appearances in previous seasons.[25] Jake Kleinman for Inverse agreed, finding the voice swap did not impact the show, but did describe the writing and trajectory of the series as disappointing.[26] Alison Foreman, writing for IndieWire, was disappointed that the creatives chose to "maintain the status quo" rather than taking the show in a new direction even after Roiland's removal from the series.[27]
