‘President Curtis’ Episode 6 Is Almost Here, Here’s When ‘Hollow’ Premieres and How to Watch It

‘President Curtis’ has kept its release rhythm steady since debuting on Adult Swim, and the show’s sixth outing is now on the horizon. The ‘Rick and Morty’ spinoff follows Commander in Chief Andre Curtis and his staff through the kind of interdimensional and paranormal messes that Rick Sanchez usually can’t be bothered with, and episode six continues that pattern under the title ‘Hollow.’

Viewers tracking the season’s weekly rollout have a clear picture of when the new installment lands, what time it airs, and which platforms carry it. Here is everything currently confirmed about the release of ‘President Curtis’ episode 6.

When ‘President Curtis’ Episode 6 Premieres

Episode 6 of ‘President Curtis,’ titled ‘Hollow,’ is set to release on August 30, 2026. That date is confirmed directly on the episode’s own listing page, which credits Dan Harmon as executive producer and places the show squarely in the adventure, comedy, sci-fi and animation categories on Adult Swim. A separate episode guide tracking the show’s international rollout lists the same date for the sixth chapter, placing it one week after episode five, titled ‘David,’ which released on August 23, 2026, and one week ahead of episode seven, titled ‘Ghosts,’ which is scheduled for September 6, 2026.

That weekly cadence has held since the series began. ‘President Curtis’ premiered on Adult Swim on July 26, 2026 at 11:30pm EST, with each episode added to HBO Max the day after it airs, and the first season is set to wrap on September 27, 2026. Episode 6 falls in the back half of that ten episode run, with ‘Timber’ currently listed as the season finale.

What Time ‘Hollow’ Airs on Adult Swim

‘President Curtis’ has maintained a consistent broadcast slot since its debut, airing new episodes at 11:30pm Eastern on Adult Swim as part of the network’s late night animation block. Fans expecting episode 6 should plan for that same time window, since nothing in the show’s release pattern suggests a shift for ‘Hollow.’ The prior five episodes, ‘Pilot,’ ‘Triangle,’ ‘Ex,’ ‘Purchase’ and ‘David,’ all followed that Sunday night broadcast rhythm before making their way to streaming.

Each episode title in the season has been kept to a single word, a stylistic choice the show has stuck with from its first outing onward. ‘Hollow’ continues that trend, and its brevity has left plot details relatively scarce ahead of release, unlike earlier episodes such as ‘Triangle,’ which saw Curtis, Banks and O’Doyle investigating a secret monster prison tied to a Loch Ness discovery washed ashore near the Bermuda Triangle.

Where to Watch ‘President Curtis’ Season 1

For viewers without access to Adult Swim’s linear broadcast, the streaming window is short but dependable. Every episode of the series lands on HBO Max the day after its television premiere, meaning episode 6 should be available to stream there on August 31, 2026. That same pattern has applied to every episode since the ‘Pilot’ aired in late July.

Beyond HBO Max and Adult Swim’s own broadcast and app, episodes of the show are also available to purchase digitally through outlets including Amazon Video, the Apple TV Store and Fandango at Home for viewers who prefer to buy rather than stream. Rotten Tomatoes similarly lists HBO Max as the primary subscription option for the series, alongside digital purchase through Fandango.

International viewers face a more limited setup, since ‘President Curtis’ has not received a formal international broadcast partner in the way the flagship ‘Rick and Morty’ series has, and those outside the US are generally directed toward using a VPN connected to a US server to access HBO Max content legally within their existing subscriptions.

The Bigger Picture for ‘President Curtis’ Season 1

‘Hollow’ arrives at a moment when the show’s future is already secured. Adult Swim announced on July 24, 2026 that ‘President Curtis’ had been renewed for a second season, with Keith David confirming the news himself during the show’s panel at San Diego Comic Con. That renewal came before the first season had even finished airing, a vote of confidence from the network even as the show’s early audience numbers remain modest.

The series was first greenlit back in July 2025, when Adult Swim surprised fans by bringing David onstage during the flagship ‘Rick and Morty’ panel to reveal the spinoff. Ahead of the show’s eventual launch, David gave ScreenRant some insight into what fans could expect, telling the outlet that Curtis “is still the same President that left you” on the mainline series, signaling that the spinoff would keep the character’s established tone intact rather than reinvent him. That continuity has largely held through the season’s first five episodes, which have leaned on Curtis navigating political and supernatural crises with the same blustery confidence the character built up across his appearances in ‘Rick and Morty.’

Adult Swim president Michael Ouweleen backed the character’s standalone potential when the series was first ordered, saying the network would have greenlit the show even without its ties to ‘Rick and Morty’ because Andre Curtis is simply that strong a character on his own. Whether ‘Hollow’ pushes the show’s early reception higher remains to be seen, since the series has so far carried a modest audience score sitting in the mid range on aggregator sites tracking its first several outings.

With five episodes already down and ‘Hollow’ rounding out the season’s midpoint, ‘President Curtis’ still has four more installments to go before its first season closes out in late September. What kind of crisis do you think Curtis, Banks and O’Doyle are walking into this time, and does the title ‘Hollow’ hint at something buried, something ghostly, or something else entirely?
