About the show

Solar Opposites is an American adult animated sitcom created by Justin Roiland and Mike McMahan for Hulu. The series follows a family of aliens consisting of Korvo, Terry, Yumyulack, and Jesse, who escape their doomed homeworld and arrive on Earth with a mission to protect their infant Pupa, which will eventually evolve to terraform the planet and destroy humanity. While Korvo and Yumyulack dislike humans and their culture, Terry and Jesse quickly adapt to living on Earth. The series also features a "show-within-a-show" subplot titled "The Wall", which follows a society of humans that have been shrunk down by Yumyulack and kept inside a large terrarium built into his bedroom wall.

The voice cast consists of Justin Roiland as Korvo, Thomas Middleditch as Terry, Sean Giambrone as Yumyulack, and Mary Mack as Jesse. After Roiland was removed from the series in early 2023, Dan Stevens replaced him as Korvo starting with the fourth season. Recurring guest stars include: Carlos Alazraqui, Clancy Brown, Sterling K. Brown, Kieran Culkin, Andy Daly, Sutton Foster, Tiffany Haddish, Christina Hendricks, Alfred Molina, Charlotte Nicdao, Nolan North, Rob Schrab, and Kari Wahlgren.

The series was originally developed for Fox, but was later moved to Hulu in 2018 and given a two-season order. It premiered on May 8, 2020, and concluded on October 13, 2025, after six seasons consisting of 63 episodes. Four holiday specials were also released, starting with the second season. Since its debut, the series received positive critical reviews and became one of Hulu's most-watched comedies.
