Solar Opposites is a new animated comedy sitcom that's now exclusively streaming on Hulu. It's about a family of aliens who take refuge in middle America. Justin Roiland and Mike McMahan, best known for their work on Rick and Morty, created Solar Opposites and the former also stars.
Roiland plays Korvo, Thomas Middleditch plays Terry, Sean Giambrone plays Yumyulak, and Mary Mack plays Jesse. That rounds out the aforementioned family of aliens but the voice cast also includes Carlos Ealazaqui, Alfred Molina, Tiffany Haddish, Christina Hendricks, Andy Daly, and Alan Tudyk.
All eight episodes of the first season have been available to stream on Hulu since May 8th. That's less than a week ago. However, the new animated series has already become the top comedy ever released on the streaming service. What's more, it's said that Solar Opposites is the second most-watched series of the week — despite having only been around for five of the seven days.
According to Hulu (via Deadline), 40% of viewers who started watching Solar Opposites ended up binging the entire season within forty-eight hours. Similarly, it's said that adult animation, in general, is quite popular on the platform as 40% of Hulu subscribers watch an adult animated series per month.
A family of aliens from a better world must take refuge in middle America; they disagree on whether Earth is awful or awesome.
