If you're a Rick & Morty fan you'll love this its like a interdimensional cable side series But they could do a series on the Wall alone

Solar Opposites is the spiritual continuation of Rick and Morty's cultural footprint and its more streamlined style of storytelling makes this show a nice juxtaposition to Roiland's Adult Swim smash hit. Though some of the storytelling and character archetypes may be too similar to Rick and Morty's cast, rest assured Solar Opposites' cast gives a more alien perspective to Earth's very human culture.

This is a family sitcom rather than an existential black comedy which Rick and Morty's managed to pull off so well: but these aliens still possess it's predecessor's irreverent humour and energy all the same. Hopefully these two shows will crossover in the not-too distant future and we'll see how Rick and Korvo are two analogies for one another whilst having radically different ideas over the same stuff relevant to them.

This is a nice beginning to something new and fresh, and this may be Justin Roiland's chance to broaden his creative horizons even further.

Its like Rick and Morty choose a channel on interdimensional cable and now we're watching a full season of whatever the freak this is. It crude, weird, disgusting humor and barely make since. I like it.

Other reviews I've read have been saying the wall story is so much more interesting and better than the actual show. I'll admit the wall story is very interesting and has a great concept. But I watch Solar Opposites because of the entire show. It's fun, crazy, over the top, and just great. I wouldn't say this show is underrated, but it isn't given enough credit for the great show it is. Keep watching, because it's worth it.

Just as good as Rick and morty, lots going on the wall is awesome and still very early in the making.

Yes the wall parts are the best bits but in honesty it is all pretty dam good. The fans aren't as unbearable as the constantly butthurt Rick & Morty fans either which is a good thing. Also you don't have to wait 3 years between seasons. My only minor complaint with it is Korvo sounds too much like Rick but I can live with that.

This really scratches my Rick & Morty itch when I've run out of R&M episodes. It's different enough to be fresh, but just as funny and just as smart.

Just an average show that would not have much following or the inflated rating had the creator not also become famous for creating Rick and Morty.

The main story is more or less an inter-dimensional cable arc, sadly lacking anyone named Michael, that mostly falls flat. It feels like Rick and Morty with extra steps. The real gem of this show is the The Wall and the characters within. It's no surprise the Wall episode is the highest crowd rated in the season.

When Justin Roiland's new cartoon, Solar Opposites was announced, I was pretty excited, I mean, I adore watching Rick and Morty so go figure. I watched the first episode of Solar Opposites and it was pretty hilarious as hell, I like all the main characters especially Terry, he's pretty funny. The animation of this show is the same as Rick and Morty and so is the writing of the show and it made me smile. Solar Opposites is a real adult animated gem on Hulu and I'm also glad that the continuation of Rick and Morty Season 4 started last Sunday. I personally give Solar Opposites a 9.5/10

Season 4 of Solar Opposites is a major letdown, receiving a dismal 3 out of 10. The writing has taken a distressing nosedive, eroding the show's once-engaging narrative. The absence of Roiland's voice for Korvo is jarring, throwing off the character dynamics and leaving fans disconnected. The questionable choice to sideline Roiland appears to be a disastrous misstep, potentially signaling an impending downfall for the series. This decision raises valid concerns about its potential impact on the beloved show Rick and Morty, leaving fans anxious about its future. The future of Solar Opposites hangs in the balance, its once-promising trajectory now uncertain and unsettling.

How this show can have a single bad review is beyond me. Such story telling, with great character development. Everyone feels like they could have a side story. Definitely has a Rick and Morty feel, as it's from the same actors and writers. That's a good thing! Enjoy!

The show and its main story is alright, nothing more. But the "wall" is great. My first thought when they showed a scene from inside it was "damn, I wish they'd make a whole episode about this". And lo and behold when I got to episode 7 it was just that, and how good was it? It was freaking awesome! For sure the best episode of season 1. I hope they keep spinning on the wall story in season 2.

The first few seasons of *Solar Opposites*, led by Justin Roiland, delivered a quirky, fast-paced, and hilarious sci-fi sitcom about an alien family adjusting to life on Earth. It thrived on absurd humor, unique world-building, and off-the-wall social commentary, particularly through its subplots like "The Wall," which often rivaled the main storyline in creativity. However, since Roiland's departure, the show has taken a noticeable turn for the worse.

Without Roiland's distinct voice acting and creative influence, the series feels like a hollow shell of its former self. The chaotic energy that once defined *Solar Opposites* now seems forced, with the writing leaning heavily on recycled jokes, predictable gags, and uninspired plotlines. The once-interesting characters have become caricatures, losing the nuance that initially made them endearing and funny.

Most disappointing is how "The Wall" subplot, a fan favorite, has lost its intrigue. What once stood as an interesting metaphor for class and social dynamics is now reduced to over-the-top, tedious drama. It feels like the writers are trying too hard to replicate past successes without understanding what made them work.

Visually, the show remains polished, but the lack of substance and the absence of Roiland's signature style create an unshakable feeling of something missing. Unfortunately, without its original spark, *Solar Opposites* struggles to justify its continued existence. It has gone from a brilliant oddball gem to a frustrating, forgettable experience.

**Rating: 1/5 Stars** - The post-Roiland era has drained the life from this once-promising series, leaving it as a mere shadow of its former self.

I loved the first 3 seasons of this show. It was funny, clever and random. The dynamics between characters worked very well. I enjoy Justin Roilands style of absurd comedy and have been a fan of his characters. However, I understand the decision to let him go and don't blame the show for doing it. However, the complete rejection of his style ruins elements of the show I really enjoyed. Korvo simply doesn't seem like the same character anymore, which in effect has shifted terrys role and character. I only made it 5 episodes into season 4 before I just lost interest in the show.

It feels like they tried to hard to be witty with it without considering how the audience would respond to it. It is unfortunate that people are review bombing this show, but don't look past the fact that many don't like how this was approached. I also watch Rick and Morty, I think the Rick replacement has done a fantastic job so far, the Morty replacement needs some work, but it at least doesn't change the character and I believe it will improve. I really wish Solar Opposites would have taken this approach.

Show used to be a 10/10 for me but season 4 made me change it. I'm so upset they changed the voice actor for korvo. I didn't realize how important his character was till they changed the voice actor. The show is NOT the same. They would have been better off making a new character or something. Like why not find someone who sounds similar at least. The British accent completely takes away from the show. Like every time he's on screen I cringe when he talks. I REALLY don't understand the reasoning behind choosing the British accent. It completely changes the vibe of his character. He doesn't sound as serious and deadpan anymore. Maybe to a British person there isn't as much of a difference?? Idk. I just feel like the voice they chose for him makes him have a completely different personality. Like literally every aspect of this show is tainted with the fact they changed the voice. I can't even enjoy the wall side story. Ugh I don't think I've ever been so disappointed in a new season for a show.

BUT seasons 1-3 are totally worth watching, don't let my review turn you away completely from this show. Those seasons are a solid 10/10 for sure. I love those seasons!

Love this show! It's funny, well voice acted and it doesn't take itself too seriously like R&M does. I've got a theory that the whole show is actually a show Rick and Morty watch on interdimensional cable lol

This is not Rick and Morty. It will never be Rick and Morty. Stop making comparisons and enjoy the show for what it is. Some things can just exist to be low stakes and light-hearted. They don't need to have grand story arcs and all of that. I do think the show could be better though. The wall episode was by far the best and it I think the story of the main characters can still be comedic but have that quality. Also thier pet's adventures are enjoyable and I don't think it matters if it doesn't connect to the rest of the story. Just have fun watching the show. Not everything is a competition

Well that's it nicely done new sensations, this really brings me to that spot were you say yeah spin me another episode.

It really good.

This show was amazing seasons 1-3. Lots of interesting and funny stories. And an amazing sub-story in the form of "The Wall". Season 4 is decent at best and season 5 I could not even watch. Do yourselves a favor and watch up until season 3 and leave it to die. Much like Rick and Morty the voice change and overall direction of the show changed for the worse once one of the creators was ousted. I'm not defending or condoning any ones alleged or true actions, but it is plain to see once Justin was kicked out, the show ceased to be what it once was and became an unbearable eye and ear sore. So very disappointed.

A very funny, entertaining, and often consistent cartoon- Solar Opposites more than earns its stance as another adult cartoon from the creator of Rick and Morty, and is certainly worth a watch and a laugh. The show is very well animated, and its cast of characters are very enjoyable to watch. It contains familiar story elements from the likes of other adult cartoons (such as Rick and Morty) but it's characters are really what differentiate the show and make it something very unique and special. My favorite character throughout is a small little yellow glob named Pupa, who is equally adorable, and possible the most unique little element to brace the show throughout. The show is easily watchable, and besides maybe the very first episode, it's very consistent, which is both surprising and one of the reasons why it is so easily enjoyable. Its voice performances are very well done, my favorite of which being Sean Giambrone as Yumyulack who I feel fits his character a lot more than I had anticipated. The show does seem to struggle with becoming something totally original in terms of plot and story from time to time, with a few episodes themes and devices feeling all to familiar to other cartoons like it. In the end however, Solar Opposites is a very enjoyable cartoon romp that is very consistent and easily watchable. It may feel a bit too familiar at times, but for the most part, it's a very unique and solidly entertaining cartoon that is more than worth your time. My Rating: 9.5/10

If you like R&M you'll like this. Doesn't quite reach the depth that R&M does, but it's an enjoyable show nonetheless. Also there is a "B" plot in every episode thats simply amazing.

True to form. Script so good. Great casting. Intellingent and fun.

Not comparing to R&M, but it's obvious why people do. I think it does stand on it's own, it's just not a standout. Definitely does not deserve an 8. A high 6 or low 7 for sure. A better comparison is the Simpsons, which is waaayyy better. I'd say it lands in the lower tier of animated family sit-coms. At times it feels like they signed a deal with Hulu and made the episodes reluctantly like they had to. Still, it's watchable and there is a chuckle or two per episode. The wall is more interesting and has more potential than the main storyline.

This was a pretty entertaining show, and having Rick as a space alien really made this show hilarious.

I'm afraid that is ruined, I couldn't even get through the 1st episode of season 4, that new british voice was just too terrible. I kept thinking, oh this must be some sort of plot joke that will change back shortly, but then I looked it up and saw what was actually going on. What were you thinking?? You could of at least gotten a non-accented comedian to play the role.

The Wall subplot could have been it's own show, a sort of "Silo" meets "Honey I shrank the Kids" show. Consider doing that!
