I have never been shy about how much I love Solar Opposites. Season 5 is no exception to that rule. It is another installment in the Opposites families' mission to terraform Earth but more importantly to have wacky sci-fi adventures on Earth with the Pupa. I was lucky enough to chat with the cast and producers of the show about this season and what makes them laugh still after so much time in comedy.

This season of Solar Opposites continues to build on the stories and world of the Opposites after the wedding of Terry and Korvo in the Valentine's Day Special. The show has embraced their relationship a lot more in the later seasons but this one really gives a few spotlight episodes on it that really highlights why I keep coming back to my favorite family of aliens on Hulu. Dan Stevens and Thomas Middleditch play off one another very well as the two parents of the family unit. Terry also has some of the best shirts of the series in this season as well.

Solar Opposites is a show that every single television fan should watch because of how well they balance their stories while having two nearly full other shows going on inside their own. The Wall storyline has been going on for years with full eras of storytelling that we get a refresher on in this season in a very fun way. But The Wall gets a soft reboot into The Backyard this year with a fresh story with Clancy Brown at the helm. It's something you do not want to miss because it's such a great bit of storytelling that lampoons what it could have been while still being an original storyline going on alongside Opposites B plots.

But there is the Green Lanterns Silver Cops storyline going on at the same time as well which gets it's own incredible opening and theme song. There are Starship Trooper elements this season while dealing with the idea that the military may also be the baddies. It's a very funny and surprisingly action-packed storyline this season. There is also a few moments I felt myself feeling a bit sad for the characters which I was not expecting when this absolutely bonkers storyline began.

Solar Opposites cannot be contained to genre. 40 more seasons of Solar.
