SOLAR OPPOSITES CONFIRMED FOR SEASON 6

In Season 5, the team of four aliens is back: Korvo (Dan Stevens), Yumyulack (Sean Giambrone), Terry (Thomas Middleitch), and Jesse (Mary Mack). The team is split on whether Earth is awful or awesome, Terry and Jesse love TV, junk food, and fun stuff. However, Korvo and Yumyulack only see the pollution, crass consumerism, and human frailty.

During Season 5, with the alien mission partners Terry and Korvo now married, the team is focused on family values. It looks like it will be another fun and irreverent season of alien mayhem.

Solar Opposites is an incredibly underrated show, and it’s great to see that the adventures of the irreverent, unlikely team of aliens will continue. Hopefully, this means there will be more subplots involving The Wall and The Silver Cops.
