'Solar Opposites' Nails 'Rick and Morty' Humor but Is actually Nice?

Hulu's Solar Opposites has something in common with Rick and Morty, streaming all of its eight-episode first season today. The style of animation, the human-meet-aliens comedic through line, the guttural voice of Roiland acting — it is all apparent within moments of the first episode of the series. This is the ideal gift for diehard fans of the Smith family multiverse to accompany five new episodes of Rick and Morty coming to Adult Swim this May. But it is the difference between Solar Opposites and its intergalactic predecessor that makes it a spectacular gem worthy of its own fan-base. Designed by Roiland and former writer Mike McMahan on Rick and Morty, Solar Opposites follows four aliens from Shlorp's distant world. After an asteroid kills their house, adults Korvo (Roiland) and Terry (Thomas Middleditch) flee together with replicants/children Yumyulack (Sean Giambrone) and Jesse (Mary Mack) in search of a new planet for their inhabiting species. With them is a "pupa," an adorable living supercomputer that is destined to develop into a planet-destroying apocalypse that will make room for the latest Shlorp. Korvo and Terry have begun the process of preparing the world for their Shlorpian compatriots after a crash landing in a suburban neighborhood ambiguously located somewhere in middle America. For Korvo, that means working diligently to repair the ship of the group and to gather intelligence on the men. For Terry, that means making friends with his neighbors, enrolling Yumyulack and Jesse in high school, taking the pupa to meet labradoodles at the dog park, and otherwise enjoying the multitude of pleasures that domestic life offers. Terry, Korvo, Jesse, and Yumyulack really like each other. This Odd Couple-framing spreads to the replicants in true sitcom fashion. Jesse loves them immensely, though Yumyulack is annoyed by humans. The conflicting definitions of Earthling actions by the pair lead them into plenty of scrambles — one of which, as Jesse points out, is alarmingly similar to the horror film Green Room by Jeremy Saulnier. Yeah, the one with all the neo-Nazis that wield their weapons. The group's adventures can get pretty dark as Rick and Morty do. Unlike Rick and Morty, these challenges are not especially harmful to their ties. Korvo, Terry, Yumyulack and Jesse seem to really like each other for the most part. Discussions on what to do when the pupa turns deadly are few and far between Taco Tuesdays debates, jet skis, Ansel Elgort, the cultural meaning of performative magic, and Terry's sublime range of t-shirts. These animated buddies operate like the Belcher and Simpson families before them because of their innate fondness for each other. Seeing them hang out is just as exciting as the sublime action scenes of the series — offering family strife like an intimate Rubik's Cube.
