Hulu Renews SOLAR OPPOSITES, CROSSING SWORDS

Hulu has ordered additional seasons of SOLAR OPPOSITES and CROSSING SWORDS, the streaming platform announced.

SOLAR OPPOSITES, which was originally picked up for a two-season order, will also be returning for a 12-episode third season. According to Hulu, the series debuted as Hulu’s most-watched original comedy premiere to date.

The series, from Justin Roiland and Mike McMahan, “centers around a team of four aliens who escape their exploding home world only to crash land into a move-in ready home in suburban America. They are evenly split on whether Earth is awful or awesome. Korvo (Justin Roiland) and Yumyulack (Sean Giambrone) only see the pollution, crass consumerism, and human frailty while Terry (Thomas Middleditch) and Jesse (Mary Mack) love humans and all their TV, junk food and fun stuff. Their mission: protect the Pupa, a living super computer that will one day evolve into its true form, consume them and terraform the Earth.”

CROSSING SWORDS’ second season order is for ten episodes; its first season dropped on Friday, June 12. The series, from Tom Root and John Harvatine IV, follows Patrick, “a good hearted peasant who lands a coveted squire position at the royal castle. However, his dream job quickly turns into a nightmare when he learns his beloved kingdom is run by a hornet’s nest of horny monarchs, crooks and charlatans. Even worse, Patrick’s valor made him the black sheep in his family, and now his criminal siblings have returned to make his life hell. War, murder, full frontal nudity—who knew brightly colored peg people led such exciting lives?”

The series stars Nicholas Hoult, Adam Ray, Tara Strong, Tony Hale, Luke Evans, Seth Green, Alanna Ubach, Adam Pally, Yvette Nicole Brown, Maya Erskine, Breckin Meyer, and Wendi McLendon-Covey.
