Solar Opposites season 5 news is starting to arrive since the fourth season hit Hulu and left fans wondering what could happen next after the surprise ending. Lampooning the classic sitcom format, the animated hit follows a family of aliens who must seek refuge in middle America and find that they clash with Earth culture. Proving to be a success from the outset, the zany cartoon humor drew in fans of shows like Rick and Morty, but Solar Opposites blazes it own humorous trail as well.

However, fans might be wondering what the Solar Opposites season 5 story could possibly be about. The fourth season ended with an event that made it look like the entire series was finished, and the story was over. However, while that is how it looked, the show is coming back and Korvo and his family will remain a part of the story. The fourth season changed the premise of Solar Opposites, and that could lead to more changes in Solar Opposites season 5, including giving more screen time to side stories like The Wall and seeing the family in an entirely different environment.
