Hulu Renews Solar Opposites for Season 6 Ahead of Season 5 Debut; Family Guy Halloween Special

Solar Opposites

Hulu debuted the Solar Opposites season five trailer during its panel at San Diego Comic-Con on Friday July 26. Dan Stevens also announced via a pre-recorded video that the hit adult animation series has been renewed for a sixth season. Solar Opposites season five premieres on August 12 with all 11 episodes, with a Halloween special coming later this year. Solar Opposites centers around a team of four aliens who are evenly split on whether Earth is awful or awesome. Korvo (Dan Stevens) and Yumyulack (Sean Giambrone) only see the pollution, crass consumerism, and human frailty while Terry (Thomas Middleditch) and Jesse (Mary Mack) love TV, junk food and fun stuff. On season 5, now that alien mission partners Terry and Korvo are married, the whole Solar Opposites team are focused on family values. Starring Dan Stevens, Thomas Middleditch, Sean Giambrone, Mary Mack.




Family Guy

At the Family Guy San Diego Comic-Con panel, the cast and producers revealed that the first of two Hulu Exclusive holiday specials will premiere Monday, October 14 on Hulu. The Halloween special will feature Glen Powell as the reigning champion in Quahog's annual Pumpkin Contest and Derek Jacobi as Rupert the teddy bear. Peter and his friends aim to unseat the reigning champion (Glen Powell, Anyone But You, Twisters) in Quahog’s annual Pumpkin Contest by any means necessary. In Season 23, Peter accidentally exposes his inability to throw a ball, Meg starts dating the giant chicken’s son and Chris loses his earring in a Lord of the Rings-inspired escapade. Additionally, Stewie finds out his stuffed bear Rupert was made in China and makes it his mission to take him back there to meet his family. The series will also parody The White Lotus, as the Griffin family vacation at a luxury resort, where Stewie worries that his wealthy new friends plan to sacrifice him in a volcano.
