Solar Opposites, a new animated offering from Rick and Morty creative duo Justin Roiland and Mike McMahan, is headed to Hulu, set to showcase the story of a family of advanced extraterrestrials who have been forced to take refuge on a planet in the backwater part of the galaxy, called Earth, specifically in suburban middle America.
Brandishing obvious aesthetic similarities to the ultra-popular Adult Swim series, Solar Opposites will feature a voice cast consisting of Roiland, joined by Sean Giambrone (The Goldbergs), Mary Mack (Golan the Insatiable) and Thomas Middleditch (Silicon Valley).
Hulu was clearly confident in Roiland and McMahan, having given their new brainchild a two-season order back in August 2018, confirming 16-episodes overall and cementing Solar Opposites Season 2 nearly two years before the series would ultimately premiere.

We talk with the legendary Ernie Hudson on his new role as the bonkers new boss on Hot Streets and his prolific career.
Adult Swim’s Hot Streets mashes together the formula of police procedurals with the unexpected insanity of sci-fi serials and existentialist fiction. The result is a cop show unlike no other and one of the most unusual and fun programs to air on Adult Swim in a long time. Hot Streets’ Season 2 returns with even more ridiculous crimes to solve and some absurd characters to add to the already eclectic Hot Streets team.
One of the most significant changes in Hot Streets Season 2 is that the crime division gets a new boss, John Wayne Jet Wayne Jr., who is a 700 year-old talking jet that can also turn people into crystals. If all of this wasn’t enough, Hot Streets enlists Ernie Hudson to provide the confident,...

Hot Streets Season 2 walks the beat and extinguishes supernatural crime by perfecting on an already solid formula.
This Hot Streets Season 2 review contains no spoilers.
"Never forget what Hot Streets is really about..."
"It's about solving cases, Bye!"
Television shows can sometimes get attacked for being “random” with their storytelling or comedy, but it’s actually quite difficult to be effectively random. There’s an art to surprising your audience with a complete left turn, yet one that’s not so disconnected or weird that it will alienate viewers.
The same can be said for parodies that take established structures and turn them on their head and breathe fresh life into traditional tropes. Many programs on Adult Swim follow this formula to some degree, but last year the first season of Hot Streets proved that it was particularly special.
It’s simultaneously brilliant and idiotic, but now that it’s...

Seth Green and several other “Robot Chicken” writers and producers have sold an adult animated comedy pilot to Hulu, Variety has learned exclusively.
The series is titled “Crossing Swords.” When Patrick, a goodhearted young peasant with dreams of earning his knighthood and dispensing justice to evildoers, lands a coveted squire position at the royal castle, his dream job quickly turns into a nightmare. In this kingdom, corruption starts at the top, and staying true to his lofty goals will be a thornier proposition than Patrick anticipated. It’s all the sex, violence and full-frontal nudity you’d expect from a “premium fantasy soap starring pre-school toys.”
John Havartine and Tom Root will write and executive produce. Havartine joined “Robot Chicken” as an executive producer in 2012 during the show’s sixth season, while Root is the show’s head writer and executive producer. Green will also executive produce along with Matt Senreich and Eric Towner.
