Solar Opposites

Show used to be a 10/10 for me but season 4 made me change it. I'm so upset they changed the voice actor for korvo. I didn't realize how important his character was till they changed the voice actor. The show is NOT the same. They would have been better off making a new character or something. Like why not find someone who sounds similar at least. The British accent completely takes away from the show. Like every time he's on screen I cringe when he talks. I REALLY don't understand the reasoning behind choosing the British accent. It completely changes the vibe of his character. He doesn't sound as serious and deadpan anymore. Maybe to a British person there isn't as much of a difference?? Idk. I just feel like the voice they chose for him makes him have a completely different personality. Like literally every aspect of this show is tainted with the fact they changed the voice. I can't even enjoy the wall side story. Ugh I don't think I've ever been so disappointed in a new season for a show.

BUT seasons 1-3 are totally worth watching, don't let my review turn you away completely from this show. Those seasons are a solid 10/10 for sure. I love those seasons!

Yes the wall parts are the best bits but in honesty it is all pretty dam good. The fans aren't as unbearable as the constantly butthurt Rick & Morty fans either which is a good thing. Also you don't have to wait 3 years between seasons. My only minor complaint with it is Korvo sounds too much like Rick but I can live with that.

I loved the first 3 seasons of this show. It was funny, clever and random. The dynamics between characters worked very well. I enjoy Justin Roilands style of absurd comedy and have been a fan of his characters. However, I understand the decision to let him go and don't blame the show for doing it. However, the complete rejection of his style ruins elements of the show I really enjoyed. Korvo simply doesn't seem like the same character anymore, which in effect has shifted terrys role and character. I only made it 5 episodes into season 4 before I just lost interest in the show.

It feels like they tried to hard to be witty with it without considering how the audience would respond to it. It is unfortunate that people are review bombing this show, but don't look past the fact that many don't like how this was approached. I also watch Rick and Morty, I think the Rick replacement has done a fantastic job so far, the Morty replacement needs some work, but it at least doesn't change the character and I believe it will improve. I really wish Solar Opposites would have taken this approach.

Other reviews I've read have been saying the wall story is so much more interesting and better than the actual show. I'll admit the wall story is very interesting and has a great concept. But I watch Solar Opposites because of the entire show. It's fun, crazy, over the top, and just great. I wouldn't say this show is underrated, but it isn't given enough credit for the great show it is. Keep watching, because it's worth it.

Its like Rick and Morty choose a channel on interdimensional cable and now we're watching a full season of whatever the freak this is. It crude, weird, disgusting humor and barely make since. I like it.
