Hello #solaropposites enjoyers! These are some goals of the #SaveOurSolars tag and what we would like to encourage from the fans themselves. While the engagement on Bluesky might not be as large, we still want to create the opportunity for fans here to participate!

"#SaveOurSolars
What is this?
#SaveOurSolars is a fan-organized campaign designed to celebrate the adult animated show Solar Opposites (Hulu/Disney+ outside the US) as it approaches what is currently slotted to be its final season. The show centers a family of four aliens who crash-land on Earth after their home planet was destroyed and the goofy sci-fi misadventures in suburbia often caused by their own naivety and ignorance to human customs. The aliens are evenly split on their opinions of living on Earth, along with varying degrees of loyalty to their overall mission -- raising the Pupa, a living supercomputer that will someday terraform and destroy the planet. 

In spite of being one of the platform's highest rated original shows, it was rather abruptly cancelled to the surprise of both fans and staff themselves. The sixth season, airing this fall, was not written with this in mind. Currently we are not aware of any specific reason or explanation as to why the show was cancelled at all. Text reads:

"*Six* seasons? Isn't that more than enough?"

While we're grateful to have had it last for so long -- an anomaly in the age of streaming, particularly for animated television shows -- we find it extremely unfortunate that such a funny, heartfelt, and unique show struggles to secure renewal, in spite of high ratings and staff openly expressing desire to continue production. The timing is especially frustrating when the show has established great strides, being one of the very few adult animated television shows with openly queer protagonists in a domestic setting; this cancellation comes one season after the two main characters get married. Regardless of intent, the impact it has on the viewers, who have invested so much time to these characters and plotlines, is disquieting. If there was a story worth being told for six seasons, then there's a story worth concluding. As such, we believe the show deserves a proper send-off, and if the powers that be refuse to see that through, then perhaps the fans will!Text reads:
What can I do?

Talk about the show and what you love about it! If you're encountering Solar Opposites for the first time, check it out and let us know what you think! Create something new, repost old work, discuss your favorite scenes or little details you appreciate -- and no matter what, when you post use the tag #SaveOurSolars so we can see it and boost! 

Additionally, supporting and reposting the work of others is highly encouraged, and we will try our best to promote whatever we can! If you're interested in seeing some of the love, be sure to follow our accounts (@SaveOurSolars on every platform), and feel free to tag us for visibility! Any type of fan work or fan appreciation is not only accepted but promoted. 

Does this include the B-plots? (Wall, Silvercops)
Of course! Anything related to the show is strongly encouraged! As a reminder, this is a tag for positivity, so we request there be no bashing on one plotline in favor of the others. This includes phrases like "The Wall is the only part worth watching" (not true) "silvercops is pointless I just want gay aliens" (there could be gay aliens there too. if you believed.) or any negativity that may diminish enthusiasm from others.  
Text reads:

"What do you hope to accomplish with this?" / [Insert negativity about how this is stupid/pointless]

The goal with this campaign will always be to celebrate the show for what it is, vocalize existing fan support, and act as a conduit for passion and inspiration. As much as we would love for this to change the hearts and minds of the decision makers or Walt Disney himself, we are also aware there are behind-the-scenes factors that impact what may happen next. Yes, another season or a movie would be amazing if at all possible to encourage, but ultimately it doesn't matter what network executives decide, we deserve the chance to celebrate the show while we still can. So let's make some noise!
