I really love this web comic. I’m very unsure how it will translate to anything beyond its current scope, which is essentially translation of individual “moments” into literal language. The shtick doesn’t have a chance to get old when it’s never a situation longer than like 6 panels. But I’m curious enough to be mildly interested.
And by all means, good for Nathan Pyle for cashing in on this. That’s awesome.
I agree. Apple does make good TV these days, so I’m hopeful this will turn out pretty decent.
It could be hilarious if they do a sort of Solar Opposites-like show or Coneheads.
These are not the calm and soothing voices that I read those comics in my head with.
Looks cute though.
The language is not verbose enough. That’s the whole point. And the voices don’t match the vibe of the comics.
Hopefully it turns out to be alright. Edit: on second viewing it’s not so bad. It’s kind of cute. But I’m cautious. Tiny trash 🎉
meh, has that “quirky animated comedy” vibe. Doesn’t match the aesthetic of the comic much. feels like just another generic animation that they had in the pipeline and they’ve just slapped some branding of a known comic ontop.
I agree. I feel like the obvious choice would have been these Aliens come to earth to observe our strange habits and, in the end, gives us a unique perspective of ourselves.
Wouldn’t that just be 3rd Rock From the Sun?
We could only be so lucky.
I don’t know if I will like this show, but I am happy if the comic creator got a bunch of money from it being made.
What if we take the premise of solar opposites and … make it child friendly?
I hate Earth. It’s a horrible home. People are stupid. They make some comic about aliens taking everything literally and turn it into an animated show. Who would ever watch that bollocks?
EDIT: No Solar Opposites fans here?
EDIT 2: Oh, there they are!
Is Nathan Pyle on Lemmy? Is that the OP of this post?
I’d be so stoked if he did an AMA here.

I read it as calm and clinical observation of small absurdities in human behavior, which made it funnier than if it was aliens being excited about things.

I’m weirded out by you people saying that you pictured the this post in a calm voice. It is pretty clearly anything but. Jase gets happy and exuberant over every tiny thing, taking joy in all the small moments. Reading it in a calm voice really seems to miss the point of the post…
Congrats to the creator for this big step!
Trailer looks fun and funny. I would watch it.
I really hate the voices. In my head the weekend always have that nasaly cartoon voice
