Liked: The Wall
Solar Opposites fans have come to expect new drama each season in the Wall, the ant farm-like structure where humans targeted by the replicants’ careless shrink-ray habits dwell within Yumyulack and Jesse’s bedroom. Beyond the visual cleverness of these scenes, which have great fun imagining how teeny-tiny people might repurpose normal-sized objects, the Wall offers high-stakes intrigue that contrasts in tone to the aliens and their goofy hijinks. Season four pushes the fraught conditions among the dueling settlements—the scrappy survivors led by Cherie (Christina Hendricks) versus the Jesse-worshiping religious cult led by the power-hungry Sister Sisto (Sutton Foster)—to outrageous new heights.
