Good news for anyone who binged the Shlorpians last year: the alien family is coming back to Netflix for one more round. Netflix has picked up the final batch of episodes, and it’s a licensing deal, not a new order, so this is the show’s Hulu finale finding a second home.

A Strong Second Life
Animated shows don’t always travel well, but this one has. Since Seasons 1-5 arrived on Netflix, they’ve pulled in 111 million viewing hours globally. That’s a healthy result for a licensed adult animated series, and it likely helped bring Season 6 over.
The show follows a dysfunctional group of aliens who escape the destruction of Planet Shlorp and crash-land on Earth. Their mission is to survive while the infant-like Pupa terraforms the planet, but Earth culture, petty squabbles and shrinking humans keep distracting them. The voice cast includes Thomas Middleditch, Mary Mack, Sean Giambrone and Dan Stevens.
Will There Be a Season 7?
Not officially. Hulu ended the run with Season 6, and the ending divided fans: some felt it was rushed, and it closes on a big cliffhanger. Co-creator Mike McMahan, however, is teasing hope, saying the Shlorpians are “not getting out that easy” and that the ending would pay off if the show ever returned.
If Season 6 posts big numbers on Netflix this October, could the streamer step in? It has happened before with other shows.
