We’re so used to hearing about shows being canceled that it’s an absolute delight to see great shows being renewed for new seasons, so the news from Prime Video and Hulu from Comic-Con 2024 has been a ray of streaming sunshine, with five big announcements in particular.

First up is Prime Video, theAmazon-owned streamer that’s already commissioned multiple seasons of the excellentInvincible –the show wrappedInvincibleseason 2earlier this year in March. And now there’s going to be a fourth after another season got greenlit – no, seriously. We’ve had an official announcement confirming it too, unlike when rumors were circulating in 2022 about itbeing secretly renewed. We don’t even know whenInvincibleseason 3will air yet, but executive producer Robert Kirkman toldVarietyat Comic-Con that the next season will feature the infamous blue super-suit from the comic books.

That’s not all. Prime Video has also confirmed a second season ofFoodtopia, and not one but two new seasons ofHazbin Hotel. AsThe Hollywood Reporterexplains, that was initially commissioned for two seasons so Prime Video is doubling its order here. AndSausage Party: Foodtopia, a spin-off from the 2016 animated movie that premiered early this month as one of theseveral new shows on the platform, and was clearly successful enough for Prime to commission a second season.

A legend returns alongside a space-age sitcom

Comic-Con also brought a first look at the long-awaited season three ofThe Legend of Vox Machina, which I’ve embedded above. It’s back on October 3. The first season was a successful Kickstarter and Prime Video then picked it up for season two, which premiered in early 2023 to widespread critical acclaim. According to Prime Video “everything is at stake” in this third season: “The Chroma Conclave’s path of destruction spreads like wildfire while the Cinder King hunts down Vox Machina. Our lovable band of misfits must rise above inner (and outer) demons to try and save their loved ones, Tal’Dorei, and all of Exandria.”

Last but not least, Hulu got in on the animated announcement action too: it’s ordered a sixth season of the animated adult sitcomSolar Opposites, and there will also be a Halloween special. Season five hasn’t started streaming yet – it premieres on August 12 – but once again it centres around Korvo, an intelligent alien scientist who hates Earth and wants to get away as soon as possible. The imminent new season will reportedly focus on family values and has big alien shoes to fill: season four currently has 100% on Rotten Tomatoes.
