Re: The Orville

It is time for the show to go. When it stopped being a parody of Trek it was already over. I hope it is gone. The aspects that made it a parody are now just embarressing eg the robot. Lighton's link about future series depending on viewing numbers is  bad reason to have more.

Re: The Orville

Ignore season 3, and this was a good show that ended before its time.

Season 3 was a train wreck and took likable characters and turned them into narcissistic, meddling monsters. Goodbye to trash.

Wow.  While I didn't enjoy the last episode that much, I thought some of the others this season were great.

2020.  Meh.

Re: The Orville

The Orville Season 4...

While there is fan demand and hype around the show, The Orville may not get renewed for a fourth season after all, and there are multiple reasons behind it. Adrian Palicki, the actor behind First Officer Kelly Grayson, has stated that despite all the rumors surrounding the show's fourth season, nothing has been confirmed. Additionally, all the actors from The Orville's cast have been released from their contracts, even lowering the chance for the show to return.

Re: The Orville

That's really not a good idea. They have a hit show which a lot of people like. I guess Seth McFarland just doesn't want to do it any more he is more interested in his comedy cartoon shows which I have never seen than his popular show The Orville.

Re: The Orville

I read the novella not long ago, The Orville: Sympathy for the Devil and it was both wild and remains very on brand for this spiritual successor to Star Trek of the last century as well as made a fine addition to the OrvilleVerse of stories. If anyone's looking for another episode, it's right there smile

Re: The Orville

Seth McFarland has had some Joss Whedon sized scandals involving women he's worked with over the years.

Considering he dated the lead actress and they broke up, I'm not surprised the show is dying/dead. Also, props to Seth for writing himself into a Star Trek series of his own creation. If that's not as baller a nerd move as it gets I don't know what is.
