That was my impression at first too. It was during the trek dry spell and I was thirsty for scifi that wasn’t marvel, but I was sick of American Dad and the other MacFarlane projects. I was blown away at the actual maturity of The Orville. I spent half of the first season expecting
When it never came, I finally relaxed and could enjoy the show for what it was. Good, enjoyable science fiction that didn’t take itself too seriously, but still tried to be real science fiction (you know, like Asimov and Heinlein and gods does it feel weird making that comparison) by asking questions about current society and the future. I’m excited for season 4.
EXACTLY. Especially when they encountered a distortion event that allowed them to see a two-dimensional world, I said out loud “oh wow, when will Stewie and Brian show up?” Then I figured that the alien with the bulbous head would be akin to his counterpart in American Dad, but he’s actually just a hilarious addition that highlights how clique-ey most Trek is, with all plot-lines revolving around the senior officers, you’re left to wonder about the rest of the crew. It’s why I love Lower Decks, because it turns that idea on it’s face. But in The Orville, it’s more of a nod than the centerpiece. Yeah. Glad I gave it a shot!
