When I first started this show I found it to be a really awkward mix of comedy and seriousness. It had some jokes thrown it at the most inopportune times as some kind of comic relief from a really serious situation. Perhaps the first half of the first season was actually a bit rough or maybe the show just grew on me, but by season 2 I found myself loving this show.
To me it seems as every bit as comfy, intellectually interesting and even funny as some classic Star Treks while still clearly being its own thing. I wish more comfy space shows like this would get made.
What are your thoughts on The Orville? Also I miss Alara.
You know you made me look this up.
Halston Sage seemed to have dated Seth McFarlane and broken up. Every article I found so far seems to assert that both producers and writers left the door open for her to return and she has for a couple of episodes here and there. So what you said seems possible but unlikely.
Jessica Szhor dating Seth McFarlane seems to be a rumor and I’ve found no confirmations of this except some gossip rags. So what you asserted seems not very possible.
If there is a charitable explanation, i.e. that people who work together breakup and data without being dicks to each other or showing nepotism and you have no evidence to indicate otherwise, I find it quite unkind to accuse people this way.
