The Orville
The Orville
Set 400 years in the future, the crew of the U.S.S. Orville continue their mission of exploration, navigating both the mysteries of the universe, and the complexities of their own interpersonal relationships.
it's definitely very faithful to the star trek formula while still modernizing it.
much like other seth mcfarlane projects the comedy feels like it throws a lot at the wall at once and about half of it sticks (but the bits that do stick are funny enough to make it work and worthwhile)
my biggest issue is that when it comes to its grand statements it seems too afraid to piss anyone off and ends up using a lot of words to say very little. it wants to be progressive but it seems scared to.
all in all i understand why people like this show, it's pretty good! i watched about 2 seasons i believe and that's enough for me.
