With all the controversy (and cost to view) surrounding Star Trek: Discovery, fans may be looking for an alternative. And Seth MacFarlane’s The Orville may be it.
From the trailer, The Orville looks like a Galaxy Quest-meets-Star Trek mash-up. But according to interviews with show creator Seth MacFarlane, the show will “dig deeper”.
In an interview with Access Hollywood, Seth stated that “It’s not really as much Galaxy Quest…” as is being promoted and that they take great care in “doing thoughtful science fiction” and bringing the optimism of a better future back to sci-fi.
I don’t know about you, but I personally can’t wait for The Orville. With sci-fi TV favorites like Penny Johnson [Deep Space Nine] and Victor Garber [Legends of Tomorrow] combined with Seth’s highly successful track record and proven sci-fi/Star Trek fan-hood, The Orville promises to be a fun ride.
The Orville will premiere this fall in 2 parts on Fox September 10th and 17th, 2017. Stay tuned to Sci-Fi Bloggers and our YouTube channel for more on The Orville as news develops.
