This show is so freaking Star Trek that it out-Star Treks the Star Trek.
When that second episode of the first season dropped I said the same thing to a friend that’s a die hard Star Trek fan. They weren’t enjoying the new Trek, yet, but wanted the thought provoking episodes now, action later/sprinkled in
Totally agree, it’s definitely more Star Trek than any of the new Star Trek series.
It’s an alternate universe’s Star Trek. They just need some handwavium device to cross universe and they could make a crossover episode.
When are we getting the Wilbur TV show? That’s what I want to know.
it’s been a long road . . . .
Don’t you start.
We definitely do need that show…
I’m actually surprised there isn’t, as far as I know, a modern high-budget miniseries about the Wright brothers. It seems like such an obvious biography subject.
I know. They could easily do it now, and potentially very well. It seems like a slam dunk.

Can you imagine how cool it would be to see reproductions of those early planes flying? They wouldn’t have to stop at the first flight. They could do something like go up through WWI.
The Orville literally made me give Star Trek an actual try. I think of it as my first series of Trek.
Welcome beratna.
Another one here ☝️
So which one of those guys is Orville?
Orville was such an aimless show in the beginning. Obviously it started out going for campy comedy parody but it honestly wasn’t hitting the mark on the comedy often enough. I’m stalled out somewhere in early Season 3–not because I wasn’t enjoying it, I think it’s actually gotten pretty good by that point, but just time and other commitments.
I had the opposite experience lol! I really liked the first season, season 2 started off pretty well, but I lost interest before I got to season 3. It felt like the later episodes were either too preachy, or too focused on trying to make the characters “cool” instead of funny. I just wasn’t enjoying it any more
I love Trek but I don’t really care for McFarlane’s sense of humor, is the Orville worth checking out anyway?
