      Ah yeah, that’s the one. I forgot the name. But it’s exactly what I was talking about when I said the other space comedy felt “mean-spirited”.

        The Orville got MUCH less satirical in season 2 and even more so in season 3. There are still jokes for sure but I would struggle to call any of it mean spirited. There’s even this old home video TOS skit that Seth MacFarlane and his friend’s did in high school. I assume Seth or someone let the writers off their leashes when they didn’t get sued by Paramount in Season 1.
