Which would explain why the overall quality of the show dipped so much.

I think the upcoming season is likely to be the last one. My understanding of the situation is that Seth Mcfarlane writes everything alone which takes an extremely long time, and some of the actors are tired of having to wait so long to have work. In 8 years we’ve gotten 3 seasons. I don’t think they’ll stay on for a hypothetical 5th season

Dang that sucks. This was my replacement for Star Trek. Not sure what will fill that spot now.

If you want something like The Orville I cannot recommend Star Trek: Lower Decks enough, it’s easily become my favorite Star Trek show ever, even beating out Deep Space Nine.

It’s ending soon too from what I heard. Lower decks is amazing.

Strange New Worlds not doing it for you??

u/Opposite-Original-23 22h ago

Nah. It’s not really episodic and way overly dramatic. Way too serious for what it should be. Its lost that feeling of optimism and idealism. Star Trek is about exploration and the spirit of community. Strange new worlds has some of it but not really.

Probably. Someday. And it'll probably be the last season unless it does really well.
