Season One Of The Orville Holds As Fan Favorite For All The Right Reasons Diana Marsh, January 8, 2018January 8, 2018 Halston Sage as Lt. Alara Kitan (image courtesy of TVGuide.com) With strong characters, engaging, relatable storylines, brilliant special effects, an incredible music score, and an all star line-up that exceeded expectations, The Orville is a stand out series that has done exactly it set out to do; bring a fresh perspective to the Sci-fi genre by building upon past successes with its own unique brand of wit, wisdom, and humanity.

While critics have had a field day with the show’s resemblances to Star Trek TNG, the fans see it as a sign of love and respect towards the ground breaking series, and with its addressing of inflamatory social issues involving sexuality, religious superiority, and interspecies/race conflicts, Seth MacFarlane and company are doing some ground breaking work of their own. When religious dogma is used as judge, jury, and executioner.

Congrats to the cast and crew of The Orville on scoring another season! It was hard earned but well deserved. Full episodes on Fox of season one can be seen here.
