The Orville is kind of an anti-bait-and-switch : it sounds a so-so premise (Star Trek with toilet humour) but rapidly goes beyond that into a really good show with a lot of really likeable characters.
- Jtsummers 4y agoThe humor also drops off significantly after the first few episodes. My impression was it was greenlit on the premise of "Family Guy in Spaaaaaace" but overall he wanted something more serious so the humor is reduced a bit as the it progresses and the stakes are raised in the stories.
