Seth MacFarlane gets crap for his writing style, but I’m totally a sucker for it. I especially enjoy when he’s on screen. 1000 Ways to Die in the West and The Orville are amazing works from him that I thoroughly enjoy. I really wish he did more live action work.

I felt like Orville succeeded despite him. I think he's okay but I’ve seen him play himself a thousand times before and idc anymore. If he's writing for it, it’s still good and I really think the rest of the cast is what kept me coming back. #teamgordon

The Orville felt like he wanted to actually make a star trek the next generation clone, and Fox wanted the family guy in space. Because I feel like season 2 really got it. And then fox canned it.

100%. Season 2 was peak Orville. Season 3 did not feel as good to me, though.
