I had an awful feeling when I saw the trailer for Star Trek Discovery. I had a good feeling when I saw the trailer to The Orville. It turns out my feelings were correct on both counts. The Orville is a bit of a Star Trek parody, but it is much more. There are a lot of jokes, initially excessive, but most are very well though. I think the only thing missing is a more significant plot. The elements are there (The Krill), but so far the episodes are self-contained. This series is a great pastime and reminds me of Firefly. I hope other sci-fi fans value it before it gets canned.
