I was expecting The Orville to be a Star Trek parody full of cheap shots and more or less funny humor. Previous films like Ted or A Million Ways to Die in the West have led to certain assumptions. So imagine my surprise when I found The Orville to be a proper sci-fi series with some humor, but more importantly good if not great story lines. The Orville tackles all kinds of topics ranging from religion to populism, while being sometimes more, sometimes less obvious about it. I love it. Seth MacFarlane is a great storyteller. I gave it nine stars, because even though it is a respectable show, I would have actually appreciated more humor in it.
