There exists an entire group of people who don't know The Orville is a comedy show and take it dead serious like Star Trek. What do you think of this?

I think you might be the autist, actually

Who tf cares. They push tranny garbage so it's not worth watching regardless
>>
The Orville was canceled for being "too expensive" but what was so expensive about it? It looks rather cheap (and that's fine)
>>
>>219828229
if you actually watched it you'll have seen how the comedy gets tamer and the more TNG/DS9/VOY tone starts to kick in. Season 3 is closer to a season of Star Trek than it is a comedy show.
>>
>>219828791
They’re making a new season
>>
>>219828791
Nowadays when the likes of Seth Macfarlane says that the show is ''too expensive'' what he means is it costs more than the likes of Hulu are comfortable paying for.
>>
>>219830408
oh wow nice
>>
>>219828229
Yeah. This >>219828258 MacFarlane lied about it being a comedy show to get greenlit and only ever wrote jokes for the first couple of episodes. After that it's just off-brand Star Trek.
>>
>>219828229
I think people who watch Orville be it as a comedy or a real sci fi are both retarded
>>
>>219832117
>real sci-fi
>real
There's a lot of sci-fi genres. This is one of them. If you like hard sci-fi only, good for boring you.

Found an Orville fag.
>>
This scene alone should cement the fact that it's a comedy show
>>
>>219828229
I feel like it's similar to Strange New Worlds where the people making it don't quite get the tone of Star Trek, just in different ways. The Orville Season 3 didn't have enough fun, while SNW needed things to be more serious with less quips and the like.
>>
Orville is a better successor to star trek than any star trek series since ent.
>>
>>219830392
And closer to Trek than any actual Trek of the past 15 years. I like how they use some of the planets as metaphors, like how the planet the Xelayans (like the super-strong qt) come from is essentially Star Trek:the Planet - an advanced, enlightened culture of scientists and philosophers. And as a nod to the differing tones of the two shows, Xelaya has a ”weightier” environment.

Seth is one of those people himself, you know. He wants to make a serious scifi show so bad he actually forgot it's supposed to be a comedy.
>>
>>219828258
This. Seth openly says he wished he could write star trek and is stuck having to be "haha funny family guy man"
>>
>>219833340
the comedy was just the way the studios would buy the series.

He just wanted to star in a Trek show since his teens
>>
>>219833392
he shows up in Ent too, obviously he's a fan
>>
>>219833697
I had forgotten he was in a random Enterprise episode being yelled at by Tucker.

I guess he prefered being in TOS or TNG
>>
>>219833073
it's a sci fi show with comedic elements
>>
>>219828229
I take it dead serious, because comedy in this show sucks most of the time. But their serious "star trek lite" plots? I like those.
>>
Did you watch the last season of the show? You stupid nigger
>>
>>219828229
Yes, the seriously mentally disabled. You've made something up because you're starved for attention. What a hilariously pathetic existence you must lead. Why can't you just leave the rest of us alone?
