What’s This TV Show About?

Coleman, Jessica Szohr, and Anne Winters. Chad Coleman, Norm Macdonald, Kai Wener, BJ Tanner, and Mike Henry recur in season three, aka New Horizons. Set 400 years in the future, the story centers on Captain Ed Mercer (MacFarlane) and the crew of the U.S.S. Orville. Continuing their mission of exploration, the shipmates navigate both the mysteries of the universe and the complexities of their own interpersonal relationships.
 

Telly’s Take

Unless they decide to publicize viewership, it is typically difficult to predict whether Hulu will cancel or renew a show like The Orville for season four. Thanks to switching from a broadcast network to a streaming service and the global pandemic, it’s been more than three years between seasons. Word is that a fourth season is highly unlikely to happen, at least for now. I’ll keep my ears open and an eye out for news, and will update this page with breaking developments.
