This is good news for assuring that SNW’s 3rd season production will move ahead after the strike.
Greenlighting a couple of extra episodes and a 4th season would make strategic sense, but I’m just not willing to give Paramount the benefit of the doubt on that.
The Orville geeks me out, because all the ads play it up as “FAMILY GUYYYYYYY IINNNNN SPPPAACCCEEEE” and I whole heartedly believe that’s how he pitched it to make it happen -
And then it was one big bait n switch, “HAHA actually I’m just a nerd and wanted to make a good scifi show suck it Fox!”
That’s actually how he did it. That’s why the first couple eps are kinda meh, then BOOM if the stars should appear, pria, krill, what the fuck just happened???
One does not simply tell Seth MacFarlane no. 😂
@Taleya @Facebones i both agree and disagree. I think thats what was pitched in part to get fox to bite. But as the writing flowed after the pilot it became clear the direction it should take. The show had an amazing upwards trajectory in storytelling from start to hopefully not the end. We deserve more shows like this.
