The Orville Archives

When we last checked in with Seth MacFarlane regarding the future of The Orville (with "New Horizons" now added), it was back in January and MacFarlane was asked if there was anything he could offer in terms of an update While he couldn't get into specifics, MacFarlane did add: "How do I answer this question?

And with that, Seth MacFarlane's The Orville (with "New Horizons" now added) came to an end for a third season – and maybe for good? It's hard to say Because just when we're ready to administer last rites to any remaining hope, something comes up that keeps us holding on a little longer Back at[...]

Considering that MacFarlane is the creator of The Orville and has made no secret of the fact that he has been heavily influenced by the "Star Trek" universe, it seems only fitting that the pop culture icon himself, William Shatner, be the one to present him with the honor Here's a look at what The[...]
