That’s a fair assessment. A friend of mine also dislikes MacFarlane for the exact reasons you mention, but I keep bringing up the Orville to him because it’s actually very well written and is proof that he’s got the capacity to respect heavier themes.

    I grew tired of MacFarlane's humor pretty soon after American Dad hit the scene, but The Orville is damned good television.

    I'd say the series feels 85% like Star Trek: The Next Generation (with a more prominent sense of humor) and 5% like what I would normally associate with Seth MacFarlane.
