What kind of watch this is
The Orville is a 2017 sci-fi comedy that treats the universe like a workplace with bad coffee. Seth MacFarlane created it. It runs 26 hours across 3 seasons, which is about the length of a long-haul flight without a window seat. The ship is described as not-so-functional, a detail that feels less like a plot point and more like a character flaw.
How it did with audiences
The Orville debuted on a Sunday in September 2017, then switched to Thursday nights at 9 p.m. That move made it Fox’s highest-rated broadcast in that slot in two years. Including DVR and VOD, it was the network’s most-viewed drama debut since Empire premiered in 2015. On TMDB, users rate it 7.6 out of 10. A sci-fi comedy outperforming a hip-hop drama on a major network? The math checks out.
What came next for the cast
Penny Johnson Jerald spent years on Castle and 24 before The Orville. Scott Grimes had already played Robin Hood and appeared in Band of Brothers. The show did not cause what followed, but it sits in the middle of their timelines. After 2017, Grimes appeared in Oppenheimer and ted. Johnson Jerald’s next listed credit is Good Fortune.
