The Orville is an American science fiction comedy-drama television series created by and starring Seth MacFarlane as series protagonist Ed Mercer, an officer in the Planetary Union's line of exploratory space vessels in the 25th century. Inspired by several science-fiction sources, but mainly the original Star Trek as well as its Next Generation successor, both of which it heavily parodies and pays homage to, the show follows the crew of the starship USS Orville on their episodic adventures. Two seasons were aired on Fox in 2017–2018 and 2018–2019, and the third season is due to be released on Hulu. In Canada, the series was made available on February 23, 2021 on Disney+ under the Star brand, whose account holders can filter out more adult content for child audiences. The Orville is a joint production by Fuzzy Door Productions and 20th Television. Season one received generally negative reviews from critics, while season two was better-received.
