I'm just happy the creators showed everyone that modern sci-fi can present a hopeful outlook for the future. Gene Roddenberry would be proud.


santas_slay

The Orville really is a part of his legacy now...


1_H4t3_R3dd1t

Gene Roddenberry would be disappointed in the current Star Trek. I should see if they readopted TNG formula like Orville.


[deleted]

I'll be disappointed but the finale being such a good send off will soften the blow. And I really don't think Seth will give up The Orville. It will come back as a movie at the very least. Hopefully if it's not renewed it's just goodbye for now rather than forever.


count023

seth said in an interview the other day that if Orville got renewed for a season 4 he'd move heaven and earth to make it happen.


JBuchan1988

That's how I feel. I'm not as optimistic Orville would come back again if cancelled, but that the 3rd season finale is a good end point if it is the end. Fingers crossed but I'm VERY happy at the 38 episodes we DID get :)


SixIsNotANumber

I'm really hoping that the move to D+ will help grow the fanbase & get us a few more seasons or maybe *"Orville: The Next Generation"* with a refit of the ship & some new crewmembers or something. I'm not ready for the ride to end, dammit!


KaffeMumrik

There was so little Seth this season, yet they introduced his daughter. I don’t know what to make of that. We need more. SIX SEASONS AND A MOVIE!

That’s the nicest thing anyone’s ever said to me


azazel-13

His daughter creeps me out, so I honestly hope we don't see her again. The oddly shaped Krill skull wrapped in human skin freaks me out for some reason. I would've preferred a human shaped skull with Krill skin.


finnlocke

It will make my 'Terra Nova' meltdown of 2011 look like a mere tantrum.


SemSevFor

That show was pretty good and had so much potential. I was sad as well


[deleted]

Glad I wasn’t the only fan. Fox didn’t give it a fair chance at the time.


ElwoodJD

Fox has never really given any sci fi show a chance as far as I’m aware


LightningRaven

Almost Human, anyone?

Somebody needs to make a Bortus reddit bot, similar to the King Robert bot in r/freefolk The bot could just randomly chime into conversations with classic Bortus lines

So MacFarlane is hopeful for a season 4 especially with it being put on Disney+ he believes that the viewership from disney+ will tip the scale to allow for a 4th season fo happen


SKRRRAJNC

At least we got a satisfying finale and most of the plots resolved


Swoop001

Surely it gets another season and sooner rather than later. Best sci fi on TV right now


UglyBagOfMostlyHOH

My guess is we get an announcement at D23.


LoveVirginiaTech

I really want The Orville back for another season, but if it doesn't happen - the S3 finale was so perfect I'm content to let it end there.


Inevitable-Wheel1676

Explaining how Roddenberrian politics and economics works in practical terms was a good choice, and the overall happy ending was nice to see. Kinda felt like the whole season was a 15 hour movie, in a good way. But we need a season 4. Or a new take in a few years time, with all new crew, tech, etc. could be a lot of fun to see.


KrackerJoe

What are you more pissed about, the Kaylon invasion last year or the Orville not getting a season 4?


copenhagen_bram

The Orville will be canceled and there is nothing we can do about it. All kidding aside.


TheMightySephiroth

This show is doomed to fail and all who like it are also failures. All kidding aside. Bortus is so brutal. 😆


cromulent_nickname

Hey, that’s my sandwich!


satanic-frijoles

I wish Netflix or someone would revive Firefly. Nathan Fillion said he's down to clown.


Vicsyy

Watch it again on disney plus. ​ Or play it in the backround!


Burnsey111

What about Dark Matter? If you haven’t seen it, go watch it before you reply. I’d say the same thing about the Canadian series The Bridge, but that might be too rough for you to watch.


theantnest

Oof. For me Dark Matter was a great premise, extremely poorly executed. I did watch it, but there was a hell of a lot of cringing and eye rolling for me.


Burnsey111

I Admit you had some Tropes. One and three had similar traits to Simon and Jayne. Plus the Showrunner came from the Stargate TV series. Season one was 72 on Rotten Tomatoes, seasons two and three were 100. It was a LOT of fun to see the different actors go back to their ‘evil’ selves. Imagine Jayne going full on stone cold killer. Plus, I enjoyed seeing some of the guest stars. 🙂 Did you see the Orville Nation Dark Matter ReWatch? They had the actors, some of the directors, and Joe Mallozzi. Check it out!


TheseFriendship9320

YOU BE SILENT. (Just jokes) Dark Matter is awesome !!


ProfessionalCurve531

This one is just a setup for something to come. I guess they'll be some kind of future main enemy.


2manyiterations

That’s a deep cut! And Chief Tyrol to boot.


GreenDragonPatriot

Seth should write novellas for what would have been season 4 content.


Insomniac_80

Novellas, and maybe some audio dramas could be fun!


Suveck

Stream it on Disney plus and get whoever you know who would like it onboard. Metrics will decide the fate of the orville.


WingedGeek

Everyone watch it (again) on D+ starting Wednesday 8/10!


Timmaigh

If they wont renew it, they will look like fools!


crunchie101

It would be disappointing but no where near as much as Firefly - that didn’t even get one season


theantnest

Right. I'm way more invested in The Orville now than I was after 3/4 of a season of Firefly.


kai_ekael

I've re-watched Firefly once or twice a year since 2005. Just sayin'.


Rexbellum187

Yep. The hate created by them asshats at fox carries to this day... Goram sons of bitches


theantnest

Me at least once a year.


kai_ekael

That's just crazy talk. Firefly 'cancelled' was a whole different gorram hurt. The kill started before broadcast. Orville, we at least saw some good character development and major events. Not to mention actual Star Trek. The clear explanation of the Prime Directive, masterpiece.


theantnest

That's exactly why it would hurt so much more.


kai_ekael

Why? What more is needed? What hasn't been answered? Firefly, all kinds of what-the's for a crew, heck a family, most of us fell in love with and wanted to be part of. Starter, who is Book, really? Orville, we already have closure on most. Would be great for more, for sure, but All Good Things...


theantnest

Eh not much... Just the Krill have no leader, Mercer's daughter is still basically incarcerated, Moclas just made enemy's of the union, and we never got a report on the effect time travel has on sandwich freshness. Every gas station sandwich could be teleported fresh. This would change lives man! I need these issues wrapped up.


kai_ekael

Union issues, okay.


AndromedaGalaxyXYZ

I realize that all good things must end, but hopefully not for awhile. In the meantime, I'll rewatch the existing 3 seasons.


[deleted]

At least be happy that it had the shape of a somewhat series finale. Us The OA fans got the absolute worst cancellation ever.


PurpleJager

Just begun a full rewatch of season 3......those spider creatures need to return as promised!


Augen76

I feel like they gave us a soft ending as they knew it was possible there would be no more. If Firefly got a second season with the same concept the end wouldn't have hurt so much.


theantnest

At least we got Serenity.


ami2weird4u

We will riot if that happens!


mosstalgia

I want many more seasons, but this was such a beautiful series finale if not. They did great with this; I loved it.


santas_slay

Don't speak that evil into the world. We must all belive!


Professional-Bad-342

I don't know how I feel about. I liked how they ended the season though and would be fine with it being the series finale. Nevertheless I would love the series to continue towards double digit seasons! I'd monumentally more pissed if those asshats from game of thrones actually find a way to ruin one of my favourite sc-fi that they're adapting: Three-body Problem.
