Thank god! I've been a fan since it was announced way back when. For Christmas this year, my sister-in-law bought me "The World of Orville" and the physical collection of the comics, as she knew I bought the digital ones.

I very much look forward to another season!

If you read the article it's pretty clear that he is in denial of a dying project. The other actors are tired of him faffing about and are doing other projects. Even if it lives another season its not going to be good.

Yeah check this interview out

55 episodes over 5 years? The actors can be locked into a project like that, even if the show really is excellent, they have to eat too.

Also I never knew those two cast members were married breifly

Serious question: what is “faffing about?”

[–] [email protected] 9 points 10 months ago

spend time in ineffectual activity.

"we can't faff around forever"
