The Orville Season 3 Includes Star Trek: TOS Homage
Orville has always drawn inspiration from Gene Roddenberry's Star Trek, but Season 3 would have an unmistakable homage to Star Trek: TOS.
Orville was created and played by Seth MacFarlane, creator of Family Guy and a longtime Star Trek fan.
The sci-fi comedy series follows Ed Mercer (MacFarlane) and his crew on the USS Orville exploring 25th-century space.
Adrianne Palicki, Penny Johnson Jerald, Scott Grimes, Peter Macon, Jessica Szohr, J Lee, Mark Jackson a Anne Winters jako moje MacFarlane.
While The Orville 1st and 2nd series will air on Fox, the series will move to Hulu for its third and final series, which will air on June 2.
The creator of Orville made several references from Star Trek to Family Guy, and for once in a show, the cast of guest The Next Generation played.
Apparently, MacFarlane will continue to allow Star Trek to influence the writing of The Orville and slip into the TOS reference in the new season.
While the TV Line report isn't specific about the landing party in episode 3, it seems inevitable that there will be some unfortunate staff in red T-shirts typical of Star Trek: TOS.
