Seth MacFarlane Spoofs Star Trek in 'The Orville' - Watch the Comic-Con Trailer!
Seth MacFarlane is joined by The Orville co-stars Adrianne Palicki and Halston Sage for a panel at 2017 Comic-Con on Saturday (July 22) in San Diego, Calif.
The actors, along with cast members Mark Jackson, J. Lee, Penny Johnson Jerald, Chad L. Coleman, Scott Grimes, and Peter Macon, debuted new footage from the upcoming Fox comedy series.
The Orville is being described as a mix between Seth‘s show Family Guy and the beloved series Galaxy Quest. Some people are also considering it a Star Trek parody!
Officially, the show is “a one-hour science fiction series set 400 years in the future that follows the adventures of the U.S.S. Orville, a mid-level exploratory vessel. Its crew, both human and alien, faces the wonders and dangers of outer space, while also dealing with the familiar, often humorous problems of regular people in a workplace…even though some of those people are from other planets, and the workplace is a faster-than-light spaceship.”
The Orville premieres on Fox on September 10.
