I hate the design of the ship, the shuttles in season 3 at least look cool. Other than that, it was great show until season 3 when I felt they took too much time for EEEEEEEVERYTHING. This is literally the first show ever where I started skipping through episodes.
What is it these days that series and movies maker seem to think quantity equals quality?
Can't agree with you there. Season 3 was when Orville was at its best IMHO.
I imagine they had to use that design as Star Trek probably wouldn't let them use nacelles in any configuration.
I rather like the design because it looks a lot like magnetic field lines, and if it's generating some kind of field it would probably have a similar geometry
Knowing Seth McFarlanes history, I always suspect a dirty joke behind everything he does, so I always feel like the ship design is also a dirty joke that I just haven't figured out jetzt.
