- Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane and the rest of the cast of The Orville stopped by EW’s Comic-Con studio to discuss their new Fox show, set 400 years in the future on the U.S.S. Orville starship. The show will also see MacFarlane reuniting with Charlize Theron, who appeared in his 2014 film A Million Ways to Die in the West. “I can’t tell you anything!” MacFarlane said about Theron’s guest-starring role. “I can tell you that she’s in the show, and she’s fantastic.”

I treat The Orville like it was the continuation show after Star Trek Voyager. I love it to bits. I WILL RIOT IF IT GETS CANCELLED.
Seth FTW
me too, i think I like it better than Picard series. It's the Star Trek we all wanted.
what about Enterprise?
I even enjoy it more than Voyager.
Sucks that it got cancelled.... Ugh
Presenter: How did you get Charlize Theron to be on Orville?
Seth: I asked her
I love The Orville. GREAT show. I hope it's around for a long time to come.
It has already received a tax incentive for season 3. Something Discovery can't claim. Yeoh's spinoff has been postponed, and Stewart's spinoff went from an ongoing series to a limited run, and still has not received funding. Alex Kurtzman has a history of using spinoff announcements to conceal his failing projects.
Probably gets canceled by suits because it is a great show...
@@chompysaid204 They are still talking about Whoopie Goldberg is why Stewart's spinoff went from an ongoing series to a limited run. She put her radical Democrat stink on it.
@@qik3300 Yeah. She is crazy as hell now.
It is going to Hulu where it will most likely die, assuming there actually is a 3rd season.
ff to 9:30 if you're here for the Charlize talk
Not all heroes wear capes. Thank you
Messy Thanks
Who's Charlize Theron?
You're dead to me DonCDXX
Messy thanks!
The cast's vibe is so chill and wholesome, probably a bless to be a part of it
Orville is awesome! I'm pleasantly surprised!
Absolutely. It is such a great show.
Yup I love it.
about a girl is the best episode as yet!great production too!I like just about everything about it!music, costumes, makeup and nice casting too!
Love it and completely agree "I am Hunger Games'd out, I think if I see one more distopian movie about how bad the future is gonna be I'm just gonna kill myself. Its just like enough." Yes.
Nailed it!
I read this while he was saying it, just proves how true it is.
@@Ozzie-pl9no i mean that alone doesn’t prove anything that’s just bound to happen once in a million people scrolling through a million comments
That's how I feel about Zombies! Seems like creativity is drying up!
This is the REAL Star Trek reboot.
Yeah, its the Star Trek the fans wanted but CBS didnt want to give us apparently.
The sad thing is, I absolutely love this show. I was expecting something poking fun and being a parody of good sci-fi. immediately realized the show isn’t just good sci-fi, it’s great!
He works so much I am amazed he has time, but he always some how finds away to make it amazing
DAMN seth looks good here😂😍
He always looks good 😍
How the hell does Seth get more handsome as he ages???
money lol
Lol don’t care if totally kiss him if I could
All men do.
😊
MGTOW :)
Patrick Stewart let Seth in on whatever black magic keeps him young.
Orville is more like Star Trek than the actual new Start Trek. I wish Seth was in charge of the new ST Discovery.
Paul Graham Me to.
except its not , its like the cheap knockof version of startrek. STD is a new direction yes, but its a good show.
@John Smith it's official startrek and Boreville is not
@John Smith I can't be better startrek when it isn't startrek dumsbass XD
@John Smith denying facts doesnt make you look smart.
This is such a great show! It is smart, has real heart, tackles real issues, has real drama, but then can be silly too. I have never seen a show or movie so expertly blend drama and humor as this show does!
Agreed!
Well said, I totally agree!!
The original Star Trek did. That and the twilight zone were the inspirations for this show
I was all set to hate the Orville , and wound up loving it . It is intelligent , well written , funny and sincere. One of the best shows on air .
You don't get to see in the series how handsome Mark Jackson really is, haha
Seth McFarlane is really sharp. His self-deprecating take on the character is a welcome change from the stiff heroic captains from Star Trek, or the horny heroic captain in the case of Captain Kirk.
he kinda reminds me of sisko flawed but loyal
@@Pixelkip latest activity here that ive seen, hellaur
The Title is misleading. Let's cut to the chase. They acted together before and they are friends. He asked, she said yes. The end.
I discovered this series only a week ago, and can honestly say, this is a creative, entertaining, fun series, that encompasses so many different topics that plague our societies today. I can only hope that there are MANY more new episodes to come...bring on seasons 3, 4, 5 etc.
check out a little known show called STAR TREK if you enjoy such antics as found on The Orville,,,
I so miss Halston Sage in the show, she is amazing.
The Orville is the best. 1000x better then Star Trek Discovery.
Right, which is why they needed to *BEG* stars to be on it early on, because people are so willing to watch without the gimmicks ;) Don't get me wrong, it's not a bad show, it's just not a good show, either. It's just.... there.
the endless urine jokes get a little tiresome.
Loved the comments on how a good show can stand on its own with a couple well written character relationships. Thank you SM for doing this show and creating quality family SciFi content. I love how you deal with the tough comments and questions, just like how the Orville deals with the tough problems our future faces. Gene Roddenberry would be proud someone can still create beautiful quality content.
No pressure Seth but literally everybody is hyped.
Halston Sage," Can you open this Jar Of Pickles for me!"......One line I will remember!
I thought the Majority Rule episode was great. It dealt with social media.
Seth with that EW jab at the beginning. Nicely done.
Did anyone else notice that almost every time the reporter would ask Seth McFarland a question he would respond with which seemed like a snide remark or a poke at entertainment weekly?? Way to go Seth!!!!!!!
Taterfett they deserve it
I must say, Charlize Theron was quite excellent as Pria.
"Better than Galaxy Quest" - the correct response was "Bitch, I don't see Alan Rickman here."
Republican = Star Wars
Democrat = Star Trek
Independent = Orville
Charlize and Seth have such great chemistry together, I loved her episode of the show
They all look like they had a lot of fun making this show. Really looking forward to it!
Mark Johnson's voice is awesome!
Mark Jackson
I love The Orville!!!!! Season two is even better than season one and Seth is adorably handsome!
When I first saw the episode with Charlize Theron, I was like 'what really good blackmail does Seth have on her that got her to do the show 😂 it's nice to know she is just a kind person and did the show for her friend.
dang Seth trolling EW
Translate to English
@@obscure.reference Entertainment Weekly
@6:57...this is at the heart of the show...and it has a lot...Thank You Seth!
I am enjoying this show a hell of a lot more than I expected to.
this is a slap in the face to CBS for gating there damn startrek to there shity subscription service.
STD is a slap in the face to sci fi fans
STD is a slap in the face to sci fi
STD is a slap in the face
STD is STD
I am a trekkie for 40 years. Seth MacFarlane will blow that Disco show out of the water !
This show is underwatched, underated, and under the covers, pun intended. Love tg8s show, seth is amazingly talented, well wink wink family guy. I love ORVILLE, his talent choices on the show was excellent. After each episode i want more, i for one am addicted. Go orville crew,
estoy enamorada de seth macfarlane 😘😍😘😍😍
Yo también ❤❤
Seth is so happy here! Loving that
Seth really doesn't like Entertainment Weekly... Nice burrrrrrrns :D
Well if you look at how she frames her questions and how she askes them she seems to be trying to catch them out to make it look ridiculous and silly. That's what critics had in mind as soon as they seen it. None of them watched it, they all went by the trailer and made there mind up before it came out. It shows, considering every single fan that watched it loved and every critic shat on it.
@@TheDrummer9992 I agree and I think most critics suck!!!!
TheDrummer9992 their*
I agree with Seth about being tired of dytopian shows, like The Expanse (great show) and Kill Joys and Ascension ...
The Book Series´source material of the Expanse is rather realistic by mindset than dystopian. The Expanse´s exaggerating musical score has much to do with this slightly uncomfortable feeling of endless betrayal around any corner waiting, without them giving us a break of it in between. I really think by now they overuse Horns and deep Bass sounds etc. in that Series, as like, in EVERY.DAMN.SCENE, even the calm ones where actually nothing happens. Starts to annoy me. Its not about action in the first place, so they should stop pretending it.
I don't find The Expanse to be dystopian per se, it is darker but I still find it very hopefull and it feels really fresh in it's more authentic approach. It is harsh of course but its fascinating how sexuality is handled like, there aren't really issues anymore about who does who or how Earth pretty much resolved the whole issues between poor and rich (not meaning that there aren't other issues at hand). The Expanse future is pretty realistic, which means it's sort of between utopian and dsystopian.
The issue is just, that the new Star Trek show itself doesn't look more like The Orville, not that it has to be comedic and truly utopian but it's looking like the Expanse visually, it's just so dark, even in the scenes where lighting should make the room bright it's still dark and everything so far is about war and danger and not about wonder and adventure and of course exploration.
I like that shows today are different from the past, that they are often more serious but with SciFi I agree that there is now a lack of less.. "fun" shows and there is also a bunch that are of course 100% dystopian with barely any hope in them. So The Orville is very welcome and I really hope it will be not just Family Guy in space (while I love Family Guy), not just american style fart jokes but a very nice and humorous mix and at the moment it seems to be like that.
Valeria Caissa well said!
The Expanse is the interim period between our time and the period of, say, the Federation, explaining how stuff like the Federation got to where it is.
Valeria Caissa I agree with you that today's Sci fi (not syfy or whatever) should be "grittier" and more realistic, but don't feel the pessimism about the future is necessary. It does no good (imho) to plan for Armageddon (lest we get what we planned for). I would like to see a future based on Bob Marley's "Until the color of a man's skin is of no more significance than the color of his eyes...everywhere is war". One thing attracts me to Orville, the talk of realistic relations of people of radically different, well everything. Show us that being from different ancestries is easy compared to having different definitions for air. And do it with humor.
"Family Guy in space"? No. I think he pretty much done with that. Fart jokes in space? Maybe, but also much more.
Finally, a normal interviewer. And the directors of this show wow all the greats, amazing
What a wonderful interview. I wasn't distracted by the throbbing lights that give light sensitive people seizures or people in the background that networks assure me are famous for... reasons, etc, etc. The cast was great, the reporter was great, 11 min well spent.
Go Orville!!!! If American networks let you down come to Europe, I am sure you would find one to back up this project, has it is, any time. English language is well spread, we love scifi and have a huge amount of Star Trek fans over here.
GREAT show .I hope it's around for a long time. I absolutely love this show
Thanks to seth McFarlane I have started writing my own show/scripts
Seth McFarlane has weird skills. When he makes something there is no way to know if it will be good, bad or both.
Thankfully the Orville is pretty good.
Øystein A. everything seth touches is a masterpiece
I don’t think he’s ever made anything bad lol
@@THLaunched Have you seen the reviews for A Million Ways to Die in the West? Actually not a terrible film, but the reviews are... Something else.
@@alexhollinghurst3945 yeah but the reviews are mostly from stuck up rich people who rather have the women in the movies they like look like 12 year boys so they're very questionable
I recall when he made such bad jokes at the audience hosting the Oscars they complained! Lol snowflakes
Halston looks really great, and Penny of course is a Goddess.
I think she gives one hell of a bj
🔹️ Seth referring to American shows,however the Brits were doing Sci-Fi/Comedy genre with Red Dwarf in the late 80s/early 90s. Or you could go back to 1960s America with My Favourite Martian & Lost in Space ( which was unintentionally funny with the presence of Jonathon Harris as Dr Zachary Smith )
The Orville is the best!! Man I’ve had a sci fi itch which I haven’t been able to scratch for years, this show finally gave me that sweet relief
“The Orville” is WONDERFUL!
Great writing + superb cast =
BADASS SHOW!
I came across this video randomly (or not, as I was looking at Star Trek stuff and it is related). Have only seen a bit of the first two Star Trek series and like it. From the comments here, it looks like Orville is a winner - and I am glad to try it because I am also tired of "dark" shows/movies. Just look outside if you want to see that as we have enough conflict and strife in our real world. Awesome to have something positive and uplifting for a change!
Loving this show. Keep it coming!
that man on left sounds like Bortus :-D
Fancy that.
@@Superphilipp 😂😂😂
He plays Bortus.
Wow! I have seriously never seen any show where what it said to me lined up so utterly perfectly with what the creators wanted to communicate. O.O These are some mad skills that Seth MacFarlane is rocking here!
greatest show in a long time!
I _loved_ Orville's first season, and I can't wait for its second! Traditionally the second season of shows has usually been the best, so I am looking for even better stuff!
Wow I didn't recognize Bortus until he spoke! Lol
Love this show! And 7:21 I completely agree with Seth! I'm so tired of the dystopian premise. Thank you, Seth
Where can we watch Orville in Australia? Is it also released there on September?
i thought of Galaxy quest when i first heard of the Orville , love both
I loved this show. Plz do Season 4
Love The Orville! Great to see the cast off set :D
great show guys, keep it going and coming.
really enjoy this show, I really hope it gets picked up for more.
Great vid, but I wish they had used lapel mics so I can hear them better
so sad to see star trek go down the drain with their latest shows, but thank GOD for The Orville!!! They’re at least bringing in star trek directors that actually cared about the message.
Just have to say Orville is an amazing show. It's mixes Drama and Comedy in a perfect ratio. The Star Trek we always wanted.
Now looking back from 2022, all these characters on the panel are stars in their own rights. No one has been left behind.
Halston Sage has such a great smile.
Awww... Before they knew how much we would *_FRIGGING LOVE IT!!!_* Orville is the only thing I sit down to _just watch..._ In VR. On the main viewscreen of the Enterprise D Bridge. (Really!)
used to watch red dwarf when i was younger now this got to love comedy in space
I love the show and Mr McFarland more than ever. I close my eyes n think oh Brian has done so well for his doggy self
When will the next season of the Orville be?
Can't wait for season 3 !
The Orville is a great show and I have a feeling it won’t get the runtime it truly deserves. Although I am sad about certain characters leaving .
Loving The Orville. I'm so hoping it has many series...
Hope this show stays on
Yes! Sci-Fi and comedy: My Favorite Martian comes to mind for one! Love The Orville so much! Thanks Seth and entire crew!
The Orville is the best the cast is the best you all rock
Love whatever Seth does.
And they actually have a main cast member who was in Star Trek. Claire was Kasidy in DS9 and she marries Sisko. Love it 💚
lol the tension!
Love Seth for this. STD sucks so bad im glad this is here.!
As much as I love this show, this new Season on Hulu is just spectacular
can't wait for this show
I know, right?
Me TOO! And I never get excited about new shows EVER!
Same with me. By Grapthars Hammer, may the good spirit of Galaxy Quest be with the show :).
I have watched this show, and I have no idea what they are describing. Awesome.
Can hardly wait
The Orville is so silly but it's SO clever! Brilliant I love it!
good interview
The fans have always been there, red dwarf has been airing since 1988
Love the Orville, great show, great cast and great story lines. Support them fox.
My favourite show atm!
The only real Star Trek show at the moment.
Best TV show in ages. You'll fall in love with The Orville and it's characters.
9:09 can someone PLEASE send this memo to Disney and CBS?
Absolutely love this show, exceeded expectations. Thank you very much, Seth MacFarlane. Please season 4 🙏🏾
