    I really didn’t expect The Orville to feel so much like watching the Star Trek series from the 90s (TNG, Voyager, DS9). I thought with Seth MacFarlane it’d be a lot more Family Guy than Trek, but it’s QUITE Trekky. Yes I know, I’m quite late to the party

    It’s been crazy to see the state of the industry fucking things up for even the most stalwart animated series. Even Simpsons/Family Guy are getting smaller episode runs for new seasons! I wonder if the South Park guys would ever just buy the rights to SP and go indie. They could probably afford it.

    Hazbin Hotel beating out Invincible, Simpsons, Family Guy, and South Park is a big deal for. It shows people wanted this series, people are watching it, and that an indie series with no established history can achieve something. I hope future indie shows are able to achieve the same.
