FOX 2018-2019 Fall Schedule The Orville Premieres Mid-season, Friday Night Comedy is Back

Fox will be shaking things up, making changes on every night of the week next season (expect for Wednesdays as it will stay with Empire and Star). One of the biggest changes is the addition of Thursday Night Football this fall. Seth MacFarlane's The Orveill, which aired this past fall on Thursday, will return to the night after the end of football, following Dec. 30th premiere behind a double header on Sunday.

Another change is that Fox has gone back to all drama Tuesday night after opening up to single-camera comedy block after cancelling all but one of it's single-camera half-hours, LA to Vegas, which will premiere in Midseason. But the network has picked up three new multi-camera comedies, The Cool Kids and Rel and a new season of Last Man Standing, that will open up a multi-camera comedy block on Fridays. It would be the first time since 2009 that the network aired a multi-camera comedy block since airing Brothers and 'Til Death.

The Orville "Old Wounds" Series Premiere

After watching the series premiere of Fox's The Orville, it pretty much delivered what I was expecting, fun, heart and even some mystery.

The show really has this Star Trek nostalgic feeling to it with the twist of what Seth McFaralane bring in with his comedy and drama. This cast along with McFaralane really works and brings so much to the screen that I feel like they are a group that I want to hang out.

I very much enjoyed the first episode of The Orville. I thought it was interresting and hilarious and even engaging at times. Even drew in a msytery of why Ed's ex wife is with him after she confronts the commander about not telling him the reason why she's on the Orville. I thought that was pretty neat and got me wanting to know why.

Overall, I give this episode a 8/10.

You can catch The Orville Sundays at 8/7c on FOX.
