The Orville - Season 3 - Moving to Hulu

Jul 21, 2019

The Orville is moving to Hulu for the upcoming third season per The Hollywood Reporter. The drama will return in late 2020 on the streaming service. Hulu has been the SVOD service of the sci-fi dramedy for the past two seasons.

Seth MacFarlane noted that the production demands of the increasingly ambitious space dramedy made delivering the series to the network for its planned midseason debut impossible.

"The Orville has been a labor of love for me, and there are two companies which have supported that vision in a big way: 20th Century Fox Television, where I’ve had a deal since the start of my career, and Fox Broadcasting Co., now Fox Entertainment, which has been my broadcast home for over 20 years. My friends at the network understood what I was trying to do with this series, and they’ve done a spectacular job of marketing, launching and programming it for these past two seasons," MacFarlane said. "But as the show has evolved and become more ambitious production-wise, I determined that I would not be able to deliver episodes until 2020, which would be challenging for the network. So, we began to discuss how best to support the third season in a way that worked for the show. It’s exactly this kind of willingness to accommodate a show’s creative needs that’s made me want to stick around for so long. I am hugely indebted to Charlie Collier and Fox Entertainment for their generosity and look forward to developing future projects there. And to my new friends at Hulu, I look forward to our new partnership exploring the galaxy together."
