Seth MacFarlane says The Orville has not been canceled, adding the Hulu sci-fi series is "still with us," despite rumors that Season 4 might not happen.
I’m excited for this! I don’t mind longer waits between seasons, but I do feel for the cast and crew having to wait for McFarland to write the episodes himself. But I think I’d prefer to keep the artist tied to his vision rather than handing it over to a board of writers. The universe is large enough, and the technology advanced enough (in the show) that people can change their looks, or be replaced. I’m ready to believe, and watch another season!
Don’t be. Just accept the fact that MacFarlane doesn’t care to an amount he claimed he was caring. He’ll continue to put everything else ahead of The Orville.
I don’t mind longer waits between seasons
Well, I do and there’s a general trend in laziness to make TV shows like they did in the 1980s and 1990s. Streaming gave us customers the option to watch when we want but it gave the producers the loophole no longer care about schedules and it shows pretty much everywhere. Just look how few episodes of Stranger Things or Attack on Titan have been released since the shows launched.

That “artist” thing is an excuse for paid service providers to weasel out of promises to paying customers. When Star Trek was still seriously good, they managed to squeeze out 26 episodes per year. Sure, there may have been the occasional dumb holodeck episode but if it’s only 4 out of 26, nobody really cares.
BS. Had you actually read my comment, you’d already knew that in the 1980s and 1990s TV series had all three but obviously you’ve never watched TNG, DS9, B5, and such which all had plenty of episodes, banging quality, and an annual schedule.

The Orville already had a bunch of writers, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Orville#Episodes.
Would you honestly have preferred that Stranger Things have an annual release schedule?
Good things take time my dude.
Quality, Quantity, Punctuality - pick two
