This season has been arguably one of the best written seasons, but it feels like there's a common theme to the episodes:
"Gently Falling Rain" seems to be a commentary on multiple themes: Propaganda, political coups, and abortion.
"A Tale of Two Topas" seems to be a scathing indictment of forced transgenderism on children and a commentary on parental rights.
"Twice in a Lifetime" seems to offer an optimistic view of the post-Covid world as seen in the year 2025.
"From Unknown Graves" highlights the importance of empathy and understanding and trying to find common ground in the face of injustice.
"Midnight Blue" seems to be a commentary on making two many concessions to political allies and being taken advantage of in the name of cultural values (Perhaps an indictment of NATO?), not to mention the heinousness of torturing children
I feel like Seth MacFarlane is the definition of a classical liberal, as in while he is critical of the Republicans, he at least is willing to hear the other side of the story. Remember that he at one time was friends with Rush Limbaugh, and he was one of the first people to call out Harvey Weinstein, just to give an example. I think that Hollywood has forced him to take certain positions as a trade for him becoming the success that he has, but he's subversively fighting back against the system
Anyway, I'd love to hear your thoughts on the matter and see if there might be other examples that might justify this conclusion.
I had to click cause I thought maybe we had a new name for The Whitehouse. The Orville.
