I am unable to understand if this person is lgbt friendly or not. I love The Orville, all 3 season, but it is like the hooker rape sketch in A Million Way To Die In The West. I can't tell of he's supportive or mocking
Based on what I've seen him say in a personal context, he's supportive.
At the same time he also subscribes to the "everything is allowed in comedy" mindset, where a joke doesn't need to have any merit outside of getting a laugh out of an audience.
He’s also a piece of shit to women
I highly doubt the transgender alien child forced to convert for the sake of conformity to their culture was just a bit played for laughs.
Yeah this arc is one adding to my confusion. It can be very supportive, but it is ambigous at the same time.
Did you see the conclusion of that arc in season 3? It couldn't have been more obvious if they tried
He's a comedian. Until they explicitly express an opinion every controversial topic is simultaneously supported and not supported to allow for maximum joke potential.
