The Orville Season 2 could be delayed, but it’ll have a few more episodes

TV Guide

"I think it's going to be at least 14,” Seth MacFarlane says of the Season 2 episode order, which is up from Season 1’s 12 episodes. But that 14-episode season will include one episode bumped from Season 1. MacFarlane adds that because of the technical effects, Season 2 might not be ready to premiere this fall.
