The Orville: New Horizons premiere spoilers: First look at ‘Electric Sheep’

The Orville New Horizons

Given that The Orville: New Horizons is slated to premiere on Hulu in just one week’s time, isn’t this the right opportunity to dive deeper? We certainly think so.

For those who want a few more hints about the first episode back, let’s just start off with this: The title for the premiere is “Electric Sheep.” We do tend to think this is a reference to the novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?, and the fact that the Kaylon are front and center here could serve as a larger clue. The Kaylon were a huge part of season two, and they were also the central adversaries of the two-part “Identity” story, one of the best overall things that the show brought to the table.

Want to get a few more details now about what the story will be? Then check out the full synopsis below:

The Orville crew deals with the interpersonal aftermath of the battle against the Kaylon, facing the difficult consequences.

Since the show has been off the air for such a long time (and has a new subtitle, no less), we do tend to think this episode will be a reset-of-sorts to everything that we’ve seen. We will have an opportunity to learn a little bit more about some of these characters and thanks to that, a chance to better understand how their relationships will change over time.

Based on most early news that we’ve heard, this season will be bigger and more ambitious than ever, a result that comes in part from the move over to Hulu. We’re confident that it will prove to be worth the wait, especially since season 2 was such a significant evolution of what we saw the first time around.
