Imagine a TV show that provides ebullient comedy while artfully teasing your brain, all in the span of an hour. A sitcom that uses comedy and science fiction in tandem to discuss major issues troubling our society today. If you are looking for a show that makes you laugh, yet challenges how you view your own society and culture, then I highly recommend you try Foxโs new series, "The Orville!"
Imagine a world where people are no longer compelled to meet the expectations of their biological sex. Women no longer feel pressured to marry, obligated to be mothers, or compelled to be homemakers. Men are no longer pressured to be breadwinners or to meet masculine expectations set by our society...why does this world have to be imagined? Lydia Yuknavitch eloquently explores this in her latest sci-fi novel, Book of Joan.
