STA copied the whole "artificial lifeforms cut off from humans sending envoy to see if humans will be friend" idea. Orville did it better.

I enjoy the Orville but let's not get too uptight about where the sci-fi ideas come from. Especially since the Orville is literally Seth MacFarlane's powdered TNG substitute.

It’s microwave reheated TNG.

It's "I Can't Believe It's Not TNG".
