The latest episode of The Orville (with Charlize Theron) was the best one yet. It had several funny bits and a clever storyline. It bothered me at first they promoted the show as a parody but to be honest I like the direction they are heading with slightly more serious plots. I feel like one of the Pi guys except I'm dumping on the Star Trek thread with The Orville. ;D |

No the Orville is a superior show in that it understands the genre and goes with it. Now if only the acting and writing were on par with a contemporary scifi show it'd be perfect. As someone who's digested every single solitary episode of star trek and all the spin-offs, and the movies, and a decent chunk of the comics and books, the stories on the Orville are just a tad predictable. They are taking bits and pieces from previous Star Trek episodes, particularly TNG, and turning them into their own work. Then again, that can be said for practically every scifi show as TNG literally invented modern science fiction.... I just wish they'd be a bit less obvious about it. Totally saw that amputated leg bit btw... I still laughed, it was damn funny. Lt. Commander Data inspired humor is the best. The prop guy needs punished though.... the leg they found was a full leg, while in the previous shot we see that it was amputated at the knee. |

The Orville is getting better with each episode. I like it. |

I've seen the first episode of the Orville and while I can appreciate what they are trying to do, I found the juxtaposition of the story and setting with the attempted humor a bit off-putting. It felt like a show that didn't know what it was trying to be, and MacFarlane's non-sequitur style of humor wasn't particularly fitting. I feel like if they could even out the tone of the show, it could really be something great. Guess I should watch more episodes and see where it goes... |
