c.grz Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 I liked the most recent episode, it's nothing life altering but I was entertained. I just love how he pokes fun at the crazy plots of Star Trek. He needs to get some "Star Trek" guest stars to poke fun at themselves.

Jim K Global Moderator Posted January 2, 2019 Global Moderator Share Posted January 2, 2019 I thought it was a pretty good episode. Was a bit worried at first ... thought it was headed down the toilet. However, as pointed out by Steven, it had a couple of good character driven plots which I found to be very good. I was relieved the whole episode wasn't about the initial plot. LOC and Steven P. 2 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Son_Of_Dad Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 While I thought it a good episode I also thought it had a few to many plots running, while the A plot of Bortus was on hold between the start and end of the episode we had; The Ed / Kelly & Kelly / new guy romance The Alara / Big head romance Claire's kid getting up to teenage kid type stuff Gordon's pickup advice from John, which I have to admit given those two character I wasn't sure through most of it if John was just pranking Gordon Ed in the shuttle especially cloaking it after he was seen was brilliant!

kjordan2001 Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 (edited) Hopefully now that Ed may have a new love interest, the Ed / Kelly plot starts getting toned down. That's the least interesting part of the series, although I did find the shuttle part amusing. LOC 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George P Global Moderator Posted January 4, 2019 Global Moderator Share Posted January 4, 2019 It was an average start, nothing great but it's season 2, you know what you're in for at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Son_Of_Dad Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 Really ordinary episode just didn't hit the casual comedy moments that come so easily in other episodes. Only laugh I got was Gordon very calmly in front of all the staff mentioning he's handed one out at the start of the day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOC Veteran Posted January 11, 2019 Veteran Share Posted January 11, 2019 I rather loved that episode. I swear if you didn't tell me (and I didn't see some of the weirder things on the show) I'd tell you this was a Star Trek episode. Telling a fairly taboo subject for network TV and making it feel totally human even though aliens are involved - is pure Trek. Kudos to the writers of that episode. Also, gonna hate next weeks episode though Jim K 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you kinda knew it was coming - but only if you had kept up with the cast goings on during the off season. If you didn't, this would have blind sided you as I'm sure it did.

techbeck Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Sucks the character is gone. I liked her and she was a good choice/character on the show. But was funny seeing Patrick Warburton on the show. Wonder if he is going to be a reg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so it would only likely be the next episode as he was introduced last week as the acting security chief. Episode 5 states a new crew member joins and IMDB lists this as the first episode for Jessica Szohr From The Orville Wiki Jessica Szohr was announced as a new series regular on February 12, 2018. Details of her character were kept closely wrapped, though a series of small leaks allowed fans to deduce that the name would be "Talla Keyali" or "Talla Kexali.
