| So....before Columbo/McMillan and Wife/That Cowboy cop on a Horse in NY gathers everyone together to recap who he thinks committed the murder does he walk up and say like 'Hey, could you come to the lounge/library etc in an hour - I have something to discuss?'. At that point, if you were the one who did the murder, wouldn't you just say 'Thanks, see you there' and then run like hell??? |

| Has anyone seen The Orville, Thursday, on Fox? It's got one of the S T N G writers on its board. It takes some good stories and throws some humorous moments in when you might not be expecting it. ... It also gives more "realistic" endings than you might care for. |

| I liked Discovery. The first officer commits treason, kills the first Klingon in over a century, and starts a galactic war and drags in the Vulcans, which may or may not drag in the Romulans in the near future. It was a good setup first episode. |

| For those of you saying you didn't like it, what did you not like about it? The reason I ask is that I am going to be on a show later this week discussing Star Trek and I'd like to have a couple of counterpoints to present from folks who did not like it. |

| Since they are only showing Episode 1 on TV and the rest will be on CBS's streaming service, I did not even bother to watch it. I have no intention of buying their streaming service (at least anytime soon) so I don't have any desire to watch just the first episode. | ||

| Orville is OK. Not great and not terrible either. I agree with some of the critics I've read that the show doesn't seem to know what it is yet. Is it a comedy with some drama or is it a drama with comedic elements? I'll keep watching for now. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by JLS_Comics Time after Archer but before Kirk. Villain is...drum roll....Klingons!! Creatively at its best. Not a new threat? why not? Didn't work all that well for Enterprise. Try a non season threat like the first season of Star Trek. Show some of the different worlds in the federation. Do a different villain. Is this Vulcan before our Spock went to that timeline/parallel world or after? At least they didn't give Spock an older sibling as they were going to....like they did in the movie version. |

| The mention of Orville in England immediately brings to mind the ventriloquist Keith Harris and his puppet Orville- a big green baby duck. | ||

| Seth's jokes don't seem to translate as well to live action as animation but I thought I would give Orville a go. I thought Orville was OK for the first two episodes...but then the third episode comes along and here we go with Seth's infatuation with gender confusion and fart jokes. We have Stewie from Family Guy, Roger from American Dad and now the wanna be Worf, his partner and their baby from Orville. Seth, we hear your cry for help. Do your yourself a favor and get a sex change so you can pursue other comedic avenues. | ||

| ST Discovery is on Space Channel. At least in Canada it is. Space Channel even showed the first 2 episodes instead of only one. First 2 episodes are a prequel. Episode 3 is actually the first episode. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by JLS_Comics I don' like it because it is set in the past. Again, one of the reasons I wasn't too keen on Enterprise. I know the Klingon/Federation conflict will be resolved. I know the Xindi didn't blow up the Earth. I want to see something futuristic, beyond Voyager. Oh, and I'm not subscribing to a streaming service or paying for another service beyond my current cable plan to watch it. |

| Didn't even watch it due to the subscription issue. Like Doc Watson said, I already pay for cable. Now they want me to pay for streaming their service to watch this. Nope. | ||

| Watched it, it was just Janeway and Seven of Nine all over again, with female lead number 2 not as stacked and no male leads. No new ground plowed. | ||

| Watched the first 2 episodes...seems like it has promise. The first were really just setting up the #1 character (Michael for a female name?) for what will follow. I'll give it a shot. I've never been one to get bent out of shape about continuity etc. just has to be entertaining - which this is so far. |
