[CaptainCrunch]

Great season ending episode, now we wait for a renewal.

Spoiler!

I was partially right, Kelly turning down the second date lead to Ed becoming the Captain of a star base, and a different captain on the Orville who allowed the Kaylon to attack and cruelly destroy the earth.


In order the save the original time line Claire has to go back in time to fix the mind wipe on Kelly and hope that she has a second date with Ed.


I loved the pacing of the episode, the jeopardy scenes with the Kaylon were fast paced and well done. There were two shout outs to Star Wars, one with Yaphet doing the door thing ala ROTJ, and the asteroid scene chase.


The effects looked really good in this episode and the music when the Orville rose from the bottom of the ocean was very Wrath of Khan.


It was good to see Aliria again, though she was the jaded freedom fighter.


They had the false finish with the time warp going wrong and the orville exploding and the scene going black for several seconds. But in the end Kelly accepted the mind wipe and the second date with Ed.


Overall I liked this season, but the Finale was really well done and tense and well acted.
