I think a really nice touch at the end was Gordon looking her up on the union database and seeing her old and happy and married to Greg, and she'd become a successful singer.

It was a great idea for an episode even though it was similar to previous Star Trek episodes. Having Gordon sing with her at the end was very cringe worthy, but besides that, one of the better Orville episodes.

Good episode tonight and the seasons stories on the Moclan's and their culture kind of reached a conclusion tonight. I won't go into a huge review, but I really enjoyed this epsiode

Don't forget Ron Canada who I believe has been in every Star Trek show at least once!

Anything is better with Tony Todd in it.


With more Moclan plot lines I thought it was going to be a drag but it was a very good episode.

lol shouldn't we rename the thread, calling this show a spoof still feels quite wrong?

It certainly started out far sillier, but I think as time has gone by that the show has developed its own character and excellent writing and character development to be called a serious show with a bit of humor thrown in.

Yeah, I would agree with that, its not a spoof, its become its own story with its own identity and they dialed back a lot of the humor that they had in the first season

They have gone to far on the serious side. They can't really pull it off with the current actors and writers. They need to find something that is in the middle of S1 and S2.

I do have to say that I'm tired of Bortis and the Maklans. They are riding these guys' stories hard.

We get it. They're weird. Move along.

Problem is that they've created this race that is supposed to oppose humanity's social progress in every way. Bigoted, conservative, patriarchal, etc. So they repeatedly go back to that well to make a message.

I agree, they've spent too much time on these characters and their race. Time to relegate them back to the sidelines as comic relief for a bit.

Give me more Yaphit.

I really enjoy watching this series, but what angers me is I always forget to set my PVR and then go to on demand to watch it and there's only one episode on there. So I've missed a bunch of shows At least have the last 3???

And to my shock, my 9 year old daughter knows most of the words to 9-5!!!??? "WTF? Where did you learn that song?" "I don't know... just heard it a couple times on some Youtube videos"

Honestly there are some episodes that really don't move the needle, though they are important.


There are a couple of things that I'm loving though


Even last night in a episode without a lot of action, when they role out effects they looks so good. I also really like whoever is doing sound direction in this series. From the music in the background, to last night where they really put the emphasis on the Kaylon engine noises during the asteroid hunt, they made their ships sound absolutely evil.


Need more Stair Well.


Its really exceptional how they've surrounded Seth with a really strong cast and it really works, there are times when Seth looks pretty amateur compared to the rest of the cast, but in an add way it works because Eds supposed to be a little bit socially awkward.


I know a lot of you have hated the Moclan storylines, but two things.


They wrapped it up this season with an episode that was very satisfying.


When you seen Bortas and Klyden in the background, they're hilarious, I loved what they were doing in the bar last night, and still loved the nicotine addiction.


The aging difference between young and old Kelly was amazing.


I really love Scott Grimes, and they've matured him a bit this year, but he gets some of the best comedy bits in the series now, and that was a spot that was saved for Ed, now Ed is almost the straight guy.


Talia was a good choice as a replacement though I still loved that last episode with Alara and her farewell was so strong. But Jessica Szohr has done a good job as a older more secure security chief, but I expect that she's going to get shot in the chest again.

If you go to CITY's website, they have the whole season available to watch (everything beyond the current week's episode requires you to login with your cable provider).
