Is Orville worth watching?
>>
no
>>
If you have a time machine and forget that fact that Seth Mcfarlane is a trust fund retard industry plant then you could enjoy Orville.
>>
no
>>
Yes
>>
>>217353533
Only if you can tolerate silly humor. It's like TNG but slightly retarded
>>
>>217353533
Yes. The first 6 episodes are bait he put in to fool the suits. Then is basically TNG. The best live action trek this millennium.
>>
>>217353563
God damnit I hoped the jannies tracked you down and hired a hitman on your ass finally.
>>
>>217353533
It was alright, though I stopped watching once they threw it on whatever streaming service it went to
>>
>>217353533
Yes. Its made by Seth Macfarlene and as is known he is really talented. If you dont know he made Family guy.
>>
>>217353796
Calm down Seth
>>
I liked it. It was comfy. Wouldn't have minded a couple more seasons. Overall very safe and harmless but occasionally managed to have something poignant.
>>
>>217353818
Family Dad? Can you speak up?
>>
I wouldn't watch the whole thing but if it's airing on tv and nothing else is on then it's fine for that. Sort of airtime filler show.
>>
>>217353767
Yeah the first episodes are kind of hard to go through since they have too many pointless Mcfarlane jokes, but they drop almost all of them as time goes on.
>>
Remove the dickjokes and it is basically TNG. That's the real issue. Seth clearly wanted to make a proper Star Trek show without jokes but instead could only make a knock-off TNG with dick jokes. That's the issue. Edit out the jokes and it's good. Seth was in ENT so why can't he get the greenlight to do an actual Star Trek show?
>>
>>217353943
there's almost no jokes at all after the first half season or so
>>
>>217353981
and the last season or maybe two of the last don't remember is like 1½ episodes of boredom. stopped watching when those started
>>
>>217353992
The big problem on s3 is Seth´s new girlfriend having a terribly annoying character and not the acting skills to prop it up.
>>
>>217353943
Because he wants to make Star Trek and not NuTrek. Paramount doesn't want tk make Star Trek.
>>
>>217353533
It's fine. It's better Trek than NuTrek, but don't go in expecting something deep.
>>
>>217353943
>Remove the dickjokes
They did though, Season 3 had basically no jokes at all.
It was kind of a shame honestly I thought Season 2 hit a good balance of story/comedy.
>>
>>217353533
I liked it, its like filler tv on a boring weekday
>>
The best joke of all is that a rich guy's self insert fanfiction is miles better than anything the actual trek people are putting out.
>>
>>217353563
Why need a time machine for that?

nepo or not, he's far from being a retard and is very talented
started as an animation runt too
>>
>>217353796
>hired a hitman
That would imply janniggers could afford to pay a hit man with their salary of $0.
>>
>>217353563
That doesn't make sense
>>
>>217353533
It is. If you enjoyed TNG, it doesn't hold a candle to it, but if you itch for Star Trek and can't stand the hot garbage they make these days, it's what we've got.
Comedy's a bit camp, but brief. The child characters suck, but that was always true with Star Trek.

Anyway. Is Orville coming back for a season 4 or not?
>>
>>217354336
Eh, s3e10 is worth it if only for the guest arrival.
>>
>>217354336
Which episodes are you explicitly skipping?
If you're going to watch the show, it's not all that long. But the ones with the kids can be skipped.
>>
>>217357288
>But the ones with the kids can be skipped.
But that's every Isaac episode which is basically the core plotlines of the entire show
>>
>>217357288
>Which episodes are you explicitly skipping?
The ones that I am sure I will never want to watch again.
>>
>>217353533
First season is fun. Second season is boring outside of a couple of episodes. Third season is dreadful with every episode being boring and 90 minutes long.
>>
>>217353533
Not really. It does Star Trek better than any modern Trek shows, but it's so up itself and doesn't know if it wants to be a shit comedy or a shit drama. And every damn episode about the black doctor and her kids or her wanting to fuck the robot, or the episodes about the not!klingon being a faggot, they're extremely bad.

In Star Trek, the messages were usually clever and open to interpretation or had genuine moral quandaries, but in Orville it's just dumb and preachy.
