The Orivlle Season 2

[HMS Invincible]

All I know about this show is it's a Seth McFarlane product which is enough for me to stay far away from it. Then I randomly saw one clip where this one human had a leg removed in his sleep and said some robot did it. Then it cut to that robot, and the robot said "Ha, ha. Got you."

That actually made me laugh. Is the rest of the show of that quality?

The quality varies and I think the second season is better than the first. Overall, it's worth a watch.

Hit and miss. Issac is the robot in that scene, and he's part of the whole show, and gets many similar comedic lines. He and another alien crew member have some of the best humor in general, but some of the other stuff isn't quite so good.

I'm also watching ST:TNG when I can, so I'm getting a lot of it from Data, too.

Though Data had a better romantic subplot than Ed did with Kelly.

Well, Data was fully functional. Ed has a broken logic circuit.

[Aotrs Commander]

Isaac, though, is doing better than Data in that regard...

At least explicitly. I mean, really, Data may have been going all the time.

Show

Following up a natural 20 with low single digits. I mean, it's wasn't date-rape episode bad, but...

I know immediately as soon as they walked on the shuttle that he did it, as she was the weapon. I was only wrong in the she was biological, not psionic in nature, but I called iright away.

Too obvious, guys, way too obvious.

That sort of plot has been done before all too many times in too many shows to be able to play it straight.

That's episode 10,FYI Blood of the Patriots. I think it was better than the star trek ENT version.

*skulldesk*

Typo, fixed, just in case.



See, I knew I'd seen that plot on Star Trek before...

Finishing up Season 2 of Orville with the wife.

Last episode of the season, Grayson is REALLY tits out. And, like, she doesn't have the kind of boobs that just DO that. It's really, really, evident that this is an effect they worked for. I like boobs, and I like the actress, but, wow, this is a wardrobe mistake.

[DigoDragon]

I finished Identity part 2 over the weekend. Wow, that was a heavy two-parter. Wonderful pair of episodes.

Spoiler: Identity 1 & 2

Show

So now we have the Borg equivalent on the playing field. And as others previously said, the ship to ship combat was excellent!

Poor Issac though. Being exiled from his world isn't nearly as bad as losing the trust of his friends in my perspective. It'll be a while until *I* trust him.

Is there another episode, or are you referring to the big battle at the end? I didn't remember weird boobs in the big battle.

[thorgrim29]

Her whole Firefly cosplay outfit has way over the top cleavage... actually I'm not sure that even still qualifies as cleavage at that point. It really stuck out to me too (ba dum tish) since I'm not used from The Orville and Agents of Shield to seeing the actress' boobs that much but looking at a few runway photos of her it looks like this is her. Also she's apparently engaged to Scott Grimes AKA Malloy.

The end of Season 2, not the end of Season 1.

Show

In the penultimate episode, they accidentally bring a younger version of Grayson forward in time from a few years ago... from just after she met Ed. While on board, she learns about their relationship and its failure and, though they try to mindwipe her before she gets sent back, it fails because of [Tech]. She then decides to reject Ed's request for a second date, setting up an alternate timeline.

In the last episode, it's Ed and Malloy on board a shuttle. The Kaylon weren't stopped in this timeline, because Grayson didn't get Ed command of the Orville, and the captain of the Orville wasn't able to stop the Kaylons because Isaac didn't have a relationship with Dr. Finn, because Dr. Finn only came on board the Orville because Ed was there. Grayson, who remembers everything, has a [Tech] way of fixing things that involves sending Dr. Finn back to make sure the mind wipe works. But, for the entire episode, she's wearing generic-space-mercenary clothes with the buttons undone to her sternum and the collar of her shirt apparently sewn to her armpits, resulting in a "Hey, here are my boobies" that in no way looks like clothing being worn by a person.

Here is an example


This isn't really how clothes WORK, especially not with her build. Which means it was a choice made by someone.

[HMS Invincible]

It appears I'm seriously behind on the Orville...

*watches last two episodes of season 2*

*skullpalm*

Kelly, you blithering idiot.

[Legato Endless]

To be fair, Kelly could not have predicted that her romance was obnoxiously key to the survival of life in the galaxy.

[DigoDragon]

I don't know that any of us could have.

[Aotrs Commander]

You. Don't. Frack. With. History.

I mean, seriously, Ed even said they had ACTUAL LECTURES on this crap and she did it anyway.
