(Sorry, not sorry for the old yet still valid meme)
I just wanted everyone here to know that !theorville@lemmy.world has been taken over relaunched by me and will become an active community again!
In the name of interplanetary peace, everyone here is invited to sub if you have not already done so and to start posting whatever news/discussion/memes related to The Orville you can think of.
I’m going to add .world’s c/startrek and c/tenforward to the links section of our community and I hope you guys do the same.
Happy Arbor Day! (No, seriously, the 25th of April is actually Arbor Day.)
I didn’t like the humor, but it tones down in each season. By season 3, the humor is about as frequent as a lighthearted TNG episode, and it’s done better.
Doesn’t really matter, because it’s a show pretending to be satire so it could get greenlit. It’s just a TNG-era Star Trek with a different coat of paint. There are a lot of places where it’s doing the same plot as some other bit of Star Trek, except doing it better with more lead up across many episodes.
This is why I found it so boring. Not only was it full of tired McFarland humor but the storylines were just rehashes of old Star Trek episodes. I peaced out around half way through season 1.
