Thought the last episode was familiar.

 

I thought that was supposed to be the homage it was making.  First thing I thought of.

So one of the editors/associate producers tweeted this:

One of the models they film with. 

People asked if it was being kept safe for a season 3. 

 

Alternate Timeline Kelly likes showing her cleavage.

This music is giving me Star Wars vibes. 

This thread turned me on to this show. Love it.

The scavenger ship looks like the Tau’ri ships from SG1

Great episode.

Good use of alternate timeline without being cliche. Enjoyed it a lot 

At least we already got an episode explaining what bortus was doing for 9 months alone. Simulator sex fantasies!!

She also likes to be on top. 

That was a great episode, and glad my confusion at the end of last week's completely made sense.  I think the Star Wars vibe was intentional.  The multiple quantum drive failures at critical moments...the asteroid and ice canyon chase scenes...all  that was needed was a "jumping to hyperspace ain't like dusting crops, boy."   

Plot - Star Trek Voyager

Music - Star Wars

Ship designs - Stargate

Homages to Firefly (scavengers/Reavers who eat you), Star Trek Beyond (ship coming out of the water), Star Wars (asteroid and ice canyon chase), Andromeda (ship at the edge of the black hole/time dilation), Futurama (how much pressure a ship can withstand under water) 

At least they went out with a bang IF its not renewed.

Is this one of those crack ships I've been hearing about?

Some SeaQuest DSV as well.

Pretty sure it's a lock. If FOX doesn't pick it up someone will.

I thought it was really cool beta secretase ended up being what didn't allow the memory wipe to take hold. Elevated levels of the protein have been found in late-onset Alzheimer's patients, and the biologist in me started geeking really hard when I realized what they were doing with it! (I do have some questions about whether or not the synthesized version would be able to cross the blood-brain barrier, but different question for a different day.) Just wanted to say that I love these little details! Can't have scifi without a little science, after all. :)

Andre Bourmanis was the science expert on TNG. His job was to translate the "technobabble" notes in the scripts into workable science. They would literally write the word "technobabble" and he had to figure out the science to make it work. It's one thing that made Trek so amazing. 

Andre is now a producer, writer and science consultant for The Orville.

In thinking about it, if you’re gonna pay tribute to Yesterday’s Enterprise, you’ve got to bring back the security chief/actress who left the series.

‘The Orville’ to Move From Fox to Hulu for Season 3

Seth MacFarlane’s “The Orville” is on the move.

MacFarlane announced Saturday at the show’s San Diego Comic-Con panel that Season 3 of the sci-fi series will air exclusively on Hulu rather than on Fox as it has for its first two seasons.

According to an individual with knowledge of the situation, MacFarlane’s current workload and the length of time it takes to finish work on the show’s numerous special effects sequences would have meant that Season 3 would not have been ready for a midseason debut. New episodes are now expected to launch on Hulu at the end of 2020. The streamer currently has the first two seasons available to subscribers.

 

“’The Orville’ has been a labor of love for me, and there are two companies which have supported that vision in a big way: 20th Century Fox Television, where I’ve had a deal since the start of my career, and Fox Broadcasting Company, now Fox Entertainment, which has been my broadcast home for over 20 years,” MacFarlane said in a statement. “My friends at the network understood what I was trying to do with this series, and they’ve done a spectacular job of marketing, launching and programming it for these past two seasons. But as the show has evolved and become more ambitious production-wise, I determined that I would not be able to deliver episodes until 2020, which would be challenging for the network. So we began to discuss how best to support the third season in a way that worked for the show. It’s exactly this kind of willingness to accommodate a show’s creative needs that’s made me want to stick around for so long. I am hugely indebted to Charlie Collier and Fox Entertainment for their generosity and look forward to developing future projects there. And to my new friends at Hulu, I look forward to our new partnership exploring the galaxy together.”

“The Orville” is a live-action, one-hour drama set 400 years in the future that follows the U.S.S. Orville, a mid-level exploratory spaceship. MacFarlane also stars in the series along with Adrianne Palicki, Penny Johnson Jerald, Scott Grimes, Peter Macon, J Lee, Mark Jackson, Chad L. Coleman and Jessica Szohr.

It is produced by 20th Century Fox Television and MacFarlane’s Fuzzy Door Productions. The series was created and written by MacFarlane. MacFarlane, Brannon Braga, David A. Goodman, Jason Clark, and Jon Cassar serve as executive producer on the series.

In the wake of 21st Century Fox-Disney merger, 20th Century Fox Television became part of the Disney empire, while Fox Entertainment became part of the standalone entity Fox Corp. Shortly after the merger closed, it was announced that Disney would assume full operational control of Hulu and that within five years, Comcast has agreed to sell its Hulu stake to Disney for at least $5.8 billion.

End of 2020? God damn 

Look on the bright side - be glad Hulu grabbed it. Better budget, less 40 min time constraint. No retarded breaks bc of Olympics/Playoffs/NCAA tournament/etc.

On the other hand, it was already renewed and I don't want to pay for Hulu.

I was uneasy about the Disney transition.  I feel like it’s safer on Hulu than on Fox proper.

I’ve been rewatching. Really holding up as a Trek-y show. Compared to Discovery

How is that Orville and Lower Decks are the best Star Trek in recent years (until Strange New Worlds comes out)?
