I guess in my mind I didn't really categorize those as sci-fi comedies... more just sitcoms with alien characters.

Which is totally what I expected from The Orville based on the trailers.

Orville renewed

Now that The Orville has been officially renewed for Season 2, I need to catch up on the last few episodes.

Good enough to keep watching.

I am surprised.

I loved the Dr's...

Don't forget the guy in the woods she took blood from.

I hated that episode. Why did we have to watch whiny kids fighting? Kids don't change? They could have showed that in a couple of minutes.

They did. Several times in a row. :-)

Well, if last night’s episode *wasn’t* an episode of TNG...

I've thought about giving the show a try, but am tired of Hollywood jamming their agenda down my throat - and I've heard this show does some of that. Does CP agree?
[Reply]

I wouldn't say they are "jamming" it but they are pushing it. They addressed same sex relationships in a rather unique way though.

There was one episode that was a tad anti-religious (the society entirely contained in a spaceship), but again, nothing compared to TNG where they outright express the danger of allowing religion to take hold on a planet. It seems like the writers are consciously avoiding being preachy so far.
[Reply]

It's really no different than the original Star Trek series, where they addressed racial, political and religious issues nearly every week.

Star Trek has always been a "morality tale", which is why the Abrams produced movies and even Enterprise have missed the mark.

Tried watching this. Couldn't finish the first episode with the mom and two kids crash landing with the robot. Completely unwatchable.
