/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ **8. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

That was my impression at first too. It was during the trek dry spell and I was thirsty for scifi that wasn't marvel, but I was sick of American Dad and the other MacFarlane projects. I was blown away at the actual maturity of The Orville. I spent half of the first season expecting
When it never came, I finally relaxed and could enjoy the show for what it was. Good, enjoyable science fiction that didn't take itself too seriously, but still tried to be real science fiction (you know, like Asimov and Heinlein and gods does it feel weird making that comparison) by asking questions about current society and the future. I'm excited for season 4.
EXACTLY. Especially when they encountered a distortion event that allowed them to see a two-dimensional world, I said out loud "oh wow, when will Stewie and Brian show up?" Then I figured that the alien with the bulbous head would be akin to his counterpart in American Dad, but he's actually just a hilarious addition that highlights how clique-ey most Trek is, with all plot-lines revolving around the senior officers, you're left to wonder about the rest of the crew. It's why I love Lower Decks, because it turns that idea on it's face. But in The Orville, it's more of a nod than the centerpiece. Yeah. Glad I gave it a shot!
