A few months ago, I posted something about The Orville here. I wasn't sure if I would like it or not at first. The first episode was so-so. I had expected a pun-filled, Family Guy-like comedy and was curious why there wasn't many laughs (a few chuckles, that's all). So then came the second episode: Imagine my surprise as to how much I enjoyed it, wow! Here was a Star Trek-like episode with a few comedy moments sprinkled in (not to mention the "surprise twist" at the end)! Okay, now that was good! Up next, the third episode: Again, not expecting much, I watched and this time was thoroughly entertained! Wow, this was the Star Trek (TOS) that I knew and loved! Absolutely GREAT episode, with an ending I was kind of thinking they'd do, but didn't think they would do since it's supposed to be a comedy. Anyway, I am LOVING The Orville! I hope the ratings pick up because this is a WAY better Star Trek than I've seen in decades! Speaking of Trek, I FINALLY saw Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan in the theaters last week (limited engagement at Cinemark)! One word: AWESOME! ...or should I say, "KHAAAAAAA-AAAA-AAAN!"?

I'm months late to the party, as usual. We FINALLY watched the first episode of The Orville and I liked it quite a bit. I thought it was going to be Star Trek - Family Guy style. It turned out to be a love letter to Star Trek with some jokes thrown in. We're probably going to take a break from our Deep Space Nine rewatch to binge The Orville this week.
