Featured review
Welcome Tim Russ
I have always thought that Star Trek: Voyager (1995) was Seth's favorite. The opening montage of The Orville (2017) is a clear homage to Star Trek: Voyager (1995).
I know everyone may not like this episode, there is no "space action". However, I think it is a nice change of pace, where it it more about the way those of the future might see the past.
I also liked the exposition near the end, about people being the sum of their experiences. Well-delivered by Adrianne Palicki.
A couple of side-notes - it seems that in the Orville universe, they currently appear to have the ability to create matter from energy, in their synthesizers, but they do not appear to have matter transporter technology.
Gordon seems to easily adapt to the cell phone user interface. I am not quite sure what that says. Has the cell-phone interface become so intuitive that even those who have not seen it for hundreds of years will be able to figure out what it means? Or slightly horrifying, there is nothing better to be developed?
The scene where Bortus is showing Klyden where all of the hidden cigarettes are located is hysterical. Short but sweet.
btw, I love the smell of un-burned tobacco, but hate cigarette smoke.
Leighton Meester has an excellent singing voice.
