The Orville Season Two - Thoughts?

I miss Farscape. *wipes tear*

 

[CapnZapp]

Yeah no, fart jokes isn't what I'm talking about.

 

[Morrus]

Yeah no, fart jokes isn't what I'm talking about.

Neither was I. It's shorthand. Colloquial speech.

I like how they try to mix serious with humorous.

And you have to wonder how much additional information the Union got by Lt. Talla taking all those "samples", probe, etc. on the Krill.

I’m sure that in a war which they say has been going on for longer than they’ve been alive, the Union has killed one and checked it out before. The Krill have certainly had human prisoners.

FWIW, I like that they have stated an approximate span for the war’s length, and not just once.

Of course, we don’t know if humans in the Union have longer life spans than people today.

I miss Farscape. *wipes tear*

Watched it last year along with Babylon5. Typing this watching DS9. 90s were golden age for Sci fi Stargate SG1 as well.

Then you will have to explain what you mean:

The fewer fart jokes is why I’m still around. Unlike others I thought the Kaylon two parter was good, but it was no Best of Both Worlds by a long shot. I enjoy the show, but I like it less when they make fart jokes. It undermines the good stuff.

Based on this, your hang up seem quite specific.

Eh. I think it’s pretty obvious what I mean. I don’t feel like explaining the obvious in-depth though, so I guess it will have to remain a mystery.

I do too.

I just find there's something... off, beige, lame... about this aspect in S2.

Like they took the edge off the jokes. Now they're reduced to basically just the level of fart jokes the critics initially accused them off!
