Orville Season 2

just got around to seeing the first 3 episodes today and it's more impressive this season with the writing and editing. The humor is a little less jarring but still great at times. The relationship with the Captain and First Officer is WAY better this season, in fact it's been downright interesting. They're doing something off the wall with the security chiefs character this year, shes on the show and contracted but shes going to be in a movie with the kid who plays Archie and has been off filming that and other stuff. Patrick Warburton plays her temp replacement in EP3 and yeah its clearly Warburton by his voice but he's pretty funny and they haven't overdone him yet. Visuals are terrific.

They did a whole episode dealing with Bortis' marital and sexual problems; I love how this show continues to find ways to make you think and feel about things in different ways, a lot like TNG did but able to get the drama out there a little farther.

Every show has standalone plots but is fine with setting up continuing story points which I think is a great idea; TNG was always afraid to do that and it took DS9 to really introduce story arcs to Star Trek.

Actress had contract disputes. She opted for the other show.

She was my fav too followed by Gordon and La’Marr

Too bad.  Interesting that both this show and the show it parodies had their security officer leave the show after one season.

I'd heard the Alara actress and Seth were an item and the Fox network basically let them know that kind of situation in the workplace wasn't going to happen. So she went on to do other shows and they had a great send off episode for her.

Can not verify this, though.

I loved that they tackled pornography. We've already talked to our son about porn but it was a great conversation starter and really showed the concerning aspects of pornorgraphy.

What is there to be concerned about?

    • And I’m fine with that.   But, with an impatient owner….that carries high odds of just him employing a new HC in the not distant future.  The “we will see if the scheme that doesn’t fit our #1 overall pick QB works or not” approach seems like a rocky plan for all.  If I was Canales I would give it shot but demanded I need to be able to sign a legit backup QB in case what I was given just doesn’t work and can transition at the end of the year 
    • That's really unlikely to happen.  The reality is, they are building for what Canales wants to do.  That's what all coaches do.  And if Bryce can't do that, he's another peg that has to be replaced.
    • There is nothing unpopular at all about your opinion. How everything played out on the field backs it up. Bryce starts the season with much fanfare, gives the atl game away, and showed anyone who watched that his arm talent was shockingly bad. bad look, so after a few weeks, the team cooks up a fake injury that nobody saw, presumably to decide what direction to go next. Enter Dalton for one game while Bryce is seen walking comfortably on the sideline, smiling and yucking it up like he’s a 5 year vet.  Dalton performs admirably given the circumstances (please no Dalton ve Bryce retort). The contrast between the two was so strong that it’s still debated today. If Dalton’s performance was similar to what Bryce had done up to that point, I truly believe they would have sat Bryce longer, but it wasn’t.  Dalton relied on vet savvy and a better arm. It’s debatable how many games that gets us. Meaningless to fans, but not to players with serious financial incentives on the line.  What it really was, was a ‘young man (see what I did?)’ playing a grown man’s game, who lacked basic fundamentals and essential physical talent, behind a line that was VERY ill suited for the scheme forced on them, WRs who looked completely confused and unmotivated, with a back stabbing coaching staff in give up mode, GM who I wouldn’t trust to organize my cooking utensil drawer and an owner who meets with coaches every week and tells them which plays he likes and which ones he doesn’t.  Bryce doesn’t get a mulligan, but I’m willing to give him a ‘my bad’ from the team. Last season stunk worse than Bigfoot’s di**. It literally can’t get ANY worse than the unwatchable sh** show that was last year.  I have to see a monumental change in his physical ability and overall confidence. I have to see that he found a laser arm, somewhere, in the offseason, or everything else is irrelevant.
