Beyond feeling a little disappointed with the last act of the season, the journey is all that matters. And it has been fairly pleasant... [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

Among new Star Trek shows... [the] show that I feel captures the spirit of Star Trek the most is the show that's not technically Star Trek. Go to Full Review
CJ Sheu Review Film Review 08/04/2022
The one masterpiece in 36 episodes, encompassing hard sci-fi deep questions and pulp sci-fi action, is the penultimate one, “Domino.” Go to Full Review

Kurt H. @The_Dark_Lord_of_Dragons Apr 2 C'mon McFarlane get to shooting you have a real gem here! See more Ray K. @RAK713 Mar 14 Hello my name is Raymond. Im 54. Ive been watching SCI FI for 47 years. I have very above average income and an 149IQ. Every attempt my me to post my true thoughts of modern SCI FI gets flagged. Back on topic. Im watching 3.8 episode of Orville. I dare you to watch the series and not lose your mind at this episode. It has its ups and downs but Im glued to the series. My epic descriptions get blocked. I mention the horrible mistake by another franchise. I can't help it. Orville is MUST watch if you're a true SCI FI fan. Watch it and thank me later. Im very happy it got renewed for another season. Just watch it. I have to be careful with what I say or they block it. See more Vipul K @RT47731992 Feb 26 I love this show so much. I really wish they would bring it back. The dynamics between ed,Kelly and the whole crew is just so good. But i do hope they would focus more episodes on first contacts with new civs like they used to do in the 1st season. I mean the Orville is an exploratory vessel, yet they hardly ever do that 🤗🤗......please please please bring it back See more Gino P. @Ginop711 Jan 20 I've been a Trekkie since the first show came out. This follows in many ways, but adds the humor that is rarely seen in Star Trek. Interesting cast of characters and the tension between the Captain and Number One really kept is interesting. I really hope this comes back on, the time between seasons is unacceptable See more HALL 9000 T @Alejandre Jan 12 I really liked this show. I think the performance of the actors are amazing, specially Isaac, Ed Mercer, Kelly Grayson, etc., You can say they really invested time on writing the stories, dialogues, illumination, production, sceneries, everything is just fine. To accomplish this everyone must love what they are doing. This season leave you just wanting to see the next. -Spoiler Alert- This show touches so many themes as AI self-awareness, robot slavement, ethical concepts derived from high technology, the origin of no interference with less advanced alien civilizations, you just find your self immersed on a utopic society beyond greedy, money and working together towards a common goal, giving the best of your self to everyone. The Orville finds the perfect balance between serious topics, comedy, action, adventure. I think it will be part of our culture in the coming years, a Sci-Fi classic. I just can say, you will not be disappointed watching The Orville. Amazing piece of art.
