Oh boy, I can't wait for the episode where Q turns himself into a pickle!
Star Trek
Oof M'Ress there has seen better days
>a pickle
You wound me, user.
Do the creators know their project is doomed? How could they not have known in advance that it was a terrible idea?
Why is it doomed? I like the concept.
These are the ensigns.
Why are Cyborg and Beast Boy there?

What's that? You want some more?
Who's the Barjoran daddy
I don't care anymore. Whatever. Maybe someday star trek will be good again.
He just did this so he would fit in Picard bum
Look at that Beefcake. Beefstew would be proud
Nobody has any idea what to do with Star Trek. It’s too difficult to write for and way too slow for modern TV. It really was a moment in time.
I don't know what that is but it's not a caitian. Maybe a related species that is plantigrade and lacks a tail, but not caitian.
I hope the cat old lady gets a lot of porn and has the same expression during and after the sex
What worries me more is the creator saying his starting idea/elevator pitch was "A show about the guy who takes the 'yellow disc' into the back of the replicator so a banana pops out the front"
If you can't even remember what a fucking replicator does you probably shouldn't be in charge of a Star Trek show.
The Orville showed how much people crave the old TNG format. Its writing was pathetically stupid in what I almost think was a miscalculated move to broaden appeal rather than actual incompetence, but people were just so happy to have a hopeful sci-fi show that they didn't care.
why is that dude wearing a scouter?
They will make a Vegeta joke.
I think he’s supposed to be a Bynar?
Season 2 got a lot better.
I hold the opposite opinion
How does a replicator work then? Magic?
Not Magic gashead, mathematics and that is why antiquity chose me. Sorry I had to finish the quote
There's no "in the back" because it's not a room, it's a tiny device. There's no "yellow disc" because it's not a rehydrator, it's a replicator. It's a little fucking box that turns electricity and waste matter into pre-arranged matter profiles.
Replicators also do more than just make food. They also provide all the breathable air in the ship.
The problem with The Orville isn't even the writing per say, it's that it lacks any real self identity. It's not a TNG parody anymore, it's just MacFarlane's fan fiction.
Hard disagree there. I think being TNG fanfiction was exactly what it wanted to be and what people were expecting from it.
The problem, in my eyes, was 100% the writing and casting. The few episodes where they tried to get any deeper than "man religion makes people crazy huh" or "social media is dehumanizing" were fumbled hard. The time travel episodes were particularly terrible.
>There's no "in the back"
>It's a little fucking box
Little fucking boxes still require maintenance.
>electricity and waste matter into pre-arranged matter profiles
>They also provide all the breathable air in the ship.
That's literal alchemy. Do you even believe in science?
>Little fucking boxes still require maintenance.
Cool, that has nothing to do with the showrunner thinking that replicators are a fucking room where you put in yellow discs to get bananas like some kind of holodeck-sized Keurig.
>Using warp fields to arrange matter into a pre-arranged lattice is alchemy
You might want to look up what that word means
It was never good as a parody. The humour was the worst part of it. Yes it is fanfic but better that 99.9% of the comics and books anyway. And The Orville comic continues the trend of bad Trek comics.
And yet the managed to do gender episodes far better than TNG, Ent and Voy did.
