The first several episodes of Orville I’ve described as “what if Star Trek had dick jokes and occasionally tapped the well of ex-wife jokes”… but yeah, I loved that too.
Yeah. I mean I’m not against juvenile humor. The Orville definitely hits that chord well. It’s kinda like family guy in space but without the idiocy of Peter griffin.
But a good example was I watched s1e4 moist vessel last night. Beyond the ridiculous plot narrative with mariner the backup narrative was about the green person just not able to control themselves, being entirely in appropriate and rude, then wandering across the room to look at the shiny thing and causing chaos etc etc. this turns into the backup plot of trying to fix everything that could have been prevented with 5 minutes of self control. I finished the episode but it was hard. That type of behavior is no endearing at all to me. In fact it’s kinda exhausting.
Yeah, that’s the worst Tendi gets in the whole series. She usually has excellent self control.
