It was actually decent. Not as bad social justice wise as some here have feared.
Also what's funny is the main ''bad guy'' T'Kumva who is the jet black Klingon leader of the puritan house, gets BTFO by a white Klingon from what the produces described as the Klingon equivalent of Ireland and Iceland mixed together.
>African Klingon believes himself to be the second coming of Kahless but it's actually Voq pic related the ''white'' Nordic/Irish klingon. Also no social justice shit from Michael shes decent thus far, Voq, T'kumva and Lorca steal the show.
I'd give what I saw 7.9.
Aiden Cox
They with a straight face call a woman Michael?
Xavier Reyes
Why not? I called your mom that last night
David Gray
But would you pay to see it?
Ryder Wood
What do you think of The Orville?
Jace Richardson
True Star Trek fans hate Drumpf and voted for Hillary
Adam Bennett
Did you vote for Drumpf? If so, fuck off!
Leo Peterson
Is it kino?
Isaac Ramirez
Does it "feel" like trek?
Hunter Watson
Yeah the basic Trek feeling is there. But there's also a lot of difference. Don't go in expecting anything similar to TNG. It's DS9 mixed with band of brothers.
Joseph Ramirez
are there any waifus?
Aaron Walker
Saru
James Gray
City people love Star Trek. Only rural and suburban retards like Star Wars.
Liam Scott
>Ireland and Iceland mixed together.
But we're nothing alike
Jeremiah Taylor
To rest some worries only the puritan Klingons are bald, there were Klingons without ridges and ones who looked similar to worf and a 8 feet tall breed.
After the premiere the producers explained the different Klingons are from different climate planets
White Klingon's are from a world with ancient Nordic and Irish flavour material.
Purple Klingons are based on Ancient persians
Puritan Klingons are greek and roman.
Thomas Price
Nordic and Gaelic visual aesthetics are quite similar.
Jack Martin
ha that's actually not a bad explanation, kind of like how if humans lived in low G they'd get all lanky
Isaac King
>heh, got any more edges?
Christian Collins
Pretty neat, see all the background stuff in Trek cant be faulted, its hard to fuck it up, its what theyll do with the story of each episode is where they can mess up, even with such material to work with.
Cameron James
good to hear they avoided the homogenic alien race meme
Brandon Edwards
I guess the hairy ones genocide all the rest by TNG era?
Robert Hall
The white Klingons are discriminated against by the black/Brown and purple Klingons. Voq is treated like shit by T'kumva because he has light skin, the white klingons are called ''devils' i'm not even joking.
Brody Parker
Let This Be Your Last Battlefield, now with an $8.5 million budget
Gavin Mitchell
>white ones are call devils But they don't look anything like Klingon devils
Ryder Mitchell
...
David Kelly
does the chinese captain die in the first or second episode?
also no muslim or trans characters?
Chase Thomas
better than STD for sure. there's no comparison
Isaiah White
...
Thomas Thompson
>dude sgi lmao fuck off retard, it's a mid budget tv show.
Joseph Allen
Worked for Elliot in Scrubs. What I'm worried about is how she's supposed to be Spock's adopted sister, but that reads like a bad fanfic.
Parker Jones
Giving the pretty boy of the show a beard was actually a big risk, bigger than the all the diversity shit they are pretending Star Trek didn't already do, but I wouldn't have it any other way.
Jaxson Rodriguez
So the white ones are black and the bla k ones are white
Nathaniel Jackson
OP, is it ever explained why the uniforms don't match those in 'The Cage'?
Jason Parker
What is Jason Isaacs role on the show?
Tyler Nguyen
To be the Patriarchy
Michael Ramirez
i thought star trek was about trekking thru the stars
Nathan Butler
Bump because I'm desperate.
Nolan Howard
More information please? Does Michelle Yaoh die in the first 2 episodes? Is her ship destroyed? What brings the main character to the Discover?
Is it odd having POV character be not the captain? How's the humor/quiet moments -- the trailers look all tense brown doom and gloom -- how does that compare to the every-day character stuff?
Also how are the other regular characters (the redhead lady and the blonde gay guy)?
Xavier Miller
I can't wait to steal this show, watch it in total, shit post about how bad it is, and watch CBS go out of business and have to fire Les Moonves out of a canon.
Levi Rivera
So much this.
They have turned the commercials for this up to level 11 but it is DOA because nobody even knows CBS has a Netflix rip off.
Jason Jenkins
It's only DOA in America. In the rest of the world it'll do fine.
Camden Price
Netflix paid a bucketfull of money for international distribution. I'll be pirating it too but I can't imagine Netflix wouldn't pick it up for season 2 if CBS cancels it for not broad enough appeal (as they did with Supergirl). It's a CBS production so they'll make money producing it and Star Trek is a big moneymaker in syndication and DVDs (it's one of the most populer netflix offerings).
Plus all the reactions to the 2-hour premiere that screened last night in LA have been extremely positive, so it's not like CBS will cancel due to it being a dud in ratings and creatively.
Jason Cruz
in all seriousness though, we can't let him get his hands on the quantum torpedoes
Christian Ramirez
Everything about this looks so bad. I'm glad that real Trek fans have the Orville.
Luke Rivera
orville minus the cucked divorce shit and it would be off to a better start imo
Sebastian Adams
(((Les))) (((Moonves))) will be fine, hew jewed Netflix to pay for most of it.
