I just want her to play with my jingle bells.....

Alara best girl

...

...

It's a nice ship

How much of the ship have we seen 5 episodes in?

a jar of pickles, you say?

We saw engineering, Alara's office, and the captains quarters for the first time last episode. Also got a really cool establishing shot of the ship from the outside.

We've seen the Medical Bay, the shuttle hanger, the bridge, and the mess hall.

mega where

did you like the fifth episode? i thought it was fucking amazing

Holy shit, Seth is doing everything right. This is what makes Trek.

Does she view space pornography in the privacy of her own quarters?

Yeah, she's into the real fucked up shit like consensual sex in the missionary position for the sole purpose of procreation

What a WHORE.

>deadpan character showing signs of sarcasm and humor already
why can't seth write and why are his characters already getting flanderized 5 episodes in?

wat lol

the first couple episodes show him as a stoic lifeform who doesn't get human concepts like sarcasm or jokes.

Will they kill the krillkids next episode?

Guess we'll find out.

It could be an episode that activates the almonds on collateral damage. Current international law says you can't target civilians, and you have to take reasonable steps to minimize civilian casualties. Minimize, not eliminate.

For example, what if Mercer refuses to destroy the Krill kids ship for moral reasons, but later on that ship goes on to cause more civilian deaths?

He's had quick moments of personality before like when his f2m wife is watching sound of music - he sighs

I don't remember any part where they said he is incapable of understanding human concepts like sarcasm or jokes. I think he understands it just fine, he just doesn't wear it out in the open for anyone to see.

And if he is starting to show it through more expression, that could just be a symptom of serving on a human spaceship.

so good. if the show can stay at that quality, it will be a hit

so he's evolving?

I'm surprised they have the spiral staircase. Would imagine they use escalators or maybe they have both.

Where the holodeck is?

When they were talking about practical jokes with Issac and mentioned how crashing your bike would be funny he respond that he agreed, which was hilarious too

the trees?

More like adapting. His species is social enough to adapt to social situations. Especially if he is being immersed in a cultural everyday. I lived in Germany for a year, and even then I started to feel myself start to pick up on their social queues and culture. It's part of what makes an intelligent species; adapting to the environment, and that can mean the social environment, not just the physical one.

Nah thats the terrarium.

Where's the holodeck, then...

It's called the Environmental Simulator, and it's the big empty room right next to the Terrarium.

Someone said this show was about a cuckold working with his ex-wife, is that true?

Yes there's more to it than that but you could reduce it down to that.

Thanks, I'll just skip this.

Mercer is not a cuckold.

OK cool. Go ahead and fuck off out of the thread then.

Oh, but the other guy said he was. Which is true?

>triggered

Depends on if your definition of cuckold is
"man whose wife has committed an infidelity"
or
"man who enjoys watching his wife have sex with other men"

He walks in on his wife cheating with alien. He does a 180, divorces her.

There's been no reconciliation of a romantic relationship (the opposite, even).

His wife got BLUED and he immediately dumped her.

he goes and fucks charlie therzon, he isn't clinging on his wife

...

Not sure you understand the definition of the word "triggered" there guy.

I feel like Ed was playing her the entire time.

Here's the empty bridge

lol, you're so clearly butthurt

Sounds like a shitty rom-com. Like something Vince Vaughn would be in.

Why don't you go watch the show instead of dickin' around in here, you might come back saying you like it, or you might not, either way, you are wasting your time in here.

comfy

>the spiral staircase
it's a water slide

...

I like the wood

A cuckold is any man whose wife cheats on him, and it is a more poor reflection on the virtue of wife than it is upon the virtue of the husband.

How old are you?

> a cuckhold is a married man who enjoys/encourages his wife to enjoy sex with other men
Something doesn't add up with yout definition of a cuckold. Ed was and still isn't OK with his ex-wife cheating on him.

Not gonna tell on Sup Forums XD

>enjoys/encourages
No.

That definition is relatively modern. The most common usage of the term has no bearing on the husband's enjoyment.

>it is a more poor reflection on the virtue of wife than it is upon the virtue of the husband
Not really, if he was a real man, his wife wouldn't have cheated on him. It's as simple as that.

>if he was a real man
What's a real man in your opinion and why did Ed deserve it? I'm assuming you're a woman.

wow misogynist

That doesn't matter. The term derives from the common practice by the cuckoo bird of laying its egg in another bird's nest. When it hatches, the baby cuckoo instinctively pushes any of its surrogate parents' natural chicks out of the nest, killing them, and thereby receives all of the attention and care of its surrogate parents until it grows to maturity. It's something like a strategy of mini genocide.

>What's a real man in your opinion and why did Ed deserve it?
Fat.
Can't balance work and personal life.
Makes bad jokes all the time.
Seems like he's at a dead-end career wise, since not-Starfleet only gave him the captain's job out of utter need.
>t. permavirgin and NEET

The designs in this show are terrible.

Interesting. The cuck seems quite alpha.

This is correct. This modern definition is more the definition of a specific type of sexual fetish, than it is of a man being the victim of adultery, as it was previously known to be.

wow misogynist and misandrist

Hey buddy, welcome to the Orville general. Now Tell us what you LIKE about the show.

or are you just here to shitpost? [

Your taste is terrible.

They should actually rename it the JJ bird, or something similar.

>Now Tell us what you LIKE about the show.
>I need a hugbox
>>>r/orville

>t. shitmunching Orville fan

>t. STD faggot

And no, it doesn't seem "alpha" at all. It actually seems quite sinister and cowardly.

awww, see that's too bad, cause now you are just a troll. We could had some fun with you in our thread, but now you in here for no reason but to be mad. Insecurity maybe? If so, why you feel threatened user? Are you mad cause the STD thread is shit, and you want to come here and get some revenge? Who needs the hug now, oh wait, that's cool here you go. *hug*

All better now user. Stay awhile, read some stuff here while you take your shit.

...

That's not Isaac

...

Literally the mom character of the crew.

>judging the alpha of a species with the alphaesque qualities of another unrelated species
wew

Someone said this show was about trans identity issues. Is that true?

there was an episode about an all male species giving birth to a female and giving it a sex change to male so it would fit in.

There was an episode with a female baby that was born from an all male species so it was considered a mutation thus they wanted to alter the baby's sex to male. Of course humans have to make a fuzz about it that its not OK.

Why does he say that every time? Is he trying to make it a catch phrase?

...

Some anons think it's a hilldawg reference.

I just want to cuddle with her by an open fire while chestnuts roast nearby as this song plays in the background.
youtube.com/watch?v=dhzxQCTCI3E

That's disgusting. So this show supports mental illness?

...

oh man that would make this show perfect

Are they on their way to a Trek convention?

The trans species is shown as fundamentally unbalanced, they trashed their planet because they're MGTOW who don't need no wimmin.

You are the worst kind of troll.
This guy's posts are pretty easily recognizable. One post with a set-up question, then follow-up troll responses. Ignore this jackass and maybe he'll go back to his Rick & Morty thread. Or at least step his troll game up.

That's difficult to say since we are talking about an alien species here.

;_;

On the plus side, they are allowed to blow shit up wherever they want.
