Your thoughts on The Orville?
When I first started this show I found it to be a really awkward mix of comedy and seriousness. It had some jokes thrown it at the most inopportune times as some kind of comic relief from a really serious situation. Perhaps the first half of the first season was actually a bit rough or maybe the show just grew on me, but by season 2 I found myself loving this show.
To me it seems as every bit as comfy, intellectually interesting and even funny as some classic Star Treks while still clearly being its own thing. I wish more comfy space shows like this would get made.
What are your thoughts on The Orville? Also I miss Alara.

Honestly I'll probably be downvoted to hell for this but while I think it's a good next generation clone all the forced homosexuality plots put me off the show they just overdid it imo.
That said I have nothing against anyone I just don't like it to be a constant in my face plot.
"forced homosexuality" that episode where they put Seth McFarlane in a ball gag and made him fuck another dude was bizarre I'll agree with you there. Really didn't even have much to do with the vastness of space now that I think about it.
Nothing against anyone, you just don't want homosexual people to be portrayed on TV shows?
Here's some news, that's something against someone.
That's not what I said they just used the same gay alien plot in way to many episodes I was bored of it.
I strongly disagree with you. There was one prominent homosexual couple on the show and that couple served as an important plot device to make commentary on our society. There were plenty of heterosexual (and even robosexual) relationships that we're just as "in your face".
To me it always seemed nice to see a homosexual relationship placed on the same level as heterosexual relationships. I also thought it was a clever way to discuss homophobia through a lense of heterophobia and to discuss trans issues through a lense of forced transition.
