I was actually shocked that they did this... introducing a new character (who looked set to be a long-time player in the series), and then kill her off within a single season. A heroic sacrifice, for sure, but still. For me, Charly was rather unlikable at first... but after a few episodes, she came around and I was really starting to like her, especially after seeing the Kaylon's builders and her finally warming up to Isaac. I don't know if Anne Winters was supposed to do more and either didn't enjoy working on the show, or if fans weren't warming up to her, or whether this was supposed to be the plan all along... but it's such a shame to lose her so soon.
It's hard for them to kill off a character like Charly based on fan feedback, when this was all filmed as a single season over many months lol. Meaning that by the time Season 3 Episode 1 aired, the rest of Season 3 had already been finished filming and editing. So clearly, her death was planned right from the get go. I still find it sad. But hey, it's Sci-Fi and Orville, they could always come up with other reasons for Anne Winters to return. Such as this explosion sending her to something something sci-fi and thus survived, or they could do an alternate timeline version of Charly (like they did with the Orville crew in Season 2).
@@spacecraftcarrier4135 That... is a very good point that I didn't consider XD Honestly, given her backstory, I think it would be an injustice if they did do a deus ex on her death, retconning it for the sake of bringing Anne back. They could likely have her come back if it was in a flashback, or as part of the simulator, etc... but I think having her death nullified would be a bad thing to do.
As cynical as this may seem, one person's sacrifice for peace does make all the difference and it echos reality all too well. I would like to think this was part of a bigger plan. However, if there was an end to come this is a perfect one. Sadly we won't know if Amanda had really liked her or if this was suppose to be. I guess in the end we really don't have that much time and should cherish it more. Finally, coming to peace with your hatred and letting go is a continued message on the Orville which is completely profound to say the least.
In his eulogy for Charly, Isaac should've concluded w/this line: "Of all the souls I have encountered during my service aboard the USS Orville, hers was the most.....human!!" #RIPCharlyBurke
This was honestly one of my favorite characters and her arc felt too short. She didn't really have character development, which actually makes this scene make more sense. Abrasive and Stern to the end. Unshakable
Original star trek danced on the line between comedy and drama all the time- and I consider Orville to be the rightful heir to what Roddenberry created. Discovery, lower decks and Picard are junk.
I think there is way, to bring back Ms.Charly Burke, by showing a variant of her, who is from a different realm. I imagine in the realm, variant of Ms.Charly Burke, her female best friend Amanda is alive. I also imagine within that same realm, Ms.Charly Burke, told her friend Amanda, about her secret feelings for her. I imagine that Amanda responded, that she was both surprised, and flattered, but she doesn’t feel the same way for her. Amanda goes on saying, that she is straight, she has always only been, interested in boys, and she is dating a guy she likes allot right now. In addition I imagine, that Amanda variant, is a super genius scientist prodigy, whose I.Q. is much higher, than the older adult scientists.
I have only seen The Orville on TH-cam but everything that has been down loaded does not give the impression that this is a SyFy comedy. So, many of the down loads are violent and tragic.
LOL!!! Was Charly suppose to "grow" on me?? Cause I can tell ya right now, I did NOT like that character at all. Not talking about the actress, here. I'm mean Charly. She just came off as an annoying, petulant child. I just didn't get onboard with the whole 'Amanda' thing. And her lines...*sheesh*. Her lines were so generic, it was painful to hear her speak them. I don't know. I would have to say that the biggest fail this season was Ensign Burke.
Ironic: From my perspective she was one of my favorite. Like, I love the world-building that exists within the show, but most of the characters on the Orville crew, I don't care much about them. Charly is one of the few I found to be likeable.
Yes she did they made it clear that only Isaac or her can tamper with the machine as of that moment since it was just created and if tampered with would automatically activate it was a security measure just in case
This acting is so bad, lmao. The death of Grodin in Stargate Atlantis on the satellite was vastly better played and written, and he wasn't even a real side character, lol.
'I'm here Amanda'....one of the most heartrending things I've ever seen.
She wasn't even sure if Amanda felt the same way 😂
@@Mcjiggy507 Yup! "I'm here Amanda!" "Best friend ever! Wanna meet my BF?!"
@@Mcjiggy507 that's what makes it a true lesbian relationship
@@Mcjiggy507what if Amanda did. That might be why Amanda sacrificed herself for Charly
I am here Amanda. If this is all we get of Orville. Then it was one hell of a good ride.
3:02 the reflection in her gaze is one of the most gorgeous VFX shots I've ever seen. Whoever came up with that idea, DAMN! Well played!
3:00 "I'm here, Amanda."
This season is perfection, I'm not sure if it'll be outdone, but I hope so

From the inside of the episode... Seth always new the ending with this character.
@@AdsForAdults That's good. I'd hate for them to write off a new character just because fans didn't like her or anything.

This was amazing did not expect this
One of the best science fiction sequences made in the first quarter of the 21st century if not the best.
best scene in the whole show, she deserved it for getting my boy isaac to unalive himself
Shut the fuck up.
It wasn't even her. If you'd watched the show, you would know what brought it on , and her Character development.
Thank you charly
Poetic scene in season 3
In his eulogy for Charly, Isaac should've concluded w/this line: "Of all the souls I have encountered during my service aboard the USS Orville, hers was the most.....human!!" #RIPCharlyBurke
It has a bit of Data in Star Trek Nemesis feel to it.
Only she doesn’t have an android twin to download herself into.
Goodbye Charly Burke
Well this helped to get the alliance done

What episod thes? In session 3

The orville was never 100% comedy I rank it up the with so of my all time Sci fi shows
Is this even a comedy anymore
Original star trek danced on the line between comedy and drama all the time- and I consider Orville to be the rightful heir to what Roddenberry created. Discovery, lower decks and Picard are junk.
After the second season they switched to more drama because they felt keeping it as a comedy first wasn't sustainable.
I am literally on Episode 4 of Season 3 and you put that in the title? Dick move.

Season 3 is grim compared with most of first two seasons.
This should of been the season finale
Wooden reader of lines was written out.
Agreed. Never liked her character or the way she acted.
A fake lezzy moment hahah
This is what happens when you date Seth and he's done with you.
You're thinking of the other one.
