It's funny, I kept seeing people saying "Don't watch Discovery, watch The Orville" for years. I'm halfway through season 2 of The Orville and it has more relevance and heart to Star Trek than anything Kurtzman shit out.
Because McFarlane LOVES and GETS Star Trek and Kurtzman does not. Also, McFarlane is creatively and comedically talented and just knows how to entertain. And quite frankly the Star Trek licence should be taken from Kurtzman and given to him instead, after he has proven clearly to be the more talented and capable producer.
That’s because “Seth” Trek understands what makes _great_ Sci-Fi: *Exploring the social and moral implications of technology.* Compare and contrast to the dumpster fire of Nu Trek: *Star Trash Disaster:* Dumb action schlock about a Mary Sue wannabe Vulcan having tantrums.
Electric Sheep was the BEST reunion episode especially following the Kaylon War. I actually teared up with Dr. Claire when she re-simulated her date with Isaac. The Orville > NuTrek
@@hirakaiko5570 I loved how they demonstrated how the seemingly insignificant interactions we make can drastically influence a person. How we don't have some deeper innate self that's irrespective of our environment or can be separated from it.
Yeah it’s some ok nostalgia porn. Not that this makes it Star Trek though. I have to say, I never really could get into the show. It was too much a comedy with weird cuck jokes constantly weaved in and plot lines lifted from TOS etc. I want actual Star Trek. And even though Seth seems to be the only one interested in making anything like it, it just doesn’t work for me.
@@rando6836 I avoided Orville for years as I like my sci-fi serious. But credit to Seth he has balanced the comedy and drama perfectly in this show. It has some genuine wtf moments like when the Kaylon execute some of the crew for Mercer trying to warn the other union ship.

Really enjoyed episode 1 of _New Horizons_ so far. They really took their time with scenes. Even on one character in it. We rarely get that anywhere nowadays.
@@greggasiorowski1326 Nobody forces you to like it. Maybe you'd better watch something you actually like instead of complaining about other people's opinions.
The new intro is a lot more "cinematic" than the season 1/2 intro. Even the music sounds more like a movie theme now. They obviously spared no expense. The first episode was great, very character-driven and emotional enough to have my roommate in tears for a lot of it. This bodes well for Season 3, the first "New Horizons" season!
This new opening is amazing. I love it. This show is more Star Trek than Star Trek. Epic and funny at the same time. I'm pretty sure Roddenberry would have loved it
I think Strange New World is pretty solid so far. Though I also believe that we never would’ve gotten SNW if the Orville hadn’t proven there was an audience for a classic Trek series.

Not hating on Norm at all, but I'm fairly certain he was never in the opening credits. He was always credited with the guest stars, if I remember correctly. But I miss him too.
The Orville is like taking the prize horse out of the stable for a ride whilst star Trek Picard and Discovery are the manure and hay being shovelled off the stable floor.
@@reece9004 you allowed to like them. I mean there are some rare moments in those shows that are cool and I know its easy to jump on the bandwagon in deciding STP and STD but if you look at them both critically they not to the standard or overall quality that Star Trek had set previously. The Orville isn't perfect, sometimes it can be plodding and sometimes the characters do stupid things, but the Orville seems closer to the ST ethos and themes than nutrek and in a competitive online media world of depressing, gritty, angst-ridden and political message telling, the Orville just has a little more class and respect for the fans intelligence enough to show you a moral dilemma but not force feed you an agenda, but rather let you ponder it against your own moral codes.

@@SomeOneOneOne I disagree entirely. Only season 1 is highly comedic. season 2 and so far season 3 are quite more mature in more scenes than not and dark and emotional.

Well, The Orville could be called a Space Opera. Love the show, and am in admiration of this amazing opening sequence and the creative geniuses who made it. It should win an award! Thanks to all the talent who created this masterpiece, and to all writers, actors, crew designers who are putting on a really fine show! Love it!
This was a pretty heavy episode. Between the episode of SNW (s01e05) and The Orville S03e01 I felt that the Orville was way more serious and SNW much more comedic even going as far as doing a freaky Friday body swap
This episode was pretty serious compared to previous seasons, but since the episode was about suicide, they probably felt making it filled with jokes like previous episodes would make the issue seem less serious than it actually is. I also have the theory that Seth Macfarlane proposed The Orville to Fox as a comedy so it would get greenlit, but since it's a Hulu exclusive, they get to focus more on serious, darker stuff that they couldn't on Fox.
yep . no easy lazy escapes with a transporter (or constant excuses for why it can't be used) . only more advanced aliens have transporters . more shuttle action is better
@@TheJTMcDaniel highly advanced and hostile aliens, although the Calivon may get into an alliance in the future if a Season 4 is ever made as they see the Kaylon on a similar level of intelligence as themselves, and that this might even prove fatal for the Krill-Moclan alliance
@@MichaelPohoreski : Indeed. Paramount are arrogant arseholes for rejecting Seth MacFarlane's proposal years ago for a Star Trek series under his direction.
It is a love letter of what we have lost and CBS can't bring back because of pretty sad reasons. Orville shows that TNG styled shows work in 2022 and I hope it will last for many more seasons and hopefully even in certain blockbuster movies, toys and games in upcoming decades. It gives me peace and freedom when hearing the fanfare and probably seen this intro over 200 times. If you still get goosebumps, you know they did something right.
Seems like a lot of the flyby shots were lifted from the intro of Star Trek: Voyager. I love it. Shame they didn’t steal the one with Voyager leaving a wake in a nebula.
Season 3 amped up the quality in every single department! And as of ep 1, turned it into the serious trek show I always wanted it to be. Visually, the new designs, models, fx, lighting, and camera work are all a huge step up. Incredible!
Okay, I'm liking this opening more than the first. I think it comes down to the balance between flybys and opening credits. The first one seemed like it was showing one to two ships flying by for each actor's name and it seemed frenetic and a little off-putting to me. This one seems more calm and dignified.
The new ensign is like many characters from the new versions of Star Trek and what this show does is show you how that behaviour would really be handled in proper Star Trek. Which means there is room for the character to grow and self reflect instead of constantly getting their ego stroked
Charly's arc was so beautiful, it was nothing the new star trek could ever dream to achieve. Starting the season with such resentment and hate towards Isaac for being a Kaylon, then growing to bring him back, but its not a sudden change of heart, its due to him being the need of the hour. Then it takes multiple episodes and catastrophes for her to even work with Isaac. The whole arc evenually concluding in her laying her life down to save the entire Kaylon race, going down in history as one of the greatest heroes of the union. All this without constant crying and whining and bitching. It almost makes the characters in NuTrek look like amateur children. Charly's grief and hate for the Kaylon is handled with such grace and care, you feel what she was feeling, even if you loved Isaac to his core, you'd still feel for Charly's loss. And the character is Lesbian, I didnt even realise that until I rewatched it and she mentions only once that her friend may have been more than her friend. Its almost as if you can be a gay or lesbian without constantly bringing it up every 3 minutes!
That's one hell of an intro. A shame trek hasn't been able to do something like this since JJ got his (hopefully tarred and feathered) grubby hands on the continuity.
I hope there is another season, but if there isn't then all I can and I'm sure everyone can agree that Seth blew it out of the water with this one. It's absolutely fantastic, the writing is always top notch, the score. The best shows always end on a high note, rather than keep going until the bubble bursts. This is definitely something I would consider buying the physical media for. It's that good.
Looks like Strange New Worlds and The Orville are reading from the same hymn sheet for their intros. Although The Orville has a slight "Starship Troopers" vibe going on.
SNw can suck a lemon thenwrittings awfull and whatever idiot thought they should use the Gorn a completely unknown species star fleet had never encountered before Kirk's incident as the main badges for a prequel to TOS is an idot who should be fired
It won't ever be Star Trek like I remember it and hold it dear to my heart... but heck, its better than anything they are doing with Star Trek in this century and has great potential. It is actually a rather handsome ship. Seth gets on my nerves, now and then, but He's OK. Some of characterizations are... well, not the greatest, but bearable and I think they are going to even out some as time passes. I am definitely interested. I won't see them on a TV but I'll buy them as a DVD set. Good look, Seth and Crew of the Orville!
The Orville is not as serious as (good/real) Star Trek, but it is just as sincere. Meanwhile, NuTrek is very serious (FEELINGS!) but completely lacking an iota of sincerity.
Somehow, the Orville reminds me of Voyager. Even the ship has similar streamlines (smooth, elegant patterns, delicate but functional, non aggressive design). Like a 90's car design, instead of the aggressive, massive, dull designs of these days.
0:01 - 1:28 "Space....The Final Frontier. These are the voyages of the Starship Orville. Its continuing mission: To continue the sci-fi adventures inspired by Gene Roddenberry's visions. To seek first contacts with new civilizations while having lots of fun. To boldly go where no "Nu Trek" has gone before!!"
To make a comparison to The Man In The Iron Mask, The Orville is the rightful heir to the Star Trek throne; while STD is the evil imposter/ current ruler in-name-only. 🤔🤔
I like the use of more brass horns in the theme. It punches up the tune to sound more triumphant. While the original theme evoked a sense of wonder, this one suggests a call to adventure.
AGREE!
Exactly 👍🏼
The Emmy award winning star Trek composer worked on this show, so of course it'll be a banger.
I haven’t cried this much hearing a tv theme since Star Trek Voyager.
I just like so much VFX in Orville. Normal color grading instead of orange teal, no extensive lens flares and crazy blur. Everything looks clean and easily visible
yes. i hate the depressing blade runner blue filters and dark dingy depressing lighting..
And cheaper too
Most likely
I always disliked that flares, or more like their abuse of using it
Yea gotta suspect an $50 billion Show to look like this
Totally agree, the JJ Abrams Star Trek films sucked for that, nacelle tips that looked like they had anti-retina weapons in them at all times.
It's funny, I kept seeing people saying "Don't watch Discovery, watch The Orville" for years.

“Majority Rules” is my go to episode because it gives the double bird to the people Nu Trek is trying to cater to and that mentality.
That’s because “Seth” Trek understands what makes _great_ Sci-Fi: *Exploring the social and moral implications of technology.*
Compare and contrast to the dumpster fire of Nu Trek:
*Star Trash Disaster:* Dumb action schlock about a Mary Sue wannabe Vulcan having tantrums.

The Orville is not as serious as (good/real) Star Trek, but it is just as sincere. Meanwhile, NuTrek is very serious (FEELINGS!) but completely lacking an iota of sincerity.
This feels like a breath of fresh air in times of Hans Zimmer's orchestra imitations and boring background sound design.
See how easy it is for a show to actually look like Star Trek?
Although i wonder: What's with those green glowing planets you now see everywhere?
Best guess is Krill systems. They’re fond of green and have entered an uneasy alliance with Earth after they gained that common enemy…
I LOVE this genius Series!! 😍😍😍😍
I've just played this one (with the sound off), while the intro to Total Recall original happens in another window, Brilliant!!
Almost perfect. I just really wish they changed/updated those Quantum-Drive sound-effects. Still sounds like a cheap rubber mat being slapped.
One of the best STARSHIPS in the sci-fi universe. A true cult series.
Somehow, the Orville reminds me of Voyager. Even the ship has similar streamlines (smooth, elegant patterns, delicate but functional, non aggressive design). Like a 90's car design, instead of the aggressive, massive, dull designs of these days.
A fitting tribute to Voyager right there! 👍
This show has started so GD strong !! Love it !!
The Orville is better than Discovery, Picard, and Strange New Worlds combined.
'Orville new horizons' 😂
Helm.. set heading to fantastic visuals
0:01 - 1:28 "Space....The Final Frontier. These are the voyages of the Starship Orville. Its continuing mission: To continue the sci-fi adventures inspired by Gene Roddenberry's visions. To seek first contacts with new civilizations while having lots of fun. To boldly go where no "Nu Trek" has gone before!!"
The orville is more star trek then star trek
To make a comparison to The Man In The Iron Mask, The Orville is the rightful heir to the Star Trek throne; while STD is the evil imposter/ current ruler in-name-only. 🤔🤔
Absolutely superb. Very Voyager-esq.
A breath of fresh air... in the vacuum of space. :D
That opening is so Star Trek.
I like the new more theatrical musical score. Much less hurried than season one intro
Great!
Absolutely awesome 👌 xxx
Ooh a proper startrek show!
Very good episode I must say. Deep. Funny moments. 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
